About this study

Official title: Association of the Systemic Immune-inflammation Index (SII) and Severity of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most serious metabolic complication of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Insulin deficiency and inflammation play a role in the pathogenesis of DKA. The investigators aim to assess the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) as a marker of severity among T1DM patients with DKA and without infection.

Read the detailed description

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is one of the most severe acute metabolic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). Therefore, DKA patients require prompt treatment and any delay in identifying severe DKA cases can lead to worse outcomes. DKA provokes a systemic inflammatory response through increased levels of various cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-8, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and IL-1B. This will lead to cellular activation, cellular adhesion, increased oxidative stress, and endothelial damage, possibly contributing to complications. Consequently, surrogate markers of inflammation and immune status may help in the early identification of patients with severe DKA.

The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) had a better prognostic value compared to NLR and PLR among cancer patients. Recently, studies have suggested a link between SII and increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), hepatic steatosis, and worse outcomes among hypertensive patients and patients with stroke.

Therefore, the investigators aim to examine SII as a marker of severity in T1DM patients with DKA in an uninfected state.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetic Ketoacidosis, run by Jahra Hospital at 1 site in Kuwait.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Kuwait. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SII (time frame: Day 1 (baseline)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06251895, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Feb 2024.
