About this study

Official title: Potential Correlation Between Heart Rate Variability With Cardiovascular Risk at Different Stages of Metabolic Syndrome: Impact of Some Antidiabetic Drugs

The study aims to assess the beat-to-beat Heart rate variability (HRV) in different stages of metabolic diseases, including pre-diabetic and diabetic patients, compared to non-diabetic individuals.

Heart rate variability will be compared for some antidiabetic drugs used in different stages of metabolic diseases and correlated to different metabolic and inflammatory mediators.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • heart rate variability testDiagnostic test

    Also called Cardiac autonomic reflex tests (CARTs), blood tests

    First, the patient is required to lie on their back to have a 5-minute continuous ECG recorded, without performing any maneuvers.

    Following this, deep breath test, Valsalva and stand test are performed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Beat-to-beat Heart rate variability

    •It will be measured Different stages of metabolic diseases among non-diabetic, diabetic and prediabetic subjects

    Measured: one year

  2. body mass index

    Measuring body weight in kilograms (kg) and height in centimeters (cm) to calculate the Body Mass Index (BMI) in kg/m^2, a key indicator of healthy weight that can help identify potential health risks.

    Measured: one year

  3. Valsalva ratio

    The Valsalva ratio is the proportion of the highest and lowest heart rate during and immediately after performing a Valsalva maneuver. A value of 1.21 or more is defined as a normal response

    Measured: one year

  4. Stand 30:15 ratio

    The Stand 30:15 ratio is the ratio of the highest heart rate during (occurring approximately 15 sec after the initiation of standing) and immediately following standing up from a supine position (occurring approximately 30 sec after the initiation of standing).

    Measured: one year

  5. deep breath test interpretation

    The heart rate response to deep breathing test was calculated as the difference between maximum heart rate during inhalation and minimum heart rate during exhalation.

    A difference of 15 beats/min or more is considered parasympathetic activation.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Framingham risk score (FRS)

    The Framingham risk score predicts cardiovascular disease risk in asymptomatic patients. The risk is considered low if Framingham Risk Score is less than 10%, moderate if it is 10% to 19%, and high if it is higher than 20%. Heart rate variability (HRV) may be correlated with the Framingham risk score when analyzing the effects of different anti-diabetic drugs. It is expected that if the Heart Rate Variability decreases, the Framingham score will increase, indicating a higher risk of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular disease risk in the next 10 years. Conversely, if Heart Rate Variability increases, the Framingham score may decrease, indicating a reduced risk of Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk.

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, run by Alexandria University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hala A. Abo El-Hassan, MSC (002/01114851485, hala.aboelhassan@pua.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Beat-to-beat Heart rate variability (time frame: one year). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06305195, which also lists 3 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 12 Mar 2024.
