Trial summary

Diabetes in an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke, whose associated mortality rate is higher and sequelae more serious than for nondiabetics. Diabetes increases the risk of stroke or death after surgical carotid revascularization or endoluminal angioplasty. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Diabetes and Stroke: Does an Excess Risk of Hemodynamic Cerebral Ischemia Exist?

Diabetes in an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke, whose associated mortality rate is higher and sequelae more serious than for nondiabetics. Diabetes increases the risk of stroke or death after surgical carotid revascularization or endoluminal angioplasty. It is, with contralateral ICA occlusion, 1 of the 7 factors doubling the stroke risk after carotid endarterectomy. Diabetes also enhances the cerebral hemorrhage risk associated with carotid surgery, thrombectomy or thrombolysis revascularization of the cerebral arteries.

This study was undertaken to examine whether the hemodynamic cerebral ischemia (HCI) frequency, which increases stroke severity, is higher in diabetics than nondiabetics and, if diabetes carries an excess HCI risk, whether it is independent of contralateral ICA occlusion.

Read the detailed description

Embolic and hemodynamic mechanisms are the main causes underlying ischemic strokes of carotid origin. The hemodynamic cerebral ischemia (HCI) risk depends on the contribution of the contralateral internal carotid artery (ICA) and vertebral arteries via the circle of Willis, the ipsilateral external carotid artery via the ophthalmic artery and the leptomeningeal arteries. During carotid surgery, impaired collateral flow is associated with the need for shunt insertion.

When HCI is present, cerebral perfusion is initially maintained by vasodilation of precapillary arterioles and the increased extraction coefficient of oxygen. Secondarily, vascular reserve exhaustion by degradation of arterial lesions engenders a loss of cerebral autoregulation, ischemic penumbra and cerebral infarction.

Carotid revascularization with an incomplete circle of Willis enhances the postoperative ischemic stroke risk. The loss of cerebral autoregulation, attributable to HCI combined with ipsilateral carotid tight stenosis, heightens the risk of hyperperfusion and cerebral hemorrhage.

Carotid occlusion is the primary cause of HCI. Carotid occlusions and tight stenoses lead to loss of cerebral autoregulation and cerebrovascular reserve, and have been associated with a 4-fold-increased stroke risk.

What participants receive

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

  • carotid clampingProcedure or surgery

    Occurrence of consciousness perturbations, language difficulties and/or contralateral motor deficit during the carotid-clamping test and requiring shunt placement.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
DiabeticsDiabetics patients who underwent internal carotid artery surgery
Receives: Procedure: carotid clamping
NondiabeticsNondiabetics patients who underwent internal carotid artery surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Intolerance to carotid clamping test

    Occurrence of consciousness perturbations: patient loses consciousness

    Measured: During clamping test

  2. Intolerance to carotid clamping test.

    Language difficulties: the patient no longer answers questions

    Measured: During clamping test

  3. Intolerance to carotid clamping test.

    Contralateral motor deficit: anesthesiologist request to shake hands.

    Measured: During clamping test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carotid Stenosis, run by Institut Mutualiste Montsouris at 1 site in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 7 May 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 France. 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?

Intolerance to carotid clamping test (time frame: During clamping test). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 May 2024.
