About this study
Explore the characteristics of TCM syndrome elements and distribution patterns of syndrome types in comorbid populations; Screen for "high-risk syndrome patterns" and frequently co-occurring complex syndromes; Identify characteristic syndrome patterns at key stages: acute phase, recovery phase, and upon occurrence of endpoint events; Investigate the temporal evolution of TCM syndrome patterns and the disease-syndrome correlation patterns in comorbid patients.
Read the detailed description
A registry study of 12,000 real-world patients with comorbidities is conducted to collect and investigate the epidemiological characteristics of populations with "Tang-Nao" (diabetes with cerebrovascular disease), "Tang-Xin" (diabetes with cardiovascular disease), and triple comorbidities. Through syndrome epidemiology surveys, multi-timepoint cross-sectional investigations on the TCM syndrome of "Toxin Damaging Collaterals" are performed to explore the characteristics of TCM syndrome elements and distribution patterns of syndrome types in comorbid populations, screen "high-risk syndromes" and frequently co-occurring complex syndromes, identify characteristic syndromes at acute phase, recovery phase, and upon occurrence of endpoint events, and investigate the evolution of TCM syndromes and disease-syndrome correlation patterns in comorbid patients.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| T2DM-CVD, T2DM-CeVD,T2DM-CVD&CeVD | T2DM-CVD: Type 2 diabetes with ischemic cardiovascular disease (coronary artery disease/heart failure), excluding cerebrovascular involvement. 2. T2DM-CeVD: Type 2 diabetes with ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ischemic stroke/TIA), excluding cardiovascular involvement. 3. T2DM-CVD\&CeVD: Type 2 diabetes comorbid with both ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pattern (or Syndrome) Evolution Law in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Based on the TCM theory of "toxin-damaged collaterals," this outcome measures the dynamic changes in syndrome patterns (including qi deficiency, phlegm-dampness, heat-toxin, etc.) and their transition rules in patients with comorbidities. Assessment will use a standardized "Toxin-Damaged Collaterals Syndrome Collection Form", integrating four diagnostic methods (tongue coating, pulse, symptom scores, and syndrome differentiation results) at multiple follow-up time points to quantify syndrome evolution trends.
Measured: Baseline (enrollment, T0) and follow-up at 3 months (T1), 6 months (T2) with data collected through clinical visits and standardized syndrome assessment forms.

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?
Pattern (or Syndrome) Evolution Law in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) (time frame: Baseline (enrollment, T0) and follow-up at 3 months (T1), 6 months (T2) with data collected through clinical visits and standardized syndrome assessment forms.). 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 5 Aug 2025.
