Clinical Trial Summary

This is a prospective and observational study in patients with type two diabetes. The study hypothesis is that chronic hyperglycemia causes an increase in the microcirculation on the carotid artery wall and retina, evaluated by angio-OCT. Furthermore, the reestablishment of normoglycemia would decrease this microcirculation, which could trigger hypoxic and ischemic changes, accelerating preclinical atherosclerosis. The study goal is to describe the microangiopathy in both territories in patients with type two diabetes and chronic hyperglycemia, and to evaluate changes after the reestablishment of normoglycemia.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a prospective and observational study in patients with type two diabetes. The study hypothesis is that chronic hyperglycemia causes an increase in the microcirculation on the carotid artery wall (evaluating vasa vasorum by contrast-assessed carotid ultrasound) and retina (evaluated by angio-OCT). Furthermore, the reestablishment of normoglycemia would decrease this microcirculation, which could trigger hypoxic and ischemic changes, accelerating preclinical atherosclerosis. The primary outcome is to describe the microangiopathy in both territories in 20 patients with type two diabetes and chronic hyperglycemia (basal), and to evaluate the changes after the reestablishment of normoglycemia (at 1, 3 and 6 months). Additionally, clinical, laboratory, diet and biomarkers will be evaluated. ;
