NCT ID NCT03202823
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how diabetes changes the way certain fats (arachidonic acid) are processed in fatty plaques that build up in the carotid artery. Researchers compared plaque samples from 204 diabetic and non-diabetic patients undergoing surgery for carotid stenosis. The goal was to understand why plaques in diabetic patients are more inflamed and prone to rupture.
