Blood test may predict heart attack danger in diabetics
NCT ID NCT07155395
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will enroll 1,000 people with diabetes who are having an emergency procedure to open a blocked artery after a severe heart attack (STEMI). Researchers want to see if certain blood markers of inflammation and clotting can predict complications like heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms, or death. The goal is to find a cheap, quick way to identify high-risk patients early.
