What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study looks at whether large swings in blood sugar levels during liver transplant surgery are linked to a higher chance of developing infections within 30 days after the operation. Researchers will review medical records from 240 adults undergoing elective liver transplants, tracking blood sugar variability and any infections like pneumonia or surgical site infections. The goal is to see if this routine measurement could help predict or prevent complications.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If a link is found, it could point to tighter blood sugar control during surgery as a way to lower infection risk after liver transplant.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it can only show an association, not prove cause and effect. Other factors could also influence infection risk.
