Wilson's disease heart risks under the microscope
NCT ID NCT05493605
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether Wilson's disease, a condition where copper builds up in the body, also damages the heart. Researchers will monitor 150 adults with Wilson's disease using heart scans, blood tests, and long-term heart rhythm recorders. The goal is to find out how often heart problems occur and what they look like, which could improve future care.
