NCT ID NCT07556497
First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looks at why people with type 2 diabetes often develop heart problems. Researchers will collect blood and urine from 90 volunteers—some with diabetes and heart disease, some with diabetes only, and some healthy—to study special cells called endothelial progenitor cells. The goal is to understand how these cells become dysfunctional and how inflammation plays a role, which could lead to better treatments in the future.

What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It is small (90 participants) and early-stage, so findings may not lead directly to therapies.
