Silent artery risk: new study screens diabetic kidney patients for hidden heart danger
NCT ID NCT07266220
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will use a safe ultrasound test to look for early signs of artery hardening in 96 adults who have both type 2 diabetes and stage 3 chronic kidney disease. Many patients with these conditions develop heart problems without symptoms. The goal is to find out how common these hidden artery changes are and how they relate to kidney function and blood sugar control, which could help doctors prevent future heart attacks and strokes.
