Gene link to ICU blood sugar problems found
NCT ID NCT03055169
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether certain gene changes (in the TCF7L2 gene) make ICU patients with organ failure more likely to develop high blood sugar. Nearly 1,000 adults in the ICU were checked for these gene changes and their blood sugar levels. The goal was to understand the link, not to test a new treatment.
