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.

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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This observational study in Jakarta will test whether a smartphone facial scan can accurately estimate blood sugar and HbA1c levels without needles. Researchers will compare the scan results with standard lab blood tests in 300 adults, with or without diabetes. If accurate, this technology could make diabetes screening simpler and more accessible in community settings.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) facial scan
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a needle-free, low-cost way to screen for diabetes and high blood sugar in community settings.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. The technology may not be accurate enough to replace standard blood tests, and results may not apply to all populations.

Who can take part

Who is studied

The study population consists of adult individuals aged 18 years and older residing in a community setting in Jakarta, Indonesia. Participants will be recruited through community-based health activities and primary care services. The population includes both individuals with and without a prior diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus, representing a general adult population for glycemic screening. Eligible participants must be able to undergo both non-invasive facial scanning using remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) and standard laboratory blood testing. Individuals with facial conditions that interfere with signal detection, inability to remain still during scanning, or incomplete data will be excluded.
