Blood clot cells may reveal hidden inflammation in diabetes
NCT ID NCT07363122
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares blood test results from 200 adults with type 2 diabetes to healthy people to see if platelet size and activity are different. Researchers will also check if these changes are linked to inflammation markers and blood sugar control. No treatments or extra procedures are involved—just one routine blood draw.

Who is studied
200 adults aged 30-70 years recruited from Assiut University Hospitals and clinics: 100 with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, diagnosed ≥1 year, fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL or HbA1c ≥6.5%) and 100 healthy controls without diabetes or major illness. Both groups undergo single assessments of platelet indices (MPV, PDW, P-LCR, PCT via CBC), inflammatory markers (hs-CRP, ESR), and glycemic parameters (fasting/postprandial glucose, HbA1c).
