DüsseldorfAges 20–85 - NCT05946785RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of blood-vessel changes after gestational diabetes
This early-stage study looks at how “oxidative stress” (cell damage from stress molecules) may affect small blood vessels after pregnancy, especially in people who had gestational diabetes. The goal is to better understand what’s going on and whether these changes could be linked to future health risks.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–50 - NCT05965336Recruiting
Walking test study for nerve damage in diabetes feet
This study looks at how well people with diabetes-related nerve damage (diabetic peripheral neuropathy) can walk, using a treadmill and walking distance tests. It may help improve understanding of walking limits and how to measure change over time.
Pensacola, FloridaAges 45 years+ - NCT05915260Enrolling by invitation
Heart MRI study in adults with type 2 diabetes
This study uses a heart scan (MRI) to learn more about how the heart is affected in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers better understand changes in the heart over time and who might benefit from future care.
SlagelseAges 18–80 - NCT05911256Enrolling by invitation

Compare procedures to improve heart blood flow in diabetes
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—stent placement (PCI) versus bypass surgery (CABG)—in people with diabetes and significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease. It looks at outcomes using both standard heart tests and additional imaging/functional measurements to guide the best revascularization strategy.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 20 years+ - NCT05838287RecruitingPhase 4
Pioglitazone for heart failure with preserved pumping in type 2 diabetes
