Check blood-flow pressure in teens with diabetes or obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study uses a special noninvasive test to measure blood-flow pressure in children and teens. It aims to see how these measurements differ in teens with type 1 diabetes and in teens with obesity, which may help improve understanding and care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 12 and 19 years old
- You have type 1 diabetes OR you are in the obesity group
- You should not have type 2 diabetes
- If you are in the type 1 diabetes group, you should not also be classified as obesity

This study tests a simple, noninvasive technique (photoplethysmography) to measure blood flow in the legs of people with type 2 diabetes. It may help doctors better detect and monitor peripheral artery disease (PAD), a condition that narrows arteries and can lead to leg pain or poor healing.
This study looks at how metabolism and inflammation relate to diabetes risk in teenagers. It may help researchers understand why some teens develop type 2 diabetes.
This study looks at how blood vessels and blood pressure change in children soon after being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. It may help doctors better understand early vascular risk and how to monitor it.
This study tests a new non-invasive blood pressure device in babies, children, and teens. It compares the device's readings to those from an arterial line, which is already in place for their medical care. The goal is to see if the device can measure blood pressure accurately without needles.
This study looks at high blood pressure in children and teens. It aims to understand how to manage it in young people under 18.
This study looks at using a finger-prick test instead of a standard blood draw for the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which measures how your body handles sugar. It may help young people at risk for or with early type 1 diabetes avoid repeated needle sticks.
