Blood sugar study after a new heart attack
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study measures how your body handles sugar and related hormones in people after a new STEMI heart attack, and compares them with people who do not have diabetes or have prediabetes. The goal is to better understand metabolic changes after the event, which could help future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 80 years old
- You recently had a STEMI heart attack (new onset)
- Your HbA1c is below 9.0% (a blood test that estimates sugar control)
- You must be able to give consent and be medically stable (not sedated)
- You cannot be pregnant
- You should not have a serious ongoing infection, cancer, heavy immune-suppressing medicines, or major kidney/liver/heart disease

This study looks at how the heart uses energy fuel in people with heart failure, including those with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand what’s going on inside the heart and how it could be treated in the future.
This study looks at how insulin resistance affects recovery after a heart attack or unstable angina in people without diabetes. It may help understand why some patients have worse outcomes.
This study compares short-term outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes who have a heart attack and receive a stent, depending on whether they were taking insulin or oral diabetes medications before the event. It aims to see if one treatment leads to better recovery.
This study tests a new way to measure blood sugar using an ECG (heart signal) sticker. It may help people with diabetes, chronic kidney disease, or those without diabetes monitor their glucose without finger sticks.
This study looks at how insulin resistance affects blood flow after a common heart attack procedure (stenting) in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help doctors understand why some patients have poor blood flow after treatment.
This study looks at how inflammation and blood cell counts are related in people with diabetes who have a heart attack and are treated with a stent. It may help doctors understand how to better care for these patients.
