Tests blood vessel changes in kids soon after type 1 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be 8 to 18 years old
- Be within 14 weeks of a new type 1 diabetes diagnosis
- Be able and willing to have a non-invasive test of artery stiffness for about 1 hour
- Be able and willing to wear a 24-hour automated blood pressure monitor
- Have no other major hormone, metabolic, or heart-related conditions (besides type 1 diabetes)

This study looks at how blood vessels and nerves work in people with Type 1 diabetes compared to healthy volunteers. It may help explain how diabetes affects heart and blood vessel health.
This study measures how “blood fats” move in the body after fasting and controlled eating, comparing people with type 1 diabetes to those without diabetes. It may help researchers understand diabetes-related differences in lipid (fat) handling and improve future treatments.
This study looks at how bones grow stronger in children with type 1 diabetes compared to typically developing children. Researchers will measure bone strength using special scans and other simple tests.
This study looks at how well your blood sugar stays in the target range and whether it's linked to the health of your blood vessels and heart. You would use a continuous glucose monitor, and the results may help improve care for people with type 1 diabetes.
This study tests whether using an automated insulin delivery system (a smart pump that adjusts insulin based on sensor readings) can help improve blood sugar control and bone health in adults with Type 1 diabetes who have high and unstable blood sugars.
This study looks for early signs of long-term complications in children and teens who have type 1 diabetes for more than a year. It may help your clinic spot problems sooner, when treatment could be easier.
