Insulin's role in non-diabetic heart attack patients
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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 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.
This study looks at how insulin affects blood vessels in people with obesity compared to healthy weight adults. It aims to understand early blood vessel changes that may lead to heart problems, which could help improve prevention and treatment.
This study looks at how insulin affects blood vessels in people with obesity compared to healthy weight adults. It may help understand why obesity increases heart disease risk.
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 whether insulin resistance (when the body doesn't use insulin well) is linked to poor blood flow after a stent procedure in people with type 2 diabetes who have had a heart attack. It might help doctors understand why some people have worse outcomes after this treatment.
This trial compares how well people with type 2 diabetes recover after a heart attack treated with a stent procedure, based on whether they were on insulin or oral diabetes pills before the heart attack. The goal is to see if one type of diabetes treatment leads to better short-term outcomes.
