Blood sugar and stroke outcomes over one year
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study watches how blood sugar levels affect recovery and risks over one year in people who come to the ER with a stroke. It aims to help doctors better manage blood sugar during emergency stroke care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had stroke symptoms (like face drooping or arm weakness) that started within the last 24 hours.
- A CT scan confirmed you had a stroke (not a different problem).
- You are older than 40 years.
- You do not have conditions like diabetic ketoacidosis, bleeding in the brain, or a recent mini-stroke.
- You were not already bedridden before the stroke, and you don't need help with daily activities.

This study looks at people with diabetes to understand how diabetes complications are linked to heart and stroke risk. It may help doctors better predict risk and guide prevention in the future.
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 uses blood tests to quickly identify the type of stroke in patients arriving at the emergency room. It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment early on.
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks blood sugar levels) in people who have had a stroke and also have type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see how well the monitor works and if it helps manage blood sugar after a stroke.
This study compares giving insulin early versus waiting a bit to lower blood sugar after a severe stroke. It may help understand the best timing to treat high blood sugar in this situation.
This study looks at how people recover after a stroke. Researchers will check your thinking, memory, and daily function over a year to learn more about recovery patterns and help design better treatments.
