Study of blood vessel damage in type 1 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how type 1 diabetes affects small blood vessels, especially in the eyes, kidneys, and feet. It tests a special camera and other devices to see how severe the damage is, which may help doctors find better ways to treat complications early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 45 years old (or up to 60 if needed).
- You have type 1 diabetes. Some groups need certain complications, but others can have no or mild complications.
- You cannot have a current infection, inflammation, pregnancy, or breast-feeding.
- You must be able to understand study information (no severe cognitive or language barriers).
- You cannot have scarred or damaged skin in the areas the study devices will check.

This study looks at small blood vessel disease (microangiopathy) in people with type 1 diabetes. It will use special devices to examine your skin and blood vessels to understand how diabetes affects them.
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 closely follows people with type 2 diabetes who have early signs of diabetic retinopathy (damage to the retina from diabetes) to see how the condition changes over time. It does not test a new treatment but monitors the eye's health closely. It may be a good fit if you have diabetic retinopathy that does not need immediate treatment.
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
This study offers a structured education course and regular checkups to help adults with type 1 diabetes better manage their blood sugar and overall health. Participants will learn about their condition and receive support to improve metabolic indicators.
This early study looks at how “autophagy” (your body’s cell recycling process) relates to small blood-vessel problems in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand mechanisms and possible future treatments, mainly for people who meet specific health and medication criteria.
