About this study

Official title: Associations and Plausibility Among Left Ventricle Diastolic Function, Serum Uric Acid and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Individuals With Cardiometabolic Risks - A Prospective Observational Study

Metabolic syndrome and hyperuricemia were both associated with inflammation, leading to diversities of cardiovascular disease such as left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, but the relationship among these entities remained unclear. The aim of the present study focuses on the association among hyperuricemia, diastolic dysfunction and inflammatory biomarkers in apparently healthy individuals with metabolic syndrome

Read the detailed description

Apparently healthy individuals with metabolic syndrome were prospectively and consecutively enrolled since August 2017. Blood samples were obtained after participants are fasting for at least 12 hours, including serum uric acid, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, high-sensitivity interleukin-6, tumor necrotizing factor alpha, fasting glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, insulin, lipid profile, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, sodium, potassium, and calcium. All echocardiographic parameters were measured in accordance with the American Society of Echocardiography guidelines.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Left ventricle diastolic dysfunction with elevated left atrial pressure

    The contemporary definition of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction with elevated left atrial pressure is mainly >50% positive of the following criteria: (1) average E/e' ≥14 (2) left atrial volume index >34 ml/m2 (3) tricuspid regurgitation velocity >2.8 m/s

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. high-sensitivity C-reactive protein

    determined by Latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric,ADVIA 1800,ADVIA Chemistry XPT,Dimension RXL,SIEMENS,AU 640,Beckman Coulter

    Measured: 1 week

  2. high-sensitivity interleukin-6

    determined by elisa enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, R \& D system

    Measured: 1 month

  3. tumor necrotizing factor alpha

    determined by elisa enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperuricemia and Metabolic Syndrome, run by National Defense Medical Center, Taiwan at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The study interest was reached). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricle diastolic dysfunction with elevated left atrial pressure (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2018.
