Trial summary

Preoperative carbohydrates (CHO) supplement has been shown to alleviate postoperative insulin resistance (IR) in nondiabetic patients undergoing a variety of surgeries. However, it remains controversial whether preoperative CHO could yield similar effects in diabetic patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Pre-operative Oral Carbohydrates on Insulin Resistance and Postoperative Recovery in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Preoperative carbohydrates (CHO) supplement has been shown to alleviate postoperative insulin resistance (IR) in nondiabetic patients undergoing a variety of surgeries. However, it remains controversial whether preoperative CHO could yield similar effects in diabetic patients. Thus, the investigators design a randomized controlled trial investigating the impact of preoperative CHO on postoperative IR and clinical outcomes in diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The results of the study may give some clinical implications and further improve perioperative care for diabetic patients.

Read the detailed description

CHO supplement has been widely investigated in nondiabetic patients undergoing various surgeries. It has been proved that preoperative CHO could alleviate postoperative insulin resistance (IR) and improve patients' well-being in nondiabetic patients. However, whether preoperative CHO could yield similar effects in diabetic patients remains controversial. Till now, seldom has the administration of preoperative CHO been investigated in diabetic patients and few studies reported IR and postoperative recovery of diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The investigators present a prospective, single-center, single-blind, randomized, no-treatment controlled trial of preoperative CHO on diabetic patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). A total of 62 patients will be enrolled and randomized to either Group CHO or Group control (CTRL). Patients in group CHO will receive CHO fluid containing 50 g of carbohydrates the evening before surgery (20:00-24:00) while their counterparts in Group CTRL will be fasted after 20:00 the evening before surgery. The primary endpoints are postoperative insulin resistance (IR) assessed via homeostasis model assessment (HOMA). The secondary endpoints are the potential mediators relating to IR including inflammatory factors and stress reactions assessed by serum cortisol. Exploratory endpoints are in-hospital clinical endpoints.

What is being measured

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

  1. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: Before anesthesia induction

  2. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: Immediately after surgery

  3. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  4. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: The second morning after surgery

  5. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: The third morning after surgery

  6. Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR

    HOMA-IR = [blood insulin (mu/L) × Blood glucose (mmol/L)]/22.5

    Measured: The fifth morning after surgery

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Interleukin -1 (IL-1)

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  2. Interleukin-6 (IL-6)

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  3. Interleukin-8 (IL-8),

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  4. Interleukin-10 (IL-10),

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  5. Tumor necrosis fator-α (TNF-α)

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

  6. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)

    Inflammatory factors

    Measured: The first morning after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing carbohydrates in people with Insulin Resistance and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Peri-operative Change from baseline HOMA-IR (time frame: Before anesthesia induction). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Sep 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
