LTD Trial Summary

This trial will compare how type 1 diabetes affects apolipoprotein and triglyceride levels, which are risk factors for heart attack and stroke.

Who is the study for?
This study is for adults aged 18-45 with Type 1 Diabetes who haven't had severe hypoglycemia recently, are on a stable insulin regimen without other diabetes meds, aren't obese, and have certain levels of blood fats and sugars. Healthy controls must meet similar criteria but also have normal HbA1c levels.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial aims to understand how Type 1 Diabetes affects the risk of heart disease by comparing fat and protein particles in the blood (apolipoproteins and triglycerides) between those with T1D and healthy individuals through metabolic testing.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves metabolic testing rather than drug treatment, side effects may be minimal but could include discomfort or bruising from blood draws or potential reactions to any substances used during testing.
