Read our Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research study is looking for early signs of heart and blood vessel disease in people with type 1 diabetes. Researchers will use a combination of imaging scans (like CT scans of your heart), ultrasound, blood tests, and questionnaires about your diet and mental health to get a complete picture of your cardiovascular risk. The goal is to catch problems early, when they may be easier to treat.
People with type 1 diabetes have a higher risk of developing heart disease, but early warning signs are often missed. This study aims to identify those signs before symptoms appear, so doctors can help prevent serious heart problems down the road.
You will visit the research center for imaging tests including a heart CT scan, ultrasound of your neck vessels, and an ankle blood pressure measurement. You'll also meet with a nutritionist to discuss your eating habits and a psychologist to talk about stress and mental health. Before your visit, you'll complete questionnaires about your diet. The study collects information from your medical records and takes blood samples to measure your blood sugar control and other health markers.
