This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers want to understand why heart disease affects people with different types of diabetes in different ways. This study will use advanced heart imaging and blood tests to compare how autoimmune diabetes and type 2 diabetes affect the heart differently. By enrolling 200 people across these groups and healthy volunteers, the study aims to identify what causes heart damage in each type of diabetes.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in people with diabetes, but doctors don't fully understand why it develops differently depending on the type of diabetes someone has. This trial exists to fill that gap by studying the underlying causes — including immune system activity, nerve damage, inflammation, and genetic factors — so that future treatments can be more targeted and effective.

You would visit the research center for heart imaging tests, including advanced echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart) and cardiac MRI scans. You would also complete nerve function tests, provide blood samples for laboratory analysis including immune markers and genetic testing, and possibly undergo other assessments related to how your nervous system is functioning. The study involves observational testing only — no medications are being given — and researchers will compare your results across all three groups to understand the differences in how diabetes affects the heart.
