Background and study aims
Diabetes is a lifelong condition that causes a person's blood sugar level to become too high. Diabetes can lead to atherosclerosis, a disease where obstructive plaques build up inside the arteries. This disease may affect the vessels that supply the heart muscle, called the coronary arteries. Patients with such plaques may or may not have symptoms such as chest pain, which usually occurs during exercise or emotional stress and improves with rest. Although diabetes may lead to coronary obstructive plaques, it is still not completely known why some patients do not have this disease. The aim of this study is therefore to study the changes of the coronary arteries and heart function in patients with type 2 diabetes and no evidence of coronary artery disease.
Who can participate?
Patients with type 2 diabetes and no evidence of coronary artery disease
What does the study involve?
Participants are assessed for the development of coronary atherosclerosis using angiograms (a type of X-ray to examine blood vessels) and coronary-artery calcium scans at the start of the study and after 5 years of follow-up. In addition, the incidence of cardiovascular events, such as death, myocardial infarction (heart attack) and revascularization procedures are tracked, along with the functioning of the organs that are affected by diabetes, such as the kidneys. In addition, other heart disease risk factors that may play a role in coronary disease are investigated.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
With this study, we hope to better understand the factors that may be associated with plaque formation in the coronary arteries of diabetic patients.
Where is the study run from?
University of São Paulo (Brazil)

| Scientific title | Hypotheses, rationale, design, and methods for prognostic evaluation in type 2 diabetic patients with angiographically normal coronary arteries: the MASS IV-DM trial |
| Study acronym | MASS IV DM |
| Study objectives | The aim of the MASS IV-DM Trial is to compare the clinical data, laboratory profile, and angiographic evolution at baseline with that at 5-year follow-up in patients with type 2 diabetes who have angiographically normal coronary arteries. |

| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Prognosis of coronary artery disease in type 2 diabetic patients |
| Intervention | This study is an observational case-control study with 5 years follow-up. Diabetic patients with clinically suspected or electrocardiographically documented myocardial ischaemia will undergo coronary angiography, coronary artery calcium scan, doppler echocardiography, arterial stiffness evaluation, laboratory measurements and genetic analysis. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Incidence of major cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, death and heart failure). All primary and secondary outcome measures will be assessed every six months for 5 years. |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Microalbuminuria and renal function 2. Stroke All primary and secondary outcome measures will be assessed every six months for 5 years. |
