Mechanisms of Type 1 Diabetes Endophenotypes
- Conditions
- Type 1 Diabetes MellitusGenetic Predisposition to Disease
- Interventions
- Genetic: Genome sequencing
- Registration Number
- NCT05764850
- Lead Sponsor
- Pediatric Clinical Research Platform
- Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study consists of performing cluster analysis to decipher underlying disease mechanisms of type 1 diabetes in children and young adults.
To this end, we will combine clinical, laboratory, genetic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic datasets of an extensively phenotyped cohort of children and young adults with type 1 diabetes. We will also assess the risk for cardiovascular diseases in this most vulnerable diabetes cohort.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Cluster analysis to decipher underlying mechanisms of type 1 diabetes blood sampling and analyses We will combine clinical, laboratory, genetic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic datasets of an extensively phenotyped cohort of type 1 diabetes patients (Children and young adults).
We will create clinical and genetic correlates with the following clinical parameters: Age at diabetes onset (years), disease duration (years), BMI (kg/m2), diabetes autoantibodies, C-peptide level (pmol/l) and decline over time, HbA1c (%), insulin dose (U/kg/d), ketoacidosis at disease onset (y/n), lipid levels (Total cholesterol, triglycerides, HLD, LDL, Lipoprotein(a)), macro- and microvascular complications, ethnicity, family history for diabetes, associated autoimmune diseases (e.g., autoimmune thyroiditis or celiac disease) and mixed meal tolerance test.
