April 12, 2023 updated by: Rehab Werida

Effects of Rosuvastatin on Markers of Atherosclerosis in Diabetic Patients Treated With Glimepiride/Metformin Combination

study effects of rosuvastatin on markers of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, in diabetic patients treated with glimepiride/metformin without coronary artery disease.

This effect will be investigated especially on sortilin ,fetuin-A

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A randomized controlled trial on 70 patients with DM type 2 will be recruited from Damanhour national medical institute.

  • Subjects will be divided into two group (one arm is DM-type 2 patients who will receive rosuvastatin -metformin-glimepiride combination (40 patients) and another arm is DM-type 2 patient who will receive glimepiride-metformin combination (30 patients).
  • Determination of serum levels of fetuin A and Sortilin
  • Blood samples will be collected after 3-month after active treatment.
  • Outcomes measurement : Sortilin ,fetuinA, Atherogenic index (AI) and coronary risk index (CRI) .

Methodology

  • Sortilin, fetuinA will be determined by ELISA.
  • Lipid profile.
  • FBG and Hb A1C will be measured.
  • Atherogenic index (AI = LDL-C/HDL-C) and CRI (CRI = TC/HDL-C) will be calculated for all subjects.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
serum levels of fetuin A
Time Frame: three months
Fetuin-A has a diagnostic potential as a biomarker for liver dysfunction, cardiovascular diseases and disorders associated with metabolic syndrome.
three months
serum levels of Sortilin
Time Frame: three months
Sortilin is involved in lipid metabolism, promotes the development of atherosclerosis, and possibly becomes a potential therapeutic target for atherosclerosis treatment.
three months
