Brief summary

Estimated treatment difference in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (mg/l) for colchicine as compared with placebo after 26 weeks of treatment

Detailed description

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (mg/l) (measured at week 30), Glycated haemoglobin (mmol/mol; %-point), Time spent in target glycemia (3.9–10 mmol/l) (% of 24 hours) as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, Time spent in hyperglycaemia level 1 (10–13.9 mmol/l) (% of 24 hours) as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, Time spent in hyperglycaemia level 2 (> 13.9 mmol/l) (% of 24 hours) as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, Time spent in hypoglycaemia level 1 (3.0–3.8 mmol/l) (% of 24 hours) as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, Time spent in hypoglycaemia level 2 (< 3.0 mmol/l) (% of 24 hours) as assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, Insulin dosage, long-acting (units/day), Insulin dosage, short-acting (units/day), Body weight (kg), Waist:hip ratio, Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (mmol/l), Interleukin-6 (pg/ml), Tumour necrosis factor alpha (pg/ml), Serious adverse events (SAE), Events of severe hypoglycemia, Events of diabetic ketoacidosis
