Brief summary

The aim of study is impact of additional treatment with new antidiabetic drugs (semaglutide or empagliflozine) compared to control group in T1DM patients - impact on endothelial function measured by FMD and FPF, arterial stiffness - measured by PWV, inflammatory biomarkers, markers of oxidative stress and endothelial progenitor cells (CD 34+/VDRL2, CD 133+/VDRL2) and correlation with glucovariability or time in range, measured with CGM system.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
evaluation of arterial stiffness with peak wave velocity ( PWV)12 weeksmeasurements of the velocity (m/s) at which arterial blood pressure pulses propagate - comparing two therapeutic groups and control group before and after intervention
evaluation of endothelial function by strain gauge plethysmography as change in forearm blood flow12 weekschanges in tissue perfusion (ml/100 ml of tissue/min) measured with strange gauge plethysmography as formarm blood flow before and after postishemic reactive hyperemija comparing two therapeutic groups and control group before and after intervention
evaluation of endothelial function by flow mediated dilation (FMD) of brachial artery12 weeksmeasurement of dilation of brachial artery (in %) before and after postishemic hyperemia comparing two therapeutic groups and control group before and after intervention

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
evaluation of endothelial progenitor cells EPC count12 weekschange in count of endothelial progenitor cells CD 34\*, 133+ as endothelial function markers before and after intervention - comparing two therapeutic groups and control
evaluation of change in inflammatory biomarkers12 weekschange of hs CRF, Il6 after treatment comparing two therapeutic groups and control
evaluation of change in biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction12 weekschange in s-VCAM, s-ICAM values before and after intervention - comparing two therapeutic groups and control

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
body impedance measurements12 weekschanges in measurements of body composition fat , muscle and water before and after intervention - comparing two therapeutic groups and control
changes of glycemia endpoints glucovariability/time in range2 weeksvariability of excursions of glucose - coeficient of variability / time in range defined as blood glucose beetwen 3,9 and 10 mmol/l before and after drug intervention assesed with CGM system
