U.S., April 9 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07516496) titled 'Metabolic Phenotyping in vEDS' on April 01.
Brief Summary: This research study will investigate whether people with vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS), a rare inherited condition, have problems with the way their body stores and uses fat (adipose tissue). vEDS is caused by changes in a gene called COL3A1, which makes a protein important for the structure of many tissues. While vEDS is best known for making blood vessels fragile, there is some early evidence that it may also affect fat tissue and increase the risk of problems such as insulin resistance (where the body does not respond properly to insulin) and diabetes.
