Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with stable type 2 diabetes seen in internal medicine or cardiology outpatient clinics in Italy who can give written informed consent are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
People with type 1 diabetes, those who are hospitalized or medically unstable, patients already enrolled in interventional studies, or those unable to consent are unlikely to benefit from participating.

What this trial studies
CardioMET is an observational, real-world registry enrolling adults with type 2 diabetes from internal medicine and cardiology outpatient clinics in Italy. It will collect clinical and pharmacological data to characterize patients' cardiovascular risk profiles and document management according to current ESC and AHA prevention guidelines. Eligible participants are adults with stable T2DM who can provide written informed consent, while type 1 diabetes, active participation in interventional trials, or conditions that increase participation risk are excluded. The collected data will be analyzed to identify patterns of care and gaps in guideline implementation to inform future quality-improvement efforts.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could help clinicians spot gaps in cardiovascular prevention and improve treatment choices for people with type 2 diabetes in Italy.
How similar studies have gone: Similar diabetes registries have been done and have successfully provided real-world insights into cardiovascular risk and treatment patterns, so this approach is established rather than novel.
