NCT00373854 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hypothesis: Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) decreases function of the lining of the blood vessels in normal humans.

This study is designed to explore how hypoglycemia affects the function of the blood vessel lining. This will be determined by measuring blood flow to the arm before and after occlusion of flow. Blood vessel function will be measured before induction of hypoglycemia, during insulin induced hypoglycemia, and after recovery from hypoglycemia. A second study will be done but without hypoglycemia.
