The Retinal Function in Relation to Glucose Changes

NCT00973726 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This project has the following specific purposes:

* To develop a clinically usable test to determine the blood glucose level or HbA1c-level, to which the retina is adapted. This will be performed by means of ERG implicit time measurements in relation to the blood glucose level during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and inter- or extrapolation to the level of blood glucose (or HbA1c) where implicit time is normal.
* To examine darkadaptation in diabetics in relation to changes in the glucose level.
* To examine vessel diameter changes in diabetic individuals when changing the glucose level transiently
