Summary

This is a research study to understand how diabetic ketoacidosis may affect the brain and learning and to see if these changes are transient or permanent. The investigators hope to learn more about how diabetic ketoacidosis may cause changes in brain compliance (by wearing a non-invasive head band/helmet like device from Jan Medical: The Nautilus Neurowave System™ (NNS), learning, talking, behavior, or development. The investigators will compare those results from those with diabetes mellitus to those age and gendered matched healthy controls. Possible subjects in this study have diabetes mellitus and are between the ages of 10 to less than 17 years old OR do NOT have diabetes and are between the ages of 10 to less than 17 years old.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

this is not an intervention study

Subjects will wear the headband/helmet-like device for approximately 10 minutes on four different occasions: t=0, t=1week, t=1month, t=3months. Of note, part of the device also involves electrodes that are worn to obtain an electrocardiogram or EKG.

OTHER

this is not an intervention study

Subjects will be asked to participate in both computerized and non-computerized tests to assess subjects' cognitive (learning, language and memory) abilities, developmental level, and behavior. Tests will take place at t=0, t=1week, t=1month, t=3months.

DEVICE

MRI

MRI study of the brain will be performed at t=3months.
