Trial Outcomes & Findings for Ursodiol on Insulin Sensitivity, Gastric Emptying and Body Weight With Type 2 Diabetes on Metformin (NCT NCT02033876)

NCT ID: NCT02033876

Last Updated: 2019-05-08

Results Overview

Mixed meal glucose results are used to calculate the area above basal (AAB) for glucose. The glycemic index of a food is defined as the incremental area under the two-hour blood glucose response curve (AUC) following an overnight fast and ingestion of a food with a certain quantity of available carbohydrate (usually 50 g).
