Cerebral Blood Flow Changes in People With Obesity After Glucose Consumption

NCT02072694 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2014-05-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study evaluates the hypothesis that a meal constituted of only glucose produces differences in the brain blood flow in people with obesity that are not observed in people without obesity. These changes, at least in part, could explain the mechanisms involved in maintenance or development of obesity.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

75 grams of glucose plus water solution

A solution composed by 75 grams of glucose and water at ambient temperature is administered to each volunteer, being of the with obesity group or the without obesity group, as follow: * 300 mL final volume of the solution. * Time of oral ingestion inferior than 2 minutes. * 30 minutes before the radiopharmaceutical injection. * 12 hours fasting minimum.

OTHER

Pure water

Pure water at ambient temperature is administered to each volunteer, being of the with obesity group or the without obesity group, as follow: * 300 mL final volume of the solution. * Time of oral ingestion inferior than 2 minutes. * 30 minutes before the radiopharmaceutical injection. * 12 hours fasting minimum.
