Summary

Patients will undergo magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) scanning to noninvasively measure intracerebral and plasma metabolite levels at baseline and following 2 and 4 hours of hyperglycemia. Subjects will also undergo a lumbar puncture at a separate occasion to assess cerebrospinal fluid levels of metabolites.
