Reversibility of Brain Glucose Transport and Metabolism in T2DM: an Intervention Study

NCT04283617 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2024-02-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is designed to test if there is a difference in brain glucose transport kinetics in poorly controlled T2DM individuals with short duration and long duration of diabetes, using non-invasive magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRSI). Also, if these changes are reversible with improved glucose control will be tested. A better understanding of the impact of duration of diabetes on brain glucose transport function may have important implications for understanding the pathophysiology of brain complications in T2DM.

Conditions

  • Diabete Type 2

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Intensification of insulin regimen/Nutrition

The intensification of the diabetes regimens will be managed by Dr. Sanchez Rangel, a fully trained attending endocrinologist, The weight goal will be to have no more than 5% weight change. Participants will have regular phone and in-person MD and nutritionist communication over the course of the 12-week study. All individuals will be asked to perform SMBG at least 4 times a day (before breakfast, lunch, dinner, and bedtime). The daily SMBG records will be sent to Dr. Sanchez Rangel weekly for review to guide adjustment of insulin regimens. Target blood glucose levels will be between 80-130 mg/dl before meals and between \< 180 mg/dl at bedtime. Throughout the study, individuals will be contacted via telephone call, email or through additional clinic visits as deemed necessary for maintenance of glycemic control. All individuals will receive education regarding the detection and proper management of hypoglycemia.
