Validation of a 13C Glucose Breath Test Compared With the Euglycaemic Clamp Test

NCT04623320 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Insulin resistance can be assessed by the euglycaemic clamp technique. To date, this is the golden standard, but it is not suited for clinical practice. A 13C glucose breath test will be tested as a valid alternative. The curve of the exhaled 13C CO2 as a function of glucose metabolism can be correlated to the curve of the glucose disposal rate obtained via the clamp technique.
