Brief Summary

Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level) occurs frequently in intensively treated patients with diabetes. Although hypoglycemia was thought to occur almost exclusively in T1DM, with the advent of improved metabolic control in T2DM, the incidence of hypoglycemia is rising in these patients. Therefore in this application, we will test the novel hypothesis that prior hypoglycemia will result in (cardiovascular complications) during subsequent hypoglycemia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percent Changes in Endothelial Function as Measured by Flow Mediated Dilation by 2D Doppler Ultrasound on Day 2

    A measure of the baseline arterial dilation on day 2 is compared to the post intervention measure of dilation of the brachial artery on Day 2.

    baseline on day 2 and ~6 hours later at end of glucose clamp period

Study Arms (2)

Control study then antecedent hypoglycemia study group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Day 1 euglycemia, day 2 hypoglycemia Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemic Clamp: hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp separated by 8 weeks then participants proceeded to antecedent hypoglycemia study Day 1 hypoglycemia, Day 2 hypoglycemia

Other: Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemic Clamp

Antecedent Hypoglycemic clamp study

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Day 1 hypoglycemia, day 2 hypoglycemia Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemic Clamp: hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp separated by 8 weeks then participants proceeded to control study Day 1 euglycemia, Day 2 hypoglycemia

Other: Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemic Clamp

Interventions

all participants received (2) hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp studies separated by 8 weeks

Antecedent Hypoglycemic clamp studyControl study then antecedent hypoglycemia study group

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • (7 female/ 7 male) Type 2 diabetic patients age 18-60 yrs
  • (7 female/ 7 male) Non-diabetic controls age and weight matched
  • Body mass index \>20 kg/m2
  • Normal results of routine blood test to screen for hepatic, renal, and hematological abnormalities
