Actual (reported)Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the ability of the body to regulate glucose (sugar). When glucose levels are low, the liver can make glucose to increase levels in the body. This important process is called endogenous glucose production (EGP). Previous studies suggest that the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain, helps to coordinate this process by communicating with the liver through potassium channels. Control of EGP can be impaired in people with type 2 diabetes, which may contribute to the high levels of glucose seen in these individuals. The purpose of this study is to understand how activating these potassium channels in the control centers of the brain with a medication called diazoxide might inhibit the amount of glucose made by the liver. This is particularly important for people with diabetes who have very high production of glucose, which in turn causes hyperglycemia (high levels of sugar in the blood) that leads to diabetes complications.

Actual (reported)Rate of Endogenous Glucose Production (EGP)
Rate of EGP (a measure of the body's production of sugar) was measured using analysis of blood samples taken throughout the pancreatic clamp procedure under various treatment conditions (e.g., diazoxide or placebo) by monitoring changes in the level of a non-radioactive, naturally occurring form of glucose (sugar). Rates were summarized by treatment (Diazoxide or Placebo) in mg/kg/min sing basic descriptive statistics.
