Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The number of electroencephalogram (EEG) identified arousals

    During the first four hours (0-4 hours) after reaching sleep stage N2

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Time spent in the different sleep stages (% of total sleep time): Sleep stage N1, Sleep stage N2, Sleep stage N3 and Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep

    During the first four hours (0-4 hours) after reaching sleep stage N2

  • Total sleep time

    0-8 hours

Study Arms (2)

Normoglycaemia followed by hypoglycaemia

OTHER
Other: glucose clamp

Hypoglycaemia followed by normoglycaemia

OTHER
Other: glucose clamp

Interventions

Each subject will complete one adaptation night visit followed by two experimental night visits, one normoglycaemic and one hypoglycaemic, in randomised order. While subjects are asleep, sleep patterns will be monitored online using polysomnographic recordings during a hypoglycaemic and a normoglycaemic clamp (using constant intravenous (i.v.) infusion of human soluble insulin (Actrapid®)). Plasma glucose will be monitored.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 64 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus (diagnosed clinically) for at least 24 weeks prior to screening
  • Currently treated with any anti-diabetic treatment (incl. diet and exercise) except insulin with a stable dose for more than 4 weeks prior to screening
  • Body mass index below 35 kg/m\^2

You may not qualify if:

  • Severe hypoglycaemic event during the past 6 months or hospitalisation for diabetic ketoacidosis during the previous 6 months
  • Any other chronic disorder or severe disease by clinical information (including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sleep apnoea and epilepsy) which, in the opinion of the investigator might jeopardise subject's sleep, safety or compliance with the protocol, or subjects with mental incapacity or language barriers precluding adequate understanding or co-operation or who, in the opinion of the investigator, should not participate in the trial
  • Use of antidepressants, antipsychotics, hypnotics, sedatives or other drugs known to influence sleep within 12 weeks prior to screening
