What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Amount of cerebral blood flow
Time frame: Change from baseline at minute 15
Measured with trans-cranial Doppler ultrasound (cm/s) or arterial spin labeling (mL/100 g/min)
Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this project is to examine the impact of increases in brain insulin on sympathetic nervous system activity, as well as peripheral and cerebral blood flow in humans.
