Amino acid shot could shorten dangerous diabetic crises
NCT ID NCT07167693
Summary
This study is testing whether a single dose of a natural amino acid called arginine can help people recover faster from diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a serious complication of diabetes. Sixty adults arriving at Detroit-area emergency rooms with DKA will receive either arginine or a placebo infusion along with their standard care. Researchers will check if the arginine helps the pancreas release its own insulin more quickly, which could clear dangerous ketones faster and reduce the need for external insulin.
