NCT ID NCT06682481

First seen May 20, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a substance in the blood called 1,5-anhydroglucitol can help measure how well insulin-producing beta cells are working in obese children, with or without type 2 diabetes. Researchers will compare levels of this marker in 50 children aged 12 to 16 who are obese to those in healthy volunteers. The goal is to find a simple way to spot early problems with blood sugar control.
