Scientists scan brains to see if body clock is broken in diabetes

NCT ID NCT05314855

Summary

This study aimed to understand if the brain's master clock, which controls daily rhythms, is disrupted in people with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Researchers used a powerful brain scanner to measure the clock's activity in 28 obese adults with varying levels of insulin sensitivity. The goal was to gather knowledge about the link between body clocks and metabolic disease, not to test a treatment.
