NCT ID NCT06426823

First seen Mar 29, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looked at how a hormone called GIP changes blood flow in the gut after eating in people with type 2 diabetes. Ten adults with diabetes received a sugar drink and a drug that blocks GIP, while MRI scans measured blood flow. The goal was to understand GIP's role in digestion and metabolism, not to test a new treatment.
