NCT ID NCT00678145

First seen May 24, 2026 ยท Last updated May 24, 2026

Summary

This study looked at why people with type 1 diabetes often fail to sense dangerously low blood sugar. Researchers tested how opioid drugs like morphine and naloxone affect the body's ability to respond to low glucose. The goal was to better understand these failures, not to provide a treatment. The study involved 39 healthy volunteers without diabetes.
