NCT ID NCT07173543
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether short, controlled sessions of low oxygen (intermittent hypoxia) can improve blood flow to the brain and memory in adults aged 60-85 with type 2 diabetes. Researchers will compare the training to a placebo in 80 participants. The goal is to find a new way to protect brain health as people age with diabetes.
