Summary

This study tests a new procedure called ReCET that uses gentle electric pulses to regenerate the lining of the small intestine. It is combined with a diabetes drug (semaglutide) to see if people with type 2 diabetes can safely stop using insulin. The study involves 32 adults and compares the real procedure to a sham (fake) procedure to measure effectiveness.
