NCT ID NCT07494084

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how losing sleep and having a disrupted body clock (like shift workers) can make the body less responsive to insulin, a key step toward obesity and type 2 diabetes. Researchers will test 48 healthy adults aged 18-45 to see how the timing of the stress hormone cortisol affects insulin resistance. The goal is to better understand these links and find ways to help people avoid the negative health effects of chronic sleep loss.
