Scientists probe Sleep's hidden link to diabetes

NCT ID NCT02256865

Summary

This study aimed to understand how not getting enough sleep might lead to insulin resistance, a key factor in type 2 diabetes. Researchers studied 40 healthy men by restricting their sleep and measuring changes in hormones like cortisol and testosterone. The goal was to gather knowledge about the body's response to sleep loss, not to provide a treatment.
