NCT ID NCT07757308
First seen Aug 11, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how metabolic problems in type 2 diabetes might affect the way the brain and heart communicate. Researchers will measure brain activity, heart rhythm, physical fitness, and mental well-being in about 46 adults with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if these factors are connected and to find better ways to support early detection and rehabilitation.
