Math model may unlock diabetes remission secrets
NCT ID NCT06699810
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how blood sugar changes day-to-day in people with ketosis-prone diabetes as they go into remission. Researchers will use this data to build a math model that describes the remission process. The study involves 12 African American adults with a BMI of 28 or higher who have had diabetic ketoacidosis. The goal is to better understand and predict remission, not to test a new treatment.

Inclusion Criteria: * Provide informed consent * Have a BMI ≥ 28 kg/m2 * Be of African American ancestry * Meet diagnostic criteria for DKA. Diagnostic criteria for DKA will include a plasma glucose \> 250 mg/dl, a venous pH \< 7.30, a serum bicarbonate \< 18 mmol/l, and serum ketones (beta-hydroxy butyrate) \> 1.5 mmol/L. Exclusion Criteria: * Significant medical or surgical illness including but not limited to myocardial ischemia, congestive heart failure, chronic peripheral venous insufficiency, chronic renal insufficiency, liver insufficiency (serum transaminases 3 times the upper limit of normal) and acute or chronic infectious processes * Have recognized uncontrolled endocrine disorders such as hypercortisolism, acromegaly, or hyperthyroidism * Anemia (hemoglobin \< 12.5 g/dL for men, \<11.5 gm/dL for women), bleeding disorders, or abnormalities in coagulation studies * Pregnant * Diagnosis of diabetes \> 90 days before the presentation of DKA * Unable to give consent
