Scientists probe Lactate's role in metabolic syndrome
NCT ID NCT07426172
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether high blood lactate levels in people with metabolic syndrome cause problems with fat breakdown and blood sugar control. Researchers will raise lactate levels in healthy volunteers using an IV infusion and then measure how their body handles fat and sugar during rest, exercise, and a glucose drink test. The goal is to better understand the link between lactate and metabolic health.
