Study Summary

The goal of this study is to determine whether metabolic control centers in the brain can be activated in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) as compared to non-diabetic individuals. This is important since people with diabetes have inappropriately high production of glucose, which could be at least in part due to impaired activation of important brain centers.

Primary Outcome

Arterial Spin Labeling data was acquired and converted by the Gruss Magnetic Resonance Research Center (MRRC) and reported as Hypothalamic Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) which is a more meaningful clinical endpoint measurement. Data was collected at three time points during each of the two study visits (pre dosing, 2 hours post dosing, and 5 hours post dosing). CBF values at the respective timepoints are summarized in mL/100g/min units and reported by study arm. An increase in CBF is correlated with
