Microvascular Insulin Resistance and Mixed Meal Challenge

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2014
Insulin resistance (or pre-diabetes) is diagnosed using the oral glucose tolerance test. However, high blood glucose levels during this test may adversely impact on microvascular function. Investigators will determine whether a liquid mixed meal challenge (from carbohydrate, protein and fat) is a more appropriate test for assessing microvascular-derived insulin resistance.
