Who this trial is looking for

This trial is looking for adults with type 2 diabetes to understand how better control of blood sugar affects the brain. Participants will be monitored over 12 weeks to see if improving blood sugar levels can help reverse some brain changes.

About This Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of high blood glucose levels in the brain and assess if the changes seen in individuals with poorly control T2DM can be reversed with good glucose control. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * To determine, whether abnormalities in brain glucose transport seen in individuals with uncontrolled diabetes, can be improved with …
