Type 2 diabetes and brain blood barrier study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests if a treatment can improve the blood-brain barrier in adults with type 2 diabetes. It uses MRI scans to see changes and may help protect brain function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have type 2 diabetes
- You are not currently in the hospital
- You can lie flat for an MRI scan
- You do not have a history of stroke, seizure, or head injury
- You do not have metal or electronic implants, like a pacemaker or insulin pump that can't be removed
- You weigh less than 300 pounds

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether the way the brain uses sugar (glucose) in people with type 2 diabetes can improve, and whether changes track with tighter diabetes treatment. You may get brain scans (MRI/MRS) and diabetes monitoring to see if there’s “reversibility” in the brain’s sugar transport.
This study uses MRI scans to look at a specific brain circuit (the Papez loop) in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to understand how diabetes might affect brain networks related to memory and emotion.
This study uses medical scans (MRI) to better understand diabetes in the body, including the eyes, and how it may change over time. It may help improve how diabetes is monitored, especially for people with diabetic eye disease.
This study looks at brain health in teens with normal weight, overweight, or obesity who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand how weight and diabetes risk affect the brain, using MRI scans and learning/memory tests.
This study uses special MRI techniques to look at brain chemistry. It is testing people with type 2 diabetes, carotid artery narrowing, or mild memory problems to see how their brain metabolism differs from healthy people.
This study looks at how insulin resistance in the brain affects brain health. If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and are between 50 and 80 years old, you may be able to join to help researchers understand brain changes.
