Type 2 Diabetes and Brain Health Study for Adults 60–85
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how type 2 diabetes affects blood flow in the brain and thinking ability. It compares people with diabetes to those without, and may help understand how to protect brain health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study screens older adults with type 2 diabetes for early signs of memory or thinking problems, and offers a program to help keep the brain healthy. It aims to find out if a combination of lifestyle changes, mental exercises, and medical support can slow cognitive decline.
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 tests if a special computer-based brain training program can help improve thinking and memory in older adults with diabetes who are at risk for dementia. It might help keep your mind sharp as you age.
This study looks at people who may be on the way to developing type 2 diabetes or who have it, to see how to help and better understand the condition. Depending on the part of the study you join, it may include brain scans and sleep testing.
This study is looking at ways to catch early thinking and memory changes in people with type 2 diabetes. By joining, you may help doctors learn how to spot problems sooner and find better ways to help.
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.
