Status: COMPLETED
Study Results: YES
Results: https://ClinicalTrials.gov/show/NCT00153179/results
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions: DRUG: acipimox|DRUG: placebo
Outcome Measures: Primary: Flow-mediated Dilation After Placebo or Acipimox Treatment Between Healthy Controls and Those With Metabolic Syndrome, Flow mediated dilation is calculated as follows: A resting arterial diameter measurement is obtained using the average of 10 EKG-gated ultrasound images. Next, an occlusive pressure is applied (using a blood pressure cuff inflated to a suprasystolic pressure)for a period of 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the cuff is rapidly deflated. This produces a reactive hyperemic response which is captured via ultrasound at 1 minute post cuff deflation (also 10 EKG-gated images averaged). The diameter of the artery following reactive hyperemia is calculated and compared to the resting diameter to obtain a percent dilation. This is flow-mediated dilation., 7 days|Difference in Insulin-mediated Skeletal Muscle Glucose Utilization Between Test Agent and Placebo, Insulin sensitivity (M) is measured by using a hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp. Insulin sensitivity (M) was calculated as the average glucose infusion rate (mg/kg of body weight per min) over the last 30 min of the clamp. Higher values indicate better outcomes (more insulin sensitive), while lower values indicate more insulin resistance., baseline, 7 days |
