- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Index of Tissue Sensitivity to Insulin 2.5 hours after 3 months of therapy in the group of subjects undergoing hyperglycemic clamp (Aim 1), calculated by dividing the average glucose infusion rate during the last hour of the clamp by the average plasma insulin concentration during the same interval
Insulin Secretion 2.5 hours after 3 months of therapy in the group of subjects undergoing hyperglycemic clamp (Aim 1)
Glucose Infusion Rate 2.5 hours after 3 months of therapy In the group of subjects undergoing euglycemic clamp (Aim 2)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Blood Pressure 3 months Systolic blood pressure
Fasting Plasma Glucose 3 months
