Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The main objective is to investigate the effect of a single dose of 5 mikrogram GLP-1 receptor agonist ( exenatid ) on blood flow velocity and oxigination in<br>persons without cerebrovascular disease.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives of this study is to investigate if the GLP-1 receptor agonist ( exenatid ) improves the peripheral endothelial function<br>measured as an improved blood vessel respons in the fingers after a short occlusion of blood suply to the arm measured with endoPAT2000<br>and by measuring the blood pressure in the ancles (ancle-brachial index). Besides of that is the objective to examine the endothelial<br>function and inflammation through specific biomarkers. <br>;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint is changes in the mean blood flow velocity (Vmean) in the middle cerebral artery and the cortical oxigination. <br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to three hours after injection of exenatid.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): - Changes in peripheral vascular function measured by EndoPAT and<br>changes in the ancle-brachial index<br>- Changes in inflammatory- and endothelial function markers in the<br>blood. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Up to three hours after injection of exenatid.
