简要总结
This study is a single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over pilot study designed to assess the safety of intranasally (IN) delivered glulisine versus placebo in patients with DS. Subjects will be randomized into this cross-over study and within subject comparisons conducted between single treatment of intranasal insulin glulisine and single treatment of intranasal placebo. All subjects will also receive a single treatment of placebo prior to randomization to ensure adherence to study procedures.

Insulin (glulisine), then Placebo
Participants first receive one dose of Glulisine 20 IU/IN (.1ml/10 units intranasal in each nostril). After a washout period of 2 weeks, they then received one dose of placebo, Sterile Normal Saline 20 IU/IN (.1ml intransal in each nostril).
干预措施: Insulin glulisine (Drug)
