Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The primary objective of the trial is to determine whether blockade of IL-1 signalling by Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist improves insulin sensitivity. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are to determine wheter blockade of IL-1 signalling by Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist improves adipocyte insulin sensitivity and adipose tissue morphology and changes circulating inflammatory factors, adipokine levels and lipid profile.;Primary end point(s): whole body insulin sensitivity
