The Effect and Mechanisms of the Second-meal Phenomenon in Type 2 Diabetic Patients
- Conditions
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Registration Number
- NCT01127997
- Lead Sponsor
- The Catholic University of Korea
- Brief Summary
Second-meal phenomenon denotes the effect of a prior meal in decreasing the rise in blood glucose after a subsequent meal. This phenomenon occurs in normal subjects while it is not clear whether it is also observed in type 2 diabetic patients. This study aims to define whether the second-meal phenomenon occurs in type 2 diabetic patients. We will also seek for the mechanism.
