Cerebral Perfusion Changes in Obese Subjects After Administration of 75 Grams of Glucose. A SPECT, Controlled, Blinded and Randomized Study.
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating 75 grams of glucose plus water solution and Pure water for Obesity. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study evaluates the hypothesis that a meal constituted of only glucose produces differences in the brain blood flow in people with obesity that are not observed in people without obesity. These changes, at least in part, could explain the mechanisms involved in maintenance or development of obesity.

Timeline
Interventions
A solution composed by 75 grams of glucose and water at ambient temperature is administered to each volunteer, being of the with obesity group or the without obesity group, as follow: * 300 mL final volume of the solution. * Time of oral ingestion inferior than 2 minutes. * 30 minutes before the radiopharmaceutical injection. * 12 hours fasting minimum.
Pure water at ambient temperature is administered to each volunteer, being of the with obesity group or the without obesity group, as follow: * 300 mL final volume of the solution. * Time of oral ingestion inferior than 2 minutes. * 30 minutes before the radiopharmaceutical injection. * 12 hours fasting minimum.
