Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to compare cognitive function and associated brain activation patterns during an acute hypoglycaemic episode and during euglycaemia (normal blood glucose concentration). Additionally, the purpose is to assess cognitive function in the recovery phase after hypoglycaemia or euglycaemia, respectively, in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

Hypoglycaemia / euglycaemia clamp

Group Type OTHER

glucose clamp

Intervention Type OTHER

Each subject will be randomly allocated to an experimental visit sequence consisting of a hypoglycaemic glucose clamp followed by euglycaemic glucose clamp (using i.v. infusion of human soluble insulin (Actrapid®)) or vice versa separated by at least 21 days. Each visit includes an overnight stay. For each of the two conditions (euglycaemia and hypoglycaemia) cognitive performance will be assessed by a validated cognitive test

Euglycaemia clamp / hypoglycaemia

Group Type OTHER

glucose clamp

Intervention Type OTHER

Each subject will be randomly allocated to an experimental visit sequence consisting of a hypoglycaemic glucose clamp followed by euglycaemic glucose clamp (using i.v. infusion of human soluble insulin (Actrapid®)) or vice versa separated by at least 21 days. Each visit includes an overnight stay. For each of the two conditions (euglycaemia and hypoglycaemia) cognitive performance will be assessed by a validated cognitive test
