Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Any medications that affect insulin resistance or sleep (e.g., metformin, stimulants, atypical antipsychotics, current use of oral steroids)
  • A prior diagnosis of a sleep disorder (e.g. insomnia, delayed sleep phase syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea) or abnormal scores on sleep disorders screening measures
  • Travel across more than two time zones in the 2 weeks prior to the study

Other illness

  • IQ\<70 or severe mental illness that may impact sleep or ability to consent/assent (e.g., schizophrenia, psychotic episodes), verified through chart review

Lab values

  • Type 2 diabetes (HbA1c ≥ 6.5%)

Other

  • Regular use of melatonin or other sleep aids
  • Teens not enrolled in a traditional high school academic program (e.g., home school students)
  • Schedules that would preclude participants from adhering to the sleep extension protocol (e.g. night shift employment)

Who the study is looking for

  • High school students between the age of 13-19 years
  • BMI \>85th percentile for age and sex
  • Prediabetes defined as a HbA1c 5.7-6.4%
  • Tanner Stage 4-5 (based on breast development for girls and testicular size for boys)
