Understanding Metabolism and Inflammation Risks for Diabetes in Adolescents

The Role of Circulating Meta-Inflammatory Monocytes in Adolescent Insulin Resistance

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This research study collects health-related information and blood samples to better understand how body composition, lifestyle habits, and diet influence meta-inflammatory monocytes (MiMos) in adolescents. The hypothesis of this study is that adolescents at risk for metabolic disease have enhanced MiMo related activities leading to insulin resistance.
