Official title
Effect of Single Dose Intranasal Insulin on Cognitive Function in Patients With Schizophrenia
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of the study is to find out how a small dose of insulin might affect memory, the ability to concentrate, and improve your daily functioning in patients with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders. Insulin is not being used to treat diabetes in this study. The investigators propose a single dose, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial of intranasal insulin in 40 subjects with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder to examine insulin's effect on cognition. The specific aims include: 1. Examine the effects of single doses of 40 IU intranasal insulin compared to placebo on cognitive functioning, including attention and memory. 2. Examine whether single dose of intranasal insulin administration will raise serum insulin level and decrease plasma glucose level Insulin will be delivered through an air spray pump into your nose. The investigators will be comparing one dose of insulin (40 International Units) with placebo, an inactive liquid.
