Within the past 20 years, there has been a striking increase in the incidence of obesity 1;2, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) 3-5, and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in the schizophrenic population 6-8 . Large NIH-funded trials indicate that the prevalence of metabolic syndrome is twice to three times greater in schizophrenic patients on a specific class of drug termed the "atypical antipsychotics" (AAPs), of which olanzapine is an example, as compared to matched controls 8. Identification of the pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to metabolic disease in schizophrenic patients on AAPs has been hampered by the inability to differentiate underlying disease from treatment-emergent complications. In addition, despite falling within the same drug class, different AAPs exhibit differential associations with metabolic disease. Olanzapine is one of the AAPs associated with the greatest weight gain and degree of metabolic impairments.
The primary purpose of this comparative clinical study is to collect clinical data to demonstrate the equivalence of the investigational device to the predicate device for measurements of the eye. The secondary purpose is to evaluate any adverse events that occur during the clinical study.
The study hypothesis is that the release of gut hormones is increased proportionally to caloric load in each meal. Three different meals with different meal size will therefore be served and gut hormones determined.
The study hypothesis is that gut hormones are released after oral but not intravenous amino acids which result in stimulation of insulin secretion.
