What this trial measures
- Vascular FunctionBlood flow will be measured at baseline for 5 min in supine position. During exercise, blood flow will be measured continuously for the 3 minutes of handgrip exercise.
Blood flow (ml/min) will be measured using Doppler ultrasound during steady-state dynamic exercise. Vascular conductance (ml/min/mmHg) will be calculated by dividing blood flow with blood pressure (mmHg). This measure will inform us about the vascular function in type 1 diabetic patients.
- Autonomic FunctionBlood presure will be measured at baseline for 10 minutes and continuously during 2 minutes of isometric handgrip.
Blood pressure (mmHg) will be measured using Finapres at baseline and during activation of exercise pressor reflex. The exercise reflex will be activated by performing 2 minutes of isometric handgrip exercise at 30% and 40% of the maximal grip strength. This will inform us about the autonomic function in type 1 diabetic patients.
