Trial summary

We aim to investigate the beneficial effect of adding grain fiber to daily rice meal in type 2 diabetic patients. We anticipate this intervention will improve glycemia and lipid profile in these patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Reconstitute Multiple Grain on Glucose and Lipid Metabolism in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

We aim to investigate the beneficial effect of adding grain fiber to daily rice meal in type 2 diabetic patients. We anticipate this intervention will improve glycemia and lipid profile in these patients.

Read the detailed description

Resistance of insulin-mediated glucose transport is a fundamental early defect in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). It has been found that high fiber concentration in meal is frequently associated with low GI. In many single-blind cross-over study, short term consumption of high fiber meal has been shown to enhance postprandial insulin sensitivity in healthy subjects. We presume that increasing daily consumption of fiber would improve the insulin resistance and therefor glycemic parameters patients with DM. Patients with type 2 diabetes with stable dose of hypoglycemic medication control will be recruited, two types of meals will be given, type A is a general Asian rice-meal and type B consists of the same rice with multiple-grain-fiber added. Both type of meals will be consumed for 3 months by each patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Multiple grain and Ordinary Asian- rice in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by National Cheng-Kung University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Oct 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact HY Ou, MD (886-6-2353535 ext. 2177, wahoryi@mail.ncku.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in glycemic parameters including fasting plasma glucose, postprandial plasma glucose, insulin sensitivity and lipid profile. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Oct 2006; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
