About this study

The aim of this study will be to evaluate in patients with type 2 diabetes the effects on liver fat of an intervention with a diet relatively rich in CHO/rich in fibre/low GI or a diet rich in MUFA, either combined or not with a structured program of physical exercise, with emphasis on mechanisms possibly underlining these effects, namely changes in postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, body fat distribution, insulin sensitivity, oxidative stress and inflammation, adipose tissue lipolytic activities, aerobic capacity and endothelial function.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Rich in MUFA diet -PAOther

    The patients will follow a rich in MUFA diet without a physical activity program.

  • high fiber/low glycemic index diet + paOther

    patients will follow for two months a high fibre/ low glycemic index diet with a physical activity program.

  • Rich in MUFA diet+PAOther

    Patients will follow for two months a rich in MUFA diet with a physical activity program.

  • High fibre/low glycemic index diet-PAOther

    Patients will follow for two months a high fibre/low glycemic index diet without a physical activity program.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Rich in MUFA diet -PA, high fiber/low glycemic index diet + pa and Rich in MUFA diet+PA in people with Postprandial Lipids Metabolism and Type 2 Diabetes, run by Federico II University.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Liver fat content (time frame: 0 and 8 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01025856, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 5 Dec 2012.
