What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The serum level of fasting apolipoprotein B-48

    Measured: 72 hours within stroke onset

  2. The serum level of postprandial apolipoprotein B-48

    Measured: within 72 hours after stroke onset

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The serum level of the postprandial triglyceride

    Measured: 72 hours within stroke onset

  2. The serum level of fasting total cholesterol

    Measured: within 72 hours after stroke onset

  3. The serum level of fasting LDL cholesterol

    Measured: within 72 hours after stroke onset

  4. the level of fasting HDL cholesterol

    Measured: within 72 hours after stroke onset

  5. the level of fasting triglyceride

    Measured: within 72 hours after stroke onset

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Hallym University Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 11 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 5 Oct 2011. 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 South Korea. 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.

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 Byung-Chul Lee, MD, PhD (+82-31-380-3741, ssbrain@hallym.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The serum level of fasting apolipoprotein B-48 (time frame: 72 hours within stroke onset). 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?
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 Oct 2011.
