About this study

Official title: The Effect of Vinegar Co-ingestion on Postprandial Glucose Control in Type 2 Diabetes Patients

The main objective of this study is to assess the acute effect of co-ingested vinegar on postprandial plasma glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients.

Read the detailed description

Plasma glucose and insulin concentrations are assessed over the 2 hr period following ingestion of carbohydrate-rich beverage with or without added vinegar.

Being tested
placebo co-ingestion, vinegar co-ingestion
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

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

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing vinegar co-ingestion in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Maastricht University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Oct 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Postprandial Glycemic Incremental Area Under the Curve (time frame: 2 hr). 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 3 Oct 2011.
