What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Weight

    Measured: Assessed at baseline and 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Change From Baseline in Body Composition

    lean body mass (kg) and fat mass (kg) at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  2. Change From Baseline in 24-Hour Dietary Recall

    24-hour dietary intake recall at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: Assessed at different time points: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  3. Change From Baseline in Resting Metabolic Rate

    Resting metabolic rate at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment

    Measured: baseline and 2weeks of treatment

  4. Change From Baseline Triglycerides

    Triglycerides (mg/dl) at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: Assessed at different time points: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  5. Change From Baseline in Glucose

    Glucose (mg/dl) at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: Assessed at different time points: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  6. Change From Baseline in Leptin

    Leptin (ng/ml) at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: Assessed at different time points: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  7. Change From Baseline in Insulin

    Insulin (µIU/ml) at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: Assessed at different time points: baseline and 2 weeks of treatment (olanzapine or placebo)

  8. Change From Baseline Total Cholesterol

    Total cholesterol at baseline and after 2 weeks treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: baseline and 2 weeks treatment

  9. LDL

    Low-density lipoprotein at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: baseline and 2 weeks treatment

  10. HDL

    High-density lipoprotein at baseline and after 2 weeks of treatment with olanzapine or placebo

    Measured: baseline and 2 weeks treatment

  11. Physical Activity as Measured Using a Physical Activity Monitor

    Change from baseline in physical activity. Physical activity was measured using an activity monitor that subjects wore around their waist throughout baseline and treatment days. Subjects were instructed to remove the monitor when sleeping or engaging in water-based activities, and to report on a daily log the times that they were wearing and removing the device. Physical activity was monitored during weekdays and weekend days. Physical activity data were collected in 60-second epochs. The results are reported as average counts per day of physical activity for weekdays and weekend days at baseline and 2 week treatment.

    Measured: baseline and 2 week treatment
