About this study

Official title: High Protein Diet , CRP and CVD Risk Factors

The investigators aimed to determine the effects of HP diet on CVD risk factors and hs-CRP among overweight and obese women.

Read the detailed description

Background: Studies regarding the effects of high protein (HP) diet on cardiovascular (CVD) risk factors have reported contradictory results.

Objective: In present study, we aimed to determine the effects of HP diet on CVD risk factors and hs-CRP among overweight and obese women.

Design: In this randomized controlled trial, we recruited 60 overweight and obese women, aged 20-65 years into HP or control energy restricted diets for three months (protein, carbohydrate, fat: 25%, 45%, 30% vs. 15%, 55%, 30%, respectively). Total protein amount, divided to animal and plant sources in 50%-50% and animal sources distributed (half/half) between meats and dairy products. Fasting blood samples, hs-CRP, lipid profile, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and anthropometric measurements were measured based on the standard guidelines.

What is being measured

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

  1. the amount of weight reduction in two dietary groups

    weight reduction (kg)

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. LDL-C (mg/dl

    measurement of LDL-C (mg/dl), HDL-C (mg/dl), total cholesterol (mg/dl), fasting blood glucose (mg/dl), systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), c reactive protein by the measurement of blood samples.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. HDL-C (mg/dl)

    Measured: 3 months

  3. total cholesterol (mg/dl)

    Measured: 3 months

  4. fasting blood glucose(mg/dl)

    Measured: 3 months

  5. blood pressure (mmHg)

    Measured: 3 months

  6. C-reactive protein (mc/dl)

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing nutrition intervention in people with Body Mass Index Quantitative Trait Locus 8 Disorder and Tangier Disease, run by Isfahan University of Medical Sciences.

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 3 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 9 Jan 2013. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

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?

the amount of weight reduction in two dietary groups (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT01763528, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Jan 2013.
