Trial summary

The purpose of this protocol is to measure and compare levels of the circulating protein adiponectin and adiponectin's association with insulin sensitivity in Mexican Americans and non-Latino white subjects. The investigators also aimed to examine associations between nutritional factors and adiponectin levels. Read more about this study

What is being measured

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

  1. total adiponectin concentration

    Measured: measured once during second study visit, in fasting condition

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Insulin sensitivity

    Calculated from insulin and glucose values obtained during IV glucose tolerance test.

    Measured: Measured once, during second study visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Colorado, Denver at 1 site in United States.

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 8 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 15 Apr 2013. 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 United States. 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?

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?

total adiponectin concentration (time frame: measured once during second study visit, in fasting condition). 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 15 Apr 2013.
