About this study

Official title: Substrate Oxidation Does Not Affect Short Term Food Intake in Healthy Boys and Men.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of substrate oxidation, expressed by RER, on food intake regulation and net energy balance.

Read the detailed description

The relationship between substrate oxidation as measured by respiratory exchange ratio (RER) and food intake is undefined. This study is examining the effects of three modulators of substrate oxidation (RER), a glucose preload, exercise and age food intake regulation and net energy balance in normal-weight boys (9-12 y) and men (20-30 y).

Subjects (15 boys, 15 men) were measured in random order with treatments of beverages of either water or glucose followed by either moderate exercise or rest for 40 min. Measures included RER via indirect calorimetry, energy expenditure, subjective appetite, food intake measured at an ad libitum pizza meal and net energy balance as the sum of the calories of the glucose preload + calories from the pizza lunch minus energy expended at exercise or rest.

What is being measured

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

  1. Food Intake

    Energy intake from the ad libitum the pizza meal at 60 min was calculated based on the weight consumed and the compositional information provided by the manufacturer.

    Measured: 60 - 90 min in the study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Net Energy Balance

    Will be calculated from the energy consumed by the glucose preload and the pizza meal minus energy expended at the exercise.

    Measured: 0-90 min in the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Glucose Preload and Exercise Intervention in people with Food Intake Regulation and Substrate Oxidation, run by University of Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

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 6 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 28 Jun 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 Canada. 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?

Food Intake (time frame: 60 - 90 min in the study). 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 NCT01888991, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 28 Jun 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
