Trial summary

The hypertriglyceridemia at fasting status has been known to be an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Recently, postprandial triglyceride (TG) levels draw an attention as a superior predictor of CVD because of non-fasting state for more than 12 hours and importance of triglyceride-rich… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Usefulness of Postprandial Triglyceride for Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk in Healthy People, Impaired Glucose Tolerance and Type 2 Diabetes

The hypertriglyceridemia at fasting status has been known to be an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Recently, postprandial triglyceride (TG) levels draw an attention as a superior predictor of CVD because of non-fasting state for more than 12 hours and importance of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein.

We aim to investigate the relationship of postprandial triglyceride after fat tolerance test and intima-medial thickness and to suggest normal reference of postprandial triglyceride after fat tolerance test. In addition, we evaluate the correlation of postprandial triglyceride and incretin secretion after fat tolerance test Ultimately, we want to estimate clinical importance of postprandial triglyceride in assessment of cardiovascular risk.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oral fat tolerance test in people with Diabetes and Prediabetes, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 27 Oct 2015. 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 South Korea. 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. 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?

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?

Changes of Triglyceride (time frame: 8 hours). 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 27 Oct 2015.
