About this study

Official title: The Effect of Meal Composition on Blood Lipid Concentrations

The purpose of this study is to see if a high-protein meal leads to a better postprandial (after a meal) blood lipid profile compared to a high-monounsaturated meal.

Read the detailed description

The effect of a high-protein diet compared to a high-monounsaturated fat diet on fasting lipids is controversial (1,2), In addition, these studies did not examine the effect of a high-protein compared to a high-monounsaturated meal on postprandial lipid concentrations. Postprandial lipid responses are important to examine since they are associated with heart disease (3,4). In addition, most individuals in Western countries are in a postprandial state for majority of the day. The present study will compare the effect of a high-protein meal versus a high-monounsaturated fat meal on postprandial lipid responses.

    Measured: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins

  5. Insulin

    Measured: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins

  6. Glucagon

    Measured: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins

  7. Glucose

    Measured: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins

  8. Leptin

    Measured: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High-Protein Condition and High-Monounsaturated Fat Condition in people with Dyslipidemia, run by Texas Christian University 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 1 inclusion and 14 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 21 Apr 2016. 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?

Blood lipid concentrations. (time frame: At 0 minute before the meal begins and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal begins). 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 NCT02529709, 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 21 Apr 2016.
