About this study

Official title: Effect of Enhanced Counseling Using Complementary Feeding Recommendation Based on Linear Programming on Nutritional Status, Omega-3 Fatty Acid, Malondialdehyde, and Alpha-Tocopherol in Children With Risk of Overweight in East Jakarta

The epidemic of pediatric obesity has become a public health burden in both developed and developing countries, due to its serious health consequences, including an increased risk of type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and heart disease. Currently, dietary and exercise changes are still the center of preventive and treatment measures of obesity. Recently, the omega-3 group, one of the groups of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), has been associated with many positive effects leading to the improvement of many diseases related to obesity. Nevertheless, the consumption of this essential nutrient requires certain ration to optimize its favorable result. Although previous studies have examined the efficacy of dietary counseling approach as treatment for obesity, none of them as explicitly explore the use of linear programming to create a tailored diet containing high omega-3 fatty acid food as a part of dietary counseling in obesity management program among children. Thus, this study is intended to contribute the clinical evidence regarding this area of knowledge, specifically the effects of enhanced counseling containing complementary feeding recommendation on nutritional status, omega-3 fatty acid, malondialdehyde, and alpha Tocopherol among children with risk of overweight aged 12 -23 months in East Jakarta.

Read the detailed description

Randomized-Controlled-Trial with two arms of intervention:

  1. Control group: receive standard counseling with general existing menu recommendation
  2. Intervention group: receive enhanced counseling (additional information on omega-3 fatty acids) with population-based menu ganerated from linear programming (LP)

There is a protocol on stratified block randomization. 2 blocks, stratified by: area, age, BMI-for-age status.

Total sample size for analysis:

Overall: 20 control - 18 intervention Blood sample: 18 control - 14 intervention

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Enhanced Counseling using CFR based on LPExperimentalThe counseling will be done by individual face-to-face communications. The intervention's arm will get a counseling with an additional of 7-day cycle with adequate n-3 and optimal n-3/6 ratio for complementary feeding menu obtained from linear programming formulation. The counseling consisted of nutritional status in children aged 12-23 months and how to determine the nutritional status; the principle of balanced diet; definition, function, and source of omega-3; example of menu that contains adequate omega-3. The duration of counseling is approximately 30 minutes, once a week for ten weeks. The mother or caregiver will also receive daily menu for seven days that should be followed during the intervention. The daily menu comprised of 3 main meals and 2 snacks.

General CFR CounselingActive comparatorThe control's arm will get general counseling combining balance diet and IYCF principal, which already been used by Ministry of Health, with additional of 7-day cycle menu guidance modified from existing or available menu which can be downloaded for public on Ministry of Health official website. The counseling consisted of nutritional status in children aged 12-23 months and how to determine the nutritional status; the principle of balanced diet based on Ministry of Health's Recommendation, and example of balanced diet menu. The duration of counseling is approximately 30 minutes, once a week for ten weeks. The mother or caregiver will also receive daily menu for seven days that should be followed during the intervention.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Enhanced Counseling using CFR based on Linear Programming in people with Complementary Feeding Recommendation and Linear Programming,, run by Universitas Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 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 22 Jun 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 Indonesia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Nutritional status (time frame: 10 weeks). 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 22 Jun 2016.
