About this study

Official title: Diet-induced Thermogenesis 2

About thirty participants, of varying degrees of obesity or being non-obese, without serious concomitant diseases consume either a high- or a low- carbohydrate beverage. The beverage is also consumed either as one single drink or as 5 small portions in the morning and are tested for effects on major cardiovascular risk markers and on metabolic rate for three hours on each occasion.

Read the detailed description

Thirty participants come to the metabolic ward at about 8 o´clock in the fasting state and stay until lunch on four occasions each. The participants are randomized to the order of the test meals. The meals have a total caloric content of 750 kcal and have either 50% of energy from carbohydrates (low fat) or 20% of energy from carbohydrates (low carb.). The meals are consumed on one occasion in the morning or divided in 5 portions (150 kcal each) for every 30 minutes, i.e. total combinations of meal composition and of meal distribution is 4. Effects of the food on p-glucose, s-insulin, blood-lipids, hormones and on metabolic rate is measured by blood tests or by indirect calorimetry (for metabolic rate). Sense of satiety is measured by visual analogue scales.

Being tested
two test meals with two different macronutrient compositions

What is being measured

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

  1. Metabolic rate

    The metabolic rate is measured before (baseline) and there after repeatedly during 3 hours

    Measured: During about 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Effects on glucose and insulin

    Repeated test of glucose and insulin for three hours after test meal

    Measured: 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing two test meals with two different macronutrient compositions in people with Metabolic Rate and Plasma Glucose, run by University Hospital, Linkoeping at 1 site in Sweden.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2019. 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 Sweden. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Metabolic rate (time frame: During about 3 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 24 Apr 2019.
