  3. Changes in levels of free fatty acids

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  4. Changes in levels of circulating inflammatory markers

    Changes in levels of inflammatory markers, such as cytokines, acute phase proteins and soluble adhesion molecules

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  5. Changes in levels of circulating endotoxins

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  6. Changes in gene expressions (mRNA and microRNA) of genes related to lipid metabolism and inflammation in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC)

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  7. Changes in whole genome transcriptomics in PBMC

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  8. Check DNA for Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms related to responses of a high-fat meal

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  9. Examine epigenetics through DNA methylation and histone modification

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  10. Changes of plasma and urine metabolomics

    Changes in levels of metabolites, such as glucose and amino acids

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  11. Changes in levels of gut hormones

    Changes in levels of gut hormones, such as peptide YY (PYY)

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

  12. Changes in experiences of hunger and satiety by Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) questionnaire

    Measured: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Butter, Cheese and Whipped cream in people with Healthy and Overweight, run by University of Oslo at 1 site in Norway.

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 4 inclusion and 16 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 7 Nov 2022. 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 Norway. 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?

Changes in levels of circulating triglycerides (time frame: Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal). 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 NCT02836106, which also lists 3 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 7 Nov 2022.
