About this study

Official title: Parathyroid Hormone and Cardiometabolic Outcomes in Obesity: Role of Magnesium and Vitamin D Supplementation

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a combined vitamin D and magnesium supplementation on parathyroid hormone and cardiometabolic health in persons living with obesity.

Read the detailed description

Individuals living with obesity are at a higher risk of cardiometabolic abnormalities and high circulating parathyroid hormone. There is evidence suggesting that vitamin D may play a role in cardiovascular health outcomes; however, the research is currently inconclusive. Magnesium is a cofactor of vitamin D metabolism, and the prevalence of concurrent vitamin D and magnesium deficiency is high. This study aims to investigate the effect of vitamin D and magnesium supplements in individuals who are overweight and obese on parathyroid hormone and cardiometabolic health.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitamin D and magnesium and Vitamin D in people with Overweight and Obesity and Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Drexel 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 Sep 2021. 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. 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?

Serum parathyroid hormone (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 NCT03134417, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Sep 2021.
