Read the detailed description

Objective: To assess the frequency of fibromyalgia among women with impaired fasting glucose.

Materials and Methods: The sample was selected from the patients who applied to the Internal Medicine clinic and whose fasting blood glucose level were ≥100 and <126 mg/dL in their routine examination [Group1 ] and patients whose fasting blood glucose were less than 100 constituted the control group [Group2 ]. Oral glucose tolerance test [OGTT ] has been applied to patients with impaired fasting glucose and whose 2nd hour OGTT levels were under 140 has been included. Patients were evaluated in terms of fibromyalgia according to modified 2010 ACR Fibromiyalgia Criteria. Functional status was assessed by using the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire [FIQ ].

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)Diagnostic test

    Implementation of OGTT: The patient was seated in a quiet room after 10-12 h of overnight fasting, and blood samples were drawn. Thereafter, 75 g glucose solution dissolved in 300 mL of water was administeredwithin 5 min. Two hours after this,another blood sample was drawn. During the test, the patient wasn't allowed to rest and eat, but not smoke.

Study groups in NCT03871946
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Experimental groupExperimental group subjects with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (Group 1) underwent an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and patients with levels > 140 mg/dL at the 2nd hour were excluded because they were diagnosed with "impaired glucose tolerance"
Receives: Diagnostic Test: oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
control groupThe control group (Group 2) comprised 73 patients whose fasting blood glucose level was <100 mg/dL and who agreed to participate in the study.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

What is being measured

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

  1. the frequency of fibromyalgia among women with impaired fasting glucose.

    Moreover, a significantly higher proportion of Group 1 patients (26%, n = 19) than Group 2 patients (11%, n = 8) were diagnosed with FM

    Measured: 16 month

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

the frequency of fibromyalgia among women with impaired fasting glucose. (time frame: 16 month). 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.
