What is being measured

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

  1. Body Fat Percentage

    Body fat percentage will be tested using the InBody 770. This test will take less than 5 minutes to complete. The InBody 770 calculates the measured data using bioelectrical impedance. The testing will be done in the morning around the same time for each participant. Participants will be asked to refrain from eating or drinking that morning to be able to get the most accurate reading.

    Measured: change between baseline and visit 5 (six weeks after date of enrollment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nutrition education and no nutrition education in people with Sedentary Lifestyle, run by Loma Linda 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 29 Jan 2020. 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. 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?

Body Fat Percentage (time frame: change between baseline and visit 5 (six weeks after date of enrollment)). 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 29 Jan 2020.
