About this study

In this open-label, acute intervention study, we will recruit 120 sex-matched participants aged 20-70 years (100 normal or overweight/obese subjects and 20 Mets subjects). They will be assigned to one of the six groups according to age, BMI and with and without MetS and have a standardized mixed macronutrient tolerance test (MMTT) by orally administered a 400-ml beverage (75g glucose, 60g lipid, and 20g protein). Fasting and postprandial blood, and urine and fecal samples will be collected. The primary aim is to establish a more comprehensive system to quantify different aspects of metabolic health based on fasting and postprandial data. The study protocol has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences.

Read the detailed description

The recruited 120 subjects (60 men and 60 women aged 20-70 years) will be recruited according to the followings: 1) individuals aged 20-29 years with normal weight (18.5 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 24 kg/m2); 2) individuals aged 30-49 years with normal weight; 3) individuals aged 30-49 years with overweight/obesity (BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2); 4) individuals aged 50-70 years with normal weight; 5) individuals aged 50-70 years with overweight/obesity; and 6) individuals aged 30-70 years with MetS. A standard questionnaire will be use to collect Information like lifestyle factors, nighttime sleep duration; anthropometric measurements will be performed. Blood samples will be collected via a catheter at fasting state (t = 0 min) and 5 successive time points post-MMTT (t = 30, 60, 120, 180 and 240 min). At t = 0 ,1 and 2 h, the fingertip blood will be collected as well. Body composition will be measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). All these samples will be used to the assessment of blood chemistry, metabolomics, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), gut microbiota etc.

What is being measured

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

  1. Health state map (HSM)

    A two-dimensional system comprising "Health Phenotype Score" for fasting features and "Homeostatic Resilience Score" for post-MMTT features will be built. We want to investigate whether HSM is more informative than a one-dimensional model with fasting data and the Mixed-score model combining fasting and postprandial data. Features includes BMI, blood pressure, HbA1c, body compositions, glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triacylglycerol, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma- glutamyl transpeptidase, C-reactive protein, free triiodothyronine, free thyroxine, thyroid stimulating hormone, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide-1, adiponectin, leptin, intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, inflammatory factors (such as interleukin, -6, -8 and 1b, and tumor Necrosis Factor-α), and targeted metabolites (such as amino acids, acylcarnitines).

    Measured: fasting (t = 0 min), postprandial (t = 30, 60, 120, 180, 240 min)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Standard mixed macronutrients tolerance test in people with Healthy and Metabolic Syndrome, run by Chinese Academy of Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 8 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 6 Sep 2023. 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 China. 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?

Health state map (HSM) (time frame: fasting (t = 0 min), postprandial (t = 30, 60, 120, 180, 240 min)). 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 6 Sep 2023.
