About this study

The main aim of this study is to determine the inter-day reliability, by using indirect calorimetry, of the post-prandial macronutrient oxidation and energy expenditure after consuming oral glucose load solution.

Read the detailed description

The maintenance of blood glucose concentrations and the oxidation of carbohydrate after consuming carbohydrate is related with a low risk of mortality and morbidity from cardiometabolic diseases. The oral glucose tolerance test is a diagnostic test widely used in the clinical field. However, its inter-day reliability has not been deeply studied. Therefore, it is of clinical interest to study the inter-day reliability of the diagnostic test oral glucose tolerance test using indirect calorimetry and monitoring the response of the glucose levels.

20 young adults will undergo two trials visit with 7 days of separation between conditions. Each evaluation day will conform to the following tests:

  1. Basal metabolic rate assessment through indirect calorimetry.
  2. Basal heart rate variability through heart rate monitor.
  3. Intake of the corresponding glucose load solution.
  4. Postprandial nutrient oxidation and energy expenditure assessment through indirect calorimetry
  5. Glucose monitoring through Glucose meter.

What participants receive

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

  • Oral glucose tolerance testDiagnostic test

    Participants will ingest 75g anhydrous glucose dissolved in a volume of 200mL of water (NUTER.TEC GLUCOS, Subra, Toulouse, France).

Study groups in NCT04320433
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ExperimentalExperimentalParticipants will undergo two trials visit (with a week of separation). During the visits they will ingest an oral glucose load solution (oral glucose tolerance test) and gas exchange will be measured over the following 3-hours. The glucose levels will be monitored through a Glucose meter in different time frames.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oral glucose tolerance test in people with Glucose Intolerance, run by Universidad de Granada at 1 site in Spain.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 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 Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jonatan Ruiz Ruiz, Dr. (958242754 ext. 34, ruizj@ugr.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Inter-day reliability, 7 days apart, in post-prandial nutrient oxidation (time frame: 7 days). 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 NCT04320433, 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 25 Mar 2020.
