What is being measured

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

  1. HOMA-IR (Homeostasis modelling assessment-Insulin resistance)

    A venous blood sample collected for the measurement of insulin and glucose levels.

    Measured: One venous sample collected after 8 hours of fasting

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Fasting bood glucose levels

    A venous blood sample collected for the measurement of glucose levels

    Measured: One venous sample collected after 8 hours of fasting

  2. HbA1C

    Fingerprick sample

    Measured: Sample collected at one single time point with no follow-up

  3. Body fat percentage

    Body fat percentage measured through DEXA

    Measured: Measurement conducted in the morning after 8 hours of fasting

  4. Central and brachial Systolic and Diastolic Blood pressure

    Blood pressure measured using a digital sphygmomanometer

    Measured: Measurement taken 3 times after a-10 minute rest

  5. Augmentation index

    Arterial stiffness assessment test

    Measured: Measurement taken 3 times after a-10 minute rest

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Overweight and Obesity, run by Liverpool Hope University at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 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 Kingdom. 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?

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?

HOMA-IR (Homeostasis modelling assessment-Insulin resistance) (time frame: One venous sample collected after 8 hours of fasting). 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 10 May 2021.
