What participants receive

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

  • Legume enriched diet groupBehavioural

    • Replacing 1/3 refined rice intake with legumes three times per day
    • Vegetable intake at least six units (30-70 g/unit) per day for sufficient dietary fiber intake
    • Regular 30-min walk after dinner each day

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes of BMI

    Changes of weight in kilograms was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Changes of height in meters was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Weight and height were combined to report BMI in kg/m^2.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Changes of Insulin Resistance (IR)

    Changes of fasting serum glucose in mmol/L was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Changes of fasting insulin in μIU/mL was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Fasting insulin and fasting glucose were combined to report IR using the following equation: homeostasis model assessment (HOMA)-IR=[fasting insulin (μIU/mL)×fasting glucose (mmol/L)] /22.5.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Changes of lipid profiles

    Triglyceride in mg/dL was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Total-cholesterol in mg/dL was assessed before and after the intervention.

    HDL-cholesterol in mg/dL was assessed before and after the intervention.

    LDL-cholesterol was indirectly estimated using the friedewald formula: LDL-cholesterol= total-cholesterol-[HDL-cholesterol+(triglycerides/5)].

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Changes of serum high C-reactive

    Changes of serum high C-reactive in mg/L was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  5. Changes of urinary 8-epi-PGF2α

    Changes of urinary 8-epi-PGF2α in pg/mg creatinine was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  6. Changes of adiponectin

    Changes of adiponectin in ng/mL was assessed before and after the intervention.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Legume enriched diet group in people with Obese, run by Yonsei University.

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 22 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Changes of BMI (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Jan 2021.
