About this study

The glycemic index (GI) is used to evaluate the level of elevated blood sugar immediately after carbohydrate intake and is a classified indicator of the glycemic potential of carbohydrate-containing test foods relative to reference foods. At present, more and more clinical studies have proved that a low-GI diet is beneficial to health, and can improve blood glucose control, weight and blood lipid levels in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). GI is currently widely used to provide guidance on food choices for people with diabetes. However, there are great differences in blood glucose response among different individuals after eating the same food, which is related to a variety of factors,including individual gastrointestinal digestion and absorption rate,islet function,insulin resistance and region. A large number of foreign studies suggest that race affects the determination of GI, but different regions of our country have different dietary culture and different ability to digest and absorb different foods. Therefore, the traditional GI reference value does not necessarily fully reflect the blood glucose response of diabetic patients after eating a food. In this study, continuous blood glucose monitoring was carried out through CGM to monitor the overall fluctuation level of blood glucose, the time to peak and the range of blood glucose fluctuation after eating specific foods, and to obtain individual GI, after eating different diets to guide the future diet.

Read the detailed description

In this study, subjects with diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance were given continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for 3 consecutive days, given a standard meal containing 50g carbohydrates and foods to be tested for GI. The purpose of this study was to explore the fluctuation of blood glucose, the time and range of blood glucose peak after eating different diets, and to guide the individual dietary choices of the subjects. And try to find the best time and dose of hypoglycemic strategy for subjects during meals. At the same time, during the follow-up period, we observed whether the subjects could achieve better blood glucose control after adjusting their diet according to the GI of different foods. At the same time, the GI results of the same food were compared between people with normal glucose metabolism and those with abnormal glucose metabolism.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Specific diet in people with Diabetes, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 24 Sep 2020. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Weigang Zhao, MD (+86 69151876, xiehezhaoweigang@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

fluctuation of blood glucose after eating different food (time frame: baseline). 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 24 Sep 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
