About this study

Official title: Dietary Fiber in Nutritional Therapy for Chronic Diseases

The prevalence of chronic disease is increasing rapidly in China. Medical nutritional therapy (MNT) is essential for the prevention and control of chronic diseases. For example, dietary fiber plays an important role in chronic disease management. Evidence suggests that increasing fiber intake can decrease the risk of chronic diseases, such as overweight/obesity, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, GI diseases, etc. However, according to the nation-wide survey, the dietary fiber intake of Chinese people shows a downward trend in recent years, and the relationship between dietary fiber and metabolism of chronic patients is still controversial. So, this study aims to explore the effects of dietary fiber on metabolism, inflammatory factors and nutritional status among patients with chronic diseases, so as to provide reference for proper nutrition intervention towards chronic disease.

Read the detailed description

Investigators plan to recruit potential participants in hospital clinics using posters. An anticipated total of 120 patients with chronic diseases (including overweight, obesity, hyperlipemia, hyperglycemia, etc) will be randomized to receive oat beta-glucans (study group) or routine nutrition management (control group) respectively. The outcome parameters, including weight, blood glucose level, blood fat level, etc, will be measured and compared over a 12-week intervention period. Intention-to-treat analysis (ITT) and per-protocol analysis (PP) will be conducted in statistical analysis.
