About this study

Official title: Genetic Association of Glucocorticoid Receptor Gene Polymorphisms With Binge Eating Disorders in Type 2 Diabetic Obese Female Adolescents

The aim of the present study was to specifically screen obese diabetic adolescent female individuals for BED, checking the variants of the GR gene (rs56149945; rs41423247) amongst identified individuals, and this led to assessing the impact of binge eating disorders on glycaemic control in obese diabetic adolescent females in Pakistan, South Asia.

Read the detailed description

Challenges in eating for diabetic adolescents can be categorized as eating disorders (ED) and disordered eating symptoms (DES). Binge-eating disorder (BED) is defined as recurrent episodes of binge eating at least once a week over a three-month time period and it is accompanied by feeling the lack of control and marked distress over one's eating behaviour. The aim of the present study was to specifically screen obese diabetic adolescent female individuals for BED, checking the variants of the GR gene (rs56149945; rs41423247) amongst identified individuals, and this led to assessing the impact of binge eating disorders on glycaemic control in obese diabetic adolescent females in Pakistan, South Asia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BED Questionnaire in people with Binge-Eating Disorder and Eating Disorders, run by Corporacion Parc Tauli at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 5 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 9 Mar 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 Pakistan. 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?

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?

BED (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 9 Mar 2021.
