About this study

Official title: Study on the Characteristics of Phlegm-Dampness Retention Syndrome and the Spleen and Kidney Yang Deficiency of Dyslipidemia From the Oxidative Stress Enhancement Caused by Inhibition of Serine Metabolic Pathway

Clinical epidemiological investigation and modern statistics will be used. Syndrome was quantified by TCM syndrome score scale. Metabonomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, xanthine oxidation method and thiobarbital method will be used to detect the relevant indicators in serum, urine and tongue coating, and "disease syndrome cell model" will be constructed to detect the relevant indicators. Objective to clarify the epigenetic basis, molecular biological regulation mechanism and core function characteristics of phgdh expression decline caused by PDR and SKYD of dyslipidemia, analyze the correlation between phgdh, serine metabolic pathway product concentration and oxidative stress level, and reveal the scientific connotation of the disease syndrome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Dyslipidemias, run by Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing at 1 site in China.

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 1 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 19 Aug 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 China. 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?

Contact Chao Ye, Doctor (+8615910603713, yechao@bucm.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Routine Blood Examination (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 38 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 19 Aug 2021.
