About this study

Official title: Effects of Less-processed Whole Grain Bread Products (Wheat and Fortified With Legumes) on Postprandial Glucose and Subsequent Metabolic Responses.

The structural properties of bread are considered one of the most important factors that can affect its digestibility, glucose homeostasis and postprandial metabolic responses. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of consumption of less processed whole grain bread products (wheat and fortified with legumes) in comparison with finely milled whole grain bread products on postprandial glycaemic response and appetite regulation.

Read the detailed description

Postprandial glucose response caused by bread products of different degree of processing, as well as their appetite regulating properties will be evaluated. In the intervention there are totally four samples, the reference (white wheat bread), the less processed whole wheat bread, the whole wheat bread fortified with finely milled legumes (chickpeas), the whole wheat bread fortified with less processed legumes (chickpeas). The volunteers that will be enrolled in the study should be apparently healthy subjects (women and men) with normal body weight. Certain effects related to the structure of the different products on glycemic and insulinemic responses, subjective appetite ratings and other parameters will be examined.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) after consumption of the breads compared to the iAUC after consumption of the reference food.

    Blood glucose concentration will be measured for each participant before and after the test foods, with blood samples being collected at specific time points: 0 (before food consumption), 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 minutes postprandially for each food.

    Measured: Time points: 0 (before food consumption), 30, 45, 60, 90,120,180 minutes postprandially (4 times in total).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subjective appetite ratings

    Subjective evaluation of hunger, satiety, and desire to eat with Visual Analogue Scales, before the consumption and 30, 60, 90, 120, 180 minutes after (0-100 mm with 0 indicating no hunger or perceived ability to consume food/no satiety or no fullness). Difference in perception of these parameters will be measured and compared between the experimental condition and the control condition.

    Measured: Time points: 0 (before food consumption), 30, 60, 90,120,180 minutes postprandially (4 times in total).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Finely milled whole wheat-legume bread, Less processed whole wheat-legume bread and Less processed whole wheat bread in people with Postprandial Hyperglycemia, run by Harokopio University at 1 site in Greece.

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 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 5 Mar 2024. 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 Greece. 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?

Change in glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) after consumption of the breads compared to the iAUC after consumption of the reference food. (time frame: Time points: 0 (before food consumption), 30, 45, 60, 90,120,180 minutes postprandially (4 times in total).). 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 5 Mar 2024.
