About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Anthropometric Measurements and Biochemical Parameters in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Patients and Healthy Individuals

The aim of this study; Which anthropometric measurement and ratio (BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, neck circumference, waist-height ratio, body shape index, body roundness index, visceral adiposity index) is a better indicator in healthy individuals with NAFLD and their biochemical parameters is to evaluate.

Read the detailed description

NAFLD patients included in the study should sign a voluntary consent form, do not consume alcohol, be between 30-64 years old, have been diagnosed with NAFLD by applying to the gastroenterology outpatient clinic, have no other diseases, and should not use medication. Healthy individuals; they were required to sign the voluntary consent form, not consume alcohol, be between 30-64 years old, and not have any acute or chronic diseases. Individuals outside these criteria were not included in the study. The reason for the 30-64 age limit for individuals with NAFLD in the study is that NAFLD is more common in this age group. The same criteria were also taken into account in healthy individuals to avoid differences between groups. Individuals who met the inclusion criteria of the study and accepted to participate in the study voluntarily were selected by random sampling method and the sample of the study was formed. For the study, research permission was obtained from Gülhane Training and Research Hospital and ethical approval of the study from Ankara University Ethics Committee (56786525-050.04.04/236883). Written and verbal consent was obtained from the patients before starting the study. The research was conducted in accordance with both the Declarations of Helsinki and Istanbul. Biochemical Parameters Fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL, VLDL, LDL, ALP, AST, ALT and GGT values of the individuals participating in the study were obtained from the files with the permission of the patients.

Anthropometric Measurements The data were collected using a questionnaire form and face-to-face interview method. In the study, individuals' body weight (kg), height (cm), waist circumference (cm), hip circumference (cm), neck circumference (cm) measurements were taken in accordance with the method, and these measurement values were used to measure BMI, waist-height ratio, waist-hip ratio, body composition (fat mass, muscle mass, etc.), body shape index, body roundness index, visceral adiposity index measurements were calculated. Body mass index was calculated by dividing the body weight by the square of the height. Other anthropometric measurements and ratios were calculated using appropriate formulas.

Being tested
In the study, biochemical parameters will be taken from the anthropometric measurements and files of the patients without any intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Body weight

    Body weight measurements of the patients will be made by removing thick clothes and shoes, and by means of TANITA BC-418 MA brand Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA).

    Measured: Six month

  2. Height

    The height of the patients will be measured with a stadiometer while the feet are together and the head is in the Frankford plane.

    Measured: Six month

  3. Body fat percentage

    The body fat mass of individuals will be measured with the TANITA BC-418 MA BIA analyzer.

    Measured: Six month

  4. Neck circumference

    Measure with a non-stretchable tape measure horizontally at the upper edge of the laryngeal prominence with the head upright and eyes facing forward.

    Measured: Six month

  5. Waist circumference

    The patient's side will be passed to the side of the patient and the circumference passing through the middle point will be measured between the lowest point of the rib bone and the iliac crest.

    Measured: Six month

  6. Hip circumference

    The largest circumference between the waist and knees will be measured by going to the side of the patient.

    Measured: Six month

  7. Body mass index

    It will be calculated by dividing the body weight by the square of the height

    Measured: Six month

  8. Waist-to-length ratio

    It is the ratio of waist circumference to height.

    Measured: Six month

  9. Waist to hip ratio

    It is the ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference.

    Measured: Six month

  10. Body shape index

    Body shape index of patients; with height, waist circumference and BMI values; It will be calculated using the formula [Waist circumference/ (BKİ )2/3* Height 1/2].

    Measured: Six month

  11. Body roundness index

    The body roundness index of the patients will be calculated using the formula [364.2-365.5x√1-[(waist circumference/(2π))2/(0.5 x height)2].

    Measured: Six month

  12. Visceral adiposity index

    Patients' visceral adiposity index for men: [Waist circumference/ 39.68 + (1.88 × [BMI])] × [(TG)/1.03] × (1.31/HDL); for women: will be calculated using the formulas [Waist circumference /36.58 + (1.89 × BMI)] × (TG/0.81) × (1.52/HDL).

    Measured: Six month

An observational study of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, run by Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 10 inclusion and 12 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 12 Apr 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Body weight (time frame: Six month). The study lists 12 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 12 Apr 2023.
