About this study

This study investigated the beneficial effects of soybean on the renal function, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses in patients with end-stage diabetic nephropathy (DN).

Read the detailed description

DN outpatients were recruited from Tung's Taichung MetroHarbor Hospital (Taichung City, Taiwan). They were randomly separated into two groups; one group was given soy protein drink and the other group was given casein drink for 4 months. The blood pressure, plasma glucose, lipid profile, renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate, eGFR), inflammatory factor levels were analyzed at the baseline and at the end of the study.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing soy protein drink and casein protein drink in people with Diabetic Nephropathies, run by Taipei Medical University.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

24-hours dietary recall (time frame: Change from Baseline and 4th and 7th week, the intervention will last for 4 months and follow up for 3 months). The study lists 8 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 3 May 2023.
