Official title: Balanced Nutritional Diet Intervention on Body Composition Among Different FTO RS9939609 Gene in Obese Young Women In Bandung, Indonesia: A Randomised Controlled Trial

Food intake along with the gene are important factors that influence human nutrition status and health. Indonesia has a balanced nutrition diet guide for ideal food consumption. The FTO rs9939609 gene is known to be related to obesity. This study aimed to examine the effect of a balanced nutritional diet intervention on body composition among different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of the FTO rs9939609 gene in obese young women in Bandung City, West Java, Indonesia.

Read the detailed description

A Balanced Nutrition Diet is a group of food menus that contain carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals which are prepared based on the principles of diversity, balanced, regular and safe proportions in types and quantities that suit the body's needs adapted from the My Meal Dish Content/"Isi Piringku"; and "Tumpeng Gizi Seimbang" rule based on the Balanced Nutrition Guidelines of the Republic of Indonesia Minister of Health Regulation No. 41 year 2014. Although a balanced nutritional diet has not been widely used as a dietary intervention for obese people compared to the Mediterranean diet, there is research that shows that providing a low-calorie balanced nutritional diet based on traditional Indonesian food for 8 weeks can reduce body weight and body mass index, waist circumference, and body fat percentage of the research subjects were statistically significant.

Apart from eating habits, genetic factors also play an important role in the development of obesity. One of the most important genes associated with obesity is the FTO (fat mass and obesity-related) gene located on chromosome 16. Several polymorphisms in the FTO gene are known to be associated with increased body mass index (BMI) and other anthropometric values, severe obesity conditions, and risk of diabetes mellitus, although there are differences in different ethnicities. Several studies have also examined the association of the FTO gene with several parameters related to cardiovascular risk. The FTO rs9939609 gene polymorphism is one of the genes commonly studied in relation to obesity. The rs9939609 FTO gene consists of TT, TA, and AA genotypes. Allele A is a group of mutant genotypes or is called a risk allele (TA and AA) while TT is a group of wild genotypes or is considered a non-risk allele.

Evidence suggests that compared with TT wild type, the risk allele A FTO rs9939609 gene showed significantly higher body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio. The waist-hip circumference ratio is a stronger indicator of cardiovascular disease than body mass index. The A allele carriers of the FTO rs9939609 polymorphism had a higher fat percentage. Until now, no one has ever linked the FTO gene polymorphism and the Balanced Nutrition Diet intervention, which is a reference in Indonesia, as well as its effect on the body composition of obese young women, especially in Sundanese ethnicity. This study aimed to examine the effect of a balanced nutritional diet intervention on body composition among 2 types of the FTO rs9939609 gene in obese young women in Bandung City, Indonesia.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Balanced Nutritional DietDietary supplement

    Food was provided during the intervention period 3 (three) times each day, i.e. breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food menu used a 30-day menu cycle. The characteristics of the Balanced Nutrition Diet that have been provided based on the distribution of the composition of the macronutrients that will be intervened in are as follows: 45-55% carbohydrates, 15-20% protein, and 20-25% fat (Ministry of Health 2014). The type of diet and portions that were given were the same for each menu unless there were certain food restrictions or allergies, and then the type of food was adjusted specifically to that individual. The calories that will be given range from 300-400 Cal for breakfast, 400-500 Cal for lunch, and 300-500 Cal for dinner.

    The choice of carbohydrates should be varied and prioritise complex carbohydrates such as whole grains. The choice of protein type is prioritised from low-fat protein sources and half of it is vegetable protein.

  • Nutritional EducationBehavioural

    Nutritional education is provided via online Zoom meetings with the help of educational media in the form of PowerPoint presentations/videos before entering the intervention period. The educational material that will be provided is regarding Guidelines for Balanced Nutrition, Food Safety, and Healthy Lifestyles (stress management and sleep time). The subject's understanding of the material provided was evaluated using an online quiz platform.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Body Compostition

    Body composition will be measured twice, i.e. before randomization and 28 days after randomization. The measurement include body weight (kg); body height (cm); Body Mass Index (kg/m2); Waist circumference (cm); Hip circumference (cm); Waist-hip ratio; Visceral fat; Fat percentage (%); Resting metabolism (Cal); Total subcutaneous fat (%); Subcutaneous trunk (%); Subcutaneous arms (%); Subcutaneous legs (%); Total skeletal muscle (%); Skeletal trunk (%); Skeletal arms (%); Skeletal legs (%)

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Balanced Nutritional Diet and Nutritional Education in people with Obese Women, run by Universitas Padjadjaran at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 4 Jun 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 Indonesia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 of Body Compostition (time frame: 28 days). 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 4 Jun 2024.
