Trial summary

About 2.6 billion people ( about 40 % of the world 's population ) are affected by overweight or obesity. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in Chinese adults has exceeded 50 %, and the prevalence is still on the rise.The gut microbiota is regarded as an endocrine organ and participates in energy balance.

About this study

About 2.6 billion people ( about 40 % of the world 's population ) are affected by overweight or obesity. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in Chinese adults has exceeded 50 %, and the prevalence is still on the rise.The gut microbiota is regarded as an endocrine organ and participates in energy balance. Diet changes can disrupt the relationship between the microbiota and the host, leading to metabolic diseases.Although human studies provide important information, there are limitations, such as the entry of complex gastrointestinal environment limiting components, the lack of dynamic microbial process information, and the uncertainty of drug side effects. In vitro methods can solve these problems, allowing dynamic sampling, standardized operation, high repeatability, and evaluation of potential toxins and pathogens. In vitro models are widely used to evaluate the effects on the human colon microbiome and to predict in vivo results.Based on the above research background, this study aims to collect fecal samples from obese people to construct an in vitro intestinal microbial ecological simulation system. This will lay an experimental foundation for further exploring the effect of specific nutrient intervention on the composition and function of gut microbiota in obese people.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obese Subjects, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine 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 1 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 7 Jan 2025. 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?

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?

intestinal microflora (time frame: 2025.10). 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 7 Jan 2025.
