Effect of Changing Diet on Fasting and Post Fat Load Lipoproteins
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
Sponsored by: University of Arkansas
Information provided by: University of Arkansas
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00593424
  Purpose

The study examines the effect of two diets on fasting and post fat load lipoproteins of subjects with type 2 diabetes with moderate hypertriglyceridemia.


Condition Intervention
Hypertriglyceridemia
Diabetes Mellitus
Other: Low Fat/High Carbohydrate
Other: High Monounsaturated Fat/Low Carbohydrate

MedlinePlus related topics: Diabetes Triglycerides
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Supportive Care, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Investigator), Crossover Assignment
Official Title: Effect of Changing the Diet to Low Fat/High Carbohydrate or High Monounsaturated Fat/Low Carbohydrate on Fasting and Post Fat Load Lipoproteins of Diabetics With Moderate Hypertriglyceridemia

Further study details as provided by University of Arkansas:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test will be used to evaluate the change in fasting triglycerides with the diets. [ Time Frame: Four times during the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Post-prandial lipids will be evaluated by t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test for AUC of triglyceride and remnant lipoprotein measured by immunoseparation. [ Time Frame: Four times during the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment: 15
Study Start Date: August 2002
Estimated Primary Completion Date: January 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
