About this study

Official title: Dynamic Effect of Gastrointestinal Hormones on Cerebral Mechanisms Involved in Brain Perception of Food Pictures After Bariatric Surgery

This is a cross-sectional study enrolling

  • 11 weight-stable, formerly obese female patients 1-5 years after Roux-en-Y gastric Bypass (RYGB)
  • 11 age- and weight-matched female subjects
  • 10 normal weight (Body Mass Index 19-25 kg/m2) subjects The following measurements will be performed in each participants in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and after ingestion of a standard meal
  • electroencephalographic recordings of visually evoked potential after presentation of food- or non-food pictures
  • plasma concentration of metabolites (glucose, fatty acids), glucoregulatory hormones (insulin, glucagon), gastro-intestinal hormones (Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (GIP), Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP1), ghrelin,Cholecystokinin (CCK), and bile acids Aims of this observational study are
  • to evaluate the effects of RYGB on brain perception of food related visual stimulation
  • to search for relationships between RYGB effects on brain responses and gastro-intestinal hormone secretion

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes of visually-evoked EEG potentials after ingestion of a meal

    Recording and analysis of visual evoked potentials (VEPs) while patients categorize photographs of foods and non-food kitchen utensils

    Measured: basal, 120 min postprandial and 240 postprandial

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. changes in plasma triglyceride concentration after ingestion of a meal

    Measurement of triglyceride concentrations at 30-60 min intervals in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and over 6 hours after ingestion of a standard meal)

    Measured: basal, 90 min postprandial and 180 postprandial

  2. Changes in plasma glucoincretins (GLP1 and GIP) concentrations after ingestion of a meal

    Measurement of GLP1 and GIP concentrations at 30-60 min intervals in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and over 6 hours after ingestion of a standard meal)

    Measured: basal, 90 min postprandial and 180 postprandial

  3. Changes in plasma cholecystokinin concentrations after ingestion of a meal

    Measurement of cholecystokinin concentrations at 30-60 min intervals in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and over 6 hours after ingestion of a standard meal)

    Measured: basal, 90 min postprandial and 180 postprandial

  4. Changes in plasma bile acids concentrations after ingestion of a meal

    Measurement of bile acids concentrations at 30-60 min intervals in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and over 6 hours after ingestion of a standard meal)

    Measured: basal, 90 min postprandial and 180 postprandial

  5. changes in plasma glucoregulatory status after ingestion of a meal

    Measurement of glucose, insulin, glucagon and non-esterified fatty acid concentrations at 30-60 min intervals in basal conditions (after an overnight fast) and over 6 hours after ingestion of a standard meal)

    Measured: basal, 90 min postprandial and 180 postprandial

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obesity, run by University of Lausanne at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 10 Jun 2014. 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 Switzerland. 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?

Changes of visually-evoked EEG potentials after ingestion of a meal (time frame: basal, 120 min postprandial and 240 postprandial). 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 10 Jun 2014.
