About this study

Official title: Role of Dietary Protein in a Familiar Breakfast Meal on Subjective Satiety, Food Intake and Thermic Effect of Food in Normal Weight and Overweight/Obese Children

Objectives: To determine the effect of protein content of familiar breakfast meals on subjective appetite, food intake (FI), glycemic response and Thermic Effect of Food (TEF) in normal weight (NW) and overweight (OW)/obese (OB) children.

Specific Objectives:

1a.To determine the effect of familiar breakfast meals (450 kcal containing eggs and varying in protein content (15, 30, and 45g) on subjective appetite, glycemic response and food intake at a test meal 4 h later in NW and. OW/OB children.

1b. To describe the effect of isocaloric (450 kcal) familiar breakfasts either high in protein (optimal protein from Objective 1a) or low in protein on TEF and substrate utilization over 5 h in NW and OW/OB children.

Read the detailed description

Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that increasing the high-quality protein content of a breakfast meal will dose dependently increase subjective satiety, lower FI and glycemic response, and increase the TEF in both NW and OW/OB children.

What is being measured

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

  1. 1a) Ad libitum food intake (in kcal)

    Measured: Four hours after breakfast

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. 1b) The thermic effect of a high versus low protein meal

    REE will be determined by indirect calorimetry under a ventilated hood (ParvoMedics TrueOne 2400 automated metabolic gas analysis system, Parvo Medics, USA)

    Measured: Resting energy expenditure (REE) at baseline and up to five hours post test meal

  2. Subjective Appetite

    Measured: Assessed every 15 min for 4 h

  3. Blood glucose response

    Finger prick capillary blood glucose (in mmol/L) at baseline, after breakfast (30 min), at 60 min, and in 1h intervals onward

    Measured: Measures at 15, or 60 min intervals for 4 h

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low Protein Meal, Moderate Protein Meal and High Protein Meal in people with Overweight and Obesity, run by Toronto Metropolitan University at 1 site in Canada.

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 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 30 Sep 2020. 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 Canada. 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?

1a) Ad libitum food intake (in kcal) (time frame: Four hours after breakfast). 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 30 Sep 2020.
