About this study

Official title: Einfluss Der Postprandialen Glykämie Auf Inaktivitäts-induzierte Veränderungen im Stoffwechsel

Aim of the study is to investigate the impact of glycemic index (provided as soft drinks) on changes in insulin sensitivity, metabolic flexibility, and arterial stiffness in response to detraining.

The investigators hypothesize that low glycemic soft drinks decrease the detraining-induced impairment of insulin sensitivity, metabolic flexibility and arterial stiffness.

Read the detailed description

The duration of the study is 7 weeks: two x 2 weeks intervention (phase A and phase B) with 3 weeks washout phase inbetween. Each 2-week intervention phase consists of an active week followed by an inactive week.

in phase A subjects consume high GI (maltodextrin and sucrose) soft drinks during the inactive week. In phase B subjects consume a low GI soft drink (palatinose) during the inactive week.

subjects were randomly assigned to either start with phase A or with phase B (cross over design).

During the whole study duration all food is provided (55% CHO, 30% fat, 15% protein)

Physical activity will be assessed by a step counter (active phase 7000-10000 steps/d and inactive phase 3000-4000 steps/d).

What is being measured

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

  1. Influence of GI on inactivity-induced changes in insulin sensitivity as measured by an OGTT

    Influence of GI (glycemic index) on detraining-induced changes (difference between the end of high activity and low activity phases) in insulin sensitivity Insulin sensitivity is assessed by HOMA and Matsuda indices

    Measured: the difference between the end of each 1 week activity phase (day 7 vs. day 14, low vs. high physical activity) is compared between high GI and low GI intervention

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Influence of GI on inactivity-induced changes in metabolic flexibility as measured by indirect calorimetry (RER, respiratory exchange ratio)

    Impact of GI on inactivity induced changes in metabolic flexibility Metabolic flexibility is defined as the body´s ability to adapt fuel oxidation to changing fuel availability and energy demand It is measured as change in fasting RER (fasting metabolic flexibility) and change in RQ (difference between the end of high activity and low activity phases) after an oral glucose tolerance test (postprandial metabolic flexibility)

    Measured: the difference between the end of each 1 week activity phase (day 7 vs. day 14) is compared between high GI and low GI intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing soft drinks in people with Healthy, run by University of Hohenheim at 1 site in Germany.

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 18 Nov 2015. 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 Germany. 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?

Influence of GI on inactivity-induced changes in insulin sensitivity as measured by an OGTT (time frame: the difference between the end of each 1 week activity phase (day 7 vs. day 14, low vs. high physical activity) is compared between high GI and low GI intervention). 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 18 Nov 2015.
