About this study

Official title: Postprandial Response of Fresh-squeezed and Processed Orange Juice on Appetite-related Biomarkers and Antioxidant-status in Lean and Obese Subjects

This study aimed investigated the acute intake effect of fresh-squeezed orange juice (FOJ), processed orange juice (POJ), and an isoenergetic orange-flavored drink (control) on postprandial response of blood serum biomarkers (glucose, insulin, leptin and adiponectin), anti-oxidatant status, and prospective food intake in lean and obese subjects.

Read the detailed description

Non-randomized crossover clinical trial, in which eligible participants (n= 36) were allocated in accordance with their body mass index in two groups, lean (n = 18, 9 women/9 men) and obese (n = 18, 9 women/9 men). Subjects of both groups intake of one single dose (5 mL/kg body weight) of isoenergetic beverages in three different phases: (1) fresh-squeezed orange juice (FOJ), (2) commercial processed orange juice (POJ) and (3) an energy and sugars-matched orange-flavored drink (control), with a washout period of seven days among each beverage. Thirty minutes after the intake of each beverage, the participants had a flavonoid-free standard breakfast, which contained coffee (infusion), milk, sugar or sweetener, white bread sandwich with lean ham and light cream cheese, salted and sweet biscuits. Posteriorly, blood samples (10 mL) were collected at 30, 60, 120 and 300 min after each intervention with a catheter installed in a vein of the arm. After blood collection, the volunteers were instructed to record all meals throughout the day, noting the amount eaten of each food. The sample number took into account variations in blood serum glucose with a type I error α = 0.05 and a type II error β = 0.2 (80% power). Primary output were the modification on glucose or insulin concentration induced by different beverages in some point of the curves. The secondary output was the antioxidant activity induced by FOJ and/or POJ. Kolmogorov Smirnov and Levene test, respectively assessed normality and homogeneity of the data. Area under the curve (AUC0-300 min) was calculated by the clearance of the appetite related-biomarkers (glucose, insulin, leptin and adiponectin) during 300 min for each trial phase Other parameters, as maximum concentration (Cmax), and time to reach maximum blood concentration (Tmax) were also estimated. AUC was determined with the trapezoidal method by Microcal Software Inc., Origin® 6.0. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Sidak post hoc was applied to compared the effect of interventions on appetite related-biomarkers, anti-oxidant status and beverage composition. P significance was set up ≤ 0.05.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Orange juiceDietary supplement

    Lean and obese subjects drank one single dose (5 mL/kg body weight) of fresh-squeezed orange juice (FOJ) and processed orange juice (POJ) followed by an ad libitum breakfast. A washout period of seven days among each beverage (FOJ, POJ and control) was applied.

  • ControlDietary supplement

    Lean and obese subjects drank one single dose (5 mL/kg body weight) of an energy and sugars-matched orange-flavored drink (control), followed by an ad libitum breakfast. A washout period of seven days among each beverage (FOJ, POJ and control) was applied.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of the changes on glucose, insulin, leptin, and adiponectin levels over the time times 0, 30, 60, 120, and 300 min

    Determination of glucose, insulin, leptin, adiponectin in the blood serum.

    Measured: Up to 6 month after blood collection of glucose, insulin, leptin, and adiponectin.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Assessment of the changes on blood serum antioxidant biomarkers before and after each beverage intervention

    Determination of TBARS and ABTS in the blood serum.

    Measured: Up to 6 month after blood collection of antioxidant biomarkers (TBARS and ABTS).

  2. Assessing of change on prospective food intake after each beverage intervention

    Evaluation of prospective food intake by 24-h food recall.

    Measured: Up to 3 weeks after the application of each 24-h food recall.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Orange juice in people with Obesity, run by São Paulo State University.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 2 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Assessment of the changes on glucose, insulin, leptin, and adiponectin levels over the time times 0, 30, 60, 120, and 300 min (time frame: Up to 6 month after blood collection of glucose, insulin, leptin, and adiponectin.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03032120, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Feb 2017.
