Trial summary

The aim of the current study was to clarify the relationship between protein intake and health by using a very large, general population cohort study, UK Biobank, to study the associations between reported protein intake (expressed in g/day, g/kg/day and % of total energy intake) and three health outcomes (all-cause… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Relationship Between Dietary Protein Intake and Fatal and Non-fatal Health Outcomes in 180,031 UK Biobank Participants

The aim of the current study was to clarify the relationship between protein intake and health by using a very large, general population cohort study, UK Biobank, to study the associations between reported protein intake (expressed in g/day, g/kg/day and % of total energy intake) and three health outcomes (all-cause mortality, incidence CVD and cancer).

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality

    Date and cause of death were obtained from death certificates

    Measured: Mean of 7 years

  2. CVD incidence

    Date and cause of hospital admissions were identified via record linkage to Health Episode Statistics (HES) records for England and Wales and to the Scottish Morbidity Records (SMR01) for Scotland

    Measured: Mean of 6.1 years

  3. cancer incidence

    Data on cancer diagnoses for participants resident in England and Wales is provided to UK Biobank by the Medical Research Information Service, based at the National Health Service Information Centre (http://www.ic.nhs.uk/services/medical-research-informationservice). The Information Services Division (http://www.isdscotland.org/HealthTopics/Cancer/), which is a part of NHS Scotland, provides UK Biobank with the cancer data records for participants resident in Scotland.

    Measured: Mean of 6.1 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Diseases and Cancer, run by University of Glasgow.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 9 Aug 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?

All-cause mortality (time frame: Mean of 7 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Aug 2017.
