About this study

Official title: Effects of Short-term Sugary Beverage Consumption on Type-2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Our goal is to determine how the addition of sugar-sweetened beverages to the diet affects glucose control, cardiovascular disease risk factors, and pulmonary function in healthy, young adults.

Read the detailed description

In a 3-arm randomized controlled trial, 36 participants consumed one of three beverages for three weeks: water (W), caffeine-free soda (S), or 100% fruit juice (FJ). Participants consumed two servings/day (~710mL) of their randomized beverage for three weeks, along with their habitual diets. At baseline and following the 3-week intervention, participants completed glucose control, cardiovascular disease risk factor, and pulmonary function assessments.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in glucose iAUC

    Glucose obtained from blood sample in a fasted state and in response to a meal

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change in plasma lipids

    Total cholesterol (TC), LDL-c , VLDL-c, HDL-c , triglycerides (TG) from blood sample in a fasted state and following consumption of a meal

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  2. Change in homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance

    Calculated from fasting glucose and insulin values

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  3. Change in blood pressure

    Evaluated via automated sphygmomanometer.

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  4. Change in BMI

    Weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m^2

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  5. Change in pulmonary function

    Assessed using the maximum flow-volume loop

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  6. Change in insulin iAUC

    Glucose obtained from blood sample in a fasted state and in response to a meal

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

  7. Change in serum fructosamine

    Fructosamine obtained from blood sample

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sugary beverage: Fruit juice and Sugary beverage: Soda in people with Metabolic Syndrome, run by Kansas State University at 1 site in United States.

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 4 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 8 Oct 2019. 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 United States. 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?

Change in glucose iAUC (time frame: Week 0 and Week 3). 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 8 Oct 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
