Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: 250 patients (124 females and 126 males, mean age 61.9 ± 8.5 years)

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with type 2 diabetes
  • Available resting energy expenditure assessed by indirect calorimetry

Who cannot join

  • data on ongoing therapy (e.g. lifestyle measures with or without approved drugs), anthropometric or laboratory parameters (including white blood count, estimated glomerular filtration rate, TSH), or REE assessed by the means of indirect calorimetry could not be retrieved
  • presenting with conditions known to affect indirect calorimetry (e.g. patients with strenuous exercise on the day before, asymptomatic patients with severe chronic kidney disease (eGFR < 30 ml/min/ 1.73 m2), increased white blood count, or subnormal TSH)

About this study

The present study evaluated the statistical and clinical performance of the six common equations in subjects with type 2 diabetes adopting indirect calorimetry as reference standard

Read the detailed description

All consecutive subjects with type 2 diabetes referred from June 2012 to December 2019 were eligible. They were excluded if data on ongoing therapy, anthropometric or laboratory parameters, or measured REE was not available or if presenting with conditions known to affect indirect calorimetry.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Azienda Ospedaliera Specializzata in Gastroenterologia Saverio de Bellis at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 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 28 Jul 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 Italy. 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?

Body weight (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 6 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 28 Jul 2020.
