About this study

Official title: The Effect of Consumption of UV-C Enriched Foods on Biochemical Findings in Adults With Vitamin D Deficiency

This study is an experimental design study in which demographic characteristics, food consumption, biochemical parameters and anthropometric measurements of individuals with low vitamin D levels before and after consuming UV-enriched foods will be examined.

Read the detailed description

It was designed to be applied to individuals with low vitamin D levels working in Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital who meet the research conditions.

n the first phase of the study, demographic information will be recorded by asking demographic information from the people who volunteered to participate in the study and who meet the study criteria by using a questionnaire form and 3-day food consumption record information by face-to-face interview technique; anthropometric measurements of the participants will be taken and baseline blood values will be recorded. At the beginning of the experimental study, individuals will be randomized by computer-assisted randomization into four different groups. Biochemical analyses will be analyzed every two weeks, analyses will be repeated 1 month after the study and the effects of vitamin D enrichment on biochemical parameters will be determined.

What is being measured

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

  1. Vitamin D values

    During study, Vitamin D values are evaluated.

    Measured: Pre-intervention, through study completion, an average of every two weeks and 1 month after the completion of the intervention

  2. Biochemical parameters

    Ca and parathormone are evaluated during the study.

    Measured: Pre-intervention, through study completion, an average of every two weeks and 1 month after the completion of the intervention

  3. Demographic parameters

    Demographic values (age, gender, etc.) are also investigated.

    Measured: Pre-intervention

  4. Food consumption record

    Before starting the study and after the end of study the food consumption of participants are evaluated.

    Measured: Pre-intervention, through study completion, an average of every two weeks and 1 month after the completion of the intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitamin D status in people with Vitamin d Deficiency, run by Okan University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 9 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Vitamin D values (time frame: Pre-intervention, through study completion, an average of every two weeks and 1 month after the completion of the intervention). The study lists 4 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 25 Oct 2023.
