About this study

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of 6 weeks supplementation of oleuropein on individuals diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. The baseline and end biochemical parameters and anthropometric measurements will be compared with control subjects.

Read the detailed description

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of adding oleuropein to the medical nutrition therapy of individuals with metabolic syndrome on their anthropometric measurements and biochemical parameters.

Sub-objectives of the study;

Determining the presence of inflammation in patiens with metabolic syndrome Determination of the effect of diet and diet combined with oleuropein on both fasting blood glucose, insulin and blood lipid profile.

Determination of both anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic effects of oleuropein. Determination of the effect of diet and diet combined with oleuropein on anthropometric measurements.

The aim of this study is to compare the anthropometric measurements and biomarkers of patients with metabolic syndrome as a result of the medical nutrition therpy with consumption of olive leaf extract (2 times a day) that has been contain 100 mg oleuropein for 6 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in the Fasting Blood Glucose (mg/dl) at 6 weeks

    The fasting blood glucose (mg/dl) at the baseline and 6 weeks later noted from the routinely requested tests in the hospital. These values recorded for all groups.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Change from Baseline in the Insulin (uU/mL) at 6 weeks

    The fasting blood glucose (mg/dl) at the baseline and 6 weeks later noted from the routinely requested tests in the hospital. These values recorded for all groups.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  3. Change from Baseline in the Triglyceride (TG) (mg/dl), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C) (mg/dl), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (mg/dl), Total Cholesterol (mg/dl) at 6 weeks

    Triglyceride (TG) (mg/dl), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C) (mg/dl), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (mg/dl), Total Cholesterol (mg/dl) at the baseline and 6 weeks later noted from the routinely requested tests in the hospital. These values recorded for all groups.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  4. Change from Baseline in the HOMA-IR at 6 weeks

    The fasting blood glucose (mg/dl) and fasting insulin (mU/L) values of the individuals with metabolic syndrome at the baseline and 6 weeks later noted from the routinely requested tests in the hospital. HOMA-IR calculated with the formula (fasting glucose (mg/dl) x fasting insulin (mU/L)) / 405. These values recorded for all groups.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  5. Change from Baseline in the BMI (kg/m2)

    The body weight (kg) and height (m) of the individuals with metabolic syndrome were measured at the baseline and again after 6 weeks by the researcher, who noted the values in their files. The height of the patients was measured with a fixed height meter at 0.5 cm intervals, with shoes off.

    For body analysis, an 8-electrode bioelectrical impedance (BIA) device, Inbody 270, which performs segmental analysis, was used. Patients were asked to remove all metal items (rings, earrings, bracelets, watches, phones, etc.), any heavy clothing, shoes, and socks before stepping on the device. The device was set to -1.0 kg to account for the remaining clothes.

    From these measurements, body weight, body fat (kg), body fat percentage (%), body muscle (kg), and body water (kg) values were recorded. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg) divided by height (m) squared.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  6. Change from Baseline in the Anthropometric Measurements

    The anthropometric measurements of the individuals with metabolic syndrome at the baseline and 6 weeks taken by the researcher and noted in their files. These measurements included waist circumference (cm), hip circumference (cm), mid-upper arm circumference (cm), waist-to-height ratio (cm), and waist-to-hip ratio (cm). Waist circumference was measured using an inflexible tape at the umbilicus level after normal exhalation to the nearest 0.1 cm. Hip circumference was measured from the widest area between the waist and the thigh. The waist-to-hip ratio was calculated using the formula waist (cm)/hip (cm), and the waist-to-height ratio was calculated using the formula waist (cm)/height (cm). Mid-upper arm circumference was measured on the left arm of the patients. Neck circumference was measured with the shoulders in a free position from the point where the thyroid cartilage was most protruding.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oleuropein and Diet Group in people with Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance, run by Atlas 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 10 inclusion and 9 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2024. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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 from Baseline in the Fasting Blood Glucose (mg/dl) at 6 weeks (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 5 Nov 2024.
