Age, body mass index (BMI), education level, menopausal status (reproductive period, perimenopausal period, postmenopausal period), number of births, duration of… Read more about this study

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 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with lipedema who are 18 years of age or older

Who may be able to join

  • Serum magnesium levels must have been measured within the past 6 month
  • Be at least 18 years of age
  • Have a diagnosis of lipedema based on the Wold criteria
  • Have no cognitive or mental health issues
  • Agree to participate in the study

Who cannot join

  • No serum magnesium level measured within the past 6 months
  • Use of magnesium supplements for lipedema within the past 6 months, or the presence of any condition known to affect magnesium absorption or serum magnesium levels (e.g., use of a proton pump inhibitor [PPI] or diuretic)
  • The presence of other types of edema in which a component other than lipedema is predominant (e.g., lymphedema, venous edema, edema associated with heart or kidney failure, etc.)
  • A body mass index (BMI) of over 50.0 (this condition reflects severe obesity, which has a significant impact on health beyond lipedema alone)
  • Presence of a rheumatological disease, history of cancer, chronic liver disease, or endocrine disorder
  • Having been diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder, or use of psychiatric medications that may affect sleep
  • Being under 18 years of age

About this study

Official title: The Relationship Between Serum Magnesium Levels and Sleep Quality, Pain Levels, and Quality of Life in Patients Diagnosed With Lipedema: An Observational Cross-Sectional Study

Female patients diagnosed with lipedema will be divided into two groups based on their Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores: PSQI ≤ 5 and PSQI > 5. Age, body mass index (BMI), education level, menopausal status (reproductive period, perimenopausal period, postmenopausal period), number of births, duration of illness, occupation, marital status, disease stage, lipedema type, lower extremity functional scale, and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale - Short Form (Physical Health, Psychological Health, Social Relationships...)

Female patients diagnosed with lipedema will be divided into two groups based on their Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores: PSQI ≤ 5 and PSQI > 5. Age, body mass index (BMI), education level, menopausal status (reproductive period, perimenopausal period, postmenopausal period), number of births, duration of illness, occupation, marital status, disease stage, lipedema type, lower extremity functional scale, and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale - Short Form (Physical Health, Psychological Health, Social Relationships...) Inclusion criteria for the study: Serum magnesium levels must have been measured within the past 6 months; participants must be over 18 years of age; a diagnosis of lipedema must have been made according to the Wold criteria; participants must not have any cognitive or mental health issues; and they must agree to participate in the study. Exclusion criteria include the absence of serum magnesium levels within the past 6 months, the use of magnesium supplements for lipedema over the past 6 months, or the presence of any condition known to affect magnesium absorption or serum magnesium levels (e.g., use of a proton pump inhibitor [PPI] or a diuretic), or the presence of other types of edema in which a component other than lipedema is predominant (e.g., lymphedema, venous edema, edema due to heart or kidney failure, etc.), Chronic liver disease, a body mass index (BMI) of over 50.0 (this condition reflects severe obesity that has a significant impact on health, rather than lipedema alone), the presence of a rheumatological disease, a history of cancer, the presence of an endocrine disorder, a diagnosis of a psychiatric disorder, the use of psychiatric medications that may affect sleep, and being under 18 years of age.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lipedema and Magnesium, run by Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2026. 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?

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?

The relationship between serum magnesium levels and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score (time frame: 1 day). 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 21 Aug 2026.
