Obesity Clinical Trial - The Relationship Between Obesity-related

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Obesity is an epidemic and a growing problem in the world. There are numerous causes of obesity, the most novel and personalized of which is genetic inheritance. Single nucleotide polymorphisms are the most common type of genetic variation among people, regulating the response between the diet and the body. Meanwhile, Traditional Chinese medicine pattern differentiation is also personalized and usually influenced by inheritance, living habits, character and environment and so on. The common constitutions in obesity are Qi deficiency, Yang Deficiency, and Phlegm dampness, which are correlated with oxygen, sugar and fat metabolism, also affected by gene expression. Therefore, the relationship between constitution, metabolism and genetic molecular typing may be significant in obesity with obstructive sleep apnea patients.

Clinical Trial Description

Method The adults whose age between 20~65 years old, BMI between 27kg/m² and 35kg/m², and also have snoring during sleeping are able to be enrolled in the study. Then, the general data questionnaire, Body Constitution Questionnaire, physical examination, blood test, and genetic test are provided to subjects. The blood test includes High-density lipoprotein- cholesterol, Low-density lipoprotein- cholesterol, Total cholesterol, Triglyceride, Leptin, Glucose AC, Hemoglobin A1C, Insulin; the DNA test includes FTO、MC4R、BDNF、PPARG、ADRB3、UCP1. Epworth Sleepiness Scale, laryngoscope and polysomnography are also performed in the patients enrolled. The Traditional Chinese medicine constitution can be classified and its relationship between different figure types, serum lipid level as well as obesity-related gene can be analyzed. The results will be described after a statistical analysis.

Aim The aim of this study is to analyze the constitution, finding the association between obesity patients with obstructive sleep apnea and their related molecular typing and Traditional Chinese Medicine constitution. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
