Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate the possible association between 60 SNPs related to obesity, metabolism and cardiovascular disease with BMI, intestinal microbiota and adherence to the Mediterranean diet in a cohort of children and adolescents from the southeast of Spain.


Description:

The objective of this study is to investigate the possible association between 60 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to obesity, metabolism and cardiovascular disease with the body mass index (BMI), intestinal microbiota related to the metabolism of polyphehnos and adherence to the Mediterranean diet in a cohort of children and adolescents from the southeast of Spain.

The volunteers (n=423) with ages ranging from 5 to 18 years consumed for three days a daily serving of walnuts (30g) and provided a sample of urine (to determine mirobial-derived metabolites from walnut polyphenols) as well as a swab specimen from the inner cheek to provide DNA for further genotyping.
