Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of the active phase of a very low-calorie ketogenic diet in females with obesity lasting 28 days on body weight, body composition and energy metabolism using a metabolic chamber.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients were recruited at the Obesity and Lipodystrophy Center, University Hospital of Pisa. Enrolled subjects underwent active phase of very low-calorie ketogenic diet within the metabolic chamber from day 0 for a duration of 4 weeks (day 0-28). On days 0, 7, and 28, patients underwent a 24-hour measurement of energy metabolism using the metabolic chamber. On the day of exit from the chamber measurement of body composition was conducted using total-body densitometry (Lunar iDXA; GE Healthcare). ;
