Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Role of TLR4 on Lipid-induced Insulin Resistance (NCT NCT02321111)

NCT ID: NCT02321111

Last Updated: 2019-10-08

Results Overview

Muscle insulin sensitivity = muscle insulin sensitivity is determined by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp procedure. M value (mg glucose / kg of body weight / minute) calculated from the clamp is measured. Higher M value indicates better insulin sensitivity. There is no established reference range.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 72 hours

Muscle insulin sensitivity = muscle insulin sensitivity is determined by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp procedure. M value (mg glucose / kg of body weight / minute) calculated from the clamp is measured. Higher M value indicates better insulin sensitivity. There is no established reference range.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 72 hours

Hepatic insulin sensitivity = is determined by euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp procedure. Endogenous glucose production or EGP (mg/kg/min) calculated from the clamp is measured. Lower EGP indicates better hepatic insulin sensitivity. There is no established reference range.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 72 hours

Population: Data from 1 subject were not collected due to instrument failure. Therefore, data from 9 subjects were reported.

TLR4 expression on the peripheral blood monocytes is determined by flow cytometry using arbitrary units. Higher TLR4 expression indicates higher inflammatory response. There is no reference range.
