NCT04437459 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the reliability of a shortened fat tolerance test ("abbreviated fat tolerance test", or "AFTT") for measuring post-meal lipids in human blood. The reliability of the triglyceride results in this test are compared to the reliability of the glucose results from an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), a widely-used and clinically accepted metabolic test.

Conditions

  • Dyslipidemias
  • Metabolic Syndrome
