Registered outcomes3

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercent Coefficient of Fat Absorption (CFA)Day 1 up to Day 4 or Day 5 in inpatient period of treatment phase
Percent CFA was calculated as (\[fat intake - fat excretion\]/fat intake)\*100, determined in the stools which was collected from Day 1 to Day 4 or Day 5 during the inpatient period of treatment phase. Mean percent (%) CFA was calculated for Day 1 to Day 4 or Day 5 in inpatient period of treatment phase.
SecondaryMean Daily Number of StoolsDay 1 up to Day 4 or Day 5 in inpatient period of treatment phase
Mean daily number of stools of each patient was calculated from frequency of stools by the patient per day. Mean daily number of stools during the collection period (Day 1 to Day 4 or Day 5 in inpatient period of treatment phase) for total patients was summarized.
SecondaryPercentage of Stools Categorized as Per ConsistencyDay 1 up to Day 4 or Day 5 in inpatient period of treatment phase
Stool consistency was categorized as hard, formed/normal, soft and watery. Percentage of stools of a specific consistency for each patient was calculated as: (total number of stools of specific consistency during the completed days of the inpatient period/ total number of stools during the completed days of the inpatient period)\*100. Mean percentage of stool categorized as per consistency for total patients was summarized.
