Registered outcomes7

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Frequency of Sleep-related Eating Episodes (Time Frame: Comparing Final Study Visit to Baseline)every 2 weeks for 10 weeks
Frequency of sleep-related eating episodes was measured as the number of nights a participant had an episode within the previous two weeks. The change was measured by comparing the last study visit (by the participant) from to the baseline results.
PrimaryThe Clinician Global Impression (CGI) ScaleDay 1 (First Study Visit) to Day 63 (Final Study Visit) (assessed at last study visit)
The Clinician Global Impression (CGI) Scale is used by healthcare professionals to assess the overall severity of illness and change in a patient's condition over time. The scale ranges from 1 to 7, 1 being Very much improved and 7 being Very much worse. A participant with a score of 1 or 2 on the Clinician Global Impression scale was considered a "responder."
SecondaryBody Weightevery other week for 10 weeksThe change in body weight in the study participants was calculated comparing the participant's last study visit to their baseline weight.
SecondaryHbA1c (%)Day 1 (First Study Visit) to Day 63 (Final Study Visit)Change in HbA1c levels from randomization to the end of follow-up.
SecondaryAverage Total Sleep Time (Hours)Day 1 (First Study Visit) to Day 63 (Final Study Visit)Average sleep time over the course of the previous two weeks, comparing end results to baseline.
SecondarySleep Quality (Visual Analogue Scale or VAS)Day 1 (First Study Visit) to Day 63 (Final Study Visit)
Measured on visual analogue scale (VAS). VAS ranges were as follows: Sleep Quality; 0 = "Poorly" to 100 = "Great," Wakefulness; 0 = "Asleep/Not Awake" to 100 = "Fully Awake," Control; 0 = "No Control Over Eating" to 100 = "Full Control Over Eating," Memory; 0 = "No Memory of Eating" to 100 = "Fully Remember Eating". The change was calculated from baseline to the final study visit (day 63).
SecondaryThe Patient Global Impression (PGI) ScaleDay 1 (First Study Visit) to Day 63 (Final Study Visit) (assessed at last study visit)A participant with a score of 1 or 2 on the Patient Global Impression scale was considered a "responder."
