Registered outcomes3

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTotal Body Insulin SensitivityIntervention 1 (5 days), Intervention 2 (14 days), and Long-term follow-up (6 months)Total body insulin sensitivity (measured as glucose disposal rate during a hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp)
SecondaryInsulin-mediated Suppression of Hepatic Glucose ProductionIntervention 1 (5 days), Intervention 2 (14 days), and Long-term follow-up (6 months)Hepatic insulin sensitivity (measured as suppression of endogenous glucose production during a hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp)
SecondaryEndogenous Rate of Appearance of PalmitateIntervention 1 (5 days), Intervention 2 (14 days), and Long-term follow-up (6 months)Endogenous Rate of Appearance of Palmitate is measured in plasma.
