Registered outcomes 11
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Verbal declarative memory | At 15 minutes | One of six word lists composed of 15 words will be audio presented and participants will be asked to write them down. The word list will be presented 3 times and the participant will immediately write down words after each time the word list is presented. This test will take 5 minutes | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change from baseline spatial memory | At Baseline, 15, 45, and 75 minutes | Assessed using a spatial pattern recognition test on the Membrain Application. There will be a grid of 9 boxes with circles randomly located inside each box. Participants will be asked to remember where circles are located in each box. This test is done 6 times at each time-point, with each test having different random locations of circles. Each test will take 20 seconds. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change in verbal declarative memory from the 15 minute time-point | At 45 and 75 minutes | Participants will be asked to recall and write down all the words from the word list presented at the 15 minute time-point. This test will take 2 minutes. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change from baseline executive function | At Baseline, 15, 45, and 75 minutes | Will be assessed the Stroop task via the Membrain application. Participants will be presented with a list of words presented in colors that match the word (congruent, the word 'red' presented in red) or colors that do not match the word (incongruent, the word 'red' presented in blue). Participants will be asked to identify the color of the word, not the word itself. The task is scored for the number of correct and incorrect colors identified, as well as total time to completion. This test will be at each time-point and will take 1 minute to complete. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change from baseline working memory and executive function | At Baseline, 15, 45, and 75 minutes | A random 3 digit number will appear on the screen of the Membrain Application and the participant will have to continually subtract 3 from this number. At each time-point, participants will also complete the same test, except will subtract 7 continuously. This is a 2 minute test. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change from baseline attention and reaction time | At Baseline, 15, 45, and 75 minutes | Using the Membrain Application, Aa continuous string of single digit numbers appear on the screen, one at a time (each appearing for about one second). After seeing three consecutive ascending odd numbers, participants click the 'odd' button. When they see three consecutive, ascending even numbers, they click the 'even' button. When they see the number "1", they click the 'tertiary' button. This test is 5 minutes in length. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Change from baseline subjective average emotions | At Baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 minutes | Measured using 100 point visual analogue scales. Participants mark on this line to describe their feelings. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Change from baseline global vigor | At Baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 minutes | Measured using 100 point visual analogue scales. Participants mark on this line to describe their feelings. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Change from baseline subjective average appetite | At Baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 minutes | Measured using 100 point visual analogue scales. Participants mark on this line to describe their feelings. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Change from baseline blood glucose concentration | At Baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 minutes | Blood glucose concentration (mmol/L) will be measured in whole blood using YSI 2300 STAT PLUS (YSI Incorporated, Yellow Springs, OH) | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Food intake | At 90 minutes | After other measures at the 90 minute time-point, participants will have lunch and food intake will be determined by weighing the meal before and after serving. The net weight of the test meal will be converted to kilocalories | ClinicalTrials.gov |
