简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a one week high versus low glycaemic index dietary intervention on hepatic glycogen and lipid levels and blood hormone levels in a two way cross overs study and to see if there is any correlation between this and satiety or appetite.
详细描述
8 Healthy subject will be scanned the start and end of a 7 day high versus low glycaemic in diet with a 4 week washout between arms. During scan days the hepatic glycogen response to a corresponding high versus low glycaemic index test meal will be measured using 13C Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to explore any acute changes in metabolic response. Baseline liver lipid levels will be measured using 1H MRS to explore any long term changes in liver lipid levels.
Blood samples will also be obtained throughout the test day to measure for blood glucose, insulin and blood hormone response. Satiety surveys will also be taken throughout the test day and during the diet week.
The main hypothesis is that a one week calorie matched Glycaemic index varied diet will result in an altered response of liver glycogen levels acutely following a meal and also longer term hepatic liver lipid levels. A secondary hypothesis is that there will also be associated changes in blood sugar and hormone levels and that all these changes will have an effect on satiety levels in subjects.

结局指标
主要结局
Liver glycogen
时间窗: 7 days
Liver glycogen content was determined by Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy using the distinct 13C signals from the glycogen polymer. The glycogen signal resonates at 101.4 ppm, and was calibrated using an external reference peak situated in the centre of the coil (175ppm) and quantified with reference to an ex vivo glycogen acquisition.
次要结局
- Liver lipids(7 days)
