研究概览
简要总结
This trial studies glucosamine and chondroitin in preventing inflammation in overweight patients. Chronic inflammation contributes to cancer formation, and biomarkers of inflammation have been associated with cancer risk. Glucosamine and chondroitin may prevent inflammation and this trial may help identify the bacteria that help process them in the gut.

结局指标
主要结局
Effects of glucosamine sulfate/chondroitin sulfate tablet (G&C) on gut microbial community modulation
时间窗: Up to 2 years
shifts in the bacterial communities within person based on clustering of operational taxonomic units (OTU) at 97% utilizing principal coordinate analysis \[PCOA\]).
Effects of G&C on serum C-reactive protein (CRP)
时间窗: Up to 2 years
evaluated using a generalized estimating equation which accounts for variation due to repeated measures within an individual
