Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Current primary outcome measure as of 09/12/2020: Faecal microbiota is assessed through measuring the taxonomic composition in faeces (16S RNA) and quantitative metagenomic analysis at baseline and 8 weeks in each intervention period. Previous primary outcome measure: Metabolic risk markers are assessed by measuring glucose and lipid profile, inflammation, oxidation, and endothelial function markers by routine methods, ELISA and Luminex platform at baseline and 8 weeks in each intervention period.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Current secondary outcome measures as of 09/12/2020: Metabolic risk markers are assessed by measuring glucose and lipid profile, inflammation, oxidation, and endothelial function markers by routine methods, ELISA and Luminex platform at baseline and 8 weeks in each intervention period. Previous secondary outcome measures: Faecal microbiota is assessed through measuring the taxonomic composition in faeces (16S RNA) and quantitative metagenomic analysis at baseline and 8 weeks in each intervention period.
