Brief summary
A case-control study to identify microbiome and genetic differences between healthy people and patients with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Detailed description
Two groups of people, one composed of healthy volunteers and the other of patients with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus who never received treatment for their condition, fill in the food frequency questionnaire and the physical activity questionnaire. DNA microarray genotyping is used to process the DNA samples of the participants. The data on the composition of the participants' gut microbiota is obtained through sequencing of their stool samples.
Interventions
Taking a stool sample for gut microbiome DNA sequencing
Taking a saliva sample for genotyping

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| HbA1C | Baseline | Glycated hemoglobin level |
| Glucose | Baseline | Fasting blood glucose level |
| Gut microbiome composition of participants | Baseline | Bacteria abundance obtained via sequencing the DNA extracted from the stool sample |
| Genotypes of participants | Baseline | Genotypes of thousands of SNPs obtained via DNA-microarray genotyping of the DNA extracted from the saliva sample |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Physical activity questionnaire | Baseline | Physical Activity Questionnaire. It collects information on physical activity comprising 16 questions grouped in four domains: activity at work (1), travel to and from places (2), recreational activities (3), sedentary behaviour (4). |
| Food frequency questionnaire | 12 months before baseline | Food frequency questionnaire assesses usual intake and portion size of more than 130 foods and beverages and more than 25 dietary supplements for the last 12 months. Responses are evaluated and analysed to compile a nutritional picture for each group of subjects. |
