Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main study parameter is the difference in insulin sensitivity after a switch from a low-fat diet to a high-fat diet compared to the control group, which stays on a low-fat diet.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
As secondary endpoints differences in lipid accumulation in heart liver and muscle, cardiac function, the time-course of lipid accumulation and the relationship between the tissue parameter lipid accumulation and the functional outcome parameter insulin resistance are considered.
