Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a reduction in LDL-C, analyzed through the colorimetric enzymatic method, from the finding of a variation of at least 20% in pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A 5% increase in HDL measured by the colorimetric enzymatic method is expected;Glycemia maintenance is expected, measured by the concentration of glucose (enzymatic hexokinase method) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HPLC).;Maintenance of renal function markers assessed using urea (UV kinetics) and creatinine (colorimetric) is expected;Maintenance of liver function markers assessed using ALT, AST and GGT is expected;A 3% increase in the activation of brown adipose tissue is expected, as assessed using the thermographic camera;An increase in the concentration of hormones involved in satiety is expected, which will be evaluated using elisa kits;An increase in the concentration of FGF-21 measured by the Elisa Kit is expected;A modulation of the intestinal microbiota is expected with a reduction in firmicutes and an increase in Arkkemansia evaluated through high-performance sequencing of the V3/V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene;A 15% reduction in the thyrglyceride is expected between the beginning and end of the intervention measured by the colorimetric enzyme method | — |
