Role of Carbohydrate Modification in Weight Management Among Obese Children

NCT00215111 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that a low-carbohydrate diet and a low-glycemic load diet will improve body mass index and result in more body fat loss than a control diet among overweight children ages 7 to 12. In addition this study is also designed to test the safety of diets with modified carbohydrate content as compared to a conventional weight management diet among younger overweight children.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT00215111

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT00215111 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 102 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, which has 715 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Childhood Obesity appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Low carbohydrate, reduced glycemic load, and a control diet is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT00215111 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Ohio. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
