Lage GI-dieeteffecten op niet-alcoholische leververvetting (LGI-NAFLD)

13 juli 2026 bijgewerkt door: University of Nottingham

Effecten van een iso-energetisch dieet met een lage glycemische index (GI) op de accumulatie van levervet en de samenstelling van de darmmicrobiota bij patiënten met niet-alcoholische leververvetting (NAFLD)

A 2 x 2 cross-over dietary intervention trial designed to investigate the effects of low glycemic index (LGI) versus high glycemic index (HGI) diet on hepatic fat accumulation and gut microbiota composition in participants with NAFLD.

Participants will be allocated randomly to a 2-week either high GI (HGI) or low GI (LGI) diet followed by a 4-week wash-out period and then the LGI or HGI diet, opposite to the first 2-weeks (N= 16).

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Following the screening phase and standardisation week, each participant will experience two, 2-week intervention phases, with a 4-week washout period between interventions. Before and after each intervention period they will attend the Imaging Centre (Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre) for MRI scan measurements and then will attend the Biomedical Research Centre for FibroScan, and blood and stool samples collection. During each intervention phase each participant will be required to consume all the food that has been provided, fill in dietary compliance sheets and complete Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) relating to subjective appetite ratings.

Design of the dietary interventions Energy expenditure will be estimated for each participant using the individual's basal metabolic rate calculated from Henry-modified Schofield formula and multiplied by an activity factor based on the IPAQ score physical activity levels. A menu, consisting of meals for 3 days personalised for energy requirement, will be devised (these meals are repeated over 2 weeks) by adjusting a template according to their estimated energy requirement in order to minimise weight change during the intervention phase. The diet consists of normal food closely resembling that described by Bawden et al study. A diet template of 2000 kcal/day with energy proportions distributed as 55% from carbohydrates, 15% from protein and 30% from fat are designed and food quantities will be modified to supply the energy requirements for each participant. Three-day cycle menu plans are designed for each diet (LGI/ HGI). Table 1 shows example template menus for both HGI (a) and LGI (b) diets.

The GI values of commercial food items are generated from that reported by Henry et al, as well as Nutritics software databases (Nutritics). The dietary GI of the menu is calculated from GI proportional contribution to total carbohydrate using the equation: GI=∑(Cfood/Ctotal) × GIfood; where Cfood is the amount of carbohydrate contained in each digested food (g), Ctotal is the total carbohydrate in the meal and is the reported GI of the food. The GL of the diet is calculated based on the dietary GI and the amount of carbohydrate provided (the same in both diets) using the following equation: GL=(GIfood × Cfood)/100; where GI is the GI of each digested food and food is the amount of carbohydrate in the food. Food composition analysis and evaluation were performed using Nutritics software (Nutritics, Dublin, Ireland, 2018).

Participants will be provided with the food at the start of each 2-week diet period and will be clearly instructed on safe food storage and reheating. They will be required to complete dietary compliance sheet on a daily basis. Instructions on dietary compliance will be given at each study period and the dietary compliance records will be reviewed regularly during the intervention to assess their compliance. For the first 1 week prior to the intervention (1-week standardisation), and during the 4-week wash-out period, participants will be asked to avoid eating probiotics, yoghurt and cultured milk drink; if any, to standardise their gut microbiota and avoid any carry-over effects as shown in previous studies.Meal-timing will be standardised among all participants as much as possible during the intervention as well as during the standardisation period.

Tijdsspanne: Baseline and end of each 2-week dietary intervention period

Change in liver fat content (%) from baseline to the end of each 2-week dietary intervention period (LGI diet and HGI diet) in participants with NAFLD. Liver fat content was measured using magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Values represent liver fat content at 2 weeks minus liver fat content at baseline. Lower values indicate lower liver fat content and may reflect improvement in hepatic steatosis.

Change in Composite Appetite Sensations (CAS) Score From Baseline to End of Each 2-Week Dietary Intervention
Tijdsspanne: Baseline and end of each 2-week dietary intervention period

Composite Appetite Sensations (CAS) score was derived from Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) assessments of appetite. Participants rated hunger, satisfaction, fullness, desire to eat, and prospective food consumption on 10-cm (0-100 mm) visual analogue scales. The CAS score was calculated as:

2

3 [Hunger + (100 - Satisfaction) + (100 - Fullness) + Desire to Eat + Prospective Food Consumption] / 5 4

5 CAS scores range from 0 to 100 mm, with higher scores indicating greater overall appetite and lower scores indicating lower appetite. Values represent the change from baseline to the end of each 2-week dietary intervention period.

Beschrijving IPD-plan

Within a five-year timeframe, the final anonymized trial data will be uploaded to the https://rdmc.nottingham.ac.uk public repository after consistency and quality have been verified by the project team and publication of the results. Data from this trial are intended to be presented at local and international conferences including those attended by clinicians and dietitians and will also be used as part of a Philosophy Doctorate thesis.
