Metabolic Biomarkers in Fasting and Postprandial States

All the measurements were made after a 10-h overnight fast. Waist circumference, hip circumference, and blood pressure were measured while participants were barefoot and wearing light clothes after defecation. Blood samples were collected before and 2 h after a fixed breakfast (~300 kcal) for measurement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting lipid profile, fasting and 2-h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPPG), insulin, and C-peptide. Fasting and postprandial plasma glucose levels, lipid concentrations for total cholesterol, triglycerides, and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c) were measured using an automated enzymatic method (7600-020 Chemical Analyzer, Hitachi, Japan). HbA1c levels were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (D-10 analyzer, Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA). Fasting and 2-h postprandial plasma insulin and C-peptide were measured by radioimmunoassay (Centaur XP immunoassay system, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, New York, NY).
Homoeostasis model assessment (HOMA) was used to estimate basal β-cell function (HOMA-B) and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). HOMA-B was calculated as [20× fasting insulin (FINS)] / [fasting plasma glucose (FPG)—3.5]. HOMA-IR was calculated as FPG × FINS / 22.5 [14 (link)].

Comprehensive Metabolic Profiling of Study Subjects

We collected anthropometric data, including body weight and height, and blood pressure from subjects using standardized techniques (IRB approved). Heparinized blood was collected to measure levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine (Cre) in the hospital's inspection department. The total plasma IgE level was determined using the Two-site Sandwich Immunoassay Automated Chemiluminescence System (Centaur XP Immunoassay System, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Tarrytown, NY, USA). The remaining blood was separated into plasma and cells. Plasma was stored as aliquots in liquid nitrogen until analysis was performed.

We collected anthropometric data, including body weight, height, and blood pressure, from the subjects using standardized techniques (IRB approved). Heparinized blood was collected to measure alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine (Cre). Total serum IgE levels were determined using a two-site sandwich immunoassay automated chemiluminescence system (Centaur XP Immunoassay System; Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Tarrytown, NY, USA). The remaining blood was separated into serum and cells. Serum was stored as aliquots in liquid nitrogen until analysis.

Comprehensive Metabolic and Hormonal Profiling

For each patient, the following demographic data were collected: gender, age, body height and weight. After an overnight fasting, venous blood samples of every subject were obtained for further measurement at the central chemistry laboratory of the Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University. Total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and Lp(a) were analyzed by colorimetric enzymatic assays using a Dade Behring Dimension RXL autoanalyzer (Dade Behring Diagnostics, Marburg, Germany). Fasting blood glucose (FBG) was estimated with glucose oxidase method using Hitachi 747 and fasting insulin (FINS) was estimated by chemiluminescence immunoassay using a Centaur XP immunoassay system (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Germany). Growth hormone (GH), testosterone (TES), follicle-stimulating hormone (HFSH), prolactin (PRL), luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol (E2) were measured with chemiluminescence immunoassay method using Access 2 immunoassay system (Beckman Coulter, Inc., Brea, CA, USA). Body mass index (BMI) was calculated using following formula: body weight (kg)/[height(m)]2. Homoeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was used to estimate insulin resistance, which calculated using the following formula: HOMA-IR = FBG (mmol/L) × FINS (mU/L) / 22.5.

Serum 25(OH)D concentration was detected using the vitamin D Total Assay Kit (ADVIA Centaur®, Siemens Diagnostics Inc., USA) based on chemiluminescence method (ADVIA Centaur® XP Immunoassay System). Vitamin D status (deficient or not) was classified into VDD and non‐VDD (control) based on baseline serum 25(OH)D concentration, with reference to cut‐offs commonly used in the guideline: (1) VDD was defined as 25(OH)D concentration < 20 ng/mL; (2) control was defined as 25(OH)D concentration ≥ 20 ng/mL.15

Metabolic Markers and Insulin Resistance

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Venous blood samples were collected from participants to determine metabolic markers, including fasting blood-glucose, total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglyceride (TG), and uric acid (UA), using an automated enzymatic method (Hitachi, Japan, 7600–020 autonomic analyzer). High-pressure liquid chromatography (BIO-RAD, USA, D-10 analyzer) was used to measure the HbA1c level. Plasma insulin was evaluated by competitive radioimmunoassay (Centaur XP immunoassay system, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, New York, NY). The Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) index, calculated by the formula: fasting plasma insulin (mU/L) x fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)/22.5 [27 (link)], was used to assess Insulin Resistance (IR).
For man, waist circumference ≥ 85cm was used to define central obesity and for women as waist circumference ≥ 80cm [28 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
