Study design	Interventional, randomised prospective clinical trial
Primary study design	Interventional
Secondary study design	Randomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)	Hospital
Study type	Treatment
Scientific title	Effects of dietary protein restriction on albumin and fibrinogen synthesis in macroalbuminuric Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (DM2) subjects
Study acronym	DM2LPD study
Study objectives	Dietary protein restriction on albumin and fibrinogen synthesis.
Ethics approval(s)	Approval received from the Ethics committee of Second University of Naples (Comitato Etico Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria - SUN) in 2005.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied	Diabetes mellitus and nephropathy
Intervention	We compared the effects of a Normal Protein Diet (NPD) (1.38 ± 0.08 g/kg/day) or a Low Protein Diet (LPD) (0.81 ± 0.04 g/kg/day) on Endogenous Leucine Flux (ELF), albumin and fibrinogen synthesis (5,5,5,-D3-L-leucine infusion), and markers of inflammation, in 9 subjects with DM2 and macroalbuminuria. The duration of treatment is 4 weeks pre-LPD and 4 weeks post-LPD. The total duration of follow-up for all treatment arms is 8 weeks.
Intervention type	Other
Primary outcome measure	Albumin and fibrinogen synthesis, measured at baseline and four weeks pre-LPD and post-LPD.
Secondary outcome measures	Proteinuria and low-grade inflammation, measured at baseline and four weeks pre-LPD and post-LPD.
