| Primary study design | Interventional |
| Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
| Study setting(s) | Hospital |
| Study type | Quality of life |
| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | The weight reduction with the change of fat distribution influence on the adipokines and metabolic indices. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the Institutional Review Board of Yondong Severance Hospital, Yonsei University College of Medicine (South Korea) on the 6th September 2006 (ref: 3-2006-0044). |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Obesity |
| Intervention | All patients received all three interventions for 16 weeks: 1. The subjects visited an obesity clinic twice per month and restricted their caloric intake to less than their usual intake by 600 kcal/day 2. All patients were encouraged to achieve the goal of five hours of aerobic exercise (physical activity of moderate intensity, such as brisk walking, light jogging or stationary ergometer usage) per week 3. They were also administered 10 - 15 mg of sibutramine (in the morning) |
| Intervention type | Drug |
| Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
| Phase | Not Specified |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Sibutramine |
| Primary outcome measure | The changes of body fat distribution and adipocytokines, determined by computed tomography scan and measured both before and 16 weeks after the weight reduction program. |
| Secondary outcome measures | The relationship of body fat distribution and adipocytokines, determined by computed tomography scan and measured both before and 16 weeks after the weight reduction program. |
| Overall study start date | 06/09/2006 |
| Completion date | 31/05/2007 |
