Scientific titlePrevalence of metabolic obesity in patients with Barrett's Oesophagus and its potential role in carcinogenesis: a single centre non-randomised controlled trial
Study objectivesThe aim of this study is to investigate whether there is a connection between obesity and the development of Barrett's Oesophagus.
Ethics approval(s)East Central London Research Ethics Committee, 09/02/2011, ref: 10/H0721/83
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedBarrett's Oesophagus and metabolic obesity
InterventionThe study will be divided in 2 phases (total duration 12 months):

Phase 1: Recruitment, collection of data, endoscopy (OGD) biopsy and histology, blood tests (duration 8 months).
1. Subjects with known Barrett’s Oesophagus will be recruited from patients booked to have an OGD on a list dedicated to a Barrett’s oesophagus surveillance programme undertaken at University College Hospital, UK.
2. The control group will be recruited from patients booked to have an elective OGD for other gastrointestinal indications (negative at endoscopy for Barrett’s Oesophagus).

Phase 2: Gata collection and analysis (duration 4 months)
1. Data will be entered into a database
2. Data analysis

The prevalence of obesity, overweight and metabolic obesity will be determined. Anthropometric measurements and body composition (bioimpedance) and biochemical indices of metabolic syndrome will be measured. In those subjects with Barrett's Oesophagus histological presence of metaplasia/dysplasia will also be assessed.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measurePrevalence of overweight, obesity, and metabolic obesity in subjects with Barrett's Oesophagus as compared to subjects without Barrett's Oesophagus (standardised for age and sex).

All the measures will be done only once at baseline, when patients attend their endoscopy test as part of their clinical management.

No follow-up is required.
Secondary outcome measures1. The characteristics of body composition, metabolic parameters and serum level of adiponectin/leptin in obese, overweight and metabolic obese subjects compared to those of normal weight.
2. The prevalence of abdominal obesity (in obese and overweight subjects) and metabolic obesity in subjects with dysplastic Barrett's oesophagus compared to those without dysplasia.

All the measures will be done only once at baseline, when patients attend their endoscopy test as part of their clinical management. No follow-up is required.
