Protocol summary

Summary
Method of this study has designed based on Double blind Randomized Clinical Trial principles.the goal of this study is the Effects of combined administration of weight reducing diet and Zinc supplementation on anthropometric factors, Apelin and inflammatory markers in obese individual. in this study cases were chosen from obese patients(BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) with no exclusion criteria.After completing informed consent form, obese patients will be requested to be fast for 12 to 14 hours in subsequent presence.then we will catch 5 cc venous blood from patients and they will be weighed with 100 grams precision and light clothing and will be calculated their stature without shoes with 0.5 cm precision and waist circumference and bioelectrical impedance analysis and their general characteristic will be record in data collecting sheet.then cases will be divided to two groups.one group (case group) will be received combined administration of weight reducing diet and zinc sulphate capsules and the other group (control group) will be received weight reducing diet and placebo. obese patients in case group will recieve 50 mg zinc daily during 15 weeks, while obese patients in control group will be recieve placebo capsules. At the end of seventh week of study, in all patients anthropometric indices, weight, waist circumference and body fat composition will be again calculated.At the end of the fifteenth week,5 cc blood after 12 to 14 hours fasting will be again catch from patients and anthropometric indices (weight, waist circumference and body fat composition) will be again recorded.finally blood samples will be santrifuge for15 minutes at 2000 rpm to separating serum component.then serum TNF-alpha, hs-CRP and Apelin will be measured with enzymatic method.In this study sample size according to standard deviation (SD) of previous studies and equality of variance in two groups based on formula for each group has calculated 15 patients that because of probable infusion, 25 patients in each group has considered
