Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of the effect of consuming the prepared cakes with acorn flour and wheat flour following a hypocaloric diet on serum levels of adiponectin, inflammatory factors and oxidative stress parameters in obese and overweight patients with metabolic syndrome
Design
In this double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study, 66 patients will randomly divide into 2 groups using the balanced block randomization method as follows: Group A (n=33) will receive 30 grams of oak cake once a day + a balanced hypocaloric diet Group B (n=33) will receive 30 grams of wheat cake once a day + a balanced hypocaloric diet This process is followed for 8 weeks.
Settings and conduct
This is a double-blind randomized study that is conducted for 8 weeks. Patients are divided into two groups receiving oak cake and wheat cake. All patients receive a balanced hypocaloric diet. Body composition and biochemical markers are measured before and after the intervention. Sampling location: Nutrition clinic of Imam Reza Clinic in Shiraz

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
After the 2-week run-in period, the patients will be randomly allocated to the intervention or placebo (control) group using the balanced block randomization method with a block size of 4. The treatment allocation will performed using software-generated random numbers. Patients in the intervention group will consume two daily servings (2×30 g) of AC (n= 33) as snacks for 8 weeks a day; while those in the control group will be assigned to equal amounts of PC (n= 33) for the same period. The cakes will be prepared in the city of Shiraz. The intervention and control cakes will be equal in terms of shape, size, color, and taste. Also, both cakes will be prepared with identical packages and labeled as A or B, so that both study personnel and participants are unaware of the type of treatment.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
Study participants, researchers, and laboratory personnel are blinded to group allocation until after the study. The designed placebo is completely similar to the intervention group in terms of color, smell, size and model. In order to blind the researcher, help is taken from a person who is not involved in the research process. The set of packs containing cakes prepared by a third party are coded as A and B.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: the group that received the super-beneficial cake containing oak powder. The amount of calories in both oak and wheat cakes will be equal, so due to the higher calorie content of oak flour, 10 grams of sweetened oak flour should be used in preparing a cake containing oak flour, and 13.8 grams of wheat flour should be used in preparing a cake containing wheat flour. will be. Other ingredients of both cakes will be similar. A cake with an approximate weight of 30 grams will be produced and packaged in a standard way and will be considered as part of a snack to be consumed once a day by the patient.
