The Reproducibility and Clinical Utility of an Abbreviated Fat Tolerance Test

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Dyslipidemias, Metabolic Syndrome

In brief

This study aims to evaluate the reliability of a shortened fat tolerance test ("abbreviated fat tolerance test", or "AFTT") for measuring post-meal lipids in human blood. The reliability of the triglyceride results in this test are compared to the reliability of the glucose results from an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), a widely-used and clinically accepted metabolic test.
