Randomised Controlled Trial of Efficacy of Resistant Maltodextrins on Reducing Colonic Transit Time

to determine CTT volunteers should ingest a capsule of radiopaque markers each day for five consecutive days. 24 hours after the final intake of markers an abdominal X-ray should be performed.

Each of the study subjects will be given a defecation habit diary where consistency of stools from the 28 days of the experimental phase will be recorded according to the Bristol Stool Chart

these variables will be assessed by determining the number of the Rome III Criteria they fulfil

This outcome will be assessed using a dietary survey. A five-day food record. This food record will be carried out at the same days in both study phases (from day 2 to day 6 and from day 23 to day 27).
This data will be processed by a computer system that uses internationally validated food composition tables

A blood sample will be taken to determine the blood count and blood biochemistry (glucose, lipid profile, ferritin and ions).

An analysis of blood biochemistry will be carried out to determine values for enzymes to assess liver function, and biomolecules such as bilirubin, urea and creatinine to assess renal function

The safety profile will be assessed using the record of adverse events. Adverse events related to this study will be due to the intake of soluble fibre, the most frequently reported being: flatulence, diarrhoea and gastrointestinal bloating.
