NCT01579409

Brief Summary

In France, primary cardiovascular and metabolic prevention is supported by the French National Program for Nutrition and Health (PNNS: Programme National Nutrition Santé). The investigators made the hypothesis that, independently of other diseases, the non adherence in PNNS guidelines would lead to arterial stiffness, endothelial dysfunction, change in microcirculation and in cardiac autonomic system. These changes may exist at fasting but also be reinforced after a standardised breakfast. The investigators aim is to evaluate arterial stiffness, endothelial function, microcirculation and cardiac autonomic system according to PNNS status in a case control study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

  • Pulse Wave Velocity

    This is a pilot study. Pulse wave velocity, an index of arterial stiffness, was chosen as the primary endpoint. A total of 47 subjects in each group was necessary to detect a difference between groups of 1m/s in pulse wave velocity (standard deviation of 1.7 m/s) with a statistical power of 80%, at fasting.

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Peripheral arterial augmentation index (Aix )

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • High and low frequency peaks in heart variability spectral analysis

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • High and low frequency peaks in systolic and diastolic blood pressure spectral analysis

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Mean cutaneous blood flow measured by laser doppler flowmetry

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Mean cutaneous blood flow measured by laser doppler flowmetry, spectral analysis

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Percentage of variation of cutaneous blood flow laser doppler measurements after paced breathing (6/min)

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Increase in cutaneous blood flow laser doppler measurements after acetylcholine iontophoresis

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Reactive Hyperemia Index after branchial artery occlusion

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

  • Aortic , radial,digital artery, systolic, diastolic and pulsatile pressures

    During the fasting state, within the hour preceding the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Comparison of the above mentioned parameters after a standardised breakfast

    After the standardised breakfast that provides 75 gr of carbohydrates, hourly for the next 3 hours following the end of the standardised breakfast
