NCT05237440

Brief Summary

We postulate that childhood traumas are associated with deregulation of the glucocorticoid axis and the inflammatory system in obese women. The main objective of the study is to compare the salivary cortisol awaking response in obese women according to the presence of childhood trauma (assessed using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, CTQ).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measurement of salivary cortisol awakening response (CAR)

    Two salivary sampling at Day 0. The CAR is defined as the difference between the value of salivary cortisol collected 30 minutes after waking up and that on waking

    Day 0

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Comparison of the amount of urinary free cortisol

    Day 21

  • Comparison of the amount of urinary free cortisol metabolites

    Day 21

  • Comparison of the amount of salivary cortisone

    Day 21

  • Comparison of the amount of hair cortisol/cortisone

    Day 21

  • comparison of the proportions of current anxiety/depression

    Day 0

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • ≥18 years female BMI≥30kg/m2

You may not qualify if:

  • History of bariatric surgery
  • Any condition or pathology that may influence the corticotropic axis or that may modify the excretion or dosage of cortisol:
  • pregnancy, breastfeeding

  • severe heart failure,
  • mild/moderate acute heart failure,
  • any psychological disorder not stabilised for at least one year
  • alcohol or drug dependence, not weaned for at least one year
  • neoplasm under treatment
  • Current infectious disease or a history of autoimmune disease (except autoimmune hypothyroidism), inflammatory disease and/or neurodegenerative disease
  • Presence of an adrenal adenoma or any known or suspected clinical adrenal or corticotropic disorder
  • Subjects with a positive diagnosis of hypercorticism or suspected hypercorticism will also be excluded: 8-hour plasma cortisol after Dexamethasone suppression test (DST) (1 mg dexamethasone taken orally at midnight the previous day) greater than 1.8 microg/100 ml (50 nmol/l)
  • antidepressant and neuroleptic treatment, benzodiazepine treatment
  • treatment(s) likely to modify the exploration of the corticotropic axis: systemic or local corticosteroid therapy or glucocorticoid infiltration for less than 6 months
  • current use of anti-inflammatory drugs or antibiotics
  • +1 more criteria
