Trial Outcomes & Findings for Pilot Investigation of a Multinutrient Supplement on Skin Aging and Aging Metabolites in Healthy Women (NCT NCT00541931)
NCT ID: NCT00541931
Last Updated: 2017-11-20
Results Overview
Peripheral blood long chain fatty acids were measured. Fold change of 1 = no difference; if metabolites decrease at week 12 from baseline, the fold change will be \<1.

Baseline Characteristics
Assessed by 4 dermatologists blinded to chronological age and smoking status, on a 10-point Likert scale (min 1/max 10); lower scores indicate less wrinkling and higher scores indicate more wrinkling. Values are the average of scores given by the four raters.

Timeframe: Baseline; week 12Population: Participants completing the protocol were included in the analysis.
Assessed by 4 dermatologists blinded to chronological age and smoking status, on a 10-point Likert scale (min 1/max 10); lower scores indicate less wrinkling and higher scores indicate more wrinkling. Values are the average of scores given by the four raters. Change was calculated as the baseline value minus the week 12 value.
