To treating Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) in the human body by using cooked pre-germinated brown rice (PGBR), a randomized control trial was done in Vietnam. 80 subjects (65.1 ± 3.81 years old) separated into two groups in pairs were assigned a daily intake of 200 g PGBR, and the subjects in the placebo group were kept in normal living ways (consuming white rice). Before baseline and after 3 months of the intervention, anthropometric measurements, blood chemical examinations, a nutrition survey, and physical activity measurements were conducted. The main finding showed that the percentages of patients with MetS in the PGBR group were reduced significantly compared to the placebo group (p < 0.05). Serum HDL cholesterol concentrations were significantly increased from 1.11 (mmol/l) to 1.44 (mmol/l) compared to the placebo group (p < 0.05). The findings suggest that PGBR may affect HDL cholesterol, PGBR might be considered in reducing the risk of MetS in Vietnam.
为了研究食用蒸煮过的预发芽糙米（PGBR）对人体代谢综合征（MetS）的治疗效果，在越南进行了一项随机对照试验。80名受试者（年龄65.1±3.81岁）被配对分为两组，一组每日摄入200克PGBR，安慰剂组的受试者保持正常生活方式（食用白米）。在干预前的基线期和干预3个月后，进行了人体测量、血液化学检查、营养调查和身体活动测量。主要研究结果表明，与安慰剂组相比，PGBR组中患有MetS的患者百分比显著降低（p<0.05）。与安慰剂组相比，血清高密度脂蛋白胆固醇浓度从1.11（mmol/l）显著增加到1.44（mmol/l）（p<0.05）。研究结果表明，PGBR可能会影响高密度脂蛋白胆固醇，在越南降低MetS风险方面可能会考虑使用PGBR。
