This metadata record and it's attached files make statements about the kinds of data collected as part of this research, and set out policies for governance of that data, now and in the future.
Description: A national Aotearoa New Zealand dietary intervention study to evaluate the effect of a 12-week whole-diet intervention incorporating nutritious domestically-produced food and beverage products and dietary change support, compared with habitual diet, on the MetS-Z score in individuals at risk of developing metabolic disease in a randomised controlled trial.
De-identified data that underlie the results may be available in published study results including but not limited to reports to the funder, peer-reviewed publications, clinical trial registry websites, scientific meetings, and regulatory/marketing submissions. If agreed, access to the data begins 9 months following article publication and ends 36 months following article publication, and will only be available to investigators whose proposed use of the data has been approved by the Senior Leadership Team of this trial.
