About this trial

This prospective observational study investigates the association between personality traits and routine laboratory abnormalities in adults undergoing routine health assessment. Personality traits are assessed using the Five-Factor Personality Inventory (FFPI), while biochemical data are obtained from routine laboratory testing, including markers of glycemic status, liver function, lipid metabolism, renal function, and complete blood count parameters.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the association between FFPI personality trait scores and the total number of laboratory abnormalities identified during routine clinical evaluation. Secondary analyses will examine associations between personality traits and glycemic status, fasting plasma glucose concentration, liver function markers, lipid profile parameters, renal function indicators, complete blood count parameters, and the total number of laboratory abnormalities.

The findings may contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between psychological characteristics and biological health indicators and may support the development of more personalized approaches to health promotion, risk assessment, and disease prevention.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of Laboratory Abnormalities

Total number of routine laboratory parameters outside their corresponding reference intervals, expressed as a count of abnormal laboratory findings. Laboratory parameters include fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT, U/L), alanine aminotransferase (ALT, U/L), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, U/L), total cholesterol (mg/dL), serum creatinine (mg/dL), urea (mg/dL), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, mL/min/1.73 m²), and complete blood count parameters measured according to standard laboratory units.

Time frame
At baseline

Secondary outcomes

1

Five-Factor Personality Inventory (FFPI) Scores

Personality traits assessed using the Five-Factor Personality Inventory (FFPI), including Neuroticism, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness dimensions, expressed as standardized questionnaire scores.

Time frame
At baseline
2

Glycemic Status

Classification of participants according to fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL) concentration measured during routine laboratory assessment as: Normoglycemia (\<100 mg/dL) Prediabetes (100-125 mg/dL) Hyperglycemia (≥126 mg/dL or previously diagnosed diabetes mellitus)
