NCT ID: NCT06420817 Active, not recruiting - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Effect of a Customised Lifestyle Medicine Strategy on Lowering Blood Lipid Levels in Indian Physicians

CLIP
Start date: February 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lifestyle medicine is a medical specialty that uses evidence-based therapeutic interventions to prevent, treat, and reverse chronic conditions. Studies have shown that a 50 mg/dl reduction in LDL reduces the risk of developing stroke by 20%, and a 10 mm Hg reduction in systolic BP reduces the risk of developing MACE by 22% and stroke by 41%. The CLIP (Cholesterol Lowering Lifestyle Intervention Project) is an innovative initiative proposed to evaluate the combined effect of an Indian version of Portfolio diet-based nutrition strategy, intermittent fasting, exercise, sleep, and stress reduction techniques on lowering blood lipid levels in health professionals and their family. The study aims to evaluate the effect of CLIP on changes in blood pressure, weight, HbA1C levels, blood CRP levels, and other blood parameters.

NCT ID: NCT06334666 Not yet recruiting - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

The Efficacy of Pedometer-motivated Physical Activity for the Management of Patients With MASLD.

Start date: April 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study conducted a health survey among Thai adults in 2022 and found a significant increase in obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), leading to metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The prevalence of NAFLD was 19.7%, with higher rates in individuals with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. MASLD is associated with insulin resistance and genetic polymorphisms, particularly the patatin like phospholipase domain containing 3-rs738409 variant. Additionally, physical activity was inversely related to liver disease risk, with higher step counts associated with reduced incidence of NAFLD and liver-related mortality. The study aims to investigate the impact of dietary advice and pedometer use on physical activity levels and health outcomes in MASLD patients over 24 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT06035094 Recruiting - Hypertension Clinical Trials

An Exercise Intervention to Improve Overall Brain Health

Start date: January 23, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of 10 weeks of exercise on overall brain health, reduction in blood pressure, and the number of blood vessels in the back of the eyes in patients with hypertension and have a body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - To test the effect of moderate vs intensive exercise on Brain Care Score outcomes. - To ascertain the differential impact of moderate vs high intensity exercise in reducing hypertension and its downstream effects.

NCT ID: NCT05383456 Completed - HIV Clinical Trials

The Visceral Adiposity Measurement and Observation Study

VAMOS
Start date: April 18, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Visceral Adiposity Measurement and Observation Study

NCT ID: NCT05254938 Recruiting - Hypertension Clinical Trials

The Halland Obesity Municipal Effort for Children

Start date: January 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A retrospective study to investigate the method called The Halland Obesity Municipal Effort for children. All children participating in the intervention since the start of this specific method will be eligible for inclusion. The aims are to describe participants and the method-specific activities they are participating in, as well as the effect on their health and school grades.

NCT ID: NCT05030844 Completed - Type2 Diabetes Clinical Trials

The Effect of IMB Model-Based Diabetes Education and Motivational Interviewing on Care Outcomes in Adults With T2DM

Start date: July 14, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study was conducted to examine the effects of IMB model-based diabetes education and Motivational Interviewing for adults with Type 2 diabetes on care outcomes This study was conducted to examine the effects of IMB model-based diabetes education and Motivational Interviewing interventions on care outcomes for adults with Type 2 diabetes (diabetes knowledge, health belief, self-efficacy, self-management, HbA1c and BKİ).

NCT ID: NCT04371614 Completed - Stress Clinical Trials

PTSC: Improving Hypertension Control Among Poor Midlife African American Women

PTSC-RCT
Start date: July 14, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

African American women are more likely to suffer higher rates of uncontrolled hypertension than non-Hispanic white women. Prime Time Sister Circles® (PTSC) empowers women to proactively manage their blood pressure by promoting the effective use of preventive health care; encouraging self monitoring of blood pressure, and teaching strategies for managing stress, increasing physical activity, and improving nutrition. The 12-week community-based, holistic lifestyle intervention aims to improve blood pressure control by improving health knowledge, health efficacy, and health behaviors. PTSC potentially reduces health care costs through prevention, earlier detection, and improved management of hypertension through a culturally tailored program addressing specific barriers experienced by midlife and late life African American women. This 5-year study is a collaboration between The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Disparities Solutions (HCHDS), The Gaston & Porter Health Improvement Center, Inc. (GPHIC), and the American Institutes for Research (AIR). The investigators seek to determine the impact and cost-effectiveness of the PTSC intervention among low-income African American women with uncontrolled hypertension. To do this, the investigators will randomly assign 600 women between the ages of 40 and 75 who receive their care from an federally qualified health center (FQHC) to either PTSC (n=300) or a comparison group (n=300) who will receive the PTSC intervention after they have been observed for 15 month. Using data from in person surveys and clinical measures conducted during in-person data collection meetings, the investigative team will determine if PTSC help low-income African American women effectively manage their blood pressure.

NCT ID: NCT04003038 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in Healing Abdominal Incision in Obese Patients Undergoing Breast Reconstruction Surgery

Start date: May 2, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This trial studies the safety and how well negative pressure wound therapy works in healing the abdominal incision in obese patients undergoing free flap breast reconstruction surgery. Using negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) instead of standard dressing (bandages) may improve wound healing at the surgical site in the abdomen where tissue was collected for breast reconstruction surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03519620 Completed - Child Development Clinical Trials

Swimming and Water Walking on Spirometry Values

ESWWSV
Start date: March 3, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To study the effects of swimming with water walking in children aged between 6 and 12 years in terms of spirometric values.

NCT ID: NCT03251950 Completed - Blood Pressure Clinical Trials

Food Resource Equity and Sustainability for Health

FRESH
Start date: August 22, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Food insecurity increases the risk of obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cancer. American Indians (AIs) in Oklahoma are three times as likely as Whites to be food-insecure (21% vs. 7%) and have burdens of obesity (42%), hypertension (38%), and diabetes (15%) that exceed those of the general US population. While individual-level obesity prevention efforts have been implemented with AIs, few environmental interventions to reduce food insecurity and improve fruit and vegetable intake have been conducted with tribal communities. Community gardening interventions have been shown to increase vegetable and fruit intake, reduce food insecurity, and lower BMI among children and adults; however, to date, no such interventions have been evaluated with AI families. The proposed study, entitled "Food Equity Resource and Sustainability for Health (FRESH)," will assess the impact of a tribally-initiated community gardening intervention on vegetable and fruit intake, food insecurity, BMI, and blood pressure in families living on the Osage Nation reservation in Oklahoma.
