NCT ID: NCT06370936 Recruiting - Blood Pressure Clinical Trials

The EXPLAIN Study: Exploring Plant-Based Meat Analogues for Their Impact on Health

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

Plant-based diets with little to no meat are considered healthy and sustainable by the general public. The increasingly popular plant-based meat analogues (PBMAs) allow consumers to easily decrease meat intake while maintaining their dietary patterns. However, scientific knowledge on the health impact of PBMAs on humans is currently very limited. The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate if and to what extent replacing all meat products in an average Dutch diet with currently commercially available PBMAs affects the systolic blood pressure of middle-aged men and women in a 2x8 week fully dietary controlled crossover intervention study. The secondary objectives are to assess the effect of this replacement of meat products with PBMAs on cardiometabolic health, gut microbiome, intestinal health, well-being, and underlying biological mechanisms. 114 men and women with a BMI of 23-40 kg/m2, aged 45-75 years will be included in the study. Participants will follow both an 8-week completely controlled diet in which all meats are of plant-based origin (PBMAs) and an 8-week diet in which all meats are of animal origin in randomized order with a 10-week wash-out period. Before the intervention starts, the participants will be characterized to describe them on anthropometrics, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, genetics, sleep patterns, and stress levels. Before the start and at the end of each 8-week dietary intervention period, several measurements, including systolic blood pressure monitoring and secondary outcome measures will be done. Additionally, systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be monitored throughout the dietary interventions and a small quantity of parameters related to the secondary objectives will be measured.

NCT ID: NCT06347094 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Precision Nutrition to Improve Cardiometabolic Health With Dietary (Poly)Phenols

PRE-CARE-DIET
Start date: April 22, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This chronic study aims at assessing whether the effects of a personalized, plant-based diet rich in (poly)phenols on cardiometabolic health depend on the capability to metabolize dietary (poly)phenols, creating predictive models able to explain, at individual level, the cardiometabolic response. This study presents an observational part, for targeted recruitment and volunteers characterization, and an experimental part for the dietary and deep phenotyping.

NCT ID: NCT05994313 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Cardiometabolic Health

STARchy Staples: a Randomised Controlled Trial on Cardiometabolic Health

STARCHy
Start date: September 9, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

An investigation into habitual potato consumption (mashed, boiled, baked) on sleep quality and chronic glycaemic control, established risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases, versus habitual consumptions of non-nutrient-dense starchy staples (white rice, pasta, and couscous).

NCT ID: NCT05856318 Recruiting - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Cardiometabolic Health in First Time Pregnancy

POPPY
Start date: May 24, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Women who experience placental complications (syndromes) during pregnancy, such as pre-eclampsia (high blood pressure and kidney problems), gestational hypertension (high blood pressure during pregnancy) and fetal growth restriction (baby being small) have twice the risk of developing heart disease and diabetes later in life, compared to women who have a healthy pregnancy. This study aims to assess risk factors for heart disease and diabetes in women who are actively trying to conceive, before and during their pregnancy, and 9-12 months after delivery of their baby, to see whether placental syndromes make a difference to their heart health. This will allow us to understand, if, and how, placental syndromes increase the risk of heart disease and diabetes, and, therefore, how best to reduce this risk and potentially prevent placental syndromes in the future. The investigators will also recruit women who are NOT planning pregnancy, as a control group.

NCT ID: NCT05718245 Recruiting - Air Pollution Clinical Trials

HEPA, PM2.5, and Cardiometabolic Health

Start date: March 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized, double-blind, crossover trial is to test the hypothesis that a longer-term indoor HEPA filtration intervention can improve cardiometabolic profiles by reducing indoor PM2.5 exposures in at-risk individuals.

NCT ID: NCT05628012 Recruiting - Weight Loss Clinical Trials

Circadian Time Restricted Eating

CTRE
Start date: April 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this study is to learn more about how the time in which participants consume their meals relative to their personalized circadian rhythm influences their overall cardiometabolic health and weight. The investigators are hoping to discover if a circadian-based time restricted eating intervention will improve cardiometabolic health and decrease weight. The protocol is a 46 day prospective cohort study that includes both field and in-laboratory data collection in overweight and obese individuals.

NCT ID: NCT05582720 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Cardiometabolic Health

Cardioprotective Properties of Vegan Burger

VeganBurger
Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Several studies over the last decades have demonstrated the important role of nutrition in the development of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. One dietary component that has been in the center of scientific research is red meat and processed meat (e.g., cold cuts, sausages, burgers). Burger, in particular, is one of the most popular red meat products and its consumption has increased rapidly in recent years due to the expansion of fast-food restaurants, its wide availability and its low price. However, due to its high animal fat content which is mostly saturated and high degree of processing, its nutritional value and the safety of its long-term high consumption have been questioned. The wide acceptance of burger by the general population, combined with the perception that it is a "burdensome" food for health, makes it an ideal subject for interventions aiming at modifying its nutritional value without downgrading its organoleptic characteristics and increasing its cost. Such an approach could be applied to the meat industry in order to develop innovative, functional meat analogues of high nutritional and organoleptic value, which could find acceptance by both meat-eating and vegetarian/vegan populations. Therefore, the aim of the present double-blind, randomized, crossover clinical trial is to explore the potential cardioprotective properties of "vegan burger", a novel meat analogue developed through the substitution of animal proteins and lipids with plant-based constituents using innovative technologies, against the conventional animal-based burger, in apparently healthy volunteers.

NCT ID: NCT04956003 Recruiting - Physical Activity Clinical Trials

Optimizing Cardiometabolic Health, Cognition and Academic Performance in Children (HAPHC)

Start date: September 27, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Children and young people are moving less and less. In combination with an unhealthy diet, this has led to a sharp increase in overweight and obesity among children worldwide. Very often, physical illnesses occur in adolescence that can be directly attributed to the overweight and obesity. In order to protect children from these consequences in time, a daily exercise unit of 45 minutes is built into their learning. This exercise will take place in addition to physical education classes as part of your child's school day and will be conducted by a teacher. We will examine the children of the participating schools with regard to health-related characteristics.
