NCT ID: NCT04978103 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Metabolic Syndrome in Postmenopausal Females

Effects of Gum Arabic on Metabolic Syndrome Parameters in Postmenopausal Women

Start date: December 4, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Gum Arabic ingestion has been proved to decrease some of the inflammatory markers in some metabolic diseases that have an inflammatory background. Nevertheless, the mechanism/s by which it does so is uncertain. This study is targeting one of the postulated molecular mechanisms at genetic level that may help to understand how Gum Arabic exerts its effect .The effects of GA on Nuclear Factor Kappa Beta, P38 Mitogen Activated Protein (MAP) Kinase levels, and on the expression of inflammatory cytokines genes are going to be assessed in postmenopausal females with Metabolic Syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT03789708 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Kidney Failure, Chronic

Effects of Gum Arabic Supplementation in Hemodialysis Patients

Start date: November 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Gum Arabic is a naturally produced gummy exudate from Acacia Senegal tree. It's a complex polysaccharide with proven prebiotic properties. Through its effect on intestinal bacteria, it's expected to reduce systemic levels of toxic bacterial metabolites and reduce inflammatory markers.By increasing fecal bacteria mass it's also expected to reduce blood urea level. These changes are potentially beneficial to hemodialysis patients who suffer from disturbed intestinal flora and a chronic inflammatory status. The investigators hypothesize that supplementing the diet of hemodialysis patients with Gum Arabic for four weeks would reduce inflammatory markers, increase total anti-oxidant capacity and reduce blood urea concentration.
