Filter by:The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of evolocumab subcutaneously once every 2 weeks (Q2W) and once monthly (QM), compared with placebo, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in adults with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous (SC) evolocumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) and monthly (QM), compared with ezetimibe, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in hypercholesterolemic adults unable to tolerate an effective dose of a statin (HMG-CoA (5-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A) reductase inhibitors).
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of evolocumab administered subcutaneously every 2 weeks (Q2W) and monthly (QM) when used in combination with a statin, compared with placebo, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia.
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of evolocumab subcutaneous (SC) monotherapy every 2 weeks (Q2W) and monthly (QM), compared with placebo and ezetimibe, on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in adults with a 10-year Framingham risk score of 10% or less.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of regular low fat diary consumption on markers of cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic (cardiometabolic) health including body composition (% body fat, body weight), blood lipids, blood glucose, arterial compliance, blood pressure, insulin sensitivity and resting metabolic rate.
The main objective of the current study is to examine whether a high intake of regular-fat cheeses (Danbo and Cheddar) affect blood lipids differently than an isocaloric intake of either other fatty animal food products or of starchy carbohydrates. Furthermore, effects on fat digestibility, blood pressure, anthropometry, bile acid metabolism and insulin sensitivity is investigated. To do this, a randomized crossover intervention study with 3x14 days full diet periods (cheese diet, meat diet or carb diet)will be conducted in 16 postmenopausal women. Between the diet periods there will be at least 14 days of wash-out where the subjects eat their habitual diets. Fasting blood samples will be drawn before and after the diet periods, and also a non-fasting blood sample will be drawn after the diet periods. Furthermore, total feces is collected the last 5 days of each diet period.
Individuals with serious mental illnesses (SMI) face high rates of medical comorbidity as well as challenges in managing these conditions. A growing workforce of certified peer specialists is available to help these individuals more effectively manage their health and health care. However, there is little existing research examining the effectiveness of peer-led medical self-management programs for this population. in this trial, participants were randomized to either the Health and Recovery Peer program (HARP), a medical disease self-management program led by certified peer specialists, or to care as usual. Assessments were conducted at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
Despite numerous studies of meal components in humans, little is still known about how different meals influence on metabolism. The purpose of this study is to a gain knowledge of how a balanced test meal with either lean seafood (example:cod) or meat as the main protein source will: 1. affect the postprandial metabolism acutely (test-meal at beginning of the study) 2. affect the postprandial metabolism after 4 weeks controlled intervention (test meal at end of intervention period) 3. affect gut microbiota composition
The main goal of this study is to determine how taking efavirenz affects the levels of pitavastatin in the bloodstream when both drugs are taken together and to see how darunavir with ritonavir affects the levels of pitavastatin in the bloodstream. Secondary goals are to see how taking pitavastatin affects the levels in the blood of efavirenz when both drugs are taken together and to see how taking pitavastatin affects the levels in the blood of darunavir.
Increased postprandial plasma triglycerides are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Chronic consumption of carbohydrates is associated with increased levels of triglycerides. Very few studies have assessed the effect of acute consumption of carbohydrates on plasma triglycerides and lipoprotein production and clearance. The present study aims to assess the effects of acute administration of glucose and fructose on hepatic and intestinal lipoprotein production.
