Filter by:The investigators aim to evaluate whether and to what extent glucose tolerance, beta cell function, insulin clearance, and glucose metabolic fluxes change in response to an acute increase in plasma triglycerides during lipid infusion, independently of free fatty acid (FFA) levels, in nondiabetic subjects.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a one of the potentially life-threatening complication of severe hypertriglyceridemia (HTG), with mortality around to 30%. HTG-associated PA and their complications management has to be the same as the other pancreatitis, but they are associated with the worse clinical outcomes. Triglycerides levels are correlated with the risk of pancreatitis and severity. Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) could provide positive effects in reducing triglyceridemia plasma levels during the acute phase of HTG-AP, and in prevention of recurrence. There is currently no difference about mortality in studies. Some authors have recommended its use only in severe HTG-AP and have precised the need of early initiation to have positive results. Despite such promising findings from studies, the effects of therapeutic plasma exchange on HTG-associated PA have never been specifically assessed and its benefits in critically ill patients with AP remains uncertain.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of olezarsen as compared to placebo on the percent change in fasting triglycerides (TG) from baseline.
Our preliminary reports have found in silico and in vitro that the milk thistle derivative Silibinin(A) is able to inhibit pancreatic lipase, in a similar way that the classical anti-obesity drug orlistat. Therefore, the investigators want to carry out the present trial in order to confirm that Silibinin(A) is able to in vivo inhibit pancreatic lipase, which will reduce the fat absorption and therefore will decrease the amount of energy from food intake. Considering that milk thistle has been extensively studied in humans as liver-protector, the investigators consider that the use of human subjects will be of great interest to accelerate the employment of this compound to improve the effectiveness of dietary treatment in overweight/obese subjects.
Elevated cholesterol, including triglyceride levels, can lead to the development of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. A diet that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids (O3FA) can improve triglyceride levels in a way that is safe and does not require medication. This is a single-center, prospective, unblinded, randomized-controlled dietary intervention study to assess the impact of an omega-3 fatty acid diet compared to a standard lifestyle intervention on serum triglyceride in patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The study consists of an 8-week dietary treatment period followed by an 8-week observation period.
The objectives of this trial are to assess the effects of adding 2 servings/d of either full-fat or low-fat fermented dairy products to the diet, as a replacement for non-dairy foods with macronutrient composition similar to the low-fat fermented dairy condition, on insulin sensitivity, erythrocyte fatty acid profile and other cardiometabolic health markers in metabolically at-risk adults.
The objective of this study is to assess the effects of replacing energy from SoFAS with energy from avocado on non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and other aspects of the cardiometabolic health profile including fasting lipoprotein lipid and particle concentrations, insulin sensitivity and blood pressure in men and women with elevated triglycerides (TG).
Hypertriglyceridemia is a serious condition in the Mexican population and it is considered a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Current efforts to prevent dyslipidemia and lipids alteration include the development of functional products as an alternative for the management of hypertriglyceridemia. Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are a recognized good source of bioactive compounds, mainly phenolic compounds, total dietary fiber (insoluble and soluble fiber, resistant starch and oligosaccharides), saponins, and phytosterols that exert hypolipidemic effects. In this sense, the development of beans-based food products is an alternative for improving the general health status. In previous work, a beans-oats snack bar formulation was found to be a promising potential functional product. In order to validate those results, the aim of this works was to assess a clinical trial was conducted with Mexican women to assess the effect of daily consumption of the functional product on serum triglycerides and certain plasma proteins involved in lipids metabolism in a clinical trial. The clinical trial was 2 months, randomized parallel study where 32 women with elevated triglycerides were randomized into the treatment group and control group. The Control group received nutritional orientation whereas the treatment group received the orientation and consumed 50 g of the product per day. Fasting blood samples were collected at baseline and the end of the study, obtaining serum and plasma for analysis of lipids profile, glucose, and biomarkers. To determine changes in plasma proteins, a 182 protein Human Obesity Antibody Array was used, and the results were analyzed using a bioinformatic-based analysis from Ingenuity Pathways Analysis (QIAGEN)
The primary objective of the study is to determine the proportion of patients with elevated triglycerides (TG), without familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) due to loss of function (LoF) mutations in lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and a history of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG)-associated acute pancreatitis (AP) who experience a recurrent episode of AP after treatment with evinacumab versus placebo. The secondary objectives of the study are: - To determine the change in the standard lipid profile after therapy with evinacumab versus placebo - To determine the changes in specialty lipoprotein parameters (ApoC3, ApoB48, ApoB100, and nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR] lipid profile) after therapy with evinacumab versus placebo - To measure the number of AP episodes per patient - To assess the safety and tolerability of evinacumab - To assess the potential immunogenicity of evinacumab - To assess the concentrations of total evinacumab and total angiopoietin-like 3 (ANGPTL3)
The primary objective was to investigate the effect of 12-week treatment of Omacor on fasting serum triglycerides (TG) in Chinese subjects with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). The secondary objectives were to investigate the safety and tolerability and effect of Omacor on lipid parameters after 12 weeks treatment.
