Filter by:The study in question is an interventional study with nutritional intervention. the aim of the study is to evaluate whether a diet enriched with tomatoes can have favorable effects on: - specific aspects associated with NAFLD, such as the degree of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis; - circulating levels of molecules correlated with the degree of generalized and hepatic inflammation and the blood concentrations of metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors associated with abdominal obesity; - intestinal barrier; - body composition; - intestinal microbiota; - symptoms of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) in patients with NAFLD.
The study in question is an interventional study with nutritional intervention. The aim of the study is to evaluate whether the adoption of two different models of Mediterranean Diet, based on the different percentage of carbohydrates and lipids, associated with a program of moderate intensity aerobic physical exercise, in patients with obesity and NAFLD can exercise, after only 3 months, effects on: - specific aspects associated with NAFLD, such as the degree of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis; - circulating levels of molecules correlated with the degree of generalized and hepatic inflammation and the blood concentrations of metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors associated with abdominal obesity; - intestinal barrier; - body composition; - intestinal microbiota; - symptoms of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) in patients with NAFLD.
Psychological distress (anxiety and depression) is common in and experienced differently by people living with long-term health conditions (LTCs). Being able to measure whether psychological distress is related to living with a LTC would allow researchers and clinicians to provide interventions specifically tailored to the challenges of living with a LTC and therefore provide the most appropriate support for these patients. Such a measure would also be useful in research to identify the presence of illness-related distress in different patient groups. This project will therefore create a new measure of illness-related distress that has applications for both research and clinical practice. This will involve the psychometric validation of the new illness-related distress measure to test how valid and reliable the measure is. The aim of the project is to provide initial validation of the Illness Related Distress Scale in a community sample, recruited through online platforms. The objective of the study is to gather initial validity and reliability data for the scale.
The aim of this study is to better understand how tenapanor affects the metagenomics and metabolomics of patients with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). Tenapanor is the newest FDA-approved agent for IBS-C. It is a small molecule that inhibits the NHE3 receptor, leading to impaired sodium and water absorption in the intestine. Previous clinical trials comparing tenapanor to placebo showed that a 50 mg dose of tenapanor led to increased bowel movements and decreased abdominal pain. This study consists of an 8-week treatment period in which subjects will ingest one capsule of tenapanor (50 mg per dose), twice daily, and send in stool samples following 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment.
Multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial comparing ebastine and mebeverine as treatment of irritable bowel syndrome Trial rationale 1. To perform a randomized superiority trial comparing the clinical efficacy of ebastine and mebeverine 2. To evaluate the impact of treatment with ebastine compared to mebeverine on quality of life and quality-adjusted life years Primary objective To provide further evidence of the superiority of histamine 1 receptor antagonism as novel treatment for patients with non-constipated IBS, as compared to mebeverine, one of the spasmolytics currently used as first line treatment of IBS. Secondary objective(s) To provide evidence that the histamine 1 receptor antagonist ebastine is more effective in reducing abdominal pain compared to the commonly used antispasmodic mebeverine
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorder (FGID) characterized by recurrent episodes of defecation related abdominal pain associated with abnormal bowel habit. Several studies have reported significant alterations in the gut microbiota that may promote the development and persistence of IBS. Some Bifidobacterium species, mainly Bifidobacterium adolescentis, have a documented immunomodulatory effect and can modulate visceral hypersensitivity or improve the integrity of the intestinal epithelium barrier thorough its well-known ability to produce g-aminobutyric acid Thus, designed a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Bifidobacterium adolescentis PRL2019 on abdominal pain symptoms in pediatric patients with Irritative bowel sindorom
The study objective is to demonstrate the equivalence of the Atmo Motility Gas Capsule System with the predicate SmartPill in measuring gastric emptying time and colonic transit time through examination of device agreement.
This is a longitudinal observational study on patients with gastrointestinal and related disease. The study will be conducted for at least 10 years, following each participant over time, as they either go through relapses and remissions, or progression of their disease.
This study aims to determine the most effective treatment with Transcutaneous Electrical Acustimulation (TEA) for Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) by comparing efficacy between 5 separate sessions. The rectum pressure as measured by a device called a barostat will be compared between visits. Each session will be testing a different combination of frequency and body position of the electrodes. Electrodes placed at either the wrist or knee will be stimulated at either 25 Hz or 100 Hz.
Dietary fiber is well known to have health promoting effects, including reduced blood glucose and cholesterol levels. Bread is the most important source of dietary fiber in the Norwegian diet. Production of bread has changed from the traditionally use of sourdough, to yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as the dominating leavening agent in modern industrial production. Sourdough naturally contains bacteria, and through the fermentation process these bacteria release several components that are not found in modern bread using yeast. It has been shown that sourdough may have positive health effects, including on blood glucose regulation. The aim of the project is to investigate if intake of sourdough may give positive health effects compared to beard with yeast.
