Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate The effects of an anti-inflammatory diet with or without curcumin supplementation on anthropometric measurements, concentrations of thyroid hormones, anti-TPO, and systemic inflammation in plasma and NFK-B in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with Hashimoto. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does prescribing an anti-inflammatory diet with or without curcumin supplementation significantly affect the changes in anthropometric measurements (weight, body mass index, BMI, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio) in patients with Hashimoto's disease? 2. Does prescribing an anti-inflammatory diet with or without curcumin supplementation significantly affect the changes in the serum concentration of thyroid hormones (T3, T4, TSH) in patients with Hashimoto's disease? 3. Does prescribing an anti-inflammatory diet with or without curcumin supplementation significantly affect the change of Anti-TPO concentration in patients with Hashimoto's disease? 4. Does prescribing an anti-inflammatory diet with or without curcumin supplementation significantly affect the changes in systemic inflammation indicators (hs-CRP, IL-6) in plasma and NF-κB in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with Hashimoto's disease?
Obesity is associated with increased cardiometabolic disease risk due, in part, to heightened chronic inflammation arising from adipose tissue. There are no current targeted therapies to prevent or reverse the chronic inflammation of obesity, and a better understanding of these inflammatory pathways in humans is key to future therapeutic interventions. This trial will determine both the anti-inflammatory potential of the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin, and the contribution of adipose inflammation to surrogate measures of cardiovascular disease in a randomized controlled trial of obese patients.
Since 2018, the Chicago Classification of Periodontal Diseases and Conditions, has listed Down syndrome (DS)/trisomy 21 (T21) as a systemic disease with periodontal implications. Numerous studies report an increased prevalence and severity of periodontitis in DS/T21 individuals under the age of 35. Approximately 35% of adolescents with DS show early signs of alveolar bone loss. However, very few studies have examined the role of immune deficiency in DS/T21 patients in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Indeed, periodontitis induced by bacterial plaque is virtually non-existent in the paediatric population, leaving the field to systemically-induced periodontitis. The investigators hypothesize that specific neutrophil phenotypes in DS/T21 patients are key to explaining the rapid progression to periodontitis. Investigator's primary objective is to characterize the different oral and blood neutrophil subtypes in DS/T21 children with gingival inflammation. Investigator's secondary objective is to assess the involvement of different neutrophil subtypes in early periodontitis in children with DS/T21.
Ambispective, national, multicenter observational cohort study aimed at characterizing the satellite dysimmune manifestations of clonal hematopoiesis, including Vexas (Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, Autoinflammatory and Somatic) syndrome.
Septic shock is associated with substantial burden in terms of both mortality and morbidity for survivors of this illness. Pre-clinical sepsis studies suggest that mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSCs) modulate inflammation, enhance pathogen clearance and tissue repair and reduce death. Our team has completed a Phase I dose escalation and safety clinical trial that evaluated MSCs in patients with septic shock. The Cellular Immunotherapy for Septic Shock Phase I (CISS) trial established that MSCs appear safe and that a randomized controlled trial (RCT) is feasible. Based on these data, the investigators have planned a phase II RCT (UC-CISS II) at several Canadian academic centres which will evaluate intermediate measures of clinical efficacy (primary outcome), as well as biomarkers, safety, clinical outcome measures, and a health economic analysis (secondary outcomes).
This study will assess the impact of 8-hour time restricted eating (8 hours of eating, 16 hours fasting) combined with a Mediterranean diet on metabolism and inflammation in adults with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
The purpose is to conduct a dietary intervention study in which human participants will consume beverages sweetened with erythritol or aspartame, each for 2 weeks, in a randomized crossover design
Cardiovascular diseases are the number 1 cause of death globally, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives each year (31% of deaths worldwide). Hypertension, with 1.13 billion people affected worldwide, is the leading risk factor for global mortality. Physical inactivity is among the modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. While the beneficial effects of physical activity on cardiovascular system are widely known, the mechanisms involved are not completely understood. Both exercise training and hypertension are linked to inflammation. Furthermore, there is evidence that gut microbiota regulates inflammatory patterns. Recent investigations showed a relationship between exercise training and the composition/functionality of the gut microbiota. Anyway, the modification of the composition and functionality of the gut microbiota in hypertension due to the exercise training and the relative involvement of oxidative stress and inflammation are not completely understood. In literature an association between gut microbiota composition and arterial stiffness is described, in particular, the investigators observed both a direct correlation between arterial stiffness and abundances of bacteria associated with altered gut permeability and inflammation; and an inverse relationship between arterial stiffness, microbiota diversity, and abundances of bacteria associated with most fit microbiota composition. Anyway, while these association were stable in animal studies, in human studies none of the identified interventional trials was able to demonstrate this relationship. Of note, only half of human studies measured BP, and very few adjusted the vascular analyses for BP variation, which is a major determinant of arterial stiffness. This is a non-profit, monocentric, non-pharmacological interventional study, a randomized controlled trial with three intervention arms, partial double-blind, aiming to verify the hypothesis that, in hypertensive patients in primary prevention with cardiovascular risk factors, physical exercise favorably modifies the intestinal bacterial flora compared to the probiotic, with a positive impact on cardiovascular health, and to demonstrate that this involves inflammation modulation. There will be 3 intervention arms, with 1:1:1 stratified randomization by gender: 1. Administration of controlled physical activity training; 2. Administration of probiotic; 3. Administration of placebo. Arms 2 and 3 will be double-blind. The intervention will last for three months, followed by a 6-month follow-up period. Afterwards, the medical team may be contacted for further tests/assessments or simply for information about the participant's health status, for a total duration of 24 months. The investigators hypothesize that hypertensive patients in cardiovascular primary prevention have a dysbiotic gut microbial signatures, that could be a new marker of early vascular aging. Secondly, the investigators anticipate that exercise training will modify both gut microbiota and hemodynamic profile, and that a relationship exists between gut microbiota and hemodynamic modifications. Thirdly, the investigators expect that the beneficial effects of exercise training are driven by positive changes in the inflammatory modulators.
To investigate the effects of peri-implantitis (a disease around dental implants) and its treatment at both local and systemic levels using clinical and biological parameters. One study with two parts which will run simultaneously. An initial observational study comparing cases and controls and a subsequent interventional study in which the cases will proceed to treatments and all participants will be followed up for 6 months.
It is a non-pharmacological (biological), spontaneous observational study. The main objective is to evaluate the correlation between inflammation markers and local adiposity, clinical risk factors and their possible variation following an AF ablation procedure
