Filter by:Dairy consumption has shown associations with decreased incidence of cardiometabolic diseases. With the growing interest in plant-based eating, and the mounting evidence for the cardiovascular benefits of plant forward diets, national dietary guidelines have pivoted away from promoting exclusive daily dairy consumption. Soymilk is the most nutritionally comparable non-dairy plant-based alternative to cow's milk. Although the DGA, Health Canada, and various pediatric associations recognize fortified soymilk as the only non-dairy alternative equivalent to cow's milk and it can carry an approved health claim for coronary heart disease risk reduction based on the soy protein that it contains, soymilk is classified by the NOVA classification as an ultra-processed food (the opposite of the classification of cow's milk as an unprocessed or minimally processed food). To be an acceptable iso-sweet alternative to cow's milk, soymilk is also often sweetened with sucrose, which is designated as an added sugar, whereas the lactose that sweetens cow's milk is not (despite lactose in cow's milk being present in quantities that are double that of sucrose in soymilk products designed to be iso-sweet analogues of cow's milk). With near universal recommendations from major public health authorities to reduce the intake of both ultra-processed foods and added sugars and the FDA proposing to update its "healthy" claim criteria to limit added sugars, the role of soymilk as a "healthy" non-dairy alternative to cow's milk is in serious question. The effect of soy protein on other cardiometabolic outcomes is also unclear. To address this question and better inform health claims and guideline development, the investigators will conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of the effect of soy protein as soy milk, in substitution for cow's milk, on various intermediate cardiometabolic mediators.
Breastfeeding could effectively be associated with a lower risk of future type 2 diabetes (T2D) in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), but the short-term protective impact of puerperal breastfeeding on maternal metabolic recovery of GDM women remains unascertained. The investigators recruited GDM participants at 6-9 weeks postpartum and retrieved clinical diagnoses of GDM from electronic medical records. Feeding patterns were collected via phone calls. Glucose metabolism parameters and lipid profiling were performed on fasting plasma samples collected from patients 6-9 weeks postpartum (20 breastfeeding cases vs. 15 formula feeding cases).
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the acute effects on postprandial lipemia and glycemia by supplementing a high-fat meal with either white button (WB) or shiitake (SH) mushroom powder in relatively healthy adults, aged 18 to 35.
CBD may affect metabolic control and energy intake. However, there is currently little data regarding these specific outcomes in humans. Therefore, this study will investigate whether a single 300 mg dose of CBD can improve metabolic control following a meal and/or reduce energy intake at a subsequent meal. Healthy, adult volunteers will complete two conditions in a crossover design, comparing outcomes following both CBD and placebo supplementation.
Late subclinical cardiovascular disease in testicular cancer survivors exposed to cisplatin-based chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant
Purpose The LDL-C is a very important marker of the lipid panel which allows the introduction of a treatment and then the follow-up to prevent the cardiovascular risk. Friedewald et al have established the most widely used equation at the present time. However, it has many well-known limitations, as being false in postprandial period. New equations have been developed recently. Our work consisted in the assessment of the accuracy of Friedewald, Sampson and Martin-Hopkins equations and evaluated the consequences in terms of misclassification. Given that European recommendations allow the realization of lipid profiles in postprandial period, we studied the accuracy of these equations in non-fasting state . Method The LDL cholesterol concentrations will be calculated using at least three different equations (Friedewald, Sampson, Martin-Hopkins). Results will be compared between equations and between calculated and measured concentrations determined using an ultracentrifugation method. The study is conducted out according to The Code of Ethics of the World Medical Association (Declaration of Helsinki) and obtained the agreement of the Scientific and Ethics Committee of the Hospices Civils de Lyon (LDL EQUATION CNIL 21_488) Hypothesis To evaluate the most accurate equation in different conditions: - Fasting and non-fasting state - In subjects with normal or dyslipidemic lipid profile To evaluate the clinical impact on risk re-classification and lipid treatment goals if LDL-c is calculated using the best equation instead of the Friedewald's.
Nutritional and metabolic alterations in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) such as inflammation, oxidative stress, dyslipidemia, and poor nutritional status which associate with poor clinical outcome can potentially be targeted and ameliorated by interventions using nutritional supplements. The investigators evaluated the effects of 8 weeks of oral supplementation with flaxseed oil and pomegranate dry extract on markers of inflammation, lipid profile and nutritional status of individuals undergoing hemodialysis (HD). The goal of this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of 8 weeks of oral supplementation with flaxseed oil and pomegranate dry extract on markers of inflammation, lipid profile and nutritional status of individuals undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Participants will be randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, to supplementation group to receive twice a day 1 capsule of 1.000 mg of flaxseed oil plus 1 capsule of 600mg of pomegranate dry extract; or to placebo group, to receive twice a day 1 capsule of 1.000 mg of sunflower oil plus 1 capsule of 600mg of microcrystalline celulose.
The subject of doctoral dissertation: Assessment of the effects of a meatless, ketogenic restrictive diet on body composition, strength capacity, oxidative stress and immune response During planning of research and topic of the doctoral dissertation, it was considered how to modify a standard ketogenic diet rich in saturated fatty acids so that the use of this model of nutrition has the most anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, it was decided to conduct a research to check whether a diet rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids will show such an effect when following a high-fat diet. Hypotheses: 1. The ketogenic diet reduces systemic inflammation. 2.The ketogenic diet reduces oxidative stress. 3. The ketogenic diet reduces body fat. 4. A ketogenic diet does not worsen strength performance.
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) represent a major contributor to mortality, morbidity, and healthcare costs. Effective therapies are widely available; however, adherence is low. This contributes to worse patient outcomes and increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The once-daily polypill leverages a population-based strategy that has previously demonstrated efficacy in improving adherence and access to therapy in low-resource settings, making it an innovative approach for improving post-ACS care. This study aims to investigate the utility of a polypill-based strategy for patients with ACS with drug eluting stent (DES) placement. The polypill will consist of a high-intensity statin (rosuvastatin 40 mg daily), aspirin 81 mg daily, and either clopidogrel 75 mg or prasugrel 10 mg daily.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Obicetrapib in Participants with a History of Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).
