NCT ID: NCT06405269 Not yet recruiting - Lipids Clinical Trials

A Multicentre Prospective Cohort Study: Effect of (Neo)Adjuvant Therapy on Lipids in Young Breast Cancer Patients

Start date: May 6, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Previous studies have shown differences in the effects of different endocrine drugs on blood lipids in breast cancer, and dyslipidaemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and it has been previously reported that the leading cause of death in postmenopausal patients with breast cancer is cardiovascular disease, but the effects of endocrine drug therapy on blood lipids in young breast cancer patients (age ≤40) are not clear. Previously, our group conducted a preliminary retrospective analysis of young patients on endocrine therapy and found that dyslipidaemia was also a common adverse effect of treatment in young breast cancer patients; therefore, dyslipidaemia induced by antineoplastic therapy not only occurs in postmenopausal patients, but is also prevalent in premenopausal and even younger patients. Therefore, this study intends to evaluate the effects of different treatment regimens on lipids in early-stage young breast cancer patients and to explore the optimal timing of lipid-lowering drug interventions to provide a basis for clinical practice.

NCT ID: NCT05199012 Completed - Inflammation Clinical Trials

Oral Supplementation With a Black Pepper Extract

Start date: December 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, two-arm trial of N=94 apparently healthy men and women to be recruited at a single investigational center in Northeast Ohio. Subjects will attend three study visits. During Visit 1, subjects will be screened for participation (i.e., medical history, physical exam, routine blood work, background baseline diet). Over the next 12 weeks, subjects will attend Visits 2 (baseline) and 3 (week 12), wherein assessments of body weight, waist circumference, urinary ketones, serum glucose, insulin, liver enzymes as well as other biomarkers of metabolic health, quality of life (SF-36 questionnaire), and various visual analog scales (VAS) for appetite, satiety, and cravings will be made.

NCT ID: NCT05188365 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

NCT ID: NCT03521700 Completed - Blood Pressure Clinical Trials

Compare Effects of Intensive Versus Conventional Lipid-lowering Therapy in Patients With Severe Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis Undergoing Stent Placement

Start date: June 1, 2013
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Although expert consensuses recommend the use of statins in the treatment of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis, in patients with severe atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis undergoing stent placement, the related investigation focused on renal protection by intensive lipid-lowering therapy is scant , and the optimal target level for lipid reduction remain uncertain. Therefore, we hypothesized that intensive lipid lowering could offer more benefits with respect to renal function in the patients with percutaneous renal artery stenting. We conducted the prospective randomized unblinded trial to compare the renal-protective effect of intensive lipid lowering with that of conventional lipid lowering in patients underwent renal artery stenting (75 patients in each study group)

NCT ID: NCT03270527 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

RISSCI-1 Blood Cholesterol Response Study

RISSCI-1
Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Raised blood cholesterol (also referred to as blood LDL-cholesterol) is a major risk factor for developing heart disease. Dietary saturated fat is recognised as the main dietary component responsible for raising blood LDL-cholesterol, and reducing its intake has been the mainstay of dietary guidelines for the prevention of heart disease for over 30 years. However, there is very little evidence for a direct link between the intake of saturated fat and risk of dying from heart disease. One explanation for this, is that the link between saturated fat intake and heart disease is not a direct one, but relies heavily on the ability of saturated fat to raise blood LDL-cholesterol levels. This LDL cholesterol-raising effect of saturated fat is complex, and highly variable between individuals because of differences in the metabolism of dietary fat and cholesterol between people. The main aim of this study is to measure the amount of variation in blood LDL-cholesterol in healthy volunteers at the Universities of Surrey and Reading in response to lowering the amount of saturated fat in the diet to the level recommended by the government for the prevention of heart disease. This collaborative project between the Universities of Reading, Surrey and Imperial ('RISSCI-1' Blood Cholesterol Response Study') will permit identification of two subgroups of men who show either a high or low LDL-cholesterol response to a reduction in dietary saturated intake. These two groups of participants will be provided with an opportunity to participate in a similar follow-up study ('RISSCI-2') that will also take place at the University of Surrey and Reading. In this follow-up study, the participants will be asked to repeat a similar study protocol as for RISSCI-1, but undergo more detailed measurements to investigate the metabolic and genetic origins of how saturated fat is metabolised in the body and influences blood LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C).

NCT ID: NCT03206593 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Ischemic Heart Failure

Serum Lipids and Glucose Levels in Relation to CVD Outcomes in Patients With Ischemic Heart Failure

Start date: January 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Current prospective cohort study is to evaluate the association between fasting lipid profiles (including total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein A, apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein(a)) and fasting plasma glucose at admission with cardiovascular disease outcomes (including fatal and non-fatal myocardial infarction, fatal and non-fatal ischemic stroke, re-hospitalization due to heart failure, revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting, or cardiovascular mortality) and all-cause mortality.in patients with ischemic heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction < 45 % evaluated by echocardiography during 12 months follow-up.

NCT ID: NCT02160496 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

A Study to Assess the Effect of Diets With Different Protein Composition - Mainly Coming From Lean Red Meat - in Body Weight and Lipid Profile in Overweight and Obese Women

Start date: April 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the study is to assess the effect of diets with different protein composition (20%, 27% and 35%), mainly coming from animal proteins such as lean red meat, on body weight and lipid profile in overweight and obese women. A dietary intervention is carried out during 3 months in 90 women who are individually randomized to an hypocaloric diet with three types of macronutrient composition: 1) 35% proteins, 30% fat and 35% carbohydrates; 2) 27% proteins, 30% fat and 43% carbohydrates and 3) 20% proteins, 30% fat and 50% carbohydrates. Around 50% of total proteins in diet come from lean red meat (leg or shoulder of lamb) by providing up to 15 different recipes to participants to use them as part of the diet. At the beginning of the study, after 6 weeks and at the end of the intervention, the following parameters are determined: anthropometric (weight, waist circumference, body mass index and body composition), blood pressure, dietary (72-hours dietary registry) and exercise assessments and biochemical analysis (total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein A1, apolipoprotein B, iron, transferrin, ferritin, uric acid, glucose, HbA1c, insulin and adipokines). In 3-months visit, participants will be advised to follow the prescribed diets during the next 3 months. Monitoring visits with the nutritionist will not be performed. A follow-up visit will be done after 3-months of end of intervention (at 6-months after beginning the study) to assess the long-time efficacy on main endpoint of each diet. In this visit only anthropometric parameters (weight, waist circumference, body mass index and body composition) will be determined.
