Filter by:This is a phase 2b, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Longeveron Mesenchymal Stem Cells (LMSCs) in subjects with metabolic syndrome and to assess the effects of LMSCs on endothelial function using several different doses.
This project investigated how glucose metabolism differs due to sleep deprivation for three consecutive nights as compared to sufficient sleep for three nights by examining concentrations of glucose, insulin, and other factors involved in glucose metabolism.
The aim of the research study will be assess the effectiveness of a long-term interdisciplinary lifestyle in many aspects including food intake, psychological symptoms, physical activity habits, energy expenditure, body composition and anthropometric measurements in adults obese.
Introduction This study evaluates the effect on glucose, lipid and bone metabolism following knee orthopedic procedures in healthy and physically active individuals. The sedentary rehabilitation period following these procedures may impact negatively on glucose, lipid and bone metabolic pathways, whereas the more physically active rehabilitation period instituted 6 weeks after surgery is hypothesized to impact positively. Perspective This study will establish whether the well-known effects on glucose, lipid and bone metabolism of a sedentary lifestyle can be observed already following 6 weeks of physical inactivity in otherwise healthy and physically fit young and middle aged individuals. Investigators will thereby add knowledge to previous findings following strict bed-rest in healthy individuals on glucose, lipid and bone metabolism. In a clinical perspective it is important to examine the extent to which healthy individuals deteriorate in various metabolic pathways to better understand the pathophysiology behind these defects both in healthy individuals and in patients, who undergo bed rest or an equal reduction in physical activity as part of their rehabilitation. Study design 16 physical active non-diabetic individuals of age 18 - 50 years who are undergoing knee surgical procedures at the Arthroscopic Center at Amager/Hvidovre Hospitals are recruited as cases for this case-control study. 10 non-diabetic control subjects matched for age, gender and physical activity are recruited to establish a reference level. - The individuals will bring in morning spot urine for measurement of soluble urokinase plasminogen activating receptor (suPAR), creatinine, albumin and orosomucoid. Weight and height and waist and hip circumference will be measured. - Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with ingestion of 75 g glucose during 5 min from baseline (0 min). Plasma for glucose, insulin, C-peptide, non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) will be drawn - Before OGTT blood will be drawn for measurement of HbA1c, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglyceride, Na, K, creatinine, hemoglobin (HgB), C-reactive protein (CRP), leukocytes, alanintransaminase (ALAT), alkaline phosphatase, Ca++, D vitamin, TSH, bone turnover markers (BTM), suPAR, interleukin 6 (IL6), TNFa, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), lipid density profiling and lipid particle size. - Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of hip, lumbar columna, visceral and subcutaneous fat is measured by Hologic Discovery scanner.
To determine the effects of ambient airpollution exposures on cardiovascular responses among healthy adults without cardiovascular disease.
The general objective is study medical, socioeconomic, behavioral, health environmental, school and professional integration, and short- and medium- term quality of life determinants for all patients under 18 years old, residing in France for which the diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases with specific regime (MHMRS) has been achieved during their childhood.
This study aimed at determining the 4-hours postprandial blood glucose and insulin responses to the ingestion of cereal product differing by their SDS content.
This study examines the effect of meal frequency and meal composition on risk factors of cardiometabolic disease.
In this trial, the investigators analyzed the effects of eight weeks of CLA supplementation associated with aerobic exercise on body fat and lipid profile in obese women.
This observation will look at patient care decisions of the primary healthcare provider utilizing the results of the DNA testing of patients' metabolic pathways using 2C19, 2C9, 2D6, 3A4, Factor II, Factor V and MTHFR and VKORC1. Findings of the data collection will be published to optimize the benefits of pharmacogenomics testing and publish health outcomes.
