Filter by:Numeta G13% is a triple chamber bag including amino acids plus electrolytes, glucose and lipids, dedicated for parenteral nutrition in preterm newborn infants when oral/enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient or contra indicated. The product has been registered in 18 countries in Europe via a decentralized procedure that ended 15th December 2010. The present study want to evaluate the use of Numeta 13% as standard medical prescription in the NICU of the university of Liege. It is a prospective, monocentric, non-interventional, non comparative, open-labeled data collection of record keeping, nutritional intakes from the bags, additional intakes as well as blood and urine biochemical markers currently evaluated in the NICU. The data will be collected only in VLBWI < 1500 g receiving Numeta G13% from day of birth (day 1) until parenteral nutrition (PN) decreases below 20% of the targeted intakes 2 days in a row as a quality control of the new solution in clinical practice. Indication for PN and daily prescription will follow the protocol in use in the NICU on behalf of the investigators
The advent of highly active antiretroviral treatment has resulted in the survival into adolescence of an increasing proportion of infants and children with perinatal HIV infection in Senegal. However, the transformation of HIV into a chronic disease needing lifelong antiretroviral treatment (ART) raises new challenges, among others related to a disturbance of glucose metabolism, lipid abnormalities, in addition to the potential effects on children's growth and puberty. Little is known on nutritional and metabolic changes in HIV-infected children on ART in Africa, while implementation of the latest WHO recommendations should eventually lead to an increase in the number of children on ART in this region. Moreover, bio-clinical evolution of untreated children is poorly documented in the African context. It therefore urgently needed to institute a cohort study to evaluate, in the long term, the impact of HIV infection and/or ART on nutritional and metabolic disorders and to characterize the risk factors of their occurrence in children and adolescents infected as they move through adolescent into adulthood.
To determine the effects of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet on the metabolic side effects of corticosteroids medications use.
This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of multiple oral 200-mg doses of Pf-05175157 administered twice daily for 14 days in healthy overweight and obese subjects.
The purpose of this study is to collect data to help understand why some women develop Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) associated with decreased lower-body fat.
Osteoarthritis patients undergoing primary hip and knee replacement are followed-up and changes in their glucose metabolism and other metabolic parameters (obesity, cholesterol levels) are examined. Persistent postoperative pain is examined as secondary outcome.
The study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidimensional worksite intervention program to reduce the severity of metabolic disorders in older workers in Taiwan.
Aging is a major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Approximately 50% of subjects aged ≥65 have diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance, a pre-diabetic state. Purpose: In the proposed study, the investigators will test the hypotheses that the decrease in fat oxidation that occurs in muscle from older human subjects is secondary to an age-mediated reduction in AMPK signaling, in vivo, and that upregulating AMPK signaling through exercise training will result in (and correlate with) increased fat oxidation, reduced intramyocellular lipids, and improved insulin action.
Objective: To identify how specific changes of the whole grain content in the diet affect the host-gut microbiome interactions with implications for metabolic health . Design: A randomized, controlled, single-blinded, cross-over intervention trial consisting of two 8-week intervention periods, separated by a 6-week wash-out period. A total of 60 participants will be included. Intervention: low vs. high whole grain intake.
1. The primary objective is to determine the effect of fruit polyphenols on postprandial lipoprotein triglyceride metabolism after consumption a standard high carbohydrate/fat breakfast meal with a beverage rich in fruit-derived polyphenols compared to energy and macro-/micro-nutrient matched control beverage (acute, Part 1). 2. Secondary objectives are: 1)to assess the effects of consuming daily for 8 weeks (chronic, Part 2) a beverage rich in fruit polyphenols compared to an energy and macro-/micro- nutrient matched control beverage on fasting glucose, insulin, lipids and markers of oxidative stress; and 2) to assess the effects of these beverages on meal-related changes in metabolic and oxidative stress measures after 8 weeks daily consumption.
