Filter by:This research aims to determine if melatonin supplementation, through improvements in sleep quality, increases the ability to repair oxidative DNA damage and reduce lipid peroxidation levels among nightshift workers.
This is an interventional randomized, controlled trial in analyzing the effects of astaxanthin supplementation on plasma malondialdehyde levels and NIHSS of acute ischemic stroke patients. According to published studies, it was hypothesized that acute ischemic stroke patients who were given astaxanthin would have lower plasma malondialdehyde levels and lower NIHSS score compared to the control group.
The goal of this study is to perform a randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of vitamin C versus placebo on wound healing in mandibular fracture patients.
Treatments are an administration of a mixed extract of Garcinia mangostana 400mg and Solanum Lycopersicum Fructus 200mg (OKSI(R) POM TR 193324351) and placebo control.
It is proposed to establish a group of subjects composed of 10 healthy individuals of> 50 years and <65, physically active, without metabolic or inflammatory pathology. All of them will undergo a health examination and the physical condition and the absence of contraindication of the sports practice will be characterized through a monitored effort test. Each subject will take a capsule of coenzyme Q10® INDENA for 30 days. The dose to be administered is 100 mg/d of CoQ10 a with food (noon). The state of physical condition and the biochemical and biological variables that reflect oxidative stress and mitochondrial functioning before and after the intervention will be measured.
This study evaluates a high intake of milk compared with a high intake of soured milk (Swedish filmjölk) on markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in a randomized crossover intervention study.
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation has a pivotal role in atherosclerosis development. There is a relationship between carotenoids serum concentration and cardiovascular (CV) benefits, mainly in oxidized LDL (oxLDL) reduction. Despite cardio protective effects of annatto carotenoids, bixin and norbixin, in vitro and in animal studies, its short or long-term supplementation effect on humans are not know. Objective: To analyse CV benefits of annatto carotenoids short-term supplementation in healthy individuals, comparing to lycopene effect. Methods: 16 healthy volunteers (8 men and 8 women) consumed 0.05 mg/kg b.w. of each treatment (bixin, norbixin, lycopene or placebo) through capsules, during 7 days. It was analysed the susceptibility of LDL to Cu2+-induced oxidation, biochemical parameters and oxidative stress biomarkers at the beginning and end of each treatment.
With the development of technology, the safety of anesthesia devices and the progression of monitoring techniques affect the anesthetic management. There are some disadvantages such as high cost of inhalation anesthetics and long postoperative recovery time. The effects of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA), which has been used for many years and whose positive aspects are well known, on antioxidant system in high risk patients such as morbid obese should be investigated. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of desflurane anesthesia and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) on the antioxidant system in morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
World Health Organization report notifies of the escalating global burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), projecting that it will become the major worldwide cause of death and disability by 2020. The South Asian countries have the highest rates of CVD globally. It is widely acknowledged that South Asians have 40-60% higher risk of CVD linked to mortality, compared with other populations. Multiple human population studies have established the concentration of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol as an independent, inverse predictor of the risk of having a cardiovascular event. Furthermore, HDLs have several well-documented functions with the potential to protect against cardiovascular disease. This study trial is designed to find out the role of alternative medicine such as functional food to improve the dyslipidemia and particularly increase the levels of HDL in general population. We expect that the use of Ajwa dates will significantly enhance the level of HDL and reduce cardiovascular events in general population.
