Filter by:1. To develop a multiactivity training programme. 2. To explore the effect of this programme on sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, cognitive impairment and Parkinson's disease. 3. To compare the effects of the experimental and control treatments on the muscle strength, body composition, physical function performance and quality of life of the elderly.
Recently, numerous signaling proteins derived from adipose tissue and/or skeletal muscle have been described and are involved in the pathogenesis of obesity and the pathophysiology of aging. Current evidence suggests a role for the FGF-Klotho system, circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA), miR-499, and exosomes not only in the pathophysiology of obesity, but also in the association with sarcopenic obesity (OS) and in a accelerated aging. The investigator´s hypothesis is that obesity, especially OS, might be the cause of advanced aging, reflected in lower levels of the FGF-Klotho system, higher concentrations of cfDNA and a change in the profiles of miRNAs and exosomes, which could have an impact on risk. cardiovascular and metabolic. For this, a descriptive cross-sectional study is proposed in 50 patients with obesity, who will be classified as OS or not, and 25 healthy controls, between 50-60 years old. The determinations are made by the IBIOMED of the University of León. To study the evolution of aging markers over a year of follow-up, a second part of the study will analyze the possible differences according to the treatments assigned to each patient in the context of real life (lifestyle changes, drugs, bariatric surgery).
Cardiovascular disease is responsible for a quarter of all deaths in the UK and risk seems to be higher in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) with lower body weight which may be due to sarcopenci obesity (SO) or low muscle mass with high fat mass. The investigators aim to investigate the effect of a high protein Mediterranean diet and resistance exercise on improving lean mass and reducing risk markers of cardiovascular disease
Obesity sarcopenia, characterized by the coexistence of excess fat and muscle mass reduction, may contribute to the pathophysiology of exercise intolerance in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The project will examine the impact of selected circulating miRNAs on processes that may form the pathophysiological basis for HFpEF development and obesity sarcopenia in correlation with biochemical markers, echocardiographic assessment and non-invasive assessment of hemodynamic parameters. In addition, the impact of LDL and HDL on these diseases will be assessed. Determinations of selected adipokines and asymmetric dimethylarginine will also be carried out and their effects on the cardiovascular system will be assessed.
Muscle is lost as part of the rectal cancer disease process. Surgery to treat rectal cancer and its subsequent immobility leads to increased muscle loss. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has been shown in previous studies in the critically ill to maintain muscle mass. The investigators aim to examine whether NMES use in the pre and postoperative setting preserves muscle mass, speeds up recovery and improves outcomes in advanced rectal cancer patients undergoing curative surgery. This is a phase II double blind randomised controlled clinical trial.
This study evaluates the addition of a high-protein energy-restricted diet to exercise in the treatment of sarcopenic obesity in people aged 65 and over. Half of participants will follow a hypocaloric (500 kcal deficit) high-protein (1.2 -1.5 g Protein/ kg bodyweight) diet alongside an exercise regime, while the other half will follow the same exercise regime alongside their habitual diet . All participants will consume a Vitamin D3 tablet (25micrograms) 3 times a week to achieve a weekly intake of 75 micrograms. Total duration of the intervention will be 16 weeks.
