Filter by:Sarcopenia is a progressive condition characterized by decline in muscle strength and muscle mass. Although the mechanism of sarcopenia has not been fully elucidated, it may be caused by protein-poor diet, vitamin D deficiency, hormonal changes, increase in inflammatory cytokine level and oxidative stress. For this reason, it is thought that determining the prevalence of sarcopenia in rheumatological diseases with chronic inflammation and protecting patients from possible comorbidities with appropriate interventions may be an important factor in maintaining and improving the functional levels and quality of life of patients. The aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence and its associated factors of sarcopenia in individuals with primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
It is well known that the frequency of cardiometabolic diseases are increased in patients with Klinefelter Syndrome. The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is a simple surrogate marker of insulin resistance and is also associated with various cardiometabolic diseases. The aim of this study to investigate the TyG index levels and its relationship with insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction in patients with KS.
Use the Intermountain real-world MAb-treatment registry and control group to prospectively evaluate PACS symptoms at least 120 days after initial COVID-19 diagnosis.
The proposed placebo-controlled pilot study will examine hydrogen water as a treatment for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). 25 subjects who meet strict criteria for ME/CFS will be recruited. The 30 day trial will involve subjects ingesting 1-5 8 oz. glasses of hydrogen-dissolved water per day. The placebo condition will involve the same daily ingestion schedule but with an inert placebo pill instead of the active hydrogen treatment pill. The proposed study is intended to establish feasibility of the clinical protocol and examine potential treatment effects of hydrogen water which may include symptom reduction and possibly improved functioning. If feasibility and apparent treatment effects are confirmed, a large clinical trial will be proposed for submission to NIH. In addition to potential therapeutic properties, H2 water is portable, easily administered and safe to ingest. Self-report assessments for ME/CFS symptoms, fatigue, autonomic symptoms, physical function, anxiety, and depression will be done in the week before and the week after the 30 day trial. In addition, 7-day home-based objective assessments of heart rate variability (a measure of parasympathetic function) and accelerometry (a physical activity assessment) will be scheduled before and after the intervention period.
According to current IBS management guidelines, probiotic administration reduces IBS-associated symptoms and improves the quality of life. The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of the combined formulation comprising microencapsulated sodium butyrate and a probiotic mixture of two Lactobacillus strains (L. rhamnosus and L. acidophilus) and three Bifidobacterium strains (B. longum, B. bifidum, and B. lactis) on the incidence and severity of clinical symptoms in patients diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) based on the Rome IV criteria. Microencapsulated sodium butyrate is a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) with biological effects on the gastrointestinal mucosa; it constitutes a key source of energy for enterocytes. Butyrate was shown to have a trophic effect on the colon epithelium and to help restore the disrupted structural and functional integrity of the gastrointestinal tract. These unique properties of sodium butyrate result in its beneficial effects on the abdominal symptoms (such as diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain) in patients with IBS. This study will assess the effects of the mixture of sodium butyrate and multi-strain probiotic on the rate and severity of clinical symptoms in IBS patients, by taking into account their nutritional status and body composition.
Using a tele-research approach, we will recruit, enroll, guide and support carers and participants to engage in computer based activities (modified virtual reality) with the primary outcome of reducing stereotypies and increasing independent arm and hand use and secondary outcome of improving quality of living. Because of our virtual approach, we are able to recruit from multiple countries and all states and territories of the USA.
Background: Bone marrow failure diseases are rare. Much is known about the diseases at the time of diagnosis, but long-term data about the effects of the diseases and treatments are lacking. Researchers want to better understand long-term outcomes in people with these diseases. Objective: To follow people diagnosed with acquired or inherited bone marrow failure disease and study the long-term effects of the disease and its treatments on organ function. Eligibility: People aged 2 years and older who have been diagnosed with acquired or inherited bone marrow failure or Telomere Biology Disorder. First degree family members may also be able to take part in the study. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. They may have a bone marrow biopsy and aspiration. For this, a large needle will be inserted in the hip through a small cut. Marrow will be drawn from the bone. A small piece of bone may be removed. Participants may also be screened with some of the following: Cheek swab or hair follicle sample Skin biopsy Urine or saliva sample Evaluation by disease specialists (e.g., lung, liver, heart) Imaging scan of the chest Liver ultrasounds Six-Minute Walk Test Lung function test Participants will be put into groups based on their disease. They will have visits every 1 to 3 years. At visits, they may repeat some screening tests. They may fill out yearly surveys about their medicines, transfusions, pregnancy, bleeding, and so on. They may have other specialized procedures, such as imaging scans and ultrasounds. Participation will last for up to 20 years.
A study of the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NNZ-2591 and measures of efficacy in children and adolescents with Angelman syndrome
To translate and validate modifies polycystic ovary syndrome quality of life (MPCOQ) questionnaire into Urdu. To evaluate the reliability, validity and of Urdu version of modified polycystic ovary syndrome quality of life questionnaire (MPCOQ).
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose of gilteritinib given together with ASTX727 and venetoclax and the effect of ASTX727, venetoclax, and gilteritinib in treating patients with FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia that is newly diagnosed, has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Chemotherapy drugs, such as ASTX727, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Gilteritinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving ASTX727, venetoclax, and gilteritinib may help to control the disease.
