Filter by:The overall aim of the study is to monitor the effects of the increased iodine fortification level implemented in 2019 on iodine intake from the diet (incl. dietary supplements) and the excretion of iodine in urine in children aged 2-10 years.
The proposed pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will enroll 24 Black adults. The overall goal is to examine the preliminary efficacy of iSIPsmarter in a 2 group [iSIPsmarter vs. static Patient Education (PE) website] by 4 assessment (Pre, 3-, 6- and 18-month follow-up) design. The generated pilot data will allow us to better understand efficacy and engagement outcomes among Black participants. We anticipate trends that iSIPsmarter will be more efficacious at reducing SSB consumption than a PE website at post assessment.
Intact whole grains (such as quinoa, buckwheat, and barley) contain all 3 parts of the kernel (bran, germ, and endosperm) compared to processed grains where the bran and germ layers have been removed. Intact whole grains have a higher nutritional value but are under consumed in the diet of most adults. In this proposed pilot study, 42 participants will be recruited to study the impact of convenience on intake of intact whole grains by comparing consumption of intact whole grains that are offered in a convenient pre-cooked ready-to-eat form compared to traditional bulk dried form that requires a more prolonged preparation and cooking time. The ready-to-eat meals will be processed using WSU microwave technologies to ensure food safety. All intact whole grains (ready-to-eat or dried) will be provided to participants, who will prepare and consume the grains at home over a period of 4 weeks. Type and volume of whole grain consumed will be monitored daily via REDCap survey, which will allow the investigators to see if adults are more likely to meet daily recommended intakes of whole grain servings when offered in a convenient form.
The main risk factors for dental caries are inadequate oral hygiene practices, cariogenic bacteria, and cariogenic diet. Among these factors, diet has a different dual relationship with dental caries. Dietary habits have the potential to be a risk factor for dental caries impaired oral and dental health can also lead to deficiencies in dietary intake. Studies have shown that there is a decrease in gum and periodontal diseases in the adult age group with a diet compatible with the Mediterranean diet. This cross-sectional study aims to examine the relationship between a diet compatible with the Mediterranean Diet and dental caries and gum health status in children. We hypothesize that children will have better gum health and less tooth decay with a diet compatible with the Mediterranean diet.
SAFE-LCD study is a randomised controlled trial aiming to develop and evaluate a safe, cost-effective, easily accessible, digital Low-Calorie Diet (LCD) programme for insulin-treated adults with Type 2 diabetes (T2D), a world-first innovation. The study plans to enrol 72 participants who will be randomly allocated to either receive the intervention or will be provided with weight loss advice suitable for insulin-treated patients through accessing the NHS 12-week weight loss plan. The intervention arm will follow Oviva Diabetes Remission Insulin (ODR-I) programme which includes expert dietitian coaching, support of a Diabetes Nurse, the Oviva app (with a 12-month weight prediction chart), a Capilar Blood Glucose (CBG) meters (for enhanced safety in view of concerns re hypo- and hyper-glycaemia), and BodyTrace weight scales. If successful, this project will provide game-changing evidence for the support of insulin-treated T2D patients and for NHS commissioning of the digital Low-Calorie programme driving patient benefits and cost-savings.
The goal of this study is to compare the impact of a SMART ((specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, or timely) Goal setting protocol on body weight, metabolic parameters (Hemoglobin A1c, lipids), diet quality and physical activity frequency in obese children with prediabetes in the outpatient setting. The main question is if participants using the SMART Goal Setting Protocol (SGSP) will have a significant reduction. The participants randomized to the study group will receive the SGSP, consisting of the SMART Goal Selection Guide (SGSG) and Weekly Goal Monitoring Tool (WGMT), in BMI Z-score, A1c, and dyslipidemia in 6 months compared to controls.
To investigate the relationship between serum chemerin levels of individuals with colorectal cancer and systematic inflammatory response parameters such as C-reactive protein(CRP) and albumin, and to investigate the relationship of these biomarkers with dietary inflammatory index, phytochemical, anthropometric measurements, and dietary inflammatory index, which is calculated with the data obtained from the 24-hour food consumption record and food consumption frequency questionnaire. The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between the index and dietary antioxidant capacity and to compare them with those of healthy individuals.
The goal of this study is to learn about the relationship between blood sugar, diet, stress, and metabolic parameters including waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), cholesterol levels and blood pressure in patients at risk for diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are 1) are there trends in blood sugar responses after meals for patients at risk of developing diabetes? And 2) are there correlations between stress and fluctuations in blood sugar? During the first visit, participant's waist circumference, body composition, cholesterol, and resting blood pressure will be measured, and a continuous glucose monitor sensor will be placed on the participant's non-dominant arm. This sensor will be worn for seven days, and the participant will be asked to complete a daily food log during that time. Each participant will be asked to return to clinic after one week to return the continuous glucose monitor and daily food log.
American football is a high-contact sport, also known as a collision sport. American football players are exposed to various magnitudes and frequencies of head impacts throughout the season. Accordingly, during the American football season, there is an increase in biomarkers that may be associated with brain damage and the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases later in life. In addition, oxidative stress and inflammation can also increase in athletes during the American football season. This study was planned with the thought that the MIND diet, which is beneficial for brain health with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, may have positive effects on oxidative stress, inflammation and neurodegenerative risk biomarkers in American football players. The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of the MIND diet on oxidative stress, inflammation and neurodegenerative risk biomarkers in American football players. The main question it aims to answer are: • [Question] Does the MIND diet lowers or reduce the levels of oxidative stress, inflammation and neurodegenerative risk biomarkers in American football players? Participants will be randomized into 2 groups MIND diet and control group. The current diet of the players in the control group will not be interfered with during the competition period, but the current nutrition of the players in the MIND diet group will be adapted to the MIND diet according to the food groups in the MIND diet components and their consumption frequencies. The players in the MIND diet group will be asked to include the food groups in the MIND diet in their diet in accordance with their consumption frequency. Researchers will compare the MIND diet and control groups to see if the MIND diet improves oxidative stress, inflammation and neurodegenerative risk biomarkers.
investigators plan to observe the changes of biochemical indicators, body composition, gut microbiota, metabolomics in patients at different periods through balanced diet and Low-carbohydrate diet, so as to determine the beneficial "intestinal functional group" of MAFLD, and provide basis for the selection of the best time for probiotics and fecal bacteria transplantation.By comparing the response of the main outcome indicators to the two dietary structures, personalized nutritional intervention measures can be achieved.
