Filter by:Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are reaching epidemic proportions in the developed world. In morbidly obese patients only surgical treatment (bariatric operations) leads to a sustained weight loss and relief of co-morbidities in the majority of patients. One of the most frequently performed operations is the laparoscopic proximal Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). There is still lack of knowledge why some patients respond much better than others to an identically performed procedure. Therefore, a number of variations of this operation have been introduced over the past 50 years. Increasing the length of small bowel being bypassed has the potential to improve the effect of the operation but buries the risk of nutrient deficiencies. The metabolic effect of LRYGB occurs, in part, independently of weight loss. The mechanisms underlying metabolic improvement through metabolic surgery are not yet fully understood.
The aims of the study are: 1. To investigate if carriers of apolipoprotein (apo) CIII loss-of-function (LOF) mutations produce less apo-CIII that results in reduction of large very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particle secretion as compared to non-carriers of these variants and compare the results with carriers of apo-CIII gain-of-function (GOF) to elucidate the role of apo-CIII in hepatic lipid metabolism. 2. To study if carriers of the TM6SF2 E167K and PNLPLA3 I148M mutations produce less large VLDL particles to transport fat out of the liver as compared to non-carriers. 3. To test whether the specific mutations in the apo-CIII, TM6SF2 and PNLPLA3 genes are reflected in changes of liver de novo lipogenesis (DNL), liver fat, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), plasma lipid and apolipoprotein kinetics and fasting concentrations in carriers of the TM6SF2 E167K and PNLPLA3 I148M mutations as compared to non-carriers. 4. To study the effects of APOE, angiopoietin (ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL8) or endothelial lipase (LIPG) genotypes on liver fat metabolism, lipid and apolipoprotein metabolism and lipid phenotypes.
The daily change in population routine has stimulated the development of health beneficial value added products. Lentinula edodes (Shiitake) is a mushroom with high protein concentration, low lipid content, rich in fiber, minerals, vitamins, antioxidant compounds, β-glucans and chitosan. This is clinical study phase II, randomized, double-blind for analyze in the effect of eating Shiitake bars on cholesterolemia and oxidative stress levels in individuals with borderline cholesterol. Individuals with at least one of the following biochemical markers (total cholesterol, LDL or triglycerides) at the borderline level were recruited through online questionnaire. Individuals (n = 68) were randomly allocated to two groups (Group I - Shiitake free bar (n = 32); Group II - Shiitake bar (n = 36). Each individual underwent blood collection at 0, 33 and 66 days, and received an unidentified opaque bag containing the bars.Biochemical analyzes (triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and glucose) and oxidative stress markers (Catalase, GSH and TBARS) were performed on samples of individuals.
This study is designated to evaluate the pharmacokinetic interactions of valsartan, amlodipine besylate, rosuvastatin, and ezetimibe in healthy male volunteers.
Aerobic training is essential for maintaining and improving physical performance and has a positive effect on physiological functions as well as anthropometric characteristics. It also has positive effect on cardiovascular health and carries a number of beneficial effects on the whole body functions and systems. Aerobic training can also decrease the risk of heart disease in the individual's life.The Moringa leaves are the rich source of minerals, vitamins and other essential phytochemicals. Moringa leave have found to be very effective in many disease particularly diabetic, blood pressure, dyslipidemia and cancer.
The aim of this study will be to evaluate the use of the nutraceutical with cardio-metabolic actions in clinical practice in addition to a Mediterranean diet scheme, normally recommended in the clinic. In particular the study will analyze how much the nutraceutical is prescribed and what are the purposes for which it is used and at what dosages.
- the change of sitSBP based on baseline between Treatment arm and control 1 arm [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] - the change of LDL-C based on baseline between Treatment arm and control2 arm [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ]
This is a Phase I study to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of AZD8233, following subcutaneous (SC) administration of multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AZD8233 in subjects with confirmed dyslipidemia with or without type 2 diabetes.
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the possible benefits on saciety and dyslipidemia in subjects with overweight/obesity (BMI ≥25 y <40 kg / m2) and dyslipemia after consumption of a modifed honey with soluble fiber and polyphenols. Some studies have shown the contribution of high-fiber foods in the reduction of the cardiovascular risk. Besides, polyphenols have reported with their potent antioxidant effect and their implication lowering the vardiovascular risk.
The primary aim of the present study was to elucidate the effect of a combination of functional foods on the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and on the distribution of the lipoprotein subclasses in subjects with hypercholesterolemia. To accomplish the latter, subjects that met the inclusion criteria and had mild hypercholesterolemia (Total cholesterol >200mg/dL, and LDL-C >130mg/dL <190 mg/dL) were recruited for double-blind, parallel, controlled dietary intervention study. After two weeks of dietary standardization with an isocaloric diet, subjects were randomized and allocated to either placebo or a dietary portfolio treatment for two months. The secondary endpoints were the size of the different lipoprotein subclasses, total cholesterol levels, high density -lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels, apolipoprotein B, triglycerides, total/HDL-C ratio, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A ratio, and anthropometric measurements.
