Filter by:This multicenter, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of berberine on preventing cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus among individuals with high cardiometabolic risk in China.
The study aims to investigate the effects of oral inositols on insulin-resistance and metabolic variables (triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol) in children aged 8-12 years with obesity and insulin-resistance.
JS002 is a recombinant humanized anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibody. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK/PD profile, immunogenicity as well as complete delivery of auto-injector by patients of JS002 as monotherapy in patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia and mixed dyslipidemia. In this study, two dose cohorts(150 mg, 450 mg) are set up, and 582 subjects are planned to be enrolled (randomizedly assigned to JS002 or placebo 150/450 mg group in a 2:1:2:1 ratio).A screening period (≤6 weeks), a double-blind treatment period (12 weeks), an open-label treatment period (40 weeks), and a follow-up period (8 weeks) will be required.
Patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) have an increased risk of recurrent ischemic events, particularly during the first year following the index event, which is mainly due to unattended risk factors and/ or poor compliance with medications. Lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), with a magnitude of clinical benefit that is proportional to the reduction in LDL-C levels. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 (PCSK9) antibodies have emerged as a new class of drugs that rapidly and effectively lower LDL-C levels up to 77 % of the original value in combination with statins. The primary objective of this study is to confirm the safety and the long-term clinical benefit associated with the use of PCSK9i when combined with statin in patients with ACS-STEMI. The study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, open label study that will be the first study looking for the safety and the clinical benefit and outcome associated with the use of PCSK9i in ACS-STEMI patients specifically. Internationally, this will be the first trial studying the effect of PCSK9i on patients with acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) in terms of reduction in cholesterol level and reduction in cardiac events rate (re-infarction and cardiac death) after myocardial infarction. This trial will have a significant impact in the management of patients with STEMI, locally and internationally and it will be conducted purely in Qatar. This trial will help to improve the clinical outcome of patients in Qatar in terms of reduction of myocardial reinfarction rate and mortality.
This single-centre cross-sectional study aims to ascertain the impact of dyslipidemia on long-term graft patency after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
The problem of adherence to long-term therapies has been known for years and occurs substantially in all countries, although with greater severity in developing countries. The investigators designed a prospective open study in which 200 patients followed for hypertension at the centers of the Italian Society of Hypertension (SIIA) adhering to the project will be evaluated on the basis of their clinical characteristics, the presence of comorbidities and the therapeutic scheme in place and will be subjected to hair sampling for the analysis of drugs of interest and their possible metabolites in this matrix. The use of the prescribed drugs is recorded along with the relevant clinical parameters and preliminarily evaluated by application of a questionnaire. At the first visit, patients who have been prescribed continuously in the 3 months preceding the study the same active ingredients will be invited to participate in the study, which involves a hair sampling. They will then be prescribed the same active ingredients according to the same scheme if the blood pressure values are within the recommended limits. When more than one antihypertensive drug is present in the therapeutic scheme, they will be prescribed in a single pill, as recommended. For patients with uncontrolled blood pressure, the therapeutic scheme will be modified with the inclusion of other active ingredients and using drug combinations when possible. Patients treated with statins will continue the treatment according to clinical indication using associations with antihypertensive drugs. Patients will be examined and re-tested 3-4 months after the first visit. The use of prescribed medications will be recorded along with clinical parameters of interest and preliminarily evaluated by application of questionnaires. At each of the two visits, the investigating physician will measure blood pressure using a semi-automatic device The 24-hour blood pressure monitoring will be used. Hair extraction ad UHPLC-QQQ/MS analysis will be performed. Concentrations of active ingredient and any metabolites in the keratin matrix are expressed in ng or fractions of ng/mg.
The goal of this pilot study is to understand the combined effects of fish oil and exercise in obesity-associated inflammation acutely. We hypothesize that fish oil will improve gut bacteria profiles, which will in turn potentiate the benefits of an exercise program and reduce inflammation and metabolic risk.

Dyslipidemia is very common in type 2 diabetes mellitus affecting around 72%-85% of diabetic patients.The exact mechanism of lipoprotein abnormalities in diabetes is not very well understood. Insulin resistance, rather than hyperglycemia, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic dyslipidemia because lipoprotein changes including an increase in triglycerides (TG), increase in VLDL particles, small dense LDL particles and a decrease in HDL level have been shown in patients with impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance and T2DM
The investigators aim to study the effects of a 24-week remote-based resistance exercise training program on cardiovascular disease risk factors, cognitive function, and quality of life in older adults living with mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's Disease and/or a related dementia. Data for this study will be collected at the beginning, middle, and end of the resistance training program. Participants of this study will receive a baseline health-fitness assessment at the beginning of the study. Measurements of resting blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and lipids, waist and hip circumferences, height and weight, cognitive function and quality of life will be collected at the health-fitness assessment. Participants will then receive supervised remote-based resistance exercise training with Therabands, 3 days per week for 12 weeks before receiving a second 12-week health-fitness assessment in the middle of the intervention. Participants will then receive 12 additional weeks of supervised remote-based resistance exercise training with Therabands, 3 days per week for 12 weeks before receiving a third 24-week health fitness assessment at the end of the study.
