Filter by:Obesity is a widespread disease that basically develops from unhealthy lifestyle and genetics. The Fat-mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene affects appetite and energy intake of the body, thus elevating fat mass and body weight. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9939609 of the FTO gene is a common variant in different ethnic groups, and its A allele is associated with increased body mass and waist circumference. Hence, the carriers of rs9939609 SNP are prone to weight gain if a healthy diet and lifestyle are not maintained. Similarly, high levels of serum cholesterol and triglycerides, while low levels of high-density lipoproteins are observed in carriers of rs9939609 AA genotype. For individuals having FTO rs9939609 A allele, consumption of hypocaloric diets (1500 kcal/day) consisting of high protein foods up to 25-30% of total daily energy intake might help reduce body weight. However, weight loss tends to vary in individuals after consuming the same diet under similar environmental conditions, so it is important to know the effect of different genotypes that might cause this variation. The study aimed to genotype overweight and obese adults for FTO rs9939609 polymorphism and to determine the effect of this polymorphism on body weight, BMI, waist and hip circumferences, lipid profile, insulin sensitivity, ghrelin levels, inflammatory markers and advanced glycation end-products in these individuals after consumption of a hypocaloric, high-protein diet for 4 weeks.
Childhood obesity is a global public health issue, with rising prevalence rates. In Spain, the problem is significant, particularly in the southern regions. Factors contributing to childhood obesity include dietary habits, lack of physical activity, and socioeconomic influences. Efforts to address childhood obesity in Spain include various programs focusing on dietary modification, increased physical activity, and family involvement. Despite these initiatives, there is a need for continued intervention, as changing dietary and lifestyle patterns have led to reduced fruit and vegetable consumption and increased sedentary behavior among children. Childhood obesity has concerning health implications, including heart-related issues. Echocardiography plays a vital role in early detection. Given the limited research on the impact of childhood obesity on musculoskeletal development and mobility, a comprehensive study is needed to analyze its prevalence and associated factors. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of nutritional interventions administered by school nurses. In summary, childhood obesity in Spain is a growing concern, with multifaceted causes and health implications. Ongoing efforts are required to combat this issue and promote healthier lifestyles among children.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the association Berberina Fitosoma® and monacolin K MonaKoPure® (Berberol® K supplement) compared to placebo on glucidic and lipid parameters in subjects with fasting blood glucose (FPG) values between 100 and 125 mg/dl and with total cholesterol (TC) values ≥ 200 mg/dl.
To evaluate the effects of a nutraceutical containing Berberine-based Food Supplement, Artichoke Extract, Phytosterols, Fenugreek and SelectSIEVE® OptiChol on lipid profile
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fixed-Dose combination of Pitavastatin/Ezetimibe under the real-world condition
This single-center, 400-patient, randomized controlled trial assesses the impact of a patient- and provider-facing EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA; alert-based computerized decision support tool) to increase guideline-directed utilization of statin and statin-alternative oral LDL-C lowering therapies in patients with PAD who are not being prescribed LDL-C-lowering therapy.
The purpose of the current study is to examine the effects of a dietary supplement containing plant derived phenolics at two different dose levels in otherwise generally healthy adults with risk factors (high BMI at dyslipidemia and/or pre-diabetes) for body fat composition. The primary hypothesis is that supplementation with plant derived phenolics will decrease body fat composition compared to placebo.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the improvement of lipid levels in hypothyroid individuals after staring treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: • whether adding Vitamin D to standard therapy has any additional benefits Participants will be given Vitamin D in replacement doses according to their pre-existing Vitamin D level in addition to levothyroxine. Researchers will compare them with another group receiving only levothyroxine to see how much lipids improve in them
This study seeks to improve access to lipid testing in out-of-surgery locations using PocDoc, a UKCA approved IVD device that measures a full 5 marker lipid panel using a smartphone or tablet. The study will investigate whether PocDoc can close the gap in people not tested by exploring 3 new out-of-surgery methods: 1. Lipid testing conducted in pharmacy or at-home for high-risk individuals on existing CVD register who have not attended in-surgery appointments 2. Footfall lipid testing conducted in pharmacy for individuals visiting or passing by pharmacies 3. Corporate wellness lipid testing performed by employers for employees as part of an organised corporate wellness check
Eating healthy foods can help people manage health problems, like Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Many people want to eat healthier, but changing eating behaviors is hard. Patients don't always know what foods to eat for their health problems and are hesitant to try foods that may be unfamiliar. These challenges are made more difficult when families have lower incomes, which makes accessing healthy foods difficult and trying new foods riskier when on a budget. Food is Medicine programs connect people to healthy foods that help them manage health problems. One example is a medically tailored grocery program. This program provides a patient with free groceries selected to help their medical condition. For example, a patient receives fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-salt, low-sugar foods if they have high blood pressure. Food resource coaching is another strategy for eating healthy food. This approach provides a coach that supports learning healthy eating habits when facing financial challenges by using available food resources. Among other strategies, a coach may teach the participant how to meal plan and shop at nearby stores to increase healthy and delicious eating patterns. In our study, the investigators will ask lower-income patients with at least one chronic health problem at a safety-net clinic if they want to participate in a Food is Medicine program. Patients that want to participate will be randomly placed in one of two groups. One group will get medically tailored groceries and food resource coaching from a free food market for four months. The other group will get free food from the same market for four months, but food will not be medically tailored, and they will not meet with a coach. Participants will have the option to continue getting food from the market at the end of the study if they want to. This study will help us learn what patients think about Food is Medicine programs and how to best carry out these programs in the future. The study will also help us determine if providing medically tailored groceries and food resource coaching helps patients improve their diet. The investigators will use what is learned in this study to create a larger and longer program that can be provided in safety-net clinics throughout Dallas-Fort Worth. Our main goal is to build a sustainable and helpful program for patients that may not otherwise have access to healthy foods and eating habits that set the foundation for better health.
