Mechanisms of Fasting Induced Reduction in Energy Expenditure

FIRE
Start date: November 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Fasting reduces the energy consumption of the human body. The extent of this adaptation varies significantly between different individuals. The aim of this research project is to investigate how this adaptation of the metabolism is regulated by the body. For this purpose, we will first measure how the so-called basal metabolic rate of the body reacts to a short-term fasting of 24 h in a preliminary study. Those subjects with a particularly pronounced and those subjects with an only slightly pronounced reaction of the basal metabolic rate will be invited to the main study. Here, in random order (24 h fasting vs. 8 h fasting), the following is compared - how the basal metabolic rate of the body reacts to the reduced energy intake. - how the energy metabolism increases after a test meal - what role in particular the thyroid hormones play in this adaptation. In addition, a sample of the subcutaneous adipose tissue is taken in each case and it is examined how the regulation of metabolic processes at the cellular level.

NCT ID: NCT06043843 Recruiting - Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Focused Tele-education in Reducing Diabetes Complications During Ramadan

Start date: February 16, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction Diabetes is a global emergency with detrimental clinical and financial consequences. Poorly managed diabetes leads to a myriad of serious complications, especially cardiovascular and infectious complications, with consequent increased cost and mortality rate. For Muslims in particular, the annual fasting month of Ramadan is one such period when diabetes control is essential. Adequate adjustments in diabetes management need to be made in line with the allowed mealtimes to avoid the risk of diabetes complications during Ramadan. Objective Investigators aim to investigate the effectiveness of Ramadan-focused structured diabetes tele-education to reduce diabetes complications during Ramadan fasting for Muslims with diabetes in South East Asia. Methodology In a parallel group randomized controlled trial, investigators aim to recruit 300 adults with diabetes who are able to fast at least 15 days in Ramadan. You will be randomized to the intervention group comprising of a Ramadan-focused structured diabetes tele-education and control group receiving standard care. You will be reviewed again after Ramadan. The primary outcome is the incidence of hypoglycemia in Ramadan. The secondary outcomes are incidence of other diabetes complications in Ramadan episodes including hyperglycemia, episodes of acute infections, attendances in clinic and emergency department, hospital admissions, and compliance to recommendations for diabetes management during Ramadan. Clinical Significance The study enables investigators to evaluate Ramadan-focused structured diabetes tele-education to reduce the risk of diabetes complications for a large population during the fasting month.

NCT ID: NCT05765162 Recruiting - Pain Clinical Trials

Safe Brain Initiative, Operationalizing Precision Anaesthesia

SBI
Start date: December 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Perioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses and their institutions do not receive structured feedback regarding these aspects of each patient's well-being. They may therefore be unable to engage in the essential cause-and-effect learning necessary to evaluate and consecutively reduce such side effects. Effective guidelines conform prevention is the proven key to shielding our patients from adverse Outcomes. The Safe Brain Initiative's high-quality routine data-for-action is a sword and accelerator for moving towards patient-centred, precision care. Thus, establishing a foundation for value-based and patient-centred healthcare development. However, a turnkey real-world solution is challenging to develop and implement and requires substantial resources. As a result, such solutions are usually beyond the scope of a single institution. The SBI platform provides high-quality, real-world data to bridge this gap. It allows monitoring and in-depth analysis of cause and effect in the day-to-day routine of individuals, departments, and institutions. The SBI's approach is continuously improved and updated. An organization called the SBI Global Society oversees the quality and precision of science through experts in the field. At SBI Hospitals and Flagship centres, Masterclasses are conducted and can be attended alongside clinical immersions. SBI Solutions manages, develops, and provides technical and service support for the Safe Brain Initiative. Its service guarantees the professional and GDPR conform management of data handling and storage as well as the user-friendly functionality of the SBI-Dashboard solutions.

NCT ID: NCT05729100 Recruiting - Fasting Clinical Trials

The Effects of Carbohydrate-electrolyte Solution on Metabolic Responses in Paediatric Patients

Start date: January 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of oral administration of carbohydrate-electrolyte-containing fluid, compared to standard clear fluid during preoperative fasting on metabolic responses, preoperative anxiety and postoperative complications in paediatric patients. Subjects will be randomly allocated into 2 groups: the intervention group will receive carbohydrate- electrolyte fluid whilst the control group will receive clear fluid. Both groups will receive 50 ml/kg of their designated fluid one day prior to surgery, and are allowed to consume the fluid gradually until 1 hour before the induction of anaesthesia. Prior to induction, preoperative anxiety will be assessed. Metabolic responses will be assessed through the degree of insulin resistance (using the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance - HOMA-IR) and inflammatory cytokine (Interleukin-6) level. The metabolic responses will be evaluated after the induction of anaesthesia and 24 hours following the surgery. Preoperative anxiety will be assessed before the surgery using the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale Short Form (mYPAS-SF). Immediate post operative complications such as post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV), emergence delirium and postoperative pain will be assessed in the recovery room.

NCT ID: NCT05674643 Recruiting - Fasting Clinical Trials

Gastric Assessment of Pediatric Patients Undergoing Surgery

Start date: February 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this pilot prospective cohort study is to examine the reproducibility of gastric volume and emptying as measured by gastric ultrasound and its correlation to a gold-standard test for gastric emptying in the perioperative period in pediatric patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the reliability (inter-rater variability between expert and novice assessors, and intra-rater variability) of a) the gastric antral cross-sectional area (CSA) and b) gastric volume using the Perlas US qualitative grading assessment, measured by using an ultrasound device in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia for elective surgery? - What is the correlation between ultrasound assessment of gastric emptying by the antral-CSA and gastric emptying determined by the acetaminophen absorption test (AAT), the gold standard? The study will include two cohorts. Cohort assignment will be based on age and anesthesia induction plan. Subjects >7yrs of age and expected to get an IV induction will be assigned to Cohort #1. Subjects <7yrs of age and not expected to get an IV induction will be assigned to Cohort #2. - Cohort 1 will include abdominal ultrasound for gastric assessment AND the acetaminophen absorption test which includes administering enteral acetaminophen (tylenol) with 6 oz of water and drawing of blood samples through a peripheral intravenous line. - Cohort 2 will include subjects for whom a peripheral intravenous line placement is not part of routine pre-operative care. Procedures for Cohort 2 will include abdominal ultrasound only in the pre-op area (no tylenol). This cohort is included to examine the reliability of measurements across age groups.
