Filter by:This project aims to address the impact of frailty on older adults, particularly its connection to cognitive impairments such as dementia. By identifying frailty in its early stages, interventions can be designed to slow down the progression of cognitive decline. To achieve this, the project plans to develop a reliable at-home monitoring system that can accurately track frailty in older adults with mild cognitive impairment or dementia. By utilizing cutting-edge technologies such as high-precision indoor positioning and home-installed sensors, referred to as zero-effort technologies (ZETs), the system will collect continuous sensor data, which will be analyzed to identify indicators of frailty.
The study is conducted in two parts (Part A and B). The main purpose of this study is to look at the amount of the LY3437943 that gets into the blood stream and how long it takes the body to get rid of it when given subcutaneously (SC, under the skin) in the upper arm and thigh compared to the abdomen in healthy participants with high body mass index (BMI) in Part A. In Part B, the participants receive LY3437943 intravenously (IV, through a vein) where the safety and tolerability of LY3437943 are evaluated and information about any side effects experienced will be collected. For each participant, the total duration of the study will be approximately up to 157 days and 99 days for Part A and Part B, respectively.
Mannooligosaccharides (MOS) derived from baker's yeast may have prebiotic properties such as improving gastrointestinal function. The aims of this study are to determine the effect of MOS on gastrointestinal function and symptoms and fecal microbiota in older adults.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate whether fasting timing has a significant effect on postprandial glycemic responses in healthy adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether fasting timing has a significant effect on postprandial insulin actions and plasma glucose concentration. 2. Whether fasting timing could modulate the glycemic metabolome and circadian rhythms in healthy individuals. Participants will get the two interventions: No-dinner: breakfast at 7.30 a.m., lunch at 1.00 p.m. and no dinner; No-breakfast: no breakfast, lunch at 1.00 p.m. and dinner at 8.00 p.m.
The primary purpose of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a bivalent respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)/human metapneumovirus (hMPV) virus-like particle (VLP) candidate vaccine (IVX-A12) compared to placebo, when administered as a single-dose regimen in healthy older adults 60 to 85 years of age.
The goal of this pilot study is to examine how to design a large-scale randomized control trial examining yoga as a way to improve positive body image in men and women across the lifespan. The main questions it will answer are: - Is the study acceptable to participants? - Is recruitment, adherence, and retention adequate? - Are study procedures appropriate? - What is the preliminary effect of yoga on embodiment (sense of connection with the body), self-objectification (evaluating oneself based on outer appearance rather than internal functions) and body appreciation? Participants will either take part in a 10-week yoga program or a control condition (where they will be asked to not change their lifestyle). They will complete online questionnaires at the start, middle and end of the 10-weeks.
Plant-based milk alternatives (PBMAs) are a popular alternative to cow's milk. The different types of PBMAs on the market shelf include almond, oat, soy, coconut, cashew, pea, hemp, and rice. Among these, PBMA made from almonds, oats and soy are the most popular in North America. Though PBMAs are designed to mimic cow's milk in terms of color, they often have a very different nutrition profile. In order to better substitute for cow's milk, PBMAs often have added vitamins and minerals, as well as added sugars and flavorings to improve flavor. This study will test how well certain nutrients (vitamin D, calcium, potassium, and magnesium) are absorbed by the body after intake of milk and PBMAs. Nutrient absorption will be measured using blood samples after short term intake (from 1 hours to 1 week) of almond, soy, and oat milk, and compare it to cow's milk. Participants in the study will avoid all fluid dairy products and vitamin-D supplemented foods for three weeks and then be asked to consume either almond, soy, oat, or cow's milk for one week. All participants will visit the Clinical Nutrition Research Center (CNRC) four times over the course of about one month. These visits include a screening and pre-study visit (1.5 hrs), a pick-up visit (30 min), one long study day visit (~11 hours), and two shorter follow up study day visits (1 hr).
To investigate the effect of two different dosages collagen hydrolysate (CH) on postprandial blood glucose and insulin profile in prediabetic and normo-glycaemic subjects.This will be investigated in a cross-over randomized double-blind placebo controlled study design.
Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive hemp derivative, is an attractive therapeutic agent, and is most supported by the scientific community as an antiepileptic. Additionally, CBD is also associated with claims related to improvements in overall health, pain, anxiety, depression, and sleep; however, the scientific evidence is lacking. The overarching goal of this investigation is to determine the effects of a 4-week CBD intervention on measures of overall health, pain, anxiety, depression, and sleep in a population of US veterans. Primary aims will explore the effects of 4 weeks of CBD on pain, anxiety, and depression. Secondary aims will determine whether 4 weeks of CBD will affect general measures of overall health and sleep.
All enrolled participants will be randomized to 3 cohorts with 8 participants each and will receive BAP5191 and placebo topically on a square of 121 cm2 each in the left and right scapula region daily for 28 days, with a 28-d safety follow-up. The squares will be covered with a semi-occlusive patch. The doses will escalate from Cohort 1 to Cohort 2 to Cohort 3.
