Filter by:Coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects a substantial portion of the population and carries a significant disease burden, often leading to poor outcomes. Despite efforts to strictly control traditional risk factors, the efficacy in improving outcomes for patients with both CHD and CKD has been limited. Recent advancements in lipid metabolism research have identified new lipid metabolites associated with the occurrence and prognosis of CHD and CKD. Our preliminary trial has shown that levels of certain lipid metabolites, such as Cer(18:1/16:0), HexCer(18:1/16:0), and PI(18:0/18:1), are notably elevated in patients with CHD and reduced kidney function compared to those with relatively normal kidney function. This suggests that dysregulation of these non-traditional lipid metabolites may contribute to residual risk for adverse outcomes in these patients. Furthermore, the emerging concept of "cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome" and the availability of new treatment options highlight the urgent need for a risk stratification tool tailored to modern management strategies and treatment goals to guide preventive measures effectively. To address this, we propose to conduct a prospective cohort study focusing on CHD combined with CKD. This study aims to comprehensively understand the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment status, and cardiovascular-kidney prognosis in these patients. Through advanced metabolomics analysis, we seek to identify lipid metabolism profiles and non-traditional lipid metabolites associated with the progression of coronary artery disease in CHD-CKD patients. Leveraging clinical databases and metabolomics data, we will develop a robust risk prediction model for adverse cardiovascular-kidney outcomes, providing valuable guidance for clinical diagnosis, treatment decisions, and ultimately improving patient prognosis.
POWER Health is a randomized clinical trial with a two-arm parallel design whose objectives are 1) to study metabolic flexibility and autonomic function (both capacities that describe cardiovascular health) in a sample of postmenopausal oncological women vs postmenopausal untreated controls (CT); and 2) to analyze the impact of two different 8-week physical exercise supervised interventions: HIIT training vs strength training focused on muscle power, on both cardiovascular capacities in these populations.
The goal of this randomised cross-over trial is to learn about the interaction between sedentary behaviour throughout the day and the metabolic effect of an exercise bout on that same day in office workers with an increased risk for chronic disease. The main question this study aims to answer is if the lipid-lowering effects of an exercise bout can be more pronounced by implementing alternations between a seated and a standing working position throughout the day. Participants will be asked to: - Complete three intervention periods for a duration of 2 days at their workplace, - Attend a supervised training session (60min) at the research facility at the end of each intervention period, - Attend three assessment days at the research facility where postprandial metabolism will be evaluated after a standardised meal test.
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 observational study aims to learn about the correlation between the improving comorbidities associated with obesity after MGB (Mini-Gastric Bypass) surgery and changes in body composition in morbidly obese patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: To study the correlation between the improving comorbidities associated with obesity after MGB(Mini-Gastric Bypass) surgery and changes in body composition. Other objectives are: - Changes in the parameters of the metabolic syndrome after surgery - Changes in the cardiovascular risk biomarkers after metabolic surgery - Emergence in complications arising out of surgery requiring any intervention or causing a prolonged hospital stay, or requiring additional outpatient visits. Type of Study: An observational study in which participants with morbid obesity will undergo mini-gastric bypass surgery as per routine protocol. No separate experimental interventions will be done in the study for the participants.
Despite work showing the overconsumption of saturated fatty acids (SFA) to be metabolically deleterious, debate continues about whether there is a link between SFA and cardiovascular disease risk. To explore this, we are undertaking a human in vivo parallel-design study, comparing two isocaloric high-fat diets; one enriched with SFA and the other enriched with unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), to determine the impact of dietary fat composition on postprandial metabolism, liver fat, cardiac fat and cardiac function.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of GLP-1RA on blood glucose, body weight, glucose and lipid metabolism and fat distribution in overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose and objective of this study is to improve cholesterol treatment among blood donors with FH (Familial Hypercholesterolemia).

Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) represent a major contributor to mortality, morbidity, and healthcare costs. Effective therapies are widely available; however, adherence is low. This contributes to worse patient outcomes and increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The once-daily polypill leverages a population-based strategy that has previously demonstrated efficacy in improving adherence and access to therapy in low-resource settings, making it an innovative approach for improving post-ACS care. This study aims to investigate the utility of a polypill-based strategy for patients with ACS with drug eluting stent (DES) placement. The polypill will consist of a high-intensity statin (rosuvastatin 40 mg daily), aspirin 81 mg daily, and either clopidogrel 75 mg or prasugrel 10 mg daily.
