NCT ID: NCT06463990 Active, not recruiting - Hyperlipidemias Clinical Trials

Influence of TyG Index and TG/HDL-C Ratio on Fetal Macrosomia

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

Metabolic disorders that can occur during pregnancy, in particular disorders of lipid metabolism and insulin resistance, can have a detrimental effect on pregnancy and the fetus. The triglyceride level and other lipids increase slightly during pregnancy. This increase has a positive effect on the development of the fetus. However, an excessive increase in lipid levels can cause some metabolic disorders such as gestational diabetes and increase feto-maternal morbidity/mortality. While some existing studies have shown that elevated triglyceride levels can cause fetal macrosomia, others have found no correlation between these two variables. The ratio of triglycerides to HDL is a widely used marker for lipid disorders. In addition, the triglyceride-glucose index is also an index used to detect insulin resistance.

HIBOC = Hepatic Imaging Biomarkers in Obese Children

Start date: October 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this prospective, diagnostic observational study is to learn about how imaging based markers for components of liver disease appear in children with obesity. It aims to determine whether the imaging markers (ultrasound and MRI) for liver disease can be tools to improve diagnostics for liver affection in children with obesity and to ascertain how the markers are related to multiple clinical measures, for example BMI and serology measure, and treatment effects over time.

NCT ID: NCT06448130 Not yet recruiting - Type 2 Diabetes Clinical Trials

Henagliflozin's Impact on Prediabetes Remission

Start date: June 2024
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of Henagliflozin combined with lifestyle interventions for managing patients with prediabetes. As global prediabetes rates rise, increasing the risk of diabetes and vascular issues, addressing treatment gaps is essential. Henagliflozin, a novel SGLT2 inhibitor developed in China, aims to improve glucose control and metabolic health when paired with lifestyle changes. The study's primary objectives include: assessing whether Henagliflozin can achieve normoglycemia in prediabetic patients after 6 months of treatment. The trial will compare three groups (Henagliflozin 5mg, 10mg, and a placebo), focusing on efficacy and safety. Participants, assigned randomly, will undergo a 6-month treatment phase and an 18-month follow-up. Regular health assessments will monitor glucose levels, metabolic health, and risks of major complications like cardiovascular events and microvascular diseases, with additional evaluations of C-peptide and insulin changes. Structured as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, it involves 984 prediabetic adults across 50 medical institutions in China. This comprehensive approach could redefine prediabetes management by integrating drug therapy with lifestyle modifications.

Participants will receive two intravenous infusions of 100 million umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on days 0 and 90. The patient will be monitored for safety and measured as per the study protocol until day 180.

NCT ID: NCT06444711 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Diseases

OPTIMISation of Cardio-renal-metabolic-pulmonary Disease Guideline Adherence in High Risk Community Dwelling Individuals

OPTIMISE
Start date: July 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) causes a quarter of all deaths in the United Kingdom (UK). This is the single biggest area where the National Health Service (NHS) can save lives by detecting and treating risk factors early. Improvements in control of blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, kidney disease, as well as weight loss in individuals who are obese, have been shown to reduce the risk of CVD and death. The NHS has guidelines for investigations and treatments for risk factors recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). Though it is known that better control of risk factors will reduce the risk of CVD the investigators do not know whether having extra appointments in primary care with heart specialists can lead to better treatment and better control of risk factors. The OPTIMISE trial (OPTIMISation of Cardio-renal-metabolic-pulmonary Disease Guideline Adherence in High Risk Community Dwelling Individuals) will compare patients who have consultations at a local General Practitioner (GP) practice by a cardiology professional to optimise the treatment of their risk factors (OPTIMISE) with those patients who receive standard care (Standard care). Standard care is patients being seen by their GP at routine care appointments. Participants in the OPTIMISE arm will be reviewed by the cardiology professional and recommended treatment in line with current NICE guidance. They will be seen at 3 months to review their treatment and potentially adjusted to ensure it meets NICE guidelines. Participants in the standard arm will have data related to their cardiovascular, renal, metabolic and pulmonary risk factors collected through their Electronic Health Record (EHR). At 6 months, all participants will be seen to find out changes to their prescribed medication and the effect of this on their blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar level, and body mass index (BMI). All participants will also complete a quality of life questionnaire prior to randomisation study and at 6 months to identify any differences between the arms and time points.

Adiposity, Cardiometabolic and Neurocognitive Health Among Ethnic Groups: a Feasibility and Pilot Study

ACNH
Start date: November 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this pilot and feasibility study is to is to test the feasibility of conducting a cross-sectional study on adiposity and cardiometabolic and neurocognitive risk factors at Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (KCH). The main aim is to assess and compare anthropometric measurements of adiposity (weight, Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Circumference (WC), Waist-to-Hip ratio (WHR), Neck circumference (NC)), liver fat (hepatic steatosis and fibrosis), cardiometabolic risk factors (dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, hypertension) and neurocognitive risk factors among participants, according to their ethnic background. Participants will come at KCH for one visit and will have their anthropometric measurements and cardio-metabolic profile assessed. They will also perform questionnaires on lifestyle, socio-economic status and neuro-cognitive health during their visit.

NCT ID: NCT06425042 Recruiting - Healthy Aging Clinical Trials

Nicotinamide Riboside Supplementation and Exercise Training to Promote Healthy Longevity

RESTORENAD
Start date: March 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The prevalence of age-related chronic diseases (like obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases) is mounting worldwide, reaching pandemic proportions. These age-related chronic diseases are associated with diminished skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in humans. Nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NAD) is a coenzyme that regulates mitochondrial function, therefore, plays an important role in energy metabolism. Importantly, it has been shown that high cellular NAD+ levels as well as a high NAD+/NADH ratio promote metabolic and mitochondrial health. In contrast, NAD+ bioavailability declines upon aging in humans as well as in animal models of metabolic disorders and type 2 diabetes. These findings fuel the notion of boosting the NAD+ bioavailability in order to improve metabolic disturbances and mitochondrial dysfunction in aged individuals. Supplementation with nicotinamide riboside (NR), a naturally occurring form of vitamin B3, boosts cellular NAD+ levels. However, in contrast to animal studies, NR supplementation in humans has so far been unsuccessful in improving skeletal muscle mitochondrial function, exercise capacity or insulin sensitivity. Interestingly, Recently, it has been suggested that metabolic conditions where NAD+ levels become limited, is needed for NR supplementation to exert beneficial health effects. This metabolic condition could be achieved by exercise. However, studies combining NR and exercise are lacking, and that is why we will perform the present study.

NCT ID: NCT06424132 Not yet recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Thermogenic Silencer Regulatory Factors in Humans

Start date: May 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A promising approach to correct the metabolic dysfunction associated with obesity is to activate brown fat non-shivering thermogenesis (NST). A critical limitation with NST as a therapeutic option, however, is that this beneficial process is silenced under human physiological temperature conditions and the mechanisms of how this occurs is unknown. This study will be the first to identify human NST silencing factors that may be targeted for the treatment of obesity and metabolic disorders.
