Filter by:The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of one session of aerobic exercise associated with low level laser therapy in lipolytic activity, lipid profile and inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein - CRP).
This is a Phase II study for the use of T-cell replete reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) haploidentical donor allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HaploHCT) for individuals with high-risk non-malignant diseases who lack a suitable HLA-matched sibling donor.
In this study the investigators aim at addressing potential relationships between iron stores and glucose homeostasis. Iron (i.e. Ferric Carboxymaltose) will be perfused to pre-menopausal, iron-deficient non-anaemic women suffering from a chronic fatigue syndrome and parameters related to glucose homeostasis, parameters related to metabolic syndrome and inflammation will be measured before and after the intervention.
This study is planning to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of medium-chain fatty acid capsules (food-grade CNT-02) in subjects with primary triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV) and neutral lipid storage disease with myopathy (NLSD-M) associated with adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) genetic defects.
It is about an interventional study.The use of the blotting paper called "Dried Blood Spot" or DBS is a method of systematic neonatal screening of the metabolic diseases. Indeed, it has multiple interests: realized thanks to lancets, it is much less invasive than a classic blood collection. Besides, the transport of the blood sampling is facilitated because most of the analysts are stable on DBS at room temperature one week or more. Finally the use of this DM reduces the infectious risks bound to the manipulation of the blood sampling and to the inactivation of microorganisms. The moderate results are vitamin D, albumin, prealbumin, CRP, orosomucoide The DBS presents a major interest for the care of the old and fragile people who have on one hand a low peripheral venous capital and on the other hand for whom the possibility of a dosage on DBS will allow a facilitated biological follow-up. Indeed it is very important to detect as soon as possible the most fragile old people, those who have the biggest risk of seeing their health degrading during a physical, psychic or social stress, to concentrate the efforts of coverage and limit these risks. The advantage of the biological criteria is the speed of the test making (a blood test), in the absence of necessity of active participation by the patient (the clinical criteria require to test the patient in the walking, to test its muscular strength, etc.) and in the saving of time diagnosis for the clinician. The blood biological markers of the fragility are essentially the rate of 25OH vitamin D, the markers of undernutrition (albumin, prealbumin) and of the inflammation (CRP, orosomucoïde). These last four parameters are now measurable from the DBS thanks to the quantitative mass spectrometry.
The purpose of this study is to describe the safety profile of ProHema-CB as part of a single cord blood unit transplant after a myeloablative conditioning regimen in pediatric patients with inherited metabolic disorders. The safety profile will primarily be assessed by neutrophil engraftment.
Glycogen storage disease (GSD) patients frequently experience periods of hypoglycemia, putting them at risk for several complications, such as hepatomegaly, adenomas, and cirrhosis. As of now, glycogen storage disease patients are limited to using finger stick glucose meters to monitor their glycemia at home. Diabetes Sentry, a non-invasive hypoglycemia detector designed like a watch, has been available for diabetic patients to non-invasively alert for hypoglycemia, but has never been tested in a GSD population. The investigators propose to test the accuracy of the Diabetes Sentry on patients with GSD types 0, I, III, VI, and IX, by measuring their metabolic markers every two hours, as well as whenever the device alerts for hypoglycemia. If accurate, it could be a useful tool for GSD patients in managing hypoglycemia, both clinically and at home.
In rodents, obesity is associated with changes in tight junctions' structure in small intestine, which impacts intestinal permeability and results in metabolic complications. Few data exist in human. We hypothesized that intestinal permeability is altered in obese subjects in comparison to lean subjects, linked to metabolic and inflammatory status and that these alterations are modified after gastric bypass.
The purpose of this study is to determine a safe dose of BPX-501 gene modified T cells infused after a haplo-identical stem cell transplant to facilitate engraftment and the safety of Rimiducid (AP1903) on day 7 to prevent GVHD.
The purpose of this study is evaluate the natural course of disease progression related to gross motor function in children with metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).
