NCT ID: NCT06067126 Active, not recruiting - Overweight Clinical Trials

Post-delivery Maternal-offspring Obesity and Metabolic Risk After a Prepregnancy Weight-loss Intervention

PrepareD
Start date: April 3, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of PrepareD is to examine whether the prepregnancy weight-loss intervention administered during the Prepare trial [NCT02346162] has an influence in the postnatal period. PrepareD is a cohort study (no intervention) that will address new specific aims through one in-person visit with mothers and children, dietary recalls, actigraphy, and the use of medical record weights. The goal is to collect data when the child is 3 years old. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the investigators expanded the data collection window in order to collect data up to when the child is 5 years old. The investigators hypothesize that intervening on women before pregnancy is the key to breaking the multigenerational cycle of obesity.

NCT ID: NCT06060509 Active, not recruiting - Oxidative Stress Clinical Trials

Study on the Effects of Wheat and Corn Germ Blend Oil on Antioxidation and Immune Regulation of Dyslipidemia Population

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

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the role of wheat and corn germ blended oils in regulating oxidative stress and immunomodulation in dyslipidaemic populations, to explore their effects on intestinal flora, antioxidant and immunomodulation. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does phytosterol-rich wheat corn germ blended oil affect oxidative stress and immune function in dyslipidaemic people compared to peanut oil? - How does phytosterol-rich wheat corn germ blended oil affect serum metabolites, serum fatty acid profile, and intestinal flora in dyslipidaemic populations compared to peanut oil? What are the specific mechanisms involved? Participants will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups, the packaging of germ oil and peanut oil will have a uniform appearance, and participants will be instructed to replace their household cooking oils with the distributed cooking oil for three months, in addition to replacing all the canteens in the staff units with the trial oil for more than three months. Participants did not know who was the control oil, germ oil or peanut oil, and both were randomly distributed to different groups of participants by the third-party supervisors. Researchers will compare peanut oil to see if phytosterol-rich germ oil can improve oxidative stress and immune function in dyslipidaemic populations, in addition to exploring possible underlying mechanisms of improvement using multi-omics techniques.

NCT ID: NCT05933616 Active, not recruiting - Diabetes Mellitus Clinical Trials

Analysis of Volatile Organic Compounds in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes in Induced Hypoglycaemia With a Breath Analyser

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

The breath analysis (BreathSpec® device) data of all participants that were included into the VAARA study (NCT05771090) will be analysed, this includes data from up to 40 breath samples from each of the 10 participants who underwent 2 insulin-induced hypoglycaemic episodes during two visits. The primary objective is to find a possible association between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) measured by the BreathSpec® device and blood glucose. For this we will use descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, as well as a Principal Component Analysis and a partial least squares discriminant analysis. Furthermore, the time lag between hypoglycaemia onset and change in VOCs will be quantified.

NCT ID: NCT05826717 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Fructose Metabolism Disorder

Effect of Matrices on Serum Fructose.

Start date: December 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Epidemiological evidence is accumulating that a high consumption of added sugars is associated with metabolic diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes. Fructose, one of the principal added sugars, is believed to be the most disadvantageous sugar. Data from a large population-based cohort demonstrated that fructose intake from fruit juice and sugar-sweetened beverages, but not whole fruits, is associated with higher intrahepatic lipid content. A study in mice demonstrated that fast fructose exposure resulted in higher intrahepatic lipid content than slow fructose exposure. The food matrix, i.e. the complex spatial organisation of and interactions between nutrients, may account for the fast versus slow fructose exposure and subsequent health consequences. Therefore the investigators aim to investigate the role of the fructose matrices on serum fructose peaks. The investigators hypothesize that liquid fructose matrices will cause higher serum fructose peaks in comparison to solid fructose matrices. Objective: To quantify serum fructose peaks within 150 minutes following intake of fructose-containing matrices.

NCT ID: NCT05762263 Active, not recruiting - Blood Pressure Clinical Trials

The Effect of Flexitarian, Time-restricted Eating on Cardiometabolic Traits in Normal Weight, Young Men

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

The goal of this factorial randomized controlled trial is to find out whether time-restricted eating and flexitarian diet (on its own and combined) can improve cardiometabolic health markers in normal weight, young men with metabolic abnormalities? Participants will be assigned to four groups: control, flexitarian, time-restricted eating and time-restricted eating + flexitarian. Investigators will look for men with elevated fasting blood glucose or blood lipids level or blood pressure and with normal body weight and waistline. Participants from the flexitarian group will be asked to follow a diet that has been carefully designed for them by the PI and dietitian for the period of 8 weeks. Participants from the control group will receive general healthy eating recommendations. We aim to investigate if the experiment had any effect on changes in metabolic, inflammation and nutritional markers, blood pressure and body weight and composition. Also, the effect of diets on men's sleep, general wellbeing and satisfaction with treatment will be investigated. The proposed study can test a potentially effective nutritional intervention which is feasible to adopt and sustainable (in line with recent planetary diet recommendations). Confirming its effectiveness can fill the research gap, providing new knowledge and approach to the prevention and treatment of metabolic abnormalities in young, lean men.

NCT ID: NCT05755321 Active, not recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

From Skin Fibroblasts to Neural Stem Cells to Investigate in Vitro the Impact of Diabetes on Adult Neurogenesis

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Obesity and glucose intolerance or overt diabetes are increasing at an alarming rate in the population, and are bound to become a public health issue and a major cause of disability, loss of independence and high social costs in the near future. A large body of evidence has in recent years highlighted, among the negative effects of overnutrition and glucose dysmetabolism, also an acceleration of cognitive decline and of brain senescence, through cellular (vascular, neuronal, or both) and molecular mechanisms still incompletely clarified. Understanding how overweight and impaired glucose homeostasis negatively affect brain function represents both a major scientific challenge and an avenue to early detection and possibly prevention of this invalidating complication. The aim of this project is to obtain neuronal progenitor-like cells from skin fibroblasts in order to correlate patient-specific metabolism to adult neural stem cell (NSC) and neuronal function in vitro.

NCT ID: NCT05746013 Active, not recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Lipoproteins and ImmunoMetabolism

Start date: February 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Dietary interventions have been consistently proposed as a part of a comprehensive strategy to lower the incidence and severity of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Excessive consumption of fats enriched in saturated fatty acids (SFA) is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis and other CVD. By contrast, replacement of SFA with monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFA) has been reported to be inversely associated with risk of atherosclerosis. This is partly due to the ability of MUFA (and PUFA) in modulating low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL) lipid composition and oxidation status, and thereby the functionality of such lipoproteins. While most of the nutritional studies have focused on elucidating the mechanisms by which dietary fats affect LDL and TRL, little or nothing is known about the regulatory effect of MUFA and PUFA on structure and functional remodelling of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). There is clear evidence of an inverse association between plasma levels of HDL and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. However, recent studies have suggested that HDL may not be as beneficial as thought at least in patients with established cardiometabolic disorders. In those patients, the HDL behaves as pro-inflammatory lipoproteins. Until now, few studies have addressed this "dark side" of HDL and has never been evaluated the role of dietary fatty acids on HDL plasticity (i.e. phenotype and functionality). A better understanding of this duality between anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory HDL would be relevant to prevent HDL-related atherogenic dyslipidemias and to provide personalized dietary advices for a successful management of atherogenic lipid profiles. This step of proof-of-principle will determine the instrumental role of major fatty acids present on a diet (SFA, MUFA and MUFA plus ω-3 PUFA) in promoting or reversing the phenotype of pro-inflammatory HDL. We expect to offer a novel insight on HDL and its relationship with dietary fatty acids through the following objectives: 1) To analyse acute changes in the lipidome, proteome and functional properties of HDL in humans (healthy volunteers and patients with metabolic syndrome) upon a challenge of a meal rich in SFA, MUFA or MUFA plus ω-3 PUFA; and 2) To analyse the influence of diets rich in SFA, MUFA and MUFA plus ω-3 PUFA on HDL plasticity in a preclinical animal model of diet-induced metabolic syndrome and that develops atherosclerosis.
