Filter by:This study contributes new evidence for the identification of adolescent TRD and sheds light on differing pathophysiologies by delineating distinct plasma metabolic profiles between adolescent TRD and FEDN-MDD.
A dietary pattern based on Mediterranean diet has been reported as healthy for humans, as well as doing aerobic exercise regularly, diminishing the development of potential inflammation in subjects. Protein intake has been proposed as nutritional strategy to further improve these positives outcomes in terms of preventing inflammation diseases. In this work, overweight patients followed a Mediterranean diet together with aerobic exercise according to WHO-guidelines and were supplemented with 20 g of hemp protein/day, for twelve weeks. Anthropometric and biochemical measures (including analysis of oligoelements), as well as plasma circulating amino acids were evaluated in each patient at the end of the intervention, to assess whether biologically relevant changes could be observed.
The goal of this project is to elucidate interactions between the gut microbiome, anti-inflammatory/anti-oxidant food metabolomic signatures, and human inflammation phenotypes. Inflammation plays both direct and indirect roles in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D), atherogenic cardiovascular diseases, and other causes of morbidity and mortality. Aronia melanocarpa (Aronia berries) are rich in bioactive polyphenolic compounds, which have been shown to lower inflammation and favorably impact metabolism. However, there is tremendous inter-individual variability in the bioavailability of polyphenolics and production of bioactive phenolic metabolites in the colon that depends, at least in part, on digestive metabolism by the gut microbiota. Little is known about the complex interactions among the gut microbiome, anti-inflammatory food metabolomic signatures, and human inflammation phenotypes. This study will utilize a systems-level approach to disentangle these complex interactions. The specific study objectives are as follows: 1. to determine the impact of Aronia supplementation on inflammation, metabolic health, and gut microbiome composition 2. to determine the static and dynamic metabolomic signature of Aronia based on an Aronia supplementation period and responses to a high-fat meal challenge
Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) plays a key role in endothelial function and may be a link for the known interaction of periodontitis and coronary heart disease (CHD). The investigators compared the impact of gingival health, periodontitis (CP), CHD or of both diseases (CP+CHD) on saliva and serum ADMA levels.
This study aimed at determining the Glycaemic Index and Insulinaemic Index Values of Five Cereal Products in two different ethnic groups.
To determine the effects of ambient airpollution exposures on cardiovascular responses among healthy adults without cardiovascular disease.
Obstructive sleep apnea(OSA) is an important identifiable cause of hypertension. Previous study has suggested that OSA significantly increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, especially in patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease.The standardized treatment of moderate/severe OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Most of short-term trials indicated that CPAP treatment reduced BP in patients with OSA. But relevant studies have a relative short duration with only but few more than one year. In our opinion, they are not sufficient to detect the real effect of CPAP on reduction in BP. Besides, the impact of OSA on metabolic disorder is still unclear.We hypothesized that long-term CPAP treatment could reduce blood pressure and improve metabolic disorder in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD)and OSA.
The study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidimensional worksite intervention program to reduce the severity of metabolic disorders in older workers in Taiwan.
A greater visit frequency between the diabetes mellitus 1 (DM1) patient and the medical team increases the possibilities to improve metabolic control. The support of telematic visits can support the patient and the health system. Patients and Method: 160 patients (from 5 participating centres) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) candidates for improved metabolic control selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The telecare system used is comprised of the patient Unit and the doctor Unit. The system allows the patient to send glucose values, insulin doses, carbohydrate contribution and other events via the internet. Both the patient and the professional can use this information via the telecare system platform. Work hypothesis The application of interactive telematic systems between patient-health team will improve the cost effectiveness of care programmes for optimisation of metabolic control directed towards diabetes mellitus (DM1) patients. Objectives: General Objective Evaluate the impact of the telecare system on the efficiency of economic and clinical management of human and material resources directed to a program of metabolic control optimisation in diabetes mellitus 1 (DM1) patients as well as the level of metabolic control and the quality of life of the patients. Specific objectives 1. To identify and analyse the influence of the telecare system on patient costs in time, money and normal work or school activity which the patient has to stop to carry out the physical visits for following the programme. 2. To identify and analyse the influence of the telecare system on medical team costs in time, money and care organisation directed towards the monitoring phase of the metabolic control care programme. 3. To identify and analyse the influence of the telecare system on the level of metabolic control: Glycosylated haemoglobin and the presence of acute hypoglycemic and hyperglycaemic complications in diabetes mellitus 1 (DM1) patients that follow the metabolic optimisation programme. 4. To identify and analyse the influence of the telecare system on the quality of life of the patient measured in satisfaction scale, impact, social/work concern and concern relating to diabetes. 5. To identify and analyse the influence of the telecare system on the adherence to different treatment components.
The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of mipomersen (ISIS 301012) in the reduction of total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and apolipoprotein B (apoB) in high risk subjects intolerant to statins.
