The investigators are piloting a 3 month community-based lifestyle medicine program that incorporates experiences and education in urban agriculture, nutrition, culinary arts, and physical fitness to test the hypothesis whether this improves clinical and socio-behavioral outcomes of participants with Cardiovascular Kidney Metabolic (CKM) syndrome (high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, and obesity) in comparison to the current medical care model (usual care) or providing healthy produce (medically tailored groceries).
This study is a human-centered, three-arm, parallel-group, randomized control, implementation trial (n=75) to compare MTM (Medically Tailored Meals) only (14 meals delivered weekly for 10 weeks) vs. MTM + SMA (Shared Medical Appointments; once weekly sessions for 10 weeks) vs. a wait-list control group (MTM-Later) in patients with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and/or metabolic syndrome. All intervention components will be culturally congruent (e.g., MTMs will include food that converges with culturally relevant diets and SMAs will be delivered by individuals with racial concordance to the target community). Primary outcomes will be implementation (recruitment and retention rates) and feasibility (engagement and satisfaction). Participants will be recruited from Cleveland Clinic's South Pointe Hospital in Warrensville Heights, a predominantly Black community with low socioeconomic status and high cardiovascular disease morbidity.
Obesity is a significant health issue that increases the risk of serious cardiovascular problems. In recent years, two dietary methods, the Ketogenic Diet (KD) and Intermittent Fasting (IF), have become popular for their potential to treat obesity and its related issue, hypertension. While both diets are known for their effectiveness in weight loss, their specific impacts on blood pressure (BP) and overall heart health risks are less understood especially in menopausal women. The main goal of this study was to investigate how the Ketogenic Diet and Intermittent Fasting compare to a regular, unrestricted diet (referred to as Free Diet or FD) in terms of their effects on clinic blood pressure levels in menopausal women. Additionally, the study looked at changes in Body Mass Index (BMI), the percentage of total body weight loss, body fat percentage, waist and hip measurements, the ratio of waist-to-hip size, and the Phase Angle (PhA), which is a measure of the body's overall health status.
This is a single-arm design. A total of 15 Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients with comorbid Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) will be recruited from community. The intervention will be a 4-week of Chinese Herbal Medicine granules treatment, which will consist of six Chinese herbs. The primary outcome measure will be fasting plasma glucose and blood pressure. Secondary outcome measures including changes of anthropometric data (body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio), lipid panels (total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein), HbA1C, Framingham Stroke Risk Score (FSRS), Audit of diabetes-dependent quality of Life (ADDQoL), International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF), daily step count and physiological parameters from wearable watch, dietary record, retinal and sublingual vein imaging, concurrent medications and adverse events.
The aim of the study is to examine the clinical applicability of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool for sarcopenia in individuals with PWS by investigating the association between ultrasound-derived measurements, DXA-derived measurements, and sarcopenia-related outcomes.
The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the improvement in body composition effects of lifestyle intervention in subjects with metabolic syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is: Does life style intervention lower body fat% and gene methylation levels in subjects with metabolic syndrome? Participants will answer survey questions and get blood and body composition testing done at day 0, at 6 months and 12 months. Keep a diary of their food and activity and the number of times they use mobile health application.
This randomized controlled trial compared the efficacy of stress reduction with meditation to a health education (HE) group in 201 older African American women over a one-year study period. They were randomly allocated to either of two behavioral treatment groups-1) the Transcendental Meditation (TM( program or 2) a health education (HE) program. Women participants were recruited, tested, and instructed at two clinical sites: Washington, DC and Atlanta, GA. Outcome measures were carotid intima medial thickness, lipid profile, glucose and insulin resistance, and behavioral factors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if increasing adherence to a Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet pattern improves brain and heart health relative to a healthy control diet in middle-aged adults.The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the MIND diet improve cognitive performance and heart health relative to a control diet? Researchers will compare the MIND diet group to a control (a healthy diet that does not match the MIND diet) to see if the MIND provides more benefit to health. Participants will: Consume one meal that follows the MIND diet or a control meal every day for 3 months Visit the lab before and after the 3 months of meals for tests. Keep a record of the food they eat during the study.
This double blind, placebo controlled randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of three commonly used culinary spices - ginger (Zingiber officinale), cinnamon (Cinnamomum) and black seed (Nigella sativa) on the cardiometabolic parameters of individuals with risk factors of metabolic syndrome. Participants consume their assigned treatment for 12 weeks, and key cardiovascular and glucometabolic parameters are recorded at baseline, week 6, and week 12 of the study.
