NCT ID: NCT00914251 Recruiting - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Vascular Effects of Hesperidin in Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: November 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

It has been suggested that cardiovascular risk factors either independently or in cluster (metabolic syndrome) increase the risk of both type 2 diabetes (DM2) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Consumption of citrus fruits is linked to reduced cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hesperidin is a flavanone abundant in citrus fruit with putative vasodilator actions in vitro. While molecular mechanisms of vascular actions of hesperidin begin to be explored, no data on in vivo vascular effect of this flavanone has been ever acquired.

NCT ID: NCT00912210 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Higher Protein Diet and Exercise for Optimal Weight Loss in Elderly Women

Start date: April 2009
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The broad aim is to determine efficacy of a weight loss diet higher in protein and lower in carbohydrate combined with low intensity exercise to favorably impact body composition, bone health, physical function, metabolic disease and quality of life compared to a conventional higher carbohydrate diet in overweight women over age 60.

NCT ID: NCT00911885 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

A Simple Dietary Message to Improve Dietary Quality for Metabolic Syndrome

CANDO
Start date: April 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Identifying a simple dietary recommendation for weight loss and metabolic health may demonstrate potential for a simple public health message to impact coronary heart disease (CHD) prevention and metabolic syndrome. In a randomized clinical trial, the investigators propose to compare the efficacy of two intervention approaches to dietary change for CHD prevention among persons with metabolic syndrome. The two approaches are 1) the AHA Dietary Guidelines; and 2) a simple dietary change condition that focuses on increasing fiber. The investigators hypothesize that a message promoting high fiber intake may be the simple message that has potential to produce broad impact.

NCT ID: NCT00907127 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome

CAN
Start date: January 2007
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The study will test whether damage of the heart nerves appears in patients before they develop diabetes.

NCT ID: NCT00891267 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Effect of Two Doses of Olmesartan Medoxomil and Amlodipine on Vascular Markers in Hypertensive Patients With Metabolic Syndrome

VAMOS
Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to study the effect of two doses of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine on vascular markers in hypertensive patients with metabolic syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT00885313 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Effects of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) on Children With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)

EDACN
Start date: March 2009
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in children or adolescents with well-characterized and liver biopsy confirmed nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

NCT ID: NCT00874952 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Regional Observation of the Metabolic Syndrome

ORSA
Start date: March 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of the study, is to assess the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Italy on a regional basis, defined according to National Cholesterol Education Program/Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP/ATPIII) guidelines criteria.

NCT ID: NCT00871845 Terminated - Obesity Clinical Trials

Increasing Cure Rate of Hepatitis C Therapy in Obese Hepatitis C Patients

Start date: September 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether obese people do not respond to hepatitis C treatment as well as lean people. This research studies whether obese people will show higher sustained virologic response rate if they lose weight by Orlistat use and dietary and lifestyle modification.

NCT ID: NCT00869102 Withdrawn - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Characterization of Beta Cell Failure

Start date: May 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to characterise beta cell function in subjects who despite taking part in a diabetes prevention program (life style intervention with diet and exercise) exhibit impaired glucose tolerance and beta cell dysfunction.

NCT ID: NCT00868673 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

The Role Of Fructose and Uric Acid In the Development of Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: March 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if a low fructose intake could have an impact on weight loss, uric acid levels and the components of the metabolic syndrome (glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin resistance, high blood pressure).
