NCT ID: NCT00686244 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

IT-Based Training in Metabolic Syndrome

SPRINT
Start date: April 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prospective, randomized, single center, controlled intervention study to investigate the effect of a systematic combined personal and IT-based training on the outcome of patients with metabolic syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT00676845 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Study to Determine if Olmesartan Medoxomil Has the Potential to Benefit the Cardiovascular System in Terms of Arterial Protection

ArtStiff
Start date: August 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will analyse the dose-dependent effect of olmesartan medoxomil on the change in arterial stiffness in subjects with hypertension and metabolic syndrome

NCT ID: NCT00673023 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Study the Role of Genetic Variation in the Determining Lipid Profile Response to Dietary Change

Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether plasma lipoproteins and lipid responsiveness to a dietary modification is influenced by CETP gene polymorphism.

NCT ID: NCT00666848 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Effect of Sitagliptin and an ACE Inhibitor on Blood Pressure in Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: March 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study will measure the effect of the anti-diabetic agent sitagliptin on blood pressure in individuals with the metabolic syndrome. We will also measure the effect of sitagliptin on blood pressure in people already taking a blood pressure medication called an ACE inhibitor.

NCT ID: NCT00666029 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Implications for Treatment of the Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: February 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To characterize features of metabolic syndrome in volunteers. To undertake a randomised trial to determine whether treatment with a statin improves muscle microvascular blood flow.

NCT ID: NCT00665444 Terminated - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Study of Aripiprazole to Reduce Medical Risks in Bipolar Disorder

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

The proposed study is a non-randomized, open label trial that will examine the potential to reduce metabolic risk factors in patients with bipolar I disorder and improve psychiatric and functional outcomes. To accomplish our objective, we plan to conduct a 5-month intervention of 50 obese or overweight adults diagnosed with bipolar disorder. The study will be divided in three steps: Screening, Baseline Period (cross taper to aripiprazole, up to 2 months in duration), Months 1-3 (continued aripiprazole treatment). Subjects will be assessed and meet with their study psychiatrist at least bi-monthly throughout their participation, more frequently when clinically necessary (e.g. during medication tapering or if manic/depressive symptoms emerge). Brief clinical assessments will be conducted at each visit. More thorough assessments will be conducted at Baseline, Week 2, and Month 3.

NCT ID: NCT00664742 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

The Effect of Fluvastatin XL® Treatment in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: September 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluated safety, tolerability and efficacy of Fluvastatin XL® -extended release (80 mg once daily) in patients with metabolic syndrome

NCT ID: NCT00664729 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Diet, Exercise, Metabolism, and Obesity in Older Women

DEMO
Start date: November 2002
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Reductions in fat oxidation and resting metabolic rate (RMR) are associated with normal aging and are accelerated with menopause. As a result, postmenopausal women have an increased risk of abdominal obesity and ultimately the metabolic complications that lead to the insulin resistance syndrome and its associated risks (hyperlipidemia, type 2 diabetes, and coronary heart disease). Thus, there is a need to determine the most successful treatment to reduce visceral obesity in postmenopausal women. The purpose of this study is to determine if dietary-induced weight loss alone and/or weight loss combined with exercise at low and high- intensities differentially affect the reduction in visceral adipose tissue in postmenopausal women with abdominal obesity.

NCT ID: NCT00659828 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Effects of Leptin Replacement in Children

Start date: June 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To assess the endocrine and immune effects of leptin replacement in leptin-deficient children, from a consanguineous family. The hypothesis is that leptin replacement will have significant effects on endocrine function.

NCT ID: NCT00659321 Completed - Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Nicotine Acid on Dyslipidaemia in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: January 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Placebo controlled evaluation of effectiveness of nicotine acid in treatment of postprandial dyslipidemia in patients with metabolic syndrome. Nicotine acid decreases postprandial hyperlipidaemia in patients with metabolic syndrome which reduces the low-grade inflammation and the risk of atherosclerosis.
