Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the health promotion effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) intervention on school-age children who are at high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as the long-term adherence and acceptability of HIIT in this population for future application.
Cardiovascular-renal-metabolic (CRM) syndrome is defined as a systemic disorder with a collection of related signs and symptoms attributable to the coexistence of multiple cardiovascular, renal and metabolic disease with a common underlying pathophysiology in one individual. Surveying this syndrome in a large population in Jordan aims at studying the risk factors, components and stages of the syndrome, thus helping early screening, diagnosing and treating disease and its risk factors.
SWIFT-CORE-101 is a single site survey study designed to assess potential participants' eligibility to screen for industry-sponsored clinical trials. A physician will oversee the informed consent process, after which participants will be surveyed on demographics, medical history, comorbidities, and current symptoms. Site staff may collect vital signs, urine drug screens, blood draws, and urine pregnancy tests. A doctor will review medical history with the participant to determine study suitability via clinical interview. The doctor may reach out to the patient's current treating physicians and pharmacies to determine eligibility for clinical trials.
Background. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) in the world is constantly increasing. Treatment of T2D is complicated by arterial hypertension and obesity (metabolic syndrome - MS). Cardiovascular complications are the main cause of death in patients with MS. Objective weight loss improves clinical and laboratory parameters in patients with T2D and hypertension. Purpose: To study lifespan, glycemic and lipid metabolism, quality of life, and cost-effectiveness of pharmacologic, surgical, and dietetic weight loss methods in obese patients with MS at 24 weeks in a comparative clinical trial. Methods: 1. st stage - Study design: An open pilot prospective clinical trial. The study included 71 adult patients with T2D and hypertension for the Ramadan fast's (RF) weight loss. 2. nd stage - Study design: A 24-week open label, prospective, multicenter, comparative clinical trial with the intention-to-treat analysis. Participants. Totally 150 adult patients with MS aged 35-65 years and with BMI≥27 kg/m2 for Asian will be included. They will be distributed in three comparative groups: drug treatment, surgery and diet. Primary endpoints: weight loss, fasting blood glucose, blood insulin level, systolic/diastolic BP. Secondary endpoints: blood lipids, heel bone mineral density (HBMD), and ejection fraction (EF). Expected results: A prospective multicenter clinical study will provide comparative results on life expectancy, glycemic and lipid metabolism, quality of life, cost-effectiveness of pharmacological, bariatric and dietary methods of weight loss in patients with obesity, T2D and hypertension. As a result of the research, the following will be published: 1. at least three articles and/or reviews in peer-reviewed scientific publications indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web Of Science database and/or having a Cite Score percentile in the Scopus of at least 50; 2. at least 1 patent for an invention (including a positive decision on it).
Cerebral folate deficiency (CFD), a partially treatable condition defined by a low folate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentration, can be linked to genetic defects of folate metabolism or be secondary to various diseases without clear causal link. The team identified a neurological syndrome (named LHIPFOLFD) characterized by deep CFD and a specific leukoencephalopathy, related to several possible gene defects never involving folate metabolism. The team hypothesize that CFD in LHIPFOLD is due to a Choroid Plexus (CP) dysfunction, a brain organ that expresses transporters regulating flux between blood and CSF of numerous metabolites (including folate), and secretes CSF and specific proteins. Consequently, other potentially treatable biochemical abnormalities due to PC dysfunction may exist in LHIPFOLD, beyond CFD. Currently, there is no available clinical explorations to evaluate CP functions, whereas the team consider LHIPFOLD a very useful model to validate the capacity of some relevant diagnostic tools to do so. The objectives are to identify a CP-related MRI and biochemical signature in LHIPFOLD patients, using morphological and functional imaging (CP capillary permeability and CP macrovascular perfusion), and metabolomics/proteomics approaches (untargeted then targeted validation of candidate biomarkers related to CP physiology); and to set-up imaging and biochemical diagnostic tests for clinical practice. For this, brain MRI data and blood/CSF samples will be collected during 2 years from LHIPFOLD patients and controls. Some experimental data indicate that the innovative concept of generalized PC dysfunction as part of a more global pathophysiology has the potential to be applied to other neurological diseases like Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, efficient diagnostic tools exploring CP function will be of great utility not only in LHIPFOLD but also in more common neurological diseases, potentially leading to original therapeutic approaches.
This was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study aiming to assess the effect of a food for special medical purposes with functional release containing calcium butyrate, zinc gluconate and vitamin D3 on liver steatosis in individuals with NAFLD and metabolic syndrome
This observational study investigates the correlation between home blood pressure variability (BPV) and arteriosclerosis, alongside metabolic indicators, in hypertensive patients over a three-year period. The research specifically focuses on the predictive value of home BPV for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure hospitalizations. Utilizing a mobile application called Healthscan for daily BP monitoring, the study aims to enhance the understanding of how BPV impacts cardiovascular and metabolic health in a real-world setting.
This study aims to investigate the effects of consuming fermented oat-based products on gut and overall human health. It is a randomized, controlled, cross-over trial with a dietary intervention. A total of 100 participants will be enrolled in this study and they will eat both fermented and unfermented oat-based products for three weeks. Participants will eat their habitual diet between the dietary intervention periods (wash-out). During the study, participants' perceived health, inflammatory markers, glucose and lipid metabolism, tryptophan metabolites, gastrointestinal symptoms, and gut microbiota will be assessed.
Analyze the clinical intervention effects and differences of progressive precision exercise prescriptions formulated by two methods for determining exercise intensity on metabolic syndrome (MS). Compare the effects of the two on the cardiovascular endurance of the MS population and verify the effectiveness of individualized methods in reducing absolute exercise intensity for MS patients.
The purpose of this observational study is to explore the relationships between gut length, the microbiota and food energy assimilation rates in humans.
