Filter by:Promotion of MedDiet adherence and psychological well-being in Chile offers a great potential to confront our ongoing epidemiological transition to increased risk factors and non-communicable chronic diseases. The main aims of this clinical trial are to design, implement, and evaluate the impact of a MedDiet- and psychological well-being-based intervention on reversal rate of MetS -compared to a control low fat diet- in Chilean adult population.
Obesity and overweight are noncommunicable diseases with increasing incidence in children, adolescents and adults. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults aged 18 and over were overweight and over 650 million were obese (WHO). In the EU-27 (Eurostat data), 45.7% of women and 60.2% of men were overweight, while 16.3% and 16.8%, respectively, were obese. The growing incidence of overweight and obesity generate worldwide increasing incidence of related conditions as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, metabolic disorders, and cancer, with relevant socio-economical (increase in health costs, increase in disabilities) and environmental consequences (unsustainability of food models, increase in ecological footprint, worsening of climate changes). A transformation of food systems and individual behaviours are necessary to improve the quality of life and the sustainability of lifestyle, which should be oriented at preventing o treating overweight and obesity.
Recent research evidence suggests that cottonseed oil (CSO) may have both direct and indirect anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative impacts linked to bioactive components of CSO and favorable alterations in lipid metabolism. These impacts are directly related to non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. Our overarching hypothesis is that the effect of CSO consumption on oxidative stress markers (isoprostanes), inflammatory cytokines, metabolic biomarkers, and bile acid metabolism will be beneficial for reversing disease pathophysiology linked to oxidative stress, inflammation, and bile acids. Our long-term goal is to establish effective and practical therapeutic strategies utilizing dietary incorporation of CSO to prevent or reverse these diseases. The following hypotheses will be tested in the proposed investigation: H1: CSO consumption will lower exercise-induced oxidative stress, and the effect of CSO will be greater than that of OO for lowering of exercise-induced oxidative stress. H2: CSO consumption will lower inflammatory cytokines and metabolic markers linked to the inflammation process in human participants, and the effect of CSO will be greater than that of OO for lowering inflammation. H3: Features of serum bile acids, serum metabolomes, and lipidomes distinguishing CSO and OO treatment correspond to metabolic pathways illuminating the health benefits of CSO treatment. H4: Metabolic and inflammatory impacts of dietary oils will be greater for 60 g/d of CSO compared to 30 g/d.
The investigators will conduct a pilot cluster randomized trial of Nutri, a clinical decision support software to support collaborative diet goal setting in primary care. Nutri is designed within the Chronic Care Model framework, specifically with the intention of leveraging clinical information systems to connect clinical care with patients' lives in the community setting. Nutri is based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and uses collaborative goal setting between the patient and provider to identify a behavioral intention (i.e., diet goal) and improve goal self-efficacy by improving attitudes/outcome expectations, subjective norms/social support, and perceived behavioral control. In this pilot trial, the intervention group (N=10 primary care providers [PCPs], N=40 patients) receives collaborative diet goal setting via Nutri, and the control group receives usual care(N=10 PCP, N=40 patients). Before and after the appointment, patients will report food they consumed over the last 24 hours via the dietary recall tool, ASA24 and respond to surveys about behavioral intention and self-efficacy. Intervention PCPs will be alerted when the Nutri workflow is available for a patient and asked to complete it during their visit with that patient.
The COVID-19 lockdown has represented an unedited model of increased metabolic risk in all age groups, due to negative changes in dietary habits, physical activity, lifestyle. These effects have been generally explored at a population level in distinct age groups. Potential intra-familial, specific effects in adults and children sharing the same socio-economic, cultural level and living habits have been scarcely explored. The investigators aimed to extend the previous observations concerning anthropometric data at the intra-familial level. In particular, The investigators prospectively characterized the variations in lifestyle habits and related outcomes over a 2 two months COVID-19 lockdown period, exploring both parents and their children. A cohort of 149 couple parent/children were prospectively enrolled. By a validated questionnaire The investigators explored changes of Body Mass Index (BMI) and individual lifestyle during a 2-month lockdown.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle program for women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). The investigators want to assess the efficacy of a pulse-based diet (i.e. a diet that contains lentils, chick-peas, and beans) on the clinical features, biochemical, and hormonal parameters of PCOS compared to the healthy therapeutic lifestyle changes diet.
As a result of our research, investigators could not find any study investigating the effectiveness of complex decongestive physiotherapy (KBF) in lymphedema patients with metabolic syndrome. Therefore, our aim is to compare the effectiveness of KBF in patients with and without metabolic syndrome.
Systematic inflammation and lipid profiles are two major therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases. The effectiveness of vegan diet has been reported (doi: 10.3389/fnut.2022.807810). Aim: To compare the effectiveness of a nutritionally balanced vegan diet and a Myplate diet ((Taiwanese version) on systematic inflammation and lipoprotein subclass. Design: Randomized crossover design
The purpose of this study is to assess the glycaemic controlling effects of BSG and bio-transformed BSG-containing biscuits in Singapore adults with MetS. The investigators hypothesized that consumption of BSG and bio-transformed BSG containing biscuit will improve glycaemic control.
This study proposes to examine the independent and combined effects of an 8-week home-based, equipment-free HIIT exercise intervention with/without Mediterranean diet through ghrelin-mediated alteration in overweight and obese metabolic women to improve cardiovascular-risk related markers and metabolic risk factors.
