Filter by:The main aim of the study is to collect preliminary information on the feasibility and efficacy of a time restricted eating intervention in Spanish children and adolescents with obesity and metabolic comorbidities. Two 8-week interventions will performed in a randomized crossover controlled design: a) reduction of the habitual eating window; b) standard care. Different measurements of body composition and cardiometabolic health markers will be performed along those weeks.
The concept that the roots of cardiometabolic disease start in early life was established by Dr. David Barker, who documented relationships between low birthweight (as a marker for challenges during gestation) and later cardiovascular disease (CVD). Later work has suggested that post-natal challenges (similar to prenatal ones) may also exhibit links to later cardiometabolic disease, with the strongest links appearing to be between low weight in early childhood and later hypertension and high waist circumference (WC). However, assessments for the relationship between early childhood challenges and insulin resistance and glucose regulation have been lacking and long-term cohort studies are few. In this project, we aim to assess children initially followed as part of The Etiology, Risk Factors, and Interactions of Enteric Infections and Malnutrition and the Consequences for Child Health (MAL-ED) study, where they received frequent measures of anthropometry and laboratory assessments for intestinal pathogens. These children are now of peri-pubertal age--a time period associated with metabolic shifts. We will assess for glucose dysregulation and findings associated with the metabolic syndrome, and we will analyze potential associations between current chronic disease risk findings with early life poor growth and intestinal pathogen carriage rate. As such, we hope to uncover potential targets in early life health to reduce later chronic disease risk.
Metabolic syndrome and resulting downstream health effects remains a growing health concern. In published trials, the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) assists behavioral changes efforts, leading to improved adherence and results from diet and exercise changes in individuals with obesity, pre-diabetes and diabetes. Mobile health (mHealth) platforms provide satisfactory, easy-to-use tools that help participants in the pursuit of weight change goals. We hypothesize that the use of CGM data and targeted coaching and nutrition education will assist with weight optimization goals in the general (non-diabetic) population using the Signos mHealth platform, with associated health benefits.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an exercise training intervention together with conventional medical treatment can decrease the annual healthcare cost in patients with metabolic syndrome.
It has been shown that person-specific factors, such as the fecal microbiome, influenced postprandial glycemia. The small intestine is the site of nutrient digestion and absorption. The small intestine microbiota is amendable by dietary changes, and plays a key role in host adaptability to dietary variations. The role of the human small intestine microbiota in regulating postprandial glycemic responses towards food products will be investigated. First a screening will take place with to choose the test products that elicit most differential glucose responses and to select subjects with differential postprandial response to the same food product. The study will be a 6-day randomized cross-over trial with two test days. Four test (food) products, each containing 50 gram carbohydrates, and an oral glucose tolerance test will be provided to participants. Twenty men or women (BMI≥25 kg/m2, 40-75 years old) will be included. The main study parameters/endpoints are the food product-induced plasma glucose responses (iAUC) and the small intestine microbiota.
Previous research shows that gypenoside could keep blood lipid and blood sugar under control in an effective way. In this study, we intend to explore whether gypenosides have clinical improvement effects on metabolic diseases such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and non-alcoholic fatty liver and their cardiovascular protective potential. It is designed to recruit 150 patients with metabolic syndrome diagnosed who meet the criteria for enrollment, and randomly divide them into three groups. Gynostemma powder, with two different saponins content (12% and 8%) from Pingli County, Shaanxi Province, and spinach powder with almost no saponins were used to conduct the intervention on patients. Patients will be followed up regularly at the beginning of each month from the first enrollment until the third month. At each follow-up, data of patient's anthropometric indicators as well as clinical inspection indicators related to metabolism (blood routine, liver function, etc.) will be recorded. In addition, patient's blood, hair, urine, and stool samples will be collected to further explore the mechanism of diseases.
Investigation of the effect of a 3-month telemedicine-led lifestyle intervention on cardiovascular risk factors, functional indicators, in patients with metabolic syndrome.
Systematic metabolic diseases are closely related to prevalence and progression of atherosclerosis. This prospective cohort consecutively enrolls patients with coronary artery disease compliacted with metabolic abnormalities such as diabtetes, prediabetes, obesity, chronic kidney disease and hyperuricemia.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila (pAKK) in improving insulin sensitivity in hyperglycaemic, but otherwise healthy persons with metabolic syndrome. This is the primary objective of this study. Secondary objectives consist of evaluation of the effects of next generation beneficial microbes on metabolic health, anthropometry and body composition, and safety. Therefore, the trial is designed as a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multi-center trial comparing pAKK with placebo in restoring insulin sensitivity in dysglycaemic but otherwise healthy subjects with metabolic syndrome. In total, 144 enrolled participants will attend 6 study visits in total. Study visits may be conducted in the clinic, at home by a Healthcare Professional, or by telephone / telemedicine.
