Filter by:Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. Unfortunately, a paucity of literature exists on interventions aimed at improving CVH among Black men. The team of clinician scientists and community partners co-developed a community-based lifestyle intervention titled Black Impact: a 24-week intervention for Black men with less-than-ideal CVH (<4 LS7 metrics in the ideal range) with 45 minutes of weekly physical activity, 45 minutes of weekly health education, and engagement with a health coach, group fitness trainer, and community health worker. Single-arm pilot testing of the intervention (n=74) revealed high feasibility, acceptability, and retention and a 0.93 (95% confidence interval: 0.40, 1.46, p<0.001) point increase in LS7 score at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes included improvements in psychosocial stress (i.e., perceived stress, depressive symptoms), patient activation, and social needs. Thus, robustly powered clinical trials are needed to determine the efficacy of Black Impact and to evaluate the underlying interpersonal and molecular pathways by which Black Impact improves psychosocial stress and CVH. Thus, the investigators propose a randomized, wait-list controlled trial of Black Impact. This novel, community-based intervention to provide a scalable model to improve CVH and psychosocial stress at the population level and evaluate the biological underpinnings by which the intervention mitigates cardiovascular disease risk. The proposed study aligns with American Heart Association's commitment to addressing CVH equity through innovative, multi-modal solutions.
Little is known about the associated factors and mechanisms involved in the development of metabolic disturbance in pediatric obesity. The overall objective of the present study is to investigate clinical, anthropometric, socio-demographic and lifestyle predictors of MHO among obese children and adolescents. The Aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of fat distribution, muscle mass, strength and physical activity level on metabolic morbidity in obese adolescents.
The objective of this project is to provide evidence that L-Citrulline (CIT) supplementation can improve vascular function in the fasted and acute hyperglycemia conditions in middle-aged and older women with metabolic syndrome.
With improved AIDS treatment leading to extended survival, HIV-infected individuals face a higher metabolic syndrome incidence. This study aims to determine the prevalence of Non-AIDS related Comorbidities (NARC) in HIV-infected individuals. Using purposive and snowball sampling, the cross-sectional survey targets 400 HIV-infected individuals aged 40 and above. Data collection includes demographics, physical activity, nutrition, depression, and physiological measurements. Analyzing the data through statistical tests and structural equation modeling, the study aims to provide precise care recommendations for preventive medicine and healthy aging in this population.
The purpose of this study is to find out if receiving education regarding increased risks of cardiometabolic disease helps subjects understand these risks and how these risks participants' health.
Background: According to statistics, Taiwan will become a super-aged society in 2025, and health promotion and care for the elderly are important issues of public health. With the prolongation of life, the older adults need to face their physical weakness, decline in psychological, cognitive and social related functional abilities, the prevalence of chronic diseases and the increase in the disabled population, which has a considerable impact on individuals, families and the overall social economy. However, most older adults suffering from chronic diseases are often accompanied by physical dysfunction, which affects the quality of sleep, causes emotional distress and emotional disorders, and leads to a decline in the quality of life. Studies have found that aromatherapy can not only improve sleep and emotional problems, but also relieve physical discomfort caused by diseases, achieve the purpose of reducing medical costs and improving quality of life. However, there are very few studies regrading older adults who are at risk of metabolic syndrome in community and the effects of inhalation of compound essential oils on their sleep and quality of life. Therefore, this study will explore the use of aromatherapy to improve the quality of sleep and life of the elderly. The research results can be used as a reference for community bases to promote the improvement of sleep and quality of life for older adults, so as to achieve the goal of healthy aging.
Obesity is associated with increased cardiometabolic disease risk due, in part, to heightened chronic inflammation arising from adipose tissue. There are no current targeted therapies to prevent or reverse the chronic inflammation of obesity, and a better understanding of these inflammatory pathways in humans is key to future therapeutic interventions. This trial will determine both the anti-inflammatory potential of the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin, and the contribution of adipose inflammation to surrogate measures of cardiovascular disease in a randomized controlled trial of obese patients.
Safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a novel endogenous plasma metabolite, 6-bromotryptophan, will be established in metabolic syndrome/ insulin resistant participants.
Unhealthy sleep and cardiometabolic risk are two major public health concerns in emerging Black/African American (BAA) adults. Evidence-based sleep interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) are available but not aligned with the needs of this at-risk group. Innovative work on the development of an artificial intelligence sleep chatbot using CBT-I guidelines will provide scalable and efficient sleep interventions for emerging BAA adults.
Metabolic syndrome is a raising concern globally, especially in developing countries such as Pakistan. To prevent its risk factors diet and lifestyle modification is major solution. Functional foods have additional benefits of treating disease while providing basic nutrients. Mulberry is a native fruit with the properties of functional food, it is rich in anthocyanin and different anti-obesity,anti-diabetic, and anti-hyperlipidemic treating potential antioxidants. Mulberry will prove its therapeutic potential against the risk factors of metabolic syndrome.
