Filter by:Significant changes in gut microbiota was noted after the high-volume bowel preparation with PEG before colonoscopy. The dynamic changes were found to be short-term. However, the perturbation pattern of gut microbiota found after bowel preparation may link to metabolic syndrome and obesity. No study had investigated the supplementation of probiotic in this dynamic situation before. Here we proposed this study to fulfill the knowledge gap and also inquiry on the potential therapeutic strategy.1.To test the hypothesis of probiotic supplementation after bowel preparation alters the composition of gut microbiota in a short-term and long-term manner.2.To test the hypothesis of GI tract associated symptoms affected by probiotic supplementation after bowel preparation. 3. To test the hypothesis of clinical events, especially parameters of metabolic syndrome affected by probiotic supplementation after bowel preparation.
Kidney transplant recipients (KTR) have a considerably lower life expectancy as compared with the general population, primarily due to a high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases. KTR often develop an unfavourable cardio-metabolic risk profile characterized by weight gain, metabolic syndrome and post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM). In general, nutrition plays a key role in both the prevention and treatment of these cardio-metabolic derangements. However, in KTR most RCT's with a dietary intervention, failed to show significant improvement in cardio-metabolic health. This at least questions the efficacy of the diets of these intervention, which relied on general or diabetes guidelines, after kidney transplantation. KTR not only face a high cardio-metabolic risk, but also have a high risk for malnutrition and muscle mass depletion. More knowledge is required to determine the optimal diet and macronutrient composition for improvement of the cardio-metabolic risk factors in the context of the high malnutrition risk. In this regard, observational studies point towards the needs for a higher protein intake for better patient outcomes. Therefore, in this study, the investigators will examine if a high-protein, carbohydrate-reduced diet is more effective than a diet in line with the Dutch Dietary Guidelines for improvement of cardio-metabolic risk factors and for improvement of the body composition in KTR.
The global epidemic of childhood obesity, with the accompanying rise in the prevalence of endocrine, metabolic, and cardiovascular comorbidities in youth, represents one of the most important public health issues of the modern world. Nevertheless, a distinct subgroup of youth with obesity less prone to the development of metabolic disturbances, called "metabolically healthy obese" (MHO), has come into focus. Defining the MHO subpopulation within the youth with obesity is of high importance in order to elucidate the mechanisms protecting against the clustering of cardiometabolic risk factors, and for its clinical, preventive, and therapeutic decision-making implications. Little is known about the mechanisms of development of metabolic disturbance in pediatric obesity. Cardiac autonomic function, which can be measured non-invasively with heart rate variability (HRV), has been suggested as a potential mechanism underlying the development of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. The aims of the present study were to investigate clinical, anthropometric, and socio-demographic and lifestyle predictors of MHO in this group and to asses correlation between HRV and the metabolic syndrome progression or improvement , in order to reveal if HRV can serve as a predictor to metabolic disturbance in pediatric obesity population Materials and Methods The study will be performed in the Nutrition and Obesity Clinic of the Pediatric Gastroenterology Unit at "Dana Dwek" Children's Hospital. All children and adolescents that that will be admitted to our clinic between January 2021 to December 2022 will include in the study. sociodemographic parameters will be collected from the medical files.Blood will be drawn for complete metabolic assesment. MUO children will be defined according to the recent international definition. Resting HRV will be measured by Pulse Oximeter (BM2000A/Shanghai Berry Electronic Tech Co., Ltd.). The measurement will be performed twice - at two consecutive visits at the clinic, as part as the routine follow up of the patient every 3 months.
Assessment of Gastric Bypass combined with Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy as primary treatment for patients with severe clinical obesity. Average percentage of total weight loss and percentage excess weight loss will be computed at 6 months, one year and then annually. Comorbid conditions, quality of life measures, appetite and satiety measures and adverse events will be tracked.
This study will be undertaken to evaluate the association of serum uric acid (SUA) level with metabolic risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes and their relation to eGFR status
A prospective, controlled, open trial in psoriasis patients with metabolic syndrome, candidate to methotrexate or secukinumab was conducted between January 2019 and May 2020. The primary end point of the study was investigating any variations in waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, fasting glucose, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol, triglycerides, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine levels between baseline and month-6 and 12 of follow-up.
10-year effect of a lifestyle intervention program (exercise, sedentary lifestyle and dietary diet) on abdominal visceral adipose tissue (primary endpoint of the RESOLVE study 10 years ago): influence of kinetics abdominal visceral adipose tissue loss in the first year of follow-up on abdominal visceral adipose tissue at 10 years
This prospective study aims to identify the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients undergoing EVAR and the implications of metabolic syndrome on the postoperative outcome, the major complications, the thromboembolic events and the perioperative mortality and morbidity of the patients undergoing vascular surgery.
The project aims to find out the differences between two different types of structured training interventions have on the lipid profile of persons with diagnosed dyslipidemia. Each training intervention will last for 12 weeks. Subjects participating in the project will undergo a series of tests before and after the training intervention which will allow us to make conclusions.
A pilot randomised controlled trial will be conducted in UiTM Primary Care Clinic, Selayang Campus, Selangor, Malaysia. A total of 232 patients with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) will be recruited; 116 will be randomised to receive the EMPOWER-SUSTAIN intervention for 6 months and another 116 patients will continue with usual care. The EMPOWER-SUSTAIN intervention is a multifaceted chronic disease management strategies based on the Chronic Care Model (CCM) and persuasive technology theory. It consists of training physicians and patients to use the EMPOWER-SUSTAIN web-based self-management intervention mobile apps, strengthening patient-physician relationship and reinforcing the use of relevant clinical practice guidelines for management and prescribing. The primary outcome is the mean change in patient activation score using the Patient Activation Measure short form Malay version (PAM-13-M) questionnaire. The secondary outcomes include the change in patients' physical activity level, eating behavior, patients' perception on chronic illness care, satisfaction in physician-patient interaction and perceived absolute 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.
