Air Pollution and Cardiovascular Disease in Qatar: an Interventional Study to Reduce Blood Pressure
The main objective is to determine if in-home portable air cleaners provide persistent reductions in PM2.5 exposures and improvements in systolic blood pressure and biochemical parameters over 4-weeks in patients with metabolic syndrome residing in Qatar.
The Effect of SGLT2 Inhibition on Adipose Inflammation and Endothelial Function
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. …
Time-Restricted Feeding Intervention in Metabolically-Unhealthy Postmenopausal Women
This is a randomized, parallel two-arm clinical trial design to study the efficacy of time-restricted feeding on metabolic risk in postmenopausal women, who may be particularly vulnerable to disruption of circadian eating rhythms and the associated metabolic dysfunction. It is hypothesized that time-restricted feeding will improve insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, …
Photoacoustic/Ultrasound Imaging of Brown Adipose Tissue Activity
The goal of this study is to develop a novel, non-invasive, real-time photoacoustic imaging (PAI) technology for quantifying brown adipose tissue (BAT) and to investigate the differences in BAT morphology and metabolic function between healthy individuals and patients with metabolic syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can …
Validation of Oxygen Nanosensor in Mitochondrial Myopathy
Past mitochondrial disease treatment studies have been unsuccessful in determining treatment efficacy, and a major factor has been the lack of validated biomarkers in mitochondrial myopathy (MM). There is currently a growing number of potential new treatments to be tested through MM clinical intervention trials, which has created a pressing …
Validation of Nanosensor Oxygen Measurement
Past mitochondrial disease treatment studies have been unsuccessful in determining treatment efficacy, and a major factor has been the lack of validated biomarkers in mitochondrial myopathy (MM). There is currently a growing number of potential new treatments to be tested through MM clinical intervention trials, which has created a pressing …
Effects of Single Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation on National-Level Finswimming Performance
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial will investigate the acute effects of sodium bicarbonate supplementation on performance, stroke biomechanics, and selected physiological and perceptual responses during a simulated 200-meter Bi-Fins race in elite finswimmers.
Impact of Supplemental Fiber on Gut and Vascular Health Related in Obesity Phenotypes
Based on prior research, the investigators are interested in whether an intervention targeting gut health (supplemental fiber for 9 weeks total) will improve vascular health in individuals with obesity. Additionally, the investigators are interested in if this response differs based on whether individuals with obesity have very few heart disease …
Applying pGz in Mitochondrial Disease
This is a multi-aim study, studying the effects of conventional exercise (measured through Cardiopulomary Exercises Testing or an in-bed pedal exercise) and passive exercise through periodic acceleration (pGz). Aim 1 will focus on the differences between primary mitochondrial disease (PMD) patients and healthy volunteers. Aim 2 is an exploratory aim, …
Velocity-Based Resistance Training in Kidney Transplant Recipients
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of velocity-based resistance training on renal function and metabolic health in kidney transplant recipients. Participants will be randomized into two groups performing resistance training at different execution velocities (maximal intended vs. submaximal controlled). The intervention will last 12 weeks and include …
