The objective of this study is to pilot a multifaceted, optimized intervention for metabolic syndrome (MetS) in emergency department patients to establish feasibility. Participants (n=20) will be randomized to intervention or control (usual care). The composite intervention will include an educational video outlining the adverse effects of MetS and the …
Obesity and overweight are rising in Chinese populations, where metabolic risks begin at lower BMI thresholds than in Western cohorts. Many individuals with overweight or mild-to-moderate obesity are ineligible or unwilling to undergo bariatric surgery due to invasiveness and risk. Endoscopic bariatric and metabolic therapies offer minimally invasive alternatives but …
The overall goal is to examine the efficacy of a circadian intervention in people with overweight and obesity and habitual short sleep duration (HSSD). Participants will undergo a randomized controlled trial, with circadian intervention and control (healthy lifestyle) groups. The circadian intervention is designed to reduce nighttime light exposure and …
From the age of 50 onwards, there is a disproportionate decline in muscle strength, mass and function, which can be prevented or at least delayed by physical training. Unfortunately, many training programmes are very time-consuming and strenuous and are therefore not carried out consistently. Whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS), a technology in …
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that helps regulate blood glucose levels through improved insulin sensitivity and release of insulin from the pancreas, control hunger, induce satiety and plays a role in the metabolic health of a person. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs) have been shown to be effective in …
Medications used after transplant to prevent rejection are associated with many side effects. Tacrolimus side effects include kidney dysfunction; tremor, headaches, difficulty sleeping, change in sensation (legs), seizure, or confusion; high blood pressure; anemia, or low blood cell counts; diabetes; abnormal cholesterol and weight gain. The investigators want to use …
Positron emission tomography with 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is the conventional imaging technique to provide information regarding tissue glucose uptake and has been highly clinically successful. However, it cannot assess downstream metabolism, which may be useful in the diagnosis and assessment of treatment response in a variety of diseases. Patients will …
The objective of the study is to evaluate an ultraportable ultrasound device, Hepatoscope, for the non-invasive assessment of hepatic steatosis in patients with metabolic-dysfunction associated liver diseases (MASLD), by comparing its measurements with current diagnostic modalities, such as MRI-PDFF.
The aim of the study is to compare the 6 months clinical outcome of the treatment with a single injection of Homologous PRP versus single injection of placebo (saline solution) in the infiltrative treatment of knee osteoarthritis in over 65 years old patients. The evaluation will be performed through clinical, …
This study aims to investigate how moderate wine consumption influences circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) in healthy adults. EVs are small particles released by cells that carry proteins, lipids, and genetic material, and play important roles in communication between cells. Participants will consume a single serving of red or white wine, …
