Reduced Intensity Conditioning for Non-Malignant Disorders Undergoing UCBT, BMT or PBSCT
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of using a reduced-intensity condition (RIC) regimen with umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT), double cord UCBT, matched unrelated donor (MUD) bone marrow transplant (BMT) or peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) in patients with non-malignant disorders that are amenable to …
Mitochondrial Substrate Utilization in the Diabetic Human Heart
Diabetes can lead to heart failure independently, but the underlying causes remain incompletely understood. The main aim of this study is to identify differential regulation of mitochondrial substrate utilization and complex activity in heart failure and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). For this, we will conduct a prospective, observational study …
Enhancement of Quality of Work And Life
Work participation is essential for quality of life, providing purpose, social interaction, financial security, and shaping social status. Work participation is increasingly compromised in people with slowly progressive chronic disorders (hereafter referred to as progressive disorders). This negatively impacts their quality of life. Early work-related support, focused on sustainable work-retention, …
Identification of a Score for the Assessment of Intrapancreatic Fat
The SPES clinical study aims to evaluate the relationship between pancreatic fat accumulation (pancreatic steatosis) and metabolic health. Pancreatic steatosis has been linked to conditions like type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome, but the underlying mechanisms and its impact on beta-cell function remain poorly understood. The primary goal of …
Vibration Applications After Total Knee Arthroplasty in Osteopenic Women
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disease characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage, leading to functional impairment of surrounding bone and soft tissues. It is a major global public health problem, with the knee joint being the most commonly affected site. Treatment modalities include exercise, diet, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory …
iWAIST Trial: ERCG (Endoscopic Radial Compression Gastroplasty) vs Optimized Lifestyle Intervention for Weight Loss
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 …
Impact GLP-1 Agonists Following Bariatric
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 …
Quantifying Hepatic Mitochondrial Fluxes in Humans
In this study the investigators will quantitate hepatic mitochondrial fluxes in T2D patients with NAFL and NASH before and after 16-weeks treatment with the insulin sensitizer pioglitazone
Extended-Release Tacrolimus Following Liver Transplantation
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 …
Evaluation of a New Ultrasound System for the Non-invasive Assessment of Liver Steatosis in MASLD/MASH Patients
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.
