Exercise Effects on Health Status in Patients With Severe Mental Illness
People with severe mental disorders have a mortality rate 2 to 3 times higher than that of the general population, largely due to the presence of comorbidities, with a predominance of cardiovascular disease. This population has a higher risk of developing metabolic syndrome compared to the healthy population. Several factors …
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, …
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 …
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 …
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 …
The Effect of Oral Semaglutide on Bone Turnover in Patients With T2D: a Randomized Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial
The hypothesis for this study is that oral Semaglutide, a GLP-1Ra, has a positive effect on the balance between build-up and degradation as well as the strength of the bones in men and women aged 50-85 years with type 2 diabetes and an increased risk of bone fractures. Treatment involves …
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.
Expanded Access Protocol Using CD3+/CD19+ Depleted PBSC
The goal of this protocol is to expand access for patients who lack a fully HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) matched sibling donor and who are candidates for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). These patients have a serious or immediately life-threatening disease for which HSCT is indicated. These patients are …
