Adipose, or fat, tissue is a plastic organ that retains the ability to expand and store excess calories during positive energy balance in humans. The capacity of subcutaneous (subQ) adipose tissue to expand and remodel is an important determinant of obesity-related health complications, and impaired expansion of subQ fat tissue …
This randomized study will be conducted to compare the effect of a healthy beef-centric diet to a healthy U.S.-style dietary pattern on inflammation and other metabolic health outcomes in a metabolic syndrome and/or pre-diabetic population.
More than 84 million - or 1 out of every 3 U.S. adults - have prediabetes, a condition that if not treated often leads to type 2 diabetes within five years. Average medical expenditures among diabetics are about 2.3 times higher than expenditures for people without diabetes. Physical inactivity and …
The objective of this pilot study is to determine whether obesity and metabolic syndrome are in fact synergistic in relation to airway nitric oxide (NO) biology. To do so, the investigators want to determine how obesity and the metabolic syndrome relate to metabolism in bronchial airway epithelial cells and the …
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-controlled trial (24 weeks in total), divided into three periods (screening, treatment, and discontinuation follow-up)
This observational study aims to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) and the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) in individuals with overweight or obesity. The study will assess their association with obesity status, metabolic complications, lifestyle patterns, dietary indices, and established inflammatory biomarkers. Participants …
The purpose of this research study is to see if obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with abnormalities in fat metabolism. Through this research study, the Investigator will evaluate how fat is metabolized in people with and without sleep apnea, what substances the fat tissue releases, and how these substances …
POWER Health is a randomized clinical trial with a two-arm parallel design whose objectives are 1) to study metabolic flexibility and autonomic function (both capacities that describe cardiovascular health) in a sample of postmenopausal oncological women vs postmenopausal untreated controls (CT); and 2) to analyze the impact of two different …
The study purpose is to investigate the hypothesis that in adults with SAH, early neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and high protein supplementation (HPRO) will improve muscle mass, metabolic and inflammatory biomarker profiles, compared to SAH controls receiving standard of care interventions for nutrition and mobilization. The investigators will accomplish this …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the combination of Probucol with statin therapy can reduce the risk of vascular events and improve atherosclerosis outcomes in adults with ischemic stroke and confirmed atherosclerosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does adding Probucol to statin therapy …
