Reducing Metabolic Dysregulation in Dyads
This study is a 6-month randomized controlled trail of diet modification designed to reduce chronic inflammation and reverse metabolic dysfunction among obese individuals with one or more polyps found at a colonoscopy screening. We also will recruit an at least overweight partner, who lives in the same household. To be …
Muscle Mass Via UltraSound in Cirrhosis (MMUSCLE)
The goal of this observational cohort study is to learn about loss of muscle mass and muscle strength (sarcopenia) in patients with cirrhosis. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: what is the prevalence and development of sarcopenia in cirrhosis? what is the role of malnutrition? Participants will undergo …
Study of the Effect of Capsinoid Supplementation on Brown Adipose Tissue in Obese Adolescents
Among the new strategies being considered for the treatment of obesity and its metabolic complications, the activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) from white adipose tissue looks promising. Interest in the study of BAT has increased over the last 5-10 years in response to the discovery of functional BAT in …
Adequacy of Haemodiafiltration: Middle Molecules Clearance, Patients Reported Outcomes and Sodium Balance
The goal of this observational study is to understand the differences in terms of middle molecules clearance and patient outcomes in High (\>23Litres (L)) vs Low (\<23 L) convection volume (CV) Hemodiafiltration (HDF) and to understand the effect of dialysate fluid sodium concentration (137 vs 140 mmol/L) on overhydration volume …
Dietary Quality and Nutritional Adequacy Among Vegetarians Attending the European Institute of Oncology
Despite their health benefits, vegetarian dietary patterns can lead to malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies if improperly managed, especially in oncological settings. This survey assesses dietary quality and adequacy in 150 women (18-64 years), further examining how a threemonth nutritional counseling intervention influences body composition, physical activity, and quality of life.
High-energy Human Milk Diets in the First Two Weeks After Birth to Reduce BPD in Extremely Preterm Infants
This Phase II, parallel-group, masked, randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate whether a DHA/ARA-enriched, fortified human milk diet administered during the first 14 days of life reduces respiratory morbidity and improves lung function in extremely preterm (EPT) infants (born at ≤28 weeks gestation).
A Randomized, Triple-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Effects of a Supplement on Nutrient Gaps and Gut Health Among Individuals Utilizing GLP-1 RAs
This study is a triple-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized controlled trial of 120 adults that will evaluate the impact of a novel nutritional supplement on improving nutrient gaps and changing nutrient status and the gut microbiome among glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) users.
Gut Flora Metabolite Reduction After Dietary Intervention (GRADY)
Our group has recently identified the association between gut-flora-mediated carnitine and phosphatidylcholine metabolism, specifically trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), and cardiovascular risk. This study investigates the ability for dietary intervention to modulate TMAO levels.
