Background: Diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) is the amount of energy one s body uses to eat food, absorb the nutrients from the food, and process those nutrients. Researchers would like to understand more about how changing the balances of protein, fat, carbohydrates, and total calories in the diet can affect DIT. Objective: To learn how different diets can change a person s DIT. Eligibility: Healthy people aged 18 to 60 years who have not intentionally lost weight in the past 6 months. Design: Participants will stay in a clinic for about 35 days. They will eat only the food provided. They will receive 8 different diets during the study, including 7 test diets. Participants will undergo multiple tests. They will be screened with blood and urine tests and a test of their heart function. During the first few days: Their waist, thigh, and neck circumference will be measured. They will have a DXA scan: They will lie on a padded table for about 20 minutes while an instrument measures the amount of fat in their body. They will be tested for diabetes. They will answer questionnaires about topics including eating behavior, hunger, and stress. Throughout the study: Their weight will be measured daily. Blood tests will be repeated. They will stay in a metabolic chamber a total of 9 times. They will remain in a closed room for 24 hours while researchers monitor the room temperature and levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Participants will collect all their urine for each 24-hour period. ...

Study is seeking participants who: * Are between 18 and 75 years of age. * Have a BMI (body mass index) of 17.5 to 40 kg/m2, inclusive, and a total body weight of more than or equal to 45 kilograms or 99 pounds. Participants will take the study medicine as a tablet once at the study clinic and then will stay onsite for about 6 days. During this time, the study team will check for the participant's treatment experience and take some blood samples to test the level of PF-07328948. This will help understand if certain level of decreased liver function could affect the study medicine being processed in the body.
NCT01148381
The influence of genes on addictive and neuropsychiatric disorders is complex, especially given that multiple genes likely influence certain behaviors that are correlated with addiction. Researchers are interested in looking at the genetic information of individuals who are enrolled on National Institute for Drug Abuse studies to investigate specific genetic variants that may be related to substance abuse. Researchers will study the effects of genes on several aspects of thinking such as attention, memory, decision making, problem solving, learning, and emotional feelings, and investigate the ways in which genetic information affects addictive behaviors and substance abuse. In addition, researchers will study how genes may explain differences in imaging data in substance users. Objectives: \- To collect genetic information for research on genetic aspects of addiction and substance abuse. Eligibility: * Adults age 18 or older * (1) healthy, non-drug-using nonsmokers, * (2) healthy smokers, * (3) healthy individuals dependent on other commonly abused drugs, and * (4) individuals with other psychiatric disorders. * Participants must be enrolled in another National Institute on Drug Abuse, Intramural Research Program imaging protocol. Design: * This study involves one to two visits to National Institute on Drug Abuse, Intramural Research Program that may be separate from the participant's current research protocol study visits or on the same day as those visits. * Participants will provide a blood sample and complete questionnaires about mood, memory, and learning. * Participants may also be asked to do a few tasks, such as playing computer games involving coin tosses and money management, or responding to questions on a computer screen.
NCT07568574
Objectives: The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of medical drugs with the potential to enhance performance (PES) in professional athletes over a 5.5 year period, encompassing a 25-week PES Exposure period and 5 year long term follow-up of period comprehensive health and safety monitoring. The secondary objective is to evaluate the impact of PES on athletic performance through validated sport specific and clinical assessments. Methods: This prospective hybrid design study will enrol 60 adult participants, divided into two groups. The first group will receive performance-enhancing substances (PES) directly through the study, administered as Investigational Medicinal Products (IMPs) under comprehensive medical supervision for up to 25 weeks. The second group will include natural athletes and those already using PES prescribed by their own doctors. All substances used in this study are medically approved by national regulatory agencies (e.g., FDA, MHRA, EMA, EDE, etc.), and market authorised. Participants undergo enrollment and baseline health and performance assessments, prior to a 25 weeks of PES exposure. During the period of PES exposure, participants undergo periodic monitoring of comprehensive physiological biomarkers alongside subjective assessments. Following the PES exposure phase, participants will complete repeat baseline health and performance assessments, followed by a titration phase and, where indicated, post-cycle therapy (PCT) to support the restoration of physiological function toward baseline. The study will conclude with a five-year longitudinal follow-up period to monitor long-term health outcomes. During this phase, participants will undergo annual assessments, including cardiac electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), blood and urine biomarkers, routine vital signs, and quality-of-life measures. Additional imaging will include brain functional MRI (fMRI) and vital organ ultrasound at years 1, 3, and 5, with cardiac CT performed as clinically indicated. Athlete safety biomarker assessments, clinical evaluations, and adverse event reporting, will be continuously evaluated by study doctors and with additional safety oversight from a Data Safety Monitoring Board, Independent Medical Commission (a multidisciplinary panel of medical experts), and a Medical Monitor.
NCT04849923
Background: Muscular strength training interventions have long been a cornerstone in the prevention, non-surgical management and rehabilitation of the entire spectrum of musculoskeletal injuries and diseases. The key goal of strength training, especially during rehabilitation, is to regain healthy musculoskeletal function. Yet, there remains a fundamental lack of understanding with regards to the relationship between subject-specific musculoskeletal biomechanics (i.e. multi-body dynamics function) and different types of strength training interventions because of limitations in assessing these parameters outside the research setting. Thus, clinicians, physiotherapists and coaches continue making training recommendations based on subjective and generalised guidelines, with ineffective or possibly harmful consequences for individual patients and athletes. Goal: This project aims to advance strength training guidelines and monitoring of training safety and efficiency by means of subject-specific anatomically-based modelling, biomechanical analysis of musculoskeletal function and mobile monitoring of training volume and muscular fatigue in the athletic and recreational setting. Method: For validation purposes, the investigators will conduct an 8-week intervention study in healthy volunteers with strength training of the key muscle-tendon groups associated with knee joint stability and relate the changes in musculoskeletal and biomechanical parameters to the training-specific parameters and muscular fatigue from mobile monitoring through correlation analysis. Relevance: In Switzerland, more than 1.3 Mio people are members of a fitness center. Strength training is not only a cornerstone in the maintenance of fitness and rehabilitation from musculoskeletal injuries and diseases as the most frequently reported health issues.

This study is being conducted to understand changes in brain activity following administration of two different drugs (Psilocybin and Dextromethorphan) in older adults with low well-being. The main questions it aims to answer are, does psilocybin: 1. Acutely increase complexity of EEG activity in older adults with low well-being, as modulated by the presence of biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. 2. Longitudinally decrease plasma markers of neuroinflammation, as modulated by the presence of biomarkers of AD pathology. 3. Explore longitudinal changes in autonomic physiology via wearable recording devices as well as longitudinal structural and functional brain changes measured in the MRI Participants will be in the study for up to 3 months, which will include 3 to 4 in person visits and 3 to 4 remote visits. Most visits will be between 1 to 3 hours, but the dosing visit will last a minimum of 8 hours and could be as long as 12 hours. During the dosing visit, all participants will receive a single dose of the study drugs and dosages listed below. Researchers will compare participants who receive the following drug options: * A low-to-moderate dose of Psilocybin (5-10 mg) * A moderate-to-high dose of Psilocybin (25-30 mg) * A low-to-moderate dose of Dextromethorphan (30-60 mg) * A moderate-to-high dose of Dextromethorphan (80-90 mg)
NCT07122011
This experimental study explores the neurophysiological mechanisms associated with pain modulation following a single session of low-intensity resistance exercise combined with BFR in healthy young adults. The study evaluates changes in sensory thresholds before and after the intervention using validated quantitative sensory testing (QST) methods. These include pressure pain thresholds, conditioned pain modulation, thermal thresholds, and temporal summation. The findings may contribute to a better understanding of the role of the nervous system in exercise-induced hypoalgesia, particularly in response to BFR protocols, with implications for future research in pain and rehabilitation.
NCT07188389
This study aims to examine the effects of acute aerobic exercise and cardiorespiratory fitness on cellular metabolism of CD8+ T cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs) found in the peripheral blood of humans. In addition, the study will investigate whether the effects of exercise differ based on exercise intensity, as well as whether the effects of exercise and fitness differ between subpopulations of CD8+ T cells and Tregs. Finally, the study aims to examine whether exercise- and fitness-induced changes in cell metabolism relate to changes in cell function.
NCT03727360
The investigators aim to compare the effects of a 6-month moderate intensity exercise training (ET) intervention to a low intensity flexibility exercise control condition (FC) on brain function, cognition, and physical function in cognitively healthy and physically inactive older adults (ages 60-80). Apolipoprotein E epsilon4 (APOE-ε4) allele carriers are known to be at substantially greater risk for cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cognitively intact APOE-ε4 allele carriers, and non-carriers, will be randomly assigned to 6-months of either supervised moderate intensity aerobic exercise training (ET) or supervised flexibility exercise control (FC). The ET and FC each contain a group based exercise component and are run in local retirement communities near College Park, MD, or on the University of Maryland College Park campus. The primary aims of the study are to compare pre-intervention to post-intervention changes in episodic memory performance and MRI biomarkers.

NCT07552675
This study evaluated whether daily supplementation with Astragali radix extract (480 mg/day) for 10 weeks could attenuate training-induced impairments in muscle function, joint pain, and inflammatory markers in moderately active young adults undergoing a structured resistance training program. Participants were randomized in a double-blind, placebo-controlled design to receive either Astragali radix extract (ASTRA) or placebo (PLA) during 8 weeks of progressive resistance training followed by 2 weeks of intensified training. The primary outcome was maximal voluntary isometric torque (MVIT) of the knee extensors. Secondary outcomes included one-repetition maximum (1RM) strength, knee range of motion, muscle soreness (VAS), and circulating blood biomarkers of muscle damage and inflammation.
NCT00001258
The purpose of this study is to use brain imaging technology to investigate the role of the frontal lobe of the brain in the thinking of individuals with schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric disorders and healthy volunteers. Participants in this study will undergo a positron emission tomography (PET) scan of the brain while performing neuropsychological tests. Some of the tests involve cognitive operations that depend upon the frontal cortex. Interactions between frontal lobe activation, cognitive behavior, and neuropharmacology will be assessed by measuring regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) during treatment with drugs that may affect frontal lobe physiology.
NCT07556250
The investigators' previous research identified two distinct subtypes of Cognitive Flexibility (CF), termed CF1 (shifting flexibility) and CF2 (strategy flexibility). The present study aims to determine whether these forms of CF can be trained, how they differ, and the extent to which improvements transfer to broader learning and cognitive skills. In addition, social functioning outcomes and the extent to which social factors moderate the effects of cognitive flexibility training are assessed. The investigators will employ a multi-modal approach combining cognitive-behavioural and neuroimaging methods to examine how brain mechanisms and cognitive performance change following CF-targeted training intervention (Structure learning) compared with active control and a no-training paradigm (passive control).
