NCT04659850
A number of processed foods particularly those high in protein and based on whey protein are high in advanced glycation end products (AGEs). AGEs are the result of a chemical reaction between mainly sugar and protein when they are heated together (known as the Maillard reaction). Whey protein is routinely derived via high temperature processing methods which produce AGEs. AGEs are absorbed during digestion and high circulating concentrations of AGEs are associated with adverse health effects such as dementia and the metabolic syndrome. In this study we aim to firstly ascertain the habitual level of AGE intake in the diet via a dietary questionnaire and equate this to both metabolic health and cognition at baseline. Volunteers will then be given a milkshake with either a high or low AGE content on either a high or low fat background. AGEs are usually ingested as part of a processed food diet which can be high in fat and it is necessary to separate the effects of these two food types. We will test these effects in a young and older group of volunteers with low and higher levels of circulating AGEs respectively. Circulating levels of hormones, glucose and lipids in the blood will be measured as indicators of metabolic health. Cognitive tests will be carried out to assess the impact of AGEs on episodic memory.
NCT05067062
Study will examine the metabolic, physiological and cardiovascular changes by intake of New Zealand blackcurrant extract at rest and during moderate-intensity treadmill walking in healthy males.
NCT03399240
This is a single site evaluation study of Vitastiq device accuracy in healthy men and women in ratio 1:1 (approximately) aged between 18 and 64 years. A total of 45 Vitastiq personal devices will be used by volunteers for two months. The Vitastiq device will be evaluated during three site visits: on day 1, 29 ± 4 days and 57 ± 4 days. During site visit days, blood sampling will be collected and analysed and readings using Vitastiq device will be performed. Data will be analysed retrospectively to evaluate Vitastiq performance compared to blood tests results.
NCT02920359
The study consists of the generation of biological samples (in urine) positive to leuprorelin acetate for doping control by new developed methods, and establish the analytical parameters that reveal the administration of Leuprorelin acetate in healthy volunteers with these methods.
NCT02116075
Study comparing caudal prolotherapy to conventional steroid for chronic low back pain
NCT01256515
The goal of this study is to assess the immunogenicity of inactivated influenza vaccination (IIV) in healthy elderly volunteers aged 50 years and older receiving one of two different health management trainings.
NCT00211640
Male patients between the ages of 18 to 100 years of age who entered the Mid Michigan Health Center were administered a patient demographic questionnaire, a Lower Urinary Tract Symptom (LUTS) questionnaire, and the Men's Sexual Health Questionnaire (MSHQ) without exception. The purpose of this study was to better identify symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with the intent to prescribe better and more helpful treatment options for patients demonstrating these symptoms.
