Active clinical trials for "Dyslipidemias"

In order to study the effect of resveratrol on the improvement of lipid and uric acid metabolism, randomized intervention trials were conducted to compare the effects of resveratrol on the improvement of lipid and uric acid metabolism in different dose groups. To explore the best dose of resveratrol for the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases provide an important scientific basis.

This study evaluates the feasibility of walnuts supplementation among population of high CVD risks over a period of 6 months. 70 participants will be controls receiving non-edible gifts. 70 participants will be given 30 grams of walnuts everyday and 70 participants will be given 60 grams of walnuts a day.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeated doses of RN316 in eligible healthy volunteers. RN316 is an investigational drug that is currently being studied as a cholesterol lowering therapy.

This study will evaluate whether fasting/postprandial serum ApoB-48 levels are increased in diabetic participants compared to nondiabetic participants with the same range of serum LDL-C levels, and whether ApoB-48 levels can be used, along with LDL-C levels, to identify potential cardiovascular disease risk.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of single and repeat doses of GSK256073 with placebo in HVT subjects that have been administrated GSK256073 in the HMA107787 study

An antioxidant dietary supplement made from cocoa powder, and extracts of acai, grape and blueberry will be tested for effects on blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol and related parameters in human subjects.

The purpose of this study is to test the effect of MK0524A (niacin (+) laropiprant) on lowering bad cholesterol and raising good cholesterol.

Experimental results are strongly suggesting that PCSK9 and FXR could occur in the physiopathology of human joined dyslipidemia. But no data in the literature can validate the potential role of these two genes in the lipidic and glucidic metabolism control in physiopathological situations. This protocol is based on the hypothesis that the expression levels of PCSK 9 and FXR are modified for some patients suffering from insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.

Patients with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and elevated triglycerides of 150 mg/dl or higher will be randomized to one of four groups: 1) placebo; 2) metformin; 3) fenofibrate; or 4) combined metformin and fenofibrate for a period of 12 weeks after titration to target dose. We are interested in the effects of these therapies on triglyceride levels, HDL-C, insulin resistance, and markers of inflammation.

Currently, the changes generated in lifestyle, such as excessive consumption of saturated fats and refined carbohydrates, as well as the decrease in the intake of fiber, fruits, vegetables and antioxidants, as well as physical inactivity, have generated an increase in the prevalence of dyslipidemias. Dyslipidemias are a disorder of blood lipid and lipoprotein concentration, which increases the risk of developing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. In Mexico, the dyslipidemias are present in one in four Mexicans over 20 years old. However, in Yucatan increases this frequency increases due to one in three people suffer from dyslipidemia. Its prevalence is even higher in overweight subjects, diabetes and high blood pressure. Thus, it is important to search for strategies to reduce dyslipidemias, as well as the complications associated with them. The treatment and prevention of dyslipidemia is through dietary treatment, which may be accompanied by the consumption of foods that generate beneficial health effects due to the presence of bioactive compounds. Chaya (Cnidoscolus chayamansa) is a plant use in popular medicine to treat medicine in the treatment of chronic degenerative diseases. It contained different bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, vitamin C and polyphenols such as quercetin and kaempferol. Compounds that have been assigned various beneficial effects such as decreased triglyceride concentrations, cholesterol, malondialdehyde, C-Reactive protein, oxidized LDL, which are alterations that are present in dyslipidemia. Therefore, the consumption of this food could be an adequate strategy for subjects with dyslipidemia in Yucatan and Mexico due to the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, and could reduce the risk of developing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases.
