Active clinical trials for "Inflammation"

T-PA release is impaired in obese subjects. In order to have a better mechanistic understanding of t-PA release, we will compare t-PA release to Flow Mediated Vasodilation, Radial Artery Tonometry, and other markers of endothelial function and oxidative stress.

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the antioxidant effect of a nutraceutical formulation based on vegetable oil and vitamin complex (vitamin K2 and vitamin B9) in subjects with the same level of physical activity (LAF 1.70-1.99, normally active or moderately active).

This study will determine if cannabidiol (CBD) has any effect on local inflammation in periodontal maintenance patients. Many successful therapies exist for the active, untreated periodontal patient. Unfortunately, periodontology has not yet discovered a therapy that will predictably treat local inflammation in patients who are at risk for further pocketing, bleeding on probing, bone loss and ultimately, tooth loss. Although CBD has been patented in various forms since the 1940s, its acceptance and availability to patients has only recently expanded. Marketing of CBD to periodontal patients as a means to control inflammation is commonplace online and in CBD-specific shops. In determining if CBD is a successful supplement to conventional periodontal inflammation control therapies, millions of patients could benefit from this treatment.

Normal volunteers were randomly received Sheep ghee or sunflower oil, and before and after the study lipid profile and HS-CRP were measured.

The goal of this Phase 2 MCI study is to determine whether 1.0 mg/kg XPro1595 is superior to placebo at improving measures of cognition, functioning and brain quality in individuals with MCI and biomarkers associated with neuroinflammation (APOE4) and to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of XPro1595.

Since biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) are available in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) strategy an emerging question is the definition of remission in RA. Today some criteria were already proposed and the last one was proposed in 2011. All these criteria integrated only clinical criteria without imaging assessment. In this context, ultrasound joint is daily performed without definition of remission. A discrepancy exists between clinical remission and persistence of active disease with ultrasound joint presence of a Doppler effect indicating inflammation and the risk of progression of joint damage. A definition of remission in RA could include erosions regression in subchondral bone (at best measured by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT)). The main hypothesis is that the reduction of erosion size assessed by HR-pQCT will be observed only in the absence of local inflammation measured by Doppler ultrasound in the erosion. Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) blockers have strongly improved RA therapy outcome in terms of clinical improvement and structural damage (progression of radiographic lesions). Recent data showed that there could be joint bone rebuilt in case of inflammation suppression. HR-pQCT is a new technique emerging for bone erosions assessment in RA. Erosions size and volume could be reduced with anti-TNF, but with a large interindividual variability. There was no correlation between the activity of clinical or ultrasound synovium and evolution of erosion HR-pQCT.

This study will assess the feasibility of a randomized control trial in which the effects of probiotic supplementation throughout pregnancy on maternal insulin sensitivity and inflammation, as well offspring gene expression and body composition are examined.

ENRGISE Pilot Study will test the ability of anti-inflammatory interventions for preventing major mobility disability by improving or preserving walking ability.

The purpose of this study is to examine weather treatment with anthocyanins will affect lipid profile, markers of inflammation and oxidative stress in addition to antioxidative level in serum to the better in persons with increased risk of dementia. The purpose of this study is to examine weather treatment with anthocyanins will increase the score of relevant tests of cognitive function. The investigators will do an open pilot study where patients receive anthocyanin for 16 weeks. 34 patients are expected to be included. In addition we will include 20 healthy Controls.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the bronchial inflammation and hyperresponsiveness after oil supplementation. Before and after oil supplementation the investigators measure decrease in lung function after exercise-challenge in a cold chamber and increase of inflammatory markers in the blood.
