Active clinical trials for "Lipid Metabolism Disorders"

80 children aged 5-13, BMI≥85%, will be recruited to a program for the treatment of overweight children.The intervention group will use the app "Just Dance Now" and The control group will be exposed to the usual program without the app. Measurements will be performed at the beginning of the program, the end and 3 months after completion of the intervention.

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System using specialized vacuum applicators for non-invasive subcutaneous fat reduction of the upper arms.

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ZELTIQ CoolSculpting System using a specialized surface applicator for non-invasive subcutaneous fat reduction in the upper arm.

The subject of doctoral dissertation: Assessment of the effects of a meatless, ketogenic restrictive diet on body composition, strength capacity, oxidative stress and immune response During planning of research and topic of the doctoral dissertation, it was considered how to modify a standard ketogenic diet rich in saturated fatty acids so that the use of this model of nutrition has the most anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, it was decided to conduct a research to check whether a diet rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids will show such an effect when following a high-fat diet. Hypotheses: 1. The ketogenic diet reduces systemic inflammation. 2.The ketogenic diet reduces oxidative stress. 3. The ketogenic diet reduces body fat. 4. A ketogenic diet does not worsen strength performance.

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of abdominal DualSculpting with CoolAdvantage applicators.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of cryolipolysis for non-invasive reduction of submental fat.

Study to Evaluate Non-Invasive Subcutaneous Fat Reduction in the Submental Area using Cryolipolysis. Healthy adult men and women with submental skin fold thickness > 1cm who desire reduction of submental fat.

The purpose of this study is to compare the performance of a cryolipolysis system using various treatment parameters for non-invasive reduction of subcutaneous fat in the lateral thighs.

This study is being performed to reduce unwanted fat, in various body areas, using a new applicator and control unit for Zeltiq.

Accumulation of intramyocellular lipids (IMCLs) due to increased supply of fatty acids can induce defects in the insulin signaling cascade, causing skeletal muscle insulin resistance. However, the causes for muscle insulin resistance are not well understood. The association of elevated IMCLs and insulin resistance has been shown in obese humans and individuals with type 2 diabetes as well as several animal models of insulin resistance. Despite the strong relationship between IMCLs and insulin resistance, this suggested relationship disappears when well-trained endurance athletes are included into this consideration as this group is highly insulin sensitive. This metabolic enigma has been termed the 'athlete's paradox'. The aim of this project is to resolve the mechanisms contributing to the athlete's paradox.
