NCT07158697
The goal of this study is to: 1. assess the feasibility, acceptability, and the preliminary effects of the health chat for empowerment-based lifestyle planning for CMM (HcELP\_CMM); 2. examine the short-term effects of the HcELP\_CMM program on lifestyle behaviors, cardiometabolic indicators, symptom burden, health related quality of life (HRQoL), psychological well-being, and physical function in patients with CMM; 3. examine the long-term effects of the HcELP\_CMM program on lifestyle behaviors, cardiometabolic indicators, symptom burden, HRQoL, psychological well-being, and physical function in patients with CMM. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. If the HcELP\_CMM program is feasible and acceptable? 2. If the HcELP\_CMM program has the potential to improve the lifestyle behaviors, cardiometabolic indicators, symptom burden, HRQoL, psychological well-being, and physical function in patients with CMM compared to the usual care group in the short-term? 3. If the HcELP\_CMM program has the potential to improve the lifestyle behaviors, cardiometabolic indicators, symptom burden, HRQoL, psychological well-being, and physical function in patients with CMM compared to the usual care group in the long-term?
NCT06593327
A pragmatic, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a heart failure (HF) risk assessment and prevention strategy incorporating HF clinical risk scores (WATCH-DM) with cardiac biomarker (NT-proBNP) paired with a clinical decision support tool to implement an intensive prevention strategy among patients with high risk focused on implementation of evidence-based HF preventive therapies.
NCT07386665
Type of Study: Clinical Trial Goal: The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate how performing exercise at different times of day (morning vs. evening) affects liver fat, cardiometabolic health, and gut microbiota in postmenopausal women. Participant Population/Health Conditions: The study will involve 63 sedentary postmenopausal women (aged 45-75) diagnosed with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Main Questions: The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does morning exercise reduce hepatic fat more effectively than evening exercise? * How does time-of-day-specific exercise influence cardiometabolic markers? * Do changes in gut microbiota contribute to the metabolic effects of exercise timing? Participants Will: Be randomized into one of three groups: morning exercise, evening exercise, or a usual-care control group. Follow the assigned regimen for 12 weeks. The exercise groups will perform supervised aerobic and resistance training three times per week. Provide blood, stool, and imaging data before and after the intervention to determine the effects of the intervention. Comparison Group: Researchers will compare the effects of morning vs. evening exercise (and usual care) on hepatic fat reduction and cardiometabolic improvement, as well as changes in gut microbiota.
NCT06907524
The goal of this longitudinal study is to investigate the role of virtual health coaching on mitigation of cardiometabolic disease risk in an underserved, food insecure population. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does longitudinal, individualized health coaching directed at lifestyle modification reduce patient 10-year risk of heart attack or stroke? * Does longitudinal, individualized health coaching directed at lifestyle modification reduce rates of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes? * Does longitudinal, individualized health coaching directed at lifestyle modification improve accessibility to healthcare? Researchers will investigate the effects of regularly scheduled health coaching sessions on composite cardiometabolic risk profile as well as individual modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. Participants will: * Participate in in-person cardiovascular screening, occuring at the time of enrollment, months 3 and 6. * Engage in virtual health coaching sessions to talk about diet, exercise, weight loss, blood pressure and diabetes control, and accessibility to healthcare * Keep a log of their blood pressure
NCT04271735
Background: Psoriasis causes chronic inflammation in the body. Researchers want to see if a kind of vitamin B3 dietary supplement can help. This might lead to more treatment options. Objective: To test if the dietary supplement nicotinamide riboside can improve immune system function in the blood and skin of people with mild to moderate psoriasis. Eligibility: People ages 18-80 with mild to moderate active psoriasis not currently treated with biological therapy Design: Participations will be screened with: * Medical and medication history * Physical exam * Measure of body mass index * Skin exam * Blood and urine tests Participants will have visit 1. They will have repeats of the screening tests. They may also have 2 skin biopsies, which are optional. These will be from both lesions and unaffected areas. The areas will be injected with a numbing medicine. A round cutting device will remove small pieces of skin from each area. Participants will take the study supplement or a placebo starting at the first visit. Neither participants nor the study team will know which they receive. Participants will take capsules twice daily for a total of 4 weeks. Participants will then have visit 2. This will include the tests performed at visit 1. Participants may by contacted by phone or email between visits to see how they are doing. If participants develop any side effects in the 7 days after they stop taking the capsules, they may have another visit.
