Recovery time after thyroid surgery may depend on several factors, such as postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, postoperative sore throat, phonation disorders associated with recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy, and symptomatic postoperative hypocalcaemia associated with postoperative
A telephone screening interview will be used to assess each participant's OA status and assessment of the reported duration of knee OA, current and past treatments, comorbid conditions, current medication use, dietary conditions and other exclusion criteria. Eligible, participants will be invited to
Study design:
This is a triple-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.
Sample size:
The sample size was calculated to observe a difference of 15% in insulin sensitivity based on two outcomes: glucose rate of appearance (Ra) and glucose rate of disappearance (Rd) obtained from
Periodontal disease is an infection that causes inflammation of the tooth supporting structures, which results in the destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, and eventually, tooth loss. The aetiology of the disease is oral biofilm. Therefore, the regular mechanical removal of
This study will be carried out to examine the effect of herbal tea in recruited subjects in an intervention single-group pretest-posttest study for a period of 7 weeks. Subjects will consume twice a day for a period of 7 weeks an herbal tea of (carob, anise, wild thyme, and eucalyptus leaves) before
The effect of the consumption of fruit-based drinks, sweetened and rich in bioactive compounds has been evaluated in acute and chronic clinical studies. They have been carried out at the Catholic University of Murcia, in accordance with the Helsinki Declaration of Human Studies and approved by the
The proposed study is a double-blind, cross-over two-week intervention, simulating the peaking phases (high-intensity and volume) in young competitive soccer players.
Study Procedures: All tests and measurements will be performed within six-weeks across five visits. The two training intervention
Introduction Overweight and obesity have increased along with the rate of other non-communicable diseases worldwide. At the same time, the consumption of non-caloric sweeteners (NCS) has risen considerably among the general population. Although international organizations such as Joint FAO/WHO
Background:
Consumption of non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) has dramatically increased worldwide and is more prevalent in women than men. Similarly, obesity rates have continued to rise, most notably in minorities. Since NNS consumption has been linked to obesity, we propose studying NNS effects
A human bioavailability study will be carried out to achieve the above-described goals. The human intervention study will consist of a short-term randomized cross-over trial, addressed at measuring the daily mean concentrations of each coffee/cocoa-derived circulating metabolite (CCDCM) for the four
Fructose is a monosaccharide present naturally in foods as fruit, vegetables and honey. In fruit, vegetables and table sugar it is also present as a disaccharide (sucrose), where it is joined with glucose. The intake of fructose has increased dramatically in the last decades. The increase is
The proposed study will investigate LCS-induced changes in metabolically "at-risk" young adults, under conditions that reflect typical beverage consumption. We will first identify molecular pathways potentially affected by LCS (adipose transcriptomics via global RNAseq) and then identify links
Atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the major cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the arteries in which activated macrophages are abundant in the atherosclerotic lesions.
Macrophages play key roles during early atherogenesis.
In Europe, about 73 000 persons/year get cancer in the head and neck region. The treatment for oral cancer vary depending on tumour site and stage. Some subjects undergo surgery, some subjects are treated with chemotherapy in combination with the radiation and in some cases brachytherapy is used.
Need for proposed research: High quality systematic reviews and meta-analyses of controlled trials represent the highest level of evidence to support dietary guidelines and public health policy development. As HFCS has gained increasing popularity as a popular sweetener over the past ~50 years,
