Defects in mitochondrial β-oxidation and branched chain amino acid (BCAA) oxidation are associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and other conditions such as Huntington's disease and maple syrup urine disease. Because of these defective mitochondrial pathways, production of TCA cycle intermediates can
STUDY 1: Functional and Metabolic Parameters in participants with NAFLD Participants will undertake two study visits, within a 14-day period. One of the visits will involve MR assessments that will take up to three hours in total. The second visit will involve a postprandial study day using stable
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrinopathy which affects 5-10% of reproductive age women (1). The three main features of the syndrome are polycystic ovaries, high levels of androgen in blood and chronic an-ovulation/oligo-an ovulation (2). Women with PCOS have a greater risk of
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and is characterized by obstruction of the arteries of the lower limbs. PAD is usually associated with vascular complications that occur not only in peripheral circulation but also in cerebral and coronary
Background:
Perioperative nutritional status is a key factor in the evolution, as well as, postoperative morbidity and mortality of cancer patients. Particularly, digestive neoplasms have a high risk of malnutrition and this is related to a higher rate of surgery complications and mortality in the
Hypothesis:
The intake of an oral nutritional supplement (ONS) specifically developed for malnourished hemodialysis patients enriched with functional nutrients (extra virgin olive oil, omega 3 fatty acids, whey protein, antioxidants, carnitine, and with or without probiotics) vs. individualized diet
Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition. The four main mechanisms that lead to acne include excessive production of sebum from hair follicles, sebum retention, proliferation of Propionibacterium acne, and finally inflammation. Many topical agents are available for treating acute phase of acne.
NAFLD occurs when too much fat accumulates in liver tissue. This can, over time, cause inflammation and scarring of the liver, eventually leading to chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. It is strongly associated with diabetes and obesity, both of which are endemic in Western societies.

Radiation therapy remains the principal treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The most frequently occurred radiation-related side effect is probably the radiation-induced oral mucositis, which affects up to 100% of NPC patients receiving radiation therapy, especially combined with
Cystinosis is a rare, multisystem genetic disorder characterized by the accumulation of an amino acid called cystine in different tissues and organs of the body including the kidneys, eyes, muscles, liver, pancreas and brain. Generally, Cystinosis is broken down into three different forms known as
Volunteers over 65 years old (n=40) are supplemented either with carnitine or placebo for 24 weeks. Before the start, in the mid-point, and after finishing the supplementation the following primary outputs variables are performed: body composition analysis (InBody720), maximal isokinetic knee
The body's immune system and a subsequent inflammatory response are triggered during infection. The detection of an activated immune system, and an indication of the degree of the host response, is helpful to the clinician both in assessing the severity of infection and in patient treatment and
This is an open label pilot study to determine the effect of the amino acid nutritional supplement acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) on chronic pancreatitis. ALC is an acetylated form of naturally occurring amino acid L-carnitine ((R)-3-Acetyloxy-4-trimethylammonio-butanoate) found in red meat and is readily
