The Effect of Processing on Food Reward
NCT06017986
Recruiting
The minimally processed diets of our ancestors have been rapidly replaced by UPFs driving poor diet to become the leading risk factor for preventable death globally. Hence, it is essential to understand what properties of UPF are driving their overconsumption to reduce diet-related mortality. To address this gap in knowledge this proposal will test: * If UPFs have a greater post meal metabolic response when compared to MPFs an essential signal for food reward * Through the use of an auction tas...

Analysis of Lumbar Spine Stenosis Specimens for Identification of Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis
NCT06034405
Recruiting
Primary objective: To identify older adults with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) early in the course of the illness, at a time when disease modifying therapies are most effective. The specific aims of this epidemiologic investigation include: 1. To identify subjects with previous lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) Surgery who have evidence of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid deposits in spinal specimens and could be at risk for ATTR cardiac amyloidosis. 2. To evaluate for ATTR-CA among those... Read More

AM vs PM Exercise Training
NCT06042439
Recruiting
The treatment of high blood pressure, or hypertension, is multifaceted and can include pharmacological therapies (i.e., medications) and lifestyle modifications such as physical activity. Chronotherapy, which describes timing of a treatment with the body's daily rhythms, has recently been used with hypertension medications and has been shown to be effective at lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease events. Specifically, taking medications in the evening was shown... Read More

Neural and Metabolic Factors in Carbohydrate Reward
NCT06053294
Recruiting
Dietary factors contributed to nearly 50% of all cardiometabolic deaths in the US in 2012, making it one of the leading causes of preventable death in the US, second only to tobacco use. Human diets and food choices can't help but be influenced by the ubiquitous availability of processed foods of high-energy density and low nutrient content, consumption of which can lead to obesity, type II diabetes, heart disease, and other types of metabolic dysfunction. Surprisingly, food reinforcement does n... Read More

A Prospective Study of a Modified Lumbar Puncture (LP) Procedure That Reduces Post-Lumbar Puncture Headaches (PLPH) in Patients
NCT06062446
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to o determine whether the modified LP procedure reduces the incidence of PLPH to 5% or lower, to determine whether the modified LP procedure reduces the frequency of epidural blood patch (EBP) usage to 10% or lower of the PLPH population and to identify factors that may contribute to or reduce incidence of PLPH

Adapting and Testing a Novel Digital Health Tool (PREVENT) to Improve Health Behavior Counseling and Cardiovascular Health in Rural Primary Care Clinics
NCT06063564
Recruiting
The focus on this application is low-income, rural patients, since cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence is 40% higher among rural than urban residents. Health behavior counseling and follow-up care are required for patients with an elevated body mass index who have increased risk for CVD. Counseling is most effective when developed with, and tailored to, the patient and offered with resources that support healthy food intake and physical activity. Resource referral and follow-up is particular... Read More
