4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is designed to observe muscle oxygen saturation during intense video game using gridlock training with and without upper arm compression sleeves.
The goal of this controlled-feeding cross-over diet intervention is to compare a beef diet to a vegetarian diet on muscle fatigue in older adults. The aims are: AIM 1: To test the hypothesis that muscle fatigue is attenuated in older adults consuming beef compared to older adults consuming a plant-based diet. AIM2: To test the hypothesis that daily beef consumption improves biochemical indicators related to muscle fatigue. Participants will be randomized to consume either a beef-based diet or vegetarian diet under controlled-feeding conditions for 8 weeks. After a 2-week washout period, participants will cross-over to consume either the beef diet or vegetarian diet for 8 weeks. Body composition and functional muscle outcomes will be measured during each 8-week feeding period. Blood samples will also be collected.
This study will measure efficacy of early in-patient exercise as an adjunct to current Standard of Care (SOC) for 96 patients in a multi-centre trial. The secondary purpose is to assess the efficacy of a personalized, structured, and quantifiable exercise program (MP10) carried out soon after admission until hospital discharge (including during the BICU stay and time on ventilation).
The goal of this randomized placebo controlled crossover trial is to determine effects of oral nicotine and caffeine pouches on anaerobic performance, autonomic function, cognition, and behavior in adult non-obese adult male volunteers between ages 21 and 40. Accordingly, the primary aims of the study are to determine the effects of acute oral nicotine pouches, oral caffeine pouches, or both, on measures of * anaerobic performance * cognition * cardiovascular and autonomic function * appetite and food intake. Researchers will compare oral nicotine pouches, oral caffeine pouches, both oral nicotine and caffeine pouches, and a flavor and color matched placebo to see if how they differentially affect measurements of * physical performance, * cognition, * cardiovascular and autonomic function * appetite and food intake. On four separate occasions, participants will be asked to place the oral pouches in their mouth and complete several anerobic cycling, cognitive, and balance tests while blood and salivary biomarkers, subjective appetite ratings, and cardiovascular and autonomic function measurements are collected. After each trial, participants will complete a 24-hr food record.
