Optimizing the amount of dietary protein to maximally stimulate post-exercise muscle protein synthesis in elderly men.

To define the amount of dietary protein required to optimally stimulate post-exercise muscle protein synthesis in the older population.To assess whether co-ingesting 1.5 g of free leucine (contained within 15 g dairy protein) along with 15 g protein…

The effect of resveratrol on metabolism and cardiovascular risk profile in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

The overall objective is to investigate the efficacy of resveratrol in modulating metabolism and CVD risk profile in patients with COPD. The primary objective is to investigate the effect of resveratrol on CRP as clinical marker of low grade…

The impact of protein supplementation to maximize the skeletal muscle adaptive response to resistance type exercise training in healthy elderly men

Primary Objective: To examine how protein supplemented after exercise and before each night of sleep augments the resistance type exercise training-induced changes in quadriceps muscle size (CSA) in healthy elderly men. Secondary Objective:…

Protein feeding prior to sleep as a dietary strategy to improve post-exercise recovery and muscle mass in young and elderly men

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of a meal-like amount of dietary protein prior to sleep on postprandial muscle protein synthesis in healthy young and elderly men, following exercise, during the night. Furthermore, as…

The effect of plant and animal protein supplements on muscle damage: An explorative study

To investigate the impact of different types of proteins on muscle damage upon an endurance exercise bout in elderly.

A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical pharmacology study to evaluate the prevention effect and the recovery-promoting effect of a single subcutaneous administration of GYM329 on disuse muscle atrophy in healthy male volunteers.

The primary objectives for this study are:To evaluate the preventive effect of GYM329 on disuse muscle atrophy in healthy male volunteers through changes in muscle strength following a single subcutaneous administration prior to unilateral thigh and…

The effect of a single session of whole-body neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), with or without subsequent intake of a protein bolus, on whole-body protein turnover in sedated intensive care unit (ICU) patients

To examine the effect of a single session of whole-body NMES, with or without subsequent protein intake, on whole-body protein turnover

Effect of protein supplementation on fat free mass preservation after bariatric surgery, a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial.

The main aim of this study is to assess whether protein supplementation could prevent excessive fat free mass loss during the first year after bariatric surgery.

The effect of mealworm protein on muscle damage in active vital elderly

To investigate the impact of the daily consumption of a mealworm- and whey protein supplement on muscle damage upon physical exercise in vital active elderly.

Breath synchronized electrical stimulation of the abdominal wall muscles to prevent respiratory muscle atrophy during the acute stages of mechanical ventilation therapy

The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether electrical stimulation applied to the abdominal wall muscles in synchrony with exhalation can be feasible to prevent the development of atrophy of the abdominal wall muscles during the…
