Association between Dietary Intake and Coronary Artery Calcification in Non-Dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease: The PROGREDIR Study
Abstract: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a widespread condition in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Diet may play an important role in CAC, but this role is not clear. This study evaluated the association between macro-and micronutrient intakes and CAC in non-dialysis CKD patients. We analyzed the baseline data from 454 participants of the PROGREDIR ...
Amino Acid Medical Foods Provide a High Dietary Acid Load and Increase Urinary Excretion of Renal Net Acid, Calcium, and Magnesium Compared with Glycomacropeptide Medical Foods in Phenylketonuria
Introduction
PKU (PKU; OMIM 261600) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by high Phe concentrations in blood
due to mutations in the gene which encodes phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH; EC 1.14.16.1). PAH catalyzes the hepatic conversion of Phe to Tyr using tetrahydrobiopterin as ...
Suplementação com colágeno como terapia complementar na prevenção e tratamento de osteoporose e osteoartrite: uma revisão sistemática
Resumo
Introdução: O colágeno hidrolisado é reconhecido como um nutracêutico seguro, cuja combinação de aminoácidos estimula a síntese de colágeno nas cartilagens e na matriz extracelular de outros tecidos. Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão sistemática da literatura
sobre a ação do colágeno hidrolisado no tecido ósseo e cartilaginoso e ...
Specific Collagen Peptides Improve Bone Mineral Density and Bone Markers in Postmenopausal Women—A Randomized Controlled Study
Abstract: Introduction: Investigations in rodents as well as in vitro experiments have suggested an anabolic influence of specific collagen peptides (SCP) on bone formation and bone mineral density (BMD). The goal of the study was to investigate the effect of 12-month daily oral administration of 5 g SCP vs. placebo (CG: control group) on BMD in postmenopausal ...
Revisión de los efectos beneficiosos de la ingesta de colágeno hidrolizado sobre la salud osteoarticular y el envejecimiento dérmico
Abstract
Introduction: hydrolysate Collagen (HC) consists of small peptides with a molecular weight lower than 5.000 Da. produced from gelatinization and subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of native collagen which is found in rich collagenic animal tissues. There is much evidence about the HC ingestion positive effect over degenerative joint and bones ...
Improvement of activity-related knee joint discomfort following supplementation of specific collagen peptides
Abstract: The aim of the study was to evaluate the use of specific collagen peptides in reducing pain in athletes with functional
knee problems during sport. Athletic subjects (n = 139) with functional knee pain ingested 5 g of bioactive collagen peptides (BCP)
or a placebo per day for 12 weeks. The primary outcome of the study was a change in pain intensity during activity, which ...
IMPACT OF STATIN THERAPY ON COLLAGEN TURNOVER AND LEFT VENTRICLE FUNCTION AFTER ST-ELEVATION MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION: A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL
Background: Chronic statin treatment reduces extracellular proteolysis and extracellular matrix remodeling impacting in myocardial
functional and structural parameters. However, it remains unclear whether early statin use after myocardial infarction (MI) reduces leftventricular (LV) adverse remodeling and diastolic dysfunction by affecting extrace...
Impact of collagen hydrolysate in middle-aged athletes with knee and ankle osteochondral lesions:
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Osteochondral lesions (OCL) are a significant issue among professional and amateur athletes in several sports modalities. Lack of treatment or inadequate therapy may aggravate the symptoms and jeopardize the chance of a complete functional recovery. Multidisciplinary treatment is the mainstay of OCL, including physiotherapy, physical rehabilitation with aerobic and ...
