ENERGY METABOLISM

This study looks at how the menstrual cycle changes blood sugar and energy use in women with type 1 diabetes. Researchers will track 40 women over their cycles using a closed-loop insulin system. The goal is to understand when insulin needs change and how hormones affect glucose …

This study aims to see if a new computer algorithm can accurately measure how many calories people with movement limitations burn each day. Researchers will compare readings from a wearable accelerometer against a precise water-based test. The study involves 125 adults who can wa…

This study looks at how energy metabolism changes in people recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, or major surgery. Researchers will measure things like weight, metabolism, sleep, and movement in 80 adults aged 20-70. The goal is to use this data to build better recover…

This study looks at how ketone bodies—chemicals your liver makes when you fast or exercise—affect energy use and insulin sensitivity. Ten overweight adults aged 55-70 will receive different combinations of ketone supplements, growth hormone, or placebo on four separate days. Rese…

This study looks at medical records from 1,000 adults to understand how bones, muscles, and energy use are linked. Researchers will analyze blood and urine markers to see how they change with age and sex. The goal is to learn more about these connections, not to test a new treatm…

This study looks at how lactate, a substance produced during exercise, moves between blood plasma and red blood cells. Researchers will test 84 healthy adults, both fit and sedentary, to see how genetics and fitness level affect this process. The goal is to better understand ener…
