Common supplement tested to ease Heart-Lung strain in blood disorder

NCT ID NCT07210450

Summary

This study investigated whether adding the supplement L-glutamine to standard care could lower high blood pressure in the lung arteries of adults with a specific type of thalassemia, a genetic blood disorder. For 60 days, one group took oral L-glutamine while a control group received standard care only. Researchers used heart ultrasounds to measure lung artery pressure before and after treatment to see if the supplement made a difference.
