ENERGY METABOLISM

This study looks at medical records from 1000 adults to understand how bones, muscles, and energy use are linked. Researchers will analyze blood and urine tests for markers like osteocalcin and vitamin D. The goal is to see how these markers change with age and sex, and to build …

This study looks at how ketone bodies—chemicals your liver makes when you fast or exercise—affect how your body uses energy and responds to insulin. Ten overweight adults aged 55–70 will each try four different treatments (including a ketone drink and a placebo) on separate days.…

This study watches how the body burns energy in people recovering from stroke, brain injury, or major surgery. Researchers will measure things like metabolism, sleep, walking, and brain activity in 80 adults. The goal is to build computer models that predict each person's energy …

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 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…
