This European trial tests a 24-week lifestyle program for 400 night-shift workers. The program, delivered via a mobile app and workshops, focuses on sleep, stress, diet, and exercise. The goal is to see if it helps workers sleep longer and improve their health.

This trial tests whether a protein-rich diet combined with supervised resistance exercise can improve recovery in older adults who have had a hip fracture. Participants will follow this program for three months, and researchers will measure changes in physical function, muscle ma…

This study tests whether a single session of whole-body electrical muscle stimulation, with or without a dose of amino acids, can improve protein balance in sedated ICU patients on ventilators. Thirty adults will be split into three groups: sham stimulation, real stimulation, or …

This study tests whether a drink containing caprylic acid and omega-3 fatty acids can help muscles recover strength after a tough workout. Twenty-eight healthy young men will take the supplement for seven days and do a muscle-damaging exercise. Researchers will measure muscle str…

This study looks at how non-nutritive sweeteners (like those in diet drinks) affect blood sugar control, gut bacteria, and hunger hormones in healthy adults aged 45-79. Over 6 weeks, participants will consume sweeteners or a control, and researchers will measure changes using glu…

This study investigates how the body processes glucose after a high-sugar meal in lean individuals and those with obesity. Participants drink a tiny, safe amount of radioactive glucose so researchers can trace exactly where the sugar goes—into breath, urine, or stool—and measure …

This study investigates how two days of forearm immobilization (keeping the arm in a cast or sling) changes the way muscles take up glucose and amino acids. Researchers will compare these effects in people with type 2 diabetes and healthy volunteers. The goal is to understand why…
