Individualized exercise intervention for people with multiple myeloma improves quality of life in a randomized controlled trial

ABSTRACT: Although new treatments have improved survival for multiple myeloma (MM), quality of life remains poor for people with this incurable cancer. We conducted a multi-site randomized, waitlist-controlled trial of an individualized exercise program for people at all stages of MM (n=60). Compared to the waitlist control group, participants of the 12-week intervention had significant improvement in health-related quality of life, mediated through improved MM symptoms, cardiorespiratory fitness and bone pain, with were mostly maintained at follow-up (up to 12 months). Exploratory plasma metabolomics and lipidomics was conducted to delineate molecular mechanisms and biomarkers

Project description:Background: Despite the established relation between energy restriction and metabolic health, the most beneficial nutrient composition of a weight-loss diet is still subject of debate. Objectives: The aim of the study was to examine the additional effects of nutrient quality on top of energy restriction(ER). Methods: A parallel-designed 12-week 25%ER dietary intervention study was conducted. Participants aged 40-70 years with abdominal obesity were randomized over three groups: a 25%ER high nutrient quality diet (n = 40); a 25%ER low nutrient quality diet (n = 40); or a habitual diet (n = 30). Both ER diets were nutritionally adequate, the high nutrient quality ER diet was enriched in monounsaturated and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, fiber, and plant protein and reduced in fructose. Before and after the intervention intra-hepatic lipids, body fat distribution, fasting and postprandial responses to a mixed meal shake challenge test of cardio-metabolic risk factors, lipoproteins, vascular measurements, and adipose tissue transcriptome were assessed. Results: The high quality ER diet (-8.4 ± 3.2) induced 2.1 kg more weight loss (P = 0.007) than the low quality ER diet (-6.3 ± 3.9), reduced fasting serum total cholesterol (P = 0.014) and plasma triglycerides (P < 0.001), promoted an anti-atherogenic lipoprotein profile and induced a more pronounced decrease in adipose tissue gene expression of energy metabolism pathways than the low quality ER diet. Explorative analyses showed that the difference in weight loss between both ER diets were specifically present in insulin sensitive subjects (HOMA-IR ≤ 2.5), in whom the high nutrient quality diet induced 3.9 kg more weight loss than the low nutrient quality diet. Conclusion: A high nutrient quality 25%ER diet is more beneficial for cardiometabolic health than a low nutrient quality 25%ER diet. Overweight insulin sensitive subjects may benefit more from a high than a low nutrient quality ER diet with respect to weight loss, due to potential attenuation of glucose-induced lipid synthesis in adipose tissue.

Project description:Interventions: People aged 40 or older and who have had a recent diagnosis of a bowel condition at colonoscopy will be contacted about this study. This will include people with a main diagnosis of a small adenoma, a significant adenoma, bowel cancer of stage I, II, III or IV, or those with non-neoplastic findings such as diverticular disease or haemorrhoids. Within two weeks after colonoscopy people will be sent a letter inviting them to take part in a questionnaire at this time point and again 12 months later. The questionnaire contains four sections. Section A mainly includes questions about health conditions and any treatment that the person may have received in the past 12 months. Section B contains questions about health-related quality of life and wellbeing. Section C contains questions on attitudes towards managing health. Section D includes questions about the person’s background. If the questionnaire is not returned within two weeks then research staff will make telephone contact with the invitees to follow-up and confirm their willingness or otherwise to participate in the study. Another sub-group of participants will now be included in this study, to capture more information about the quality of life (QOL) from individuals who have completed treatment for colorectal adenocarcinoma (stages I, II, III, IV). A single questionnaire will be offered to individuals who are within 3 years post-surgery/neoadjuvant therapy, after a colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis. Primary outcome(s): The primary outcome will be the quality of life in people who have been diagnosed with a bowel condition. This will be assessed by questionnaire using existing surveys- a generic preference-based health related quality of life instrument (the EQ-5D-5L), a cancer-specific quality of life instrument (the EORTC QLQ-C30) and a widely used subjective wellbeing measure (the Satisfaction with Life Scale).[This will be assessed via questionnaire within two weeks and 12 months after colonoscopy.]

Project description:The purpose of this study is to learn about Health-related Quality Of Life (HRQoL) in patients enrolled in the Rare Kidney Stone Consortium (RKSC) registries. Quality of life studies look at different aspects of both physical and mental components of people's lives. HRQoL data for people affected by kidney stones are not currently available for people followed over time. All participants enrolled in the RKSC registries will be invited, via email or postal mail, to participate in this study. Health-related quality of life in people with rare kidney stones enrolled in the RKSC registries will be measured. Instruments used in this study are the SF-10 for pediatric participants and SF-36v2 for adult participants. The surveys will be completed online. Participants without a computer or internet access will participate using a paper version of the survey. These surveys will be done at enrollment and annually thereafter. The SF-36v2 includes 36 questions and is estimated to take 15 minutes for its completion, while the SF-10 includes 10 questions and could be completed in 5 minutes. The research questions are: <OL> <Li> Assessment of HRQoL in patients with rare kidney stones. Comparison of HRQoL results between rare kidney stone formers, general population and other populations with relevant chronic diseases.</Li> <Li> Comparison of HRQoL results in the same populations affected by different stones and analyzed with attention to the effects of various factors included in the disease registry, such as stone activity, burden of urologic interventions, medication and other treatments.</Li> <Li> Evaluation of HRQoL and its trends over time in patients undergoing treatment for rare kidney stones.</Li> </OL> About this study: The plan is to have 400 participants from all four registries take part in this multi-center study. The assessment of your HRQoL will be done annually for 5 years.

Project description:Sexual maturation causes loss of fish muscle mass and deterioration of fillet quality attributes that prevent market purpose. We recently showed that fillet yield and flesh quality are recovered in female trout after spawning. To gain insights into the molecular mechanisms regulating flesh quality recovery we conducted a time-course analysis of large-scale gene expression in trout muscle from spawning to 33 weeks post-spawning. Using an Agilent-based microarray plate-form, we identified about 5500 unique genes that were differentially expressed during the post-spawning period. These genes segregated into four major clusters with distinct temporal expression profile and functional categories. A first cluster containing around 2000 genes down-regulated after 4 weeks after spawning was enriched in genes linked to mitochondrial ATP synthesis, fatty acid catabolism and proteolysis. A second cluster comprising about 1200 genes with early and transient induction between 2 to 8 weeks post-spawning was enriched in genes involved in RNA processing, translation, ribosome biogenesis and protein folding. A third cluster containing about 700 genes up-regulated from 4 weeks post-spawning onwards was enriched in genes encoding ribosomal subunits or regulating translation and cell cycle. At last a fourth cluster which contained about 1000 genes with late up-regulation from 13 weeks post- spawning onwards, was dominated by genes encoding myofibrillar proteins and matricial components and genes involved in glycolysis. On the whole our study indicates that muscle tissue restoration and flesh quality recovery occurring after spawning is mainly associated with anaerobic ATP production, muscle fibre hypertrophic growth, fatty acid metabolism and extracellular matrix remodelling. The generation of the first database of genes associated with post-spawning muscle recovery will allow future mechanistic studies and facilitate identification of genetic markers for fish muscle yield and quality traits.
