Clinical Trial: Evaluation of the Effect of a Seaweed Flour- and Leucine-Enriched Food on Metabolic and Inflammatory Status in Older Adults With Probable Sarcopenia or Sarcopenia

U.S., July 9 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07689994) titled 'Evaluation of the Effect of a Seaweed Flour- and Leucine-Enriched Food on Metabolic and Inflammatory Status in Older Adults With Probable Sarcopenia or Sarcopenia' on June 18.

Brief Summary: Sarcopenia and probable sarcopenia are associated with loss of muscle strength, functional impairment, frailty, and an increased risk of adverse outcomes in older adults. In short-term interventions, structural or functional changes may be modest, whereas certain serum biomarkers of metabolic-nutritional response may be more sensitive. In this protocol version, serum transthyretin (TTR) has been selected as the primary outcome, without assuming t...
