About this study

Official title: Lifestyles, Arterial Aging and Its Relationship With the Intestinal Microbiota (MIVAS III Study)

This is an observational cross-sectional study whose objective is to analyse associations between the intestinal and salivate microbiota with lifestyles (eating patterns, physical activity, tobacco and alcohol consumption), arterial aging and cognitive function. It will take place in five different research units located in Spain

Read the detailed description

Aim: To analyze the association of lifestyles (eating patterns, physical activity, tobacco and alcohol consumption) with the intestinal and salivate microbiota and its relationship with arterial aging and cognitive function in subjects without cardiovascular disease in Spain and Portugal. In addition, the mediating role of the intestinal microbiota in the relationship of lifestyles with arterial aging and cognitive function will be analyzed.

Design: A cross-sectional study with a case-control analysis, to analyze the association of microbiota patterns with arterial ageing. Setting: the study will develop the research network in health prevention and promotion (Rediapp) and in the Iberian network on arterial structure and the Cancer Research Center of Salamanca. Study population: 1000 subjects aged 45 to 74 years without cardiovascular disease, will be selected.

Variables: Demographic, anthropometric and habits (tobacco and alcohol). A dietary pattern through a frequency consumption questionnaire (FFQ), the software of the EVIDENT III and the Mediterranean Diet adherence questionnaire. Physical activity: International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Marshall Questionnaire and Accelerometer, Actigraph. Body composition (Inbody 230 impedance meter). Arterial aging: Medium intimate carotid thickness (Sonosite Micromax); Analysis (PWA) and pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), (Sphygmocor System). Cardio Ankle Vascular Index (CAVI), ba-PWV and ankle-brachial index (Vasera VS-2000®). With Ambulatory Pulse Wave Analysis (Microsoft®), the PAIx and CAIx and the heart rate variability will be measured. The vascular damage in the retina, heart, kidney, brain and cardiovascular risk will be measured. Intestinal microbiota with the OMNIgene GUT kit (OMR -200) and analysis of the 16S rRNA microbiome profile by massive sequentiation. (Lifestyles, arterial aging, neurocognition, microbiota)

  2. Eating habits

    Measurement by Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) (kcal/day)

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Smoking

    Measurement by a questionnaire of four questions adapted from the WHO MONICA study (Smoking status and cigarettes frequency)

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Drinking habits

    Measurement by a frequency alcohol questionnaire (units/day)

    Measured: 1 year

  5. Body composition

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Arterial Stiffness and Dysbiosis, run by Instituto de Investigación Biomédica de Salamanca at 2 sites in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pulse Wave Velocity (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04924907, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 May 2024.
