In addition the purpose is to investigate the effects on cognitive functions of the berry product.', 'detailedDescription': 'The metabolic syndrome (MetS) includes a cluster of dysfunctions that identifies subjects at risk of developing type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). A key feature appears to be chronic increased inflammation and activation of the innate system. Consequently, increased low-grade inflammation has been connected to adverse effects on insulin sensitivity, glucose- and lipid metabolism, and blood pressure, and circulating markers of inflammation such as IL-6. A growing body of evidence also link low-grade inflammation to poorer cognitive functioning. Type 2 diabetes, MetS, and glucose intolerance are increasingly being associated with impaired cognition.\n\nDietary patterns which promote sub-clinical inflammation are increasingly being considered predictive of future risk of CVD and type-2 diabetes. There is a growing insight regarding the role of the colonic micro flora in metabolic regulation and development of low-grade inflammation and obesity. The metabolic cross talk between the colon and peripheral tissues, especially adipose tissue, has been suggested to be regulated through colonic fermentation of indigestible carbohydrates e.g. dietary fibres (DF) and resistant starch. In addition, epidemiological data shows that a high consumption of vegetables and fruits is associated with a lowered risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease, which may be due to the high concentrations of polyphenols or other anti-oxidants that are found in such foods. In addition vegetables and berries are rich in dietary fibres with the potential to beneficially modulate the gut micro flora which may have implication on metabolic risk factors.\n\nIn the presently described project it is hypothesized that 5 w daily consumption of a food product containing berries and vegetables can improve metabolic risk variables and cognitive functions. The purpose is therefore to study the potential anti-inflammatory- and metabolic effects, and prebiotic properties, of a food product based on a mixture of several Swedish berries and vegetables that is known to be rich in dietary fibres, polyphenols and other anti-oxidants. In addition the purpose is to investigate the effects on cognitive functions of the food product.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '70 Years', 'minimumAge': '50 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* healthy subjects\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* fasting plasma glucose \\>6.1\n* known cognitive decline\n* other medications than for treatment of hypertension or hypothyroidism known gastro- intestinal problems'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01562392', 'briefTitle': 'Effects of Berries and Vegetables on Cardiometabolic Risk Markers and Cognitive Functions', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Lund University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effects of 5 w Daily Intake of Berries and Vegetables on Cardiometabolic Risk Markers and Cognitive Functions', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Dnr 2010/457,2011/510'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'berries and vegetables', 'description': 'subjects include specific berries and vegetables in the diet', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: berries and vegetables']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'control product', 'description': 'Control product with equivalent amounts of carbohydrates but without vegetables and berries.', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: control product']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'berries and vegetables', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': 'Daily (5 w) supplementation with specific vegetables and berries', 'armGroupLabels': ['berries and vegetables']}, {'name': 'control product', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': 'Supplementation (daily,5 w) with a control product without berries and vegetables.', 'armGroupLabels': ['control product']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'SE-22100', 'city': 'Lund', 'country': 'Sweden', 'facility': 'Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Lund University', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 55.70584, 'lon': 13.19321}}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Lund University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Anti-Diabetic Food Centre', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'PhD', 'investigatorFullName': 'Anne Nilsson', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Lund University'}}}}
