Effect of intravenous L-carnitine on growth parameters and fat metabolism during parenteral nutrition in neonates

This randomized controlled trial investigated the effects of intravenous L-carnitine supplementation on plasma carnitine levels, fatigue, and exercise capacity in hemodialysis patients over 24 weeks. L-carnitine significantly increased plasma carnitine concentrations and was associated with a smaller decline in peak oxygen consumption (VO₂max) compared to placebo (-0.05 ± 0.19 vs.

Intravenous L-carnitine increases plasma carnitine, reduces fatigue, and may preserve exercise capacity in hemodialysis patients

This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of intravenous L-carnitine supplementation on fatigue and exercise capacity in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis. Patients received L-carnitine at doses of 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, or 40 mg/kg thrice weekly for 24 weeks. While primary analysis showed no significant improvement

Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Mitochondrial Respiration and Physical Performance in Middle-Aged Athletes: A Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial

This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial examined the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on mitochondrial function and physical performance in 37 healthy middle-aged master athletes. Participants underwent 40 sessions of either HBOT (2 absolute atmospheres (ATA), breathing 100% oxygen for 1 hour) or a sham treatment (1.02 ATA, breathing air
