The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tributyrin can help prevent or mitigate cognitive decline in individuals with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD). The trial will also examine the safety and effects of tributyrin on inflammation and gut microbiota. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does tributyrin improve cognitive function in patients with mild AD? Does tributyrin reduce inflammation and oxidative stress? How does tributyrin affect gut microbiota and intestinal permeability? Researchers will compare tributyrin to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no active ingredient) to evaluate its effectiveness.
Participants will:
Take tributyrin or a placebo every day for 12 weeks. Undergo assessments of cognitive function, blood markers (such as BDNF and GFAP), and gut health.
The findings are expected to provide insight into the potential of tributyrin as a preventive intervention for Alzheimer's disease.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of telerehabilitation versus a face-to-face program in the therapeutic approach to non-specific neck pain through exercise and analgesic electrotherapy.
Methods: Randomized clinical trial on 100 participants with nonspecific neck pain who will be randomized into two groups to receive analgesic electrotherapy combined with a cervical exercise program through telemedicine or face to face. A total of 20 sessions will be applied over 8 weeks. Demographic and clinical data, disability, pain intensity, kinesiophobia, isometric spinal muscle strength, quality of life, and cervical mobility will be collected. Assessments will be performed at the beginning of the study (baseline), at 8 weeks (post-treatment) and 6 months after the end of the intervention (follow-up).

This phase of the project aims to compare in-person, supervised educational programs (EP) with online self-guided EPs in individuals with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. A total of 75 participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: a supervised and individualized educational program focused on HIIT training, a supervised and individualized educational program focused on strength training, and a non-supervised, self-guided educational program based on resistance band training. Additionally, sessions on the Mediterranean diet (both supervised and non-supervised) and cognitive-behavioral interventions will be included. A control evaluation will be conducted three months after the intervention to assess the effects of the educational programs, followed by another evaluation three months later to analyze residual effects. Women who participated in Phase 1 of the study will be invited to take part in this second phase.
