Walking program for children with PKU and fatty liver
Part of Brain & nervous system, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a walking program can help children with PKU who also have fatty liver and obesity. It aims to see if regular walking improves liver health and overall fitness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your child must be obese (as determined by a doctor).
- Your child must have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
- Your child must not have heart disease, diabetes, or nerve disorders.

This trial tests whether a simple walking program can help people who have both obstructive sleep apnea and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. If you have these conditions and a BMI under 35, you may be able to join a free exercise program to see if it improves your health.
This study looks at how nutrition affects risk factors in adults with PKU (a condition that requires a special diet to control certain blood chemicals). If you can manage your diet independently and agree to follow the study diet plan, this may help researchers find better nutritional approaches.
This study looks at whether following specific care guidelines for phenylketonuria (PKU) leads to better metabolic control (blood phenylalanine levels) and better patient well-being. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and follow the study plan while receiving the usual PKU treatment your clinic recommends.
This study tests whether a specific mix of large neutral amino acids (LNAAs) can help adults with classical PKU by lowering phenylalanine levels in the brain. It includes an MRI and PET scan to see how the treatment affects brain activity.
This study compares two exercise programs to see which works better for people with fatty liver disease and obesity. It may help improve liver health through different workout styles.
This study looks at how different meals eaten before exercise affect amino acid levels and metabolic health in adults with classic phenylketonuria (PKU)—a genetic condition affecting how your body processes protein. The research involves eating test meals, exercising, and providing blood samples to help understand the best nutritional approach for PKU patients.
