Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study was to assess the impact of a physician-supervised non-surgical medical weight management program on prevalence of metabolic syndrome and to examine the relationship between program retention and levels of key indicators of metabolic syndrome among participants that self-enrolled to the program. A total of 479 overweight or obese participants aged 19 years or older were observed. The revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) criteria were used to define metabolic syndrome.


Description:

Each individual self-enrolled to a physician-supervised non-surgical weight management program, hereafter referred to as the Program. They received a weight loss intervention as a part of routine medical care in the Program. At the end of their first consultation, each individual that met the inclusion criteria and failed to meet the exclusion criteria was asked if he or she would like to join the study. Each individual was informed that the study would not change the type or level of care that he or she would receive while enrolled to the program; however, researchers would be studying the effects of their care through additional screenings. Individuals who thereafter signed an informed consent form were monitored for changes in health outcomes without change to the Program.

This study was observational. Health outcomes were assessed in individuals that predefined their program status (i.e., enrolled or not enrolled). Each participant received routine medical care, and the investigators studied the effects of the intervention. No new intervention or intervention specific to participants only was assigned.

Intervention

Behavioral:
Physician-supervised nonsurgical weight management program
Participants of a physician-supervised nonsurgical weight management program were observed as they received weekly in-person coaching sessions with licensed clinicians. In-person coaching sessions were focused on educating participants on strategies to manage their weight and adopt a healthy lifestyle. Prescribed diets were individualized based on each participant's behavior, level of physical activity, and total energy expenditure. Supplements, appetite suppressant medications, and compounded injections were used to control appetite and/or boost energy during a period of low-caloric intake. The program was generally divided into three phases: Acute, Short-Term Maintenance, and Wellness.

Secondary Components of metabolic syndrome at week 13 - change in waist circumference (cm) Baseline waist circumference data were compared with week 13 waist circumference data. Waist circumference was measured at the narrowest point of hip area or the midpoint between the lower costal (10th rib) border and the iliac crest (upper hip bone). Waist circumference data were collected in inches, and converted to cm according to the journal's requirements. 13 weeks from first visit
Secondary Components of metabolic syndrome at week 26 - change in waist circumference (cm) Baseline waist circumference data were compared with week 26 waist circumference data. Waist circumference was measured at the narrowest point of hip area or the midpoint between the lower costal (10th rib) border and the iliac crest (upper hip bone). Waist circumference data were collected in inches, and converted to cm according to the journal's requirements. 26 weeks from first visit
Secondary Components of metabolic syndrome at week 39 - change in waist circumference (cm) Baseline waist circumference data were compared with week 39 waist circumference data.

Waist circumference data were collected in inches, and converted to cm according to the journal's requirements. 39 weeks from first visit
Secondary Components of metabolic syndrome at week 52 - change in waist circumference (cm) Baseline waist circumference data were compared with week 52 waist circumference data.
