In most pediatric medical conditions, tremendous progress in pediatrics has significantly improved the overall prognosis and transferred the mortality from childhood to adulthood. Nevertheless, chronic diseases remain the leading cause of death and physical inactivity appears to be a major aggravating factor. Yet, a good physical activity has a positive impact on quality of life and prevents future health morbidities, such as obesity and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, after focusing on the survival of children with chronic diseases, more attention is being given to health-related quality of life and secondary prevention. In this context, the cardio-pulmonary exercise test (CPET), which is a non-invasive and dynamic examination, has become the gold standard to identify subjects with impaired physical capacity and to identify the causes of their limitations (muscular, cardiac, respiratory, behavioral, etc.). Moreover, CPET is the key examination to enroll patients in personalized physical rehabilitation programs (muscle deconditioning, respiratory limitation, etc.). Despite a growing interest in CPET and individualized rehabilitation programs for chronic diseases, the investigators still face the lack of reference values for pediatric CPET. In current practice, many CPET pediatric laboratories use the reference values of maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) defined by Cooper et al. in 1984, from a cohort of 109 healthy children. However, their equations are linear and based on weight only. Non linear equations and the use of other anthropometric variables may be relevant in pediatrics. For instance, in the current era, normal CPET pediatric values should consider the prevalence of overweight and obesity in childhood general population (respectively 30% and 10% in Europa and 35% and 25% in North America), as well as in the population of children with chronic disease. In the past decade, our group has developed a research program on physical capacity in children, with a focus on pediatric CPET and physical rehabilitation, from a cohort of nearly 1000 exercise tests in children. The lack of reliable pediatric reference values for VO2max, and all CPET variables as well, has become an important issue. In this study, the investigators aim to define pediatric reference CPET values from a large cohort of 6 to 17 year-old children, using several anthropometric variables to define the most appropriate Z-scores equations (part 1). The investigators will also validate the Z-scores equations using an independent population (part 2).
The primary objective was to investigate the effectiveness of interval training and to evaluate the best available method for measuring body composition and functional capacity. Thirty obese subjects consecutively voluntarily participated in the current study. They ranked sedentary according to their level of activity (≥ 30-minute moderate physical activity 3days/wk). The training sessions were divided into the warm-up phase, training phase and a cool-down phase. The training programs were completed 3days/week for 12 weeks. Body composition was calculated by skinfold thickness method and bio-impedance before and after training. Similarly, aerobic capacities were measured by lactate threshold testing and by Astrand submaximal testing.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial to evaluate the effect and safety of Liraglutide Injection on body weight loss compared with placebo in obese or overweight adult patients with comorbidity of metabolic disorders.
This study aims to validate and pilot test the short-term intervention effect of a newly developed healthy metabolic behaviour tool, named as the 6P tool, on dietary attitude/ practice and body weight changes over one month among overweight and obese women. A total of 50 women, aged 21-40 years, BMI ≥25 kg/m2, who are attending the preconception clinic and planning for a pregnancy over the next one year, will be invited to participate in this pilot study. The recruitment period is estimated to take up to 10 weeks, with subsequent 1 month follow-up visit.
From the beginning of March 2020, lockdown regimens prevented patients with obesity from receiving bariatric surgery. Surgical emergencies and oncological procedures were the only operations allowed in public hospitals. Consequently, patients with morbid obesity were put in a stand-by situation. With the aim at exploring physical and psychological conditions of the investigators future bariatric surgery patients, the investigators built a Questionnaire concerning obesity and COVID-19.
This study aims to investigate whether maximum cold-induced non-shivering thermogenesis (e.g. thermogenesis as a consequence of BAT activity) differs between morning and evening.
This is a 12-week, randomized nutritional intervention study to determine the effect of legumes consumption on body weight in obese subjects.
