Filter by:In obese patients, the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is around 40% in men and 30% in women. Weight loss after bariatric surgery significantly improves OSA, with 75% of patients having a reduction in OSA severity or becoming non-apneic. We hypothesize a similar effect on OSA of nutritional and psychocomportemental rehabilitation for obese patients. However, we expect weight loss and blood pressure reduction to probably be lower in obese patients who have OSA and nutritional rehabilitation alone than in those who are treated for their OSA or are without OSA. To address this question, we will conduct an observational study on obese patients, treated or not for OSA, following nutritional and psychocomportemental rehabilitation.
The primary objective of STAR01 is to evaluate the performance and safety of the medical device (class IIb) SiPore15™ after a 12-week long treatment in the target population of obese and overweight subjects with prediabetes or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The expected performance and safety of the device is based on the safety and efficacy results seen in an earlier First-in-Man (FIM) study. The safety and tolerability of SiPore15™ is based on the well-established and extensive use of food grade silicon dioxide and favorable data from the FIM study. Data on side-effects will be collected for verification of device safety. The study duration is 24 weeks in total, 12 weeks from baseline on investigational medicinal device (IMD) treatment, with additional 12 weeks off treatment. The study population is planned for forty (40) subjects to be enrolled, male and females, age >18 years and fulfilling all inclusion criteria but none of the exclusion criteria.
The goal of this study is to test whether the mobile application (app.) helps adolescents make healthy food choices, decreasing calories purchased from restaurants, fewer number of visits to restaurants, and if it has an impact on their body mass index (BMI). Eligible adolescents will be enrolled in the study along with a parent for approximately 6 months.
the present study aimed to follow up our participants in order to consider the changes in weight and anthropometric measurements after the 12-month weight maintenance as well as the total of 18 months, consisting of the previously described 24 weeks active weight loss and a further 53 weeks weight maintenance. The secondary outcome was to compare the abdominal adiposity, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism during these periods.
This study aims to determine whether the use of Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's) regulate insulin and glucagon secretion, and whether the supplement has any effect on body weight and body composition. Subjects who participate in this study will receive an 8-week supply of supplement. The study supplements will be manufactured by Scientific Living, in Irvine, CA for high dose BCAA and the low dose BCAA is manufactured by Nutribiotic, Lakeport, CA. Timed blood collections will be used to measure how BCAA affect glucose metabolism/insulin sensitivity in human subjects.
The purpose of this study is to find out why people do or do not eat vegetables.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of a novel home-based high-intensity interval training (Home-HIT) intervention in obese individuals, with elevated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. It was hypothesised that Home-HIT would 1) have high adherence to the prescribed exercise intensity (compliance), 2) improve markers of CVD risk, and 3) lead to favourable skeletal muscle adaptations.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of overnight fasting versus a diurnal fasting (during daily life activities) in females with and without obesity on inflammation, neurotrophins, energy metabolism, mood, food cravings, and appetite sensations. This study will be an acute fasting intervention.
