Filter by:The general purpose of the study was to provide new information about the role of macronutrients intake, metabolomics, proteomics and microRNA on BAT activation. The invesigator evaluated BAT activity and whole body energy consumption under cold stimulation in two gruops of healthy males aged 21-43 years old with normal BMI ( 19-25kg/m2) and in overweight/obese subjects.
The goal of this study is to investigate whether an early intraoperative transverse abdominis plane block (TAP block) will provide superior analgesia to a late intraoperative TAP block. A fixed amount of bupivacaine will be used for the TAP block and the primary outcomes will be measured by patient reported numerical assessment scores for pain.
The aim of the present study was to specifically screen obese diabetic adolescent female individuals for BED, checking the variants of the GR gene (rs56149945; rs41423247) amongst identified individuals, and this led to assessing the impact of binge eating disorders on glycaemic control in obese diabetic adolescent females in Pakistan, South Asia.
Obesity can be defined as' a disease that occurs as a result of the energy (calorie) taken with food being more than the energy consumed and the excess energy being stored as fat in the body, negatively affecting the quality and duration of life. BMI is calculated by dividing the weight (kg) by the square of the height (m2) (1,2). According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, BMI between 25-29.9 kg / m2 is overweight, 30-34.9 kg / m2 is light, 35-39.9 kg / m2 is medium, 40 kg / m2 and above is considered as severe obesity. Obesity has important effects on respiratory function. These mechanical and biochemical effects are not easily measured by pulmonary function test and BMI measurement.Changes caused by mediators produced by adipose tissue likely cause changes in lung function, but this effect is not fully understood at the moment. The aim of our study is to make these effects more understandable and to compare them with different obesity classes and people with normal weight who are considered healthy. Hypothesis 0: The effects of obesity on respiratory functions and multidimensional health-related parameters do not show a statistically significant difference compared to individuals with different levels of the disease and normal weight individuals classified as healthy. Hypothesis 1: The effects of obesity on respiratory functions and multidimensional health-related parameters show a statistically significant difference compared to people with different levels of the disease and normal weight individuals classified as healthy. The study will be carried out by face-to-face evaluations in a clinical setting with obese patients between the ages of 18-65 who have applied to the clinic with a diagnosis of obesity and agree to participate in the study, and healthy volunteers who are considered to be healthy without a diagnosis of obesity. Looking at the evaluations to be made; Measurement of respiratory function parameters, measurement of respiratory muscle strength, anthropometric measurements, evaluation of body composition, quality of life, upper extremity muscle strength and grip strength, lower extremity muscle strength, fatigue evaluation, vital signs, evaluation of exercise perception, presence of dyspnea and its level will be evaluated. A detailed description of these evaluations and the parameters to be used will be explained in detail in the next step.
A multicenter, prospective, single-arm, open-label, controlled clinical trial aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EndoZip system procedure, coupled with lifestyle modifications, for weight reduction in obese patients with BMI of 30-40 kg/m2.
Obesity is commonly described as a consequence of excess calorie intake. Conventionally, the physiological variables that have been of extensive interest are food intake and energy expenditure. Despite decades of research on factors influencing intake and expenditure, to date, no compelling theory has been promulgated to explain why certain humans are more susceptible to weight gain than others. The investigators hypothesize that the measure of an individual's fraction of energy mobilized or deposited as protein (P-ratio), contributes towards an obese morphology and may essentially form a novel approach in understanding the etiology, management and treatment of obesity. In addition, there is a general perception that the consumption of sugar sweetened foods and beverages are one of the major causes of obesity. This study aims to understand metabolic flexibility and the glycemic index of diets in the etiology of obesity. Individual metabolic flexibility may be the key factor that predisposes an individual to obesity. This study is carried out to determine the P-ratio in human subjects.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot trial of a mobile intervention that targets obesity and binge eating.
The purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of a microbiome diet using direct food provision on dietary quality and microbiome composition among children with obesity. This study proposes a pilot randomized, controlled clinical trial in children of a dietary intervention informed by microbiome science.
This study aims to examine the effects of dietary intervention combined with physical-cognitive exergaming on cognitive performance and circulating biomarkers of obese postmenopausal women. It is hypothesized that participants will demonstrate significant improvement in cognitive performance and circulating biomarkers after participating in this combined program compared to baseline and the dietary and control groups.
This two-arm, double blind, randomized clinical trial will compare the effect of an avocado extract, compared to placebo, on cardiometabolic outcomes in adults with obesity.
