Filter by:We aimed to investigate visceral adiposity index (VAI) in patients with different phenotype of policystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to compare healthy controls.
Obesity is an increasing global public health issue. In general, tea consumption have been shown to offer benefit to obese patients. However, the potential of white tea (WT) to treat and protect from the adverse effects of obesity have not been addressed so far. The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy and impact WT consumption highest in catechins on levels of anthropometric and biochemical values in obese patients.
United Kingdom National Bariatric Surgery Registry (NBSR) records between 1st June 2017 and 23rd November 2022 were used to identify people undergoing primary bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. People undergoing primary bariatric (weight-loss) surgery with one baseline and at least one follow-up visit within one year from surgery were included. Statistical models were used to estimate the relationship between quality of life as assessed by a questionnaire and body mass index at baseline and over time.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in the effect of different lifestyle interventions in overweight and obese participants. The main questions it aims to answer are: - effect on anthropometric measurements - effect on lipid profile - effect on weight-related quality of life - observe the differences between interventions The study participants were stratified into three groups: intervention, control-1, and control-2. - Intervention group: They were given a calorie-restricted diet and exercise plan by a dietician or physiotherapist at their first visit, and were followed up by telephone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over 12 weeks. - Control-1 group: During the initial medical interview, the participants were given a calorie-restricted diet programme by a dietician and an exercise programme by a physiotherapist; they were followed up over 12 weeks with telephone calls at week 4. - Control-2 group: The participants were not provided with any programme, and the importance of weight loss was emphasised by the family physicians. Dietary and physical activity advice was given according to the recommendations in the Turkish Endocrine and Metabolism Association 2019 Obesity Diagnosis and Treatment Guide, and was followed up with phone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over a 12-weeks.
This study will determine the combine effects of focused ultrasound cavitation augmented with aerobic exercises. This research could be helpful for the patients who prefer such treatments to make a wise decision that either aerobic exercises in combination with cavitation is the better and much safer treatment option to maintain healthy life.
A key area of obesity research has focused on the link between appetite, energy balance and weight control. Within this area, several appetite-related hormones and cellular cytokines have been identified as key signals influencing appetite and food intake. This includes the appetite-suppressing hormone oxyntomodulin (OXM) and a cellular stress-induced cytokine growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15). The aims of this study are: (1) to investigate the effect of acute moderate-intensity continuous exercise on oxyntomodulin and GDF-15 concentrationsÍž (2) to investigate whether exercise-induced changes in circulating OXM and GDF-15 concentrations are correlated with subjective appetite perceptions and subsequent energy intake.
The obesities were aimed at the effect of whole wheat (WWB), buckwheat (BWB), and cornbread (CB) on blood glucose by comparing the glycemic index values with reference bread (RB). Overall, WWB consumption had a positive effect on blood glucose in individuals with obesity, while BWB consumption caused an increase in blood glucose levels.
We aimed to compare the oral health status (dmft/DMFT index, IDCAS-II, BEWE, plaque index, gingival index, probing depth) between normal-weight (NW) and obese (OW) children/adolescents. 82 participants aged 6-16 years were concluded in this cross-sectional study. The children/adolescents were classified according to the body mass index (BMI): NW (n=41) and OW (n=41). Caries experience was assessed by the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-II), decay, missing, filling teeth (dmft) for the primary teeth and (DMFT) for the permanent teeth, erosive tooth wear using Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE), Plaque Index (PI) and Gingival Index (GI), Probing Depth (PD).
This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of the Zélé program, a controlled ketogenic diet, for weight loss and maintenance. It involved a randomized clinical trial with participants aged 18-60, BMI between 30-34.9 kg/m², and no severe health issues
The goal of this randomized control trial is to compare the effect of a liquid formula rich in nutrients and low in calories (supplement) with the progressive diet with conventional foods that we usually recommend in patients after surgery. The main question it aims to answer is if the addition of a high-protein, volume-controlled nutritional supplement as a fundamental part of the diet during the first two months after surgery will preserve the patient's nutritional status and prevent the appearance of nutritional deficits and associated complications. Participants will be evaluated at the beginning, at 1 month and at the end of the study (2m) and the following determinations will be made: - Analytical determination - Nitrogen balance by determining urea N2 in 24-hour urine - Anthropometric determinations - Body composition determined by impedanciometry - Resting energy expenditure and nutrient oxidation measured by indirect calorimetry. - Energy, protein and hydration intake. - Gastrointestinal tolerance through self-registration of symptoms. Researchers will compare the effect of a complete hypocaloric liquid formula group with the usual progressive diet group to see if they achieve the protein intake goal established for patients after obesity surgery, preservation of nutritional status and lean mass during the rapid phase of weight loss and the gastrointestinal tolerance during the first two months after surgery.
