Filter by:Due to the rising problem of overweight and obesity, many strategies are implemented to combat this issue and one of the most common ways is exercise training. Aerobic exercise is a popular and effective conservative strategy for weight and adiposity management and commonly used exercise protocols are moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and interval training (IT). MICT is typically defined as continuous effort that elicits 55%-70% of the maximal heart rate or promotes oxygen consumption equivalent to 40%-60% of the maximum oxygen intake. IT involves repeated exercise with periods of recovery, which includes high intensity interval training (HIIT) and Sprint interval training (SIT). HIIT is exercising at 80% to 100% of maximal heart rate while SIT involves "all-out" or "supramaximal" effort at the intensity of 100% of maximal oxygen uptake. Multiple systematic reviews on the effect of SIT on aerobic capacity or comparisons between other forms of exercise protocols to reduce body adiposity has been conducted, but so far no systematic review has been carried out to evaluate the efficacy of this protocol solely on anthropometric measures on young obese and overweight adults alone. Hence, in this study, a systematic review of the effect of SIT on anthropometric measurements in young obese or overweight adults will be reviewed, filtered and assembled.
Randomized, double blind, parallel study to assess the effect of a dietary supplement combining polyphenols (hydroxycinnamates from green coffee) and a soluble dietary fiber (oat beta-glucans) in obese/overweight subjects.
The study was aimed at comparing four different anthropometric parameters to cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight and obese subjects (Body Mass Index (BMI)≥25)
This study aims to investigate the potential effects of the administration of hydroxytyrosol, which is an extra virgin olive oil phenolic compound, in doses 15 milligrams and 5 milligrams daily versus placebo for 6 months in anthropometric parameters such as body weight, body fat and visceral fat, in combination with diet, in overweight and obese women.
A total of 52 overweight children aged between eight and sixteen years will be recruited by criterion based purposive sampling to participate in the two groups pretest post test randomized clinical study. Random allocation of the eligible subjects for treatment will be done by the block randomization method with matrix of thirteen rows and four columns (13x4). The subject will be allotted to the group randomly, based on the chit selected by the person other the primary researcher.Once the block is filled, the next row block will be opened. Thus equal distribution of overweight children in the each group will be ensured. Group A will be receiving actual core stability training (Level 1 - Mat exercises and Level 2 - Swiss Ball exercises) for 6 weeks with a frequency of three sessions per week.Group B will receive no training. Each session will last for 30 minutes of duration. The static and dynamic balance, foot pressure distribution and core strength will be assessed at the baseline and at the end of the treatment sessions.
The purpose of this research study is to examine how well an existing weight loss treatment works for individuals with food addiction. Treatment will consist of a preliminary 12-week RCT pilot of the feasibility and effectiveness of behavioral weight loss (BWL) compared to a waitlist control.
The main purpose of this study is to measure the effect of tirzepatide on food intake in participants who are overweight or very overweight. The study will also use imaging to learn more about how tirzepatide affects specific parts of the brain. The effect of tirzepatide on appetite will also be studied. The study will last up to about four months and will include up to 14 visits to the study center.
The purpose of this research is to determine the blood signals that promote health and well-being in response to exercise at different intensities.
The overall aim of this research is to investigate the acute effects of resistance exercise (REx) on the hormonal and behavioral indices of energy balance regulation in breast cancer survivors. This pilot study is designed to provide preliminary data to support future exercise interventions with more comprehensive energy balance profiling.
The investigators will aim to determine the association of mood disorders (MDO) with preclinical and clinical cardiovascular (CVD) risk factors among children. The investigators will also aim to identify traditional and non traditional predictors of CVD risk among children with MDO.
