The aim of the study is to investigate how glycemia and ketonemia variations during three different diet protocols: a ketogenic diet without any restriction on calories intake (KD), a calorie-restricted ketogenic-mediterranean diet (KEMEPHY) and a calorie-restricted mediterranean diet (MD) affect appetite, executive functions and mood in overweight young women.
The major aim of the proposed study is to develop a gender-sensitive individually tailored add-on intervention that focusses on improving individual gender-specific SIRs (subjective illness representations) in obese or overweight individuals. We will investigate whether this will improve compliance with and long-term success of common weight loss interventions. The effectiveness of this intervention in every-day-life with regard to weight-related behavioral changes and weight loss will be evaluated within a randomized controlled setting.To enhance the applicability of the intervention in every-day-life and its dissemination we plan to develop a smart-phone-based intervention.
The study looks at how the study medicine affects the level in the blood of a birth control pill. The study also looks at how the study medicine affects the duration of emptying of the stomach. Participants will get 1 injection of study medicine once a week for 12 weeks by a study nurse at the clinic. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach. In addition, participants will get 1 birth control pill per day for 8 days before the first dose of the study medicine and again after 10 weeks of dosing with the study medicine. Participants will also get a dose of acetaminophen before the first dose of the study medicine and again after 10 weeks of dosing with the study medicine. Acetaminophen is a mild painkiller but used here to assess the emptying of the stomach. The study will last for about 9 months, but participants will only be in the study for about 6 months. Participants will have 17 clinic visits with the study staff and some will be overnight visits. There will also be 3 phone calls with the study staff. At all visits, participants will have blood drawn along with other clinical assessments. Participants will be asked about their health, diseases and habits including mental health questionnaires. Participants must not be able to become pregnant if they want to participate in the study.
This study will look at participants' body weight from the start to the end of the study. The study will last for about 1½ years. This is to compare the effect on body weight in people taking semaglutide once a week or people taking liraglutide once every day. Participants will either get semaglutide, liraglutide or "dummy" medicine. Which treatment is decided by chance. Participants who receive semaglutide or semaglutide "dummy" medicine will need to take 1 injection once a week. Participants who receive liraglutide or liraglutide "dummy" medicine will need to take 1 injection once daily. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach, thigh or upper arm. During the study participants will have talks with study staff about eating healthy food and how to be more physically active. Participants will have 16 clinic visits and 7 phone calls with the study doctor. At 4 of the clinic visits participants cannot eat and drink (water is allowed) for 8 hours before the visit. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.
