Filter by:The objective of this study was to determine changes in body weight and related outcomes achievable over a 16-week period in response to three different commercially available weight loss programs (Nutrisystem) providing pre-packed, portion controlled foods and beverages, each compared to a self-directed diet, in apparently healthy overweight and obese men and women.
This trial is conducted in The United States of America. The aim of this trial is to investigate Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics (the exposure of the trial drug in the body) of NNC0194-0499 in Male Subjects with Overweight or Obesity.
This project seeks to build on innovative strategies to optimize the care of low-income children with a BMI ≥ 85th percentile. To accomplish this goal, investigators will implement a new clinical-community intervention, theoretically grounded in the Integrated Clinical and Community Systems of Care Model, to address obesity through optimized screening and management known to be effective, e-Referrals, Healthy Weight Clinics, and the YMCA's Healthy Weight and Your Child weight management program (originally known as MEND). The study will examine outcomes for children that matter most to a broad group of stakeholders including parents, clinicians, and public health practitioners as well as inform the care of >7 million children with obesity covered by the Children's Health Insurance Program or Medicaid.
The FLOW (First Loss Of Weight) study is designed to assess the effects of repeated administration of GSP3, an investigational product, on body weight. It is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, fixed-dose study. FLOW is being conducted in 5 medical centers in Italy, Czech Republic, and Denmark, and will randomize 123 overweight and obese adult males and females to receive either placebo, GSP3 (2.25g), or GSP3 (3.75g) in addition to a hypocaloric diet (-600 kcal/day) for 12 weeks.
This study assessed the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of bimagrumab when administered in overweight and obese patients with type 2 diabetes
Dietary fiber intake is protective against overweight and obesity; however, a significant fiber gap exists between consumption and recommended intake values. Soluble fiber beneficially impacts metabolism, and supplementation may be a feasible approach to improve body composition and glycemia in overweight and obese individuals. The investigators will evaluate results of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of soluble fiber supplementation among overweight and obese adults for outcomes related to weight management (e.g. body mass index [BMI], body weight, body fat percentage, waist circumference) and glucose and insulin homeostasis (e.g. fasting glucose, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance [HOMA-IR], fasting insulin) through systematic review and meta-analysis.
Up to 50% of obese patients are not interested in, or ready for, weight loss. Clinical practice guidelines clearly recommend that these patients avoid gaining weight. However, despite this clinical guideline, weight gain prevention interventions are not available in primary care practice. Balance is a pragmatic, randomized controlled effectiveness trial for weight gain prevention for patients within rural community health centers, using a digital health platform.
In this study the investigators want to explore the feasibility and effect of a simple intervention provided by primary care physicians on treatment for overweight in general practice. Regular patients visiting their ordinary family physician will be asked for participation if they comply with the inclusion criteria. If so, they will follow a detailed food list for 12 months with regular visits to the doctor. At each visit, the participating patients will be asked about their progress on weight loss and all measurements will be made. Simultaneously a control group of primary care physicians will also recruit patients that fulfill the inclusion criteria. These patients will also provide data that will serve as Control to the intervention group.
College students are in a newly independent phase of life; many of whom encounter unhealthy dietary decision- making, barriers to physical activity, and poor sleep behaviors. Healthy Detours is a location-based smartphone application tailored in real-time to a student's schedule and locale, and aims to guide students toward healthier eating, exercise, and lifestyle choices as a way to prevent the onset of damaging and costly health outcomes. Through a randomized control trial, this Phase II project will test the effectiveness of an evidence-based smartphone application that will provide students with on-demand, location-specific information about healthy lifestyle choices.
In this double-blind Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial investigators are going to study the effects of Spirulina supplementation on anthropometric measurements, lipid profile, appetite, liver enzymes, inflammatory and glycemic markers in a sample of overweight or obese adults.
