Filter by:The study aims to test web-based strategies, in overweight or obese participants at risk or affected by Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus , to promote adherence over time to a healthy lifestyle and nutritional medical therapy (TMN). The study population includes 40 subjects, randomly allocated to web group (therapeutic reinforcement through web-based strategies) or traditional group (traditional educational approach). Anthropometric and clinical parameters will be collected, as well as scores of validated questionnaires will be administered up to 12 months from the enrollment.
This study aims to investigate the effect of metformin as host-directed therapy in obese/overweight patients with dengue Primary Objective To evaluate the safety and tolerability of metformin in obese/overweight young adults and children with dengue Secondary Objectives - To assess the effect of metformin therapy in obese/overweight patients with dengue on physiological, clinical and virological parameters - To assess the immunomodulation effects of metformin therapy in obese/overweight patients with dengue - To assess difference in gene expression between treatment group compared to non-treatment population
This study assesses whether oral supplementation with vitamin D contributes to the reduction of body mass index and lipid profile in adolescents and young adults. The intervention group will receive 1000 IU of vitamin D (DV) and the control group 200 IU of DV.
Therapeutic effectiveness of coldness in relieving pain and reducing inflammation has been known for many years now. Over that time, various coldness therapies have gained in popularity, including winter swimming, snow baths or whole body cryostimulation (WBC) . Recent researches have shown positive effects of WBC on metabolic profile, low-to-moderate chronic inflammation and related diseases (e.g., obesity). WBC could be, thus, intended as an adjuvant method in the treatment of dysmetabolic conditions, such as overweight or obesity. WBC is a cheap easily accessible practice, with a few well-defined contraindications and limited non severe possible adverse events, if performed in specialized centres. At the same time, in sport science appears data, which indicated on inhibition of adaptive changes induced by regular training. The primary aim is to define, through a randomized controlled approach, the relative effectiveness of up to 20 consecutive sessions of either WBC, high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT), or their combination (WBC and HIIT) in improving the metabolic status of overweight and obese subjects. The effects will be assessed, at different time-points, in terms of insulin sensitivity and modification in the profile of hormones regulating the energy metabolism (adipokines, myokines, bone-derived hormones) and the inter-organ cross-talk.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect on weight loss in a group of subjects suffering from overweight and mild obesity (BMI between 25 and 32 Kg/m2) and with weight > 75 Kg/m2 being administered with a 3 g/day polyglucosamine dosage.
Type 2 Diabetes Meletus(T2DM) is a global health concern. The incidence of T2DM globally is increasing exponentially partly due to unhealthy food habits and sedentary life style.exercise and nutritional intervention is long being reported to improve glycemic control and improve quality of life among individuals with T2DM. Moderate intensity of walking for 30 minutes is proven to regulate good metabolic control. however, in over weight elderly individuals, joint pain or arthritis walking be a challenging task. therefore, walking on sand which is reported to be easy on joints would be a alternative for those patients.
High-intensity interval exercise (HIIT), as compared to moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), is a time-efficient strategy to decrease total and abdominal fat mass (FM). However, the mechanisms underlying such adaptations are not yet elucidated and research are still needed to establish the optimal HIIT according to subject characteristics. The aim of this study was to compare acute HIIE and MICE cycling exercises on enjoyment, post-exercise substrate oxidation, appetite and energy intakes over 24h in postmenopausal women with overweight or obesity. It is hypothesized that compared with the traditional MICE, HIIE could favor greater enjoyment, higher 2h-post-exercise fat oxidation and a similar energy intakes over 24h despite different post-exercise appetite perceptions.
A prospective, multicenter, open-label, post-approval study of the safety and effectiveness of ORBERA36 as a 12-month adjunct to weight reduction for obese adults (BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 and BMI ≤ 50 kg/m2) or for pre-surgical weight reduction in obese and super-obese adults (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2 or ≥ 35 kg/m2 with comorbidities).
The study aims to investigate the impact of 2 nutritional patterns on high-frequency episodic migraine. Subjects enrolled will be randomized in two arms: a) very-low-calorie-ketogenic-diet (VLCKD), b) hypocaloric balanced non ketogenic-diet (HBD).
Childhood obesity is a major public health issue since it is a risk factor of adulthood obesity, cardiovascular disease, psychological disorders, and other chronic conditions. RéPPOP is a two year personalized pathway for multidisciplinary care for overweight and obese children, close to patients' homes. Short and medium-term assessments of Rhône RéPPOP care for overweight and obese children show encouraging results. Long-term assessment is needed to confirm these results. The present study aims to assess the long-term efficiency of Rhône RéPPOP care for overweight and obese children by comparing BMI Z-scores at the start and the end of RéPPOP care to the current BMI. This data will be collected through a telephonic questionnaire by the scientific manager. The study's secondary objectives are to evaluate patients and their families' lifestyle changes and to improve RéPPOP practices.
