Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of sarcopenic obesity (SO) on weight loss outcomes and improvement of quality of life after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of medical nutrition therapy to be applied to patients with sarcopenic obesity receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment by measuring anthropometric measurements and blood parameters.
Sarcopenic obesity (SO) has synergistic detrimental effects on elderlies' health. It greatly increases the risk of cardio-metabolic diseases, physical impairment, institutionalization, and mortality when compared with sarcopenia or obesity alone. Effective interventions to simultaneously increase muscle mass and decrease fat mass are challenging but highly warranted. Research showed that exercise tends to produce better outcomes in SO than nutritional interventions. Inconsistent effects of nutritional interventions may be due to a short intervention duration and participants' poor compliance with nutritional advice. Participants' adherence to a dietary regimen is essential to the success of nutritional interventions. Behavior change techniques grounded in a tested effective theoretical model - the Health Action Process Approach [HAPA] model at improving participants' self-efficacy should be incorporated in a diet modification intervention.This project aims to investigate the effects of a HAPA-based individualized dietary behavior change (IDBC) intervention and exercise training, in combination and separately, for elderly with SO, to improve their body composition and physical functions. In this four-armed randomized controlled trial, investigators will recruit and randomize 380 elderly with SO to one of the following four groups: the combined (COMB) group, receiving the 24-week combined intervention consisting of the IDBC program and exercise training, the EXER-only group, receiving only the exercise training, the IDBC-only group, receiving a combination of the IDBC program and health talks, and the control group, receiving only health talks with no other intervention. Investigators will use health talks to control the group and social interaction effects of the group exercise training for the COMB and the EXER-only groups. Investigators hypothesize that participants in the COMB, EXER-only, and IDBC-only groups will have significantly better outcome measures middle of the intervention (T1), immediately (T2), at 3-months (T3), and 6-months (T4) post-intervention than those in the control group when compared to baseline (T0). Investigators will use mixed-effects modeling to compare changes in all outcome variables at the three post-tests among the four groups. If our intervention is effective at mitigating or preventing such occurrences, the impact on public health will be significant. A similar intervention for other populations.
1. To develop a multiactivity training programme. 2. To explore the effect of this programme on sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, cognitive impairment and Parkinson's disease. 3. To compare the effects of the experimental and control treatments on the muscle strength, body composition, physical function performance and quality of life of the elderly.
Research; It is a planned, non-invasive, controlled study in obese female volunteers and non-obese female volunteers. The population of the study consists of voluntarily non-obese women and obese women. Sarcopenia assets of individuals will be measured with the sarc-f questionnaire, and then muscle strength, muscle mass and physical performance tests will be measured. Then, rectus femoris muscle thickness will be measured with USG, and then walking and balance will be measured with ZEBRIS.
This is a retrospective, observational study in consecutive patients operated on for primary RPS in the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana (Slovenia) between September 1999 and June 2020. This study aims to investigate the impact of preoperatively assessed body composition parameters on the perioperative outcomes of patients operated on for primary RPS. The impact of preoperative malnutrition, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity and myosteatosis to the oncologic and postoperative outcome in patients operated on for primary RPS will be examined. Additionally, the aim is to evaluate the prognostic role of preoperative immune and inflammatory markers (serum albumin level, C-reactive protein, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, platelet to lymphocyte ratio, high-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score) and prognostic nutritional index in primary RPS patients undergoing surgery. Patient outcome will be evaluated in terms of overall survival (OS), local-recurrence free survival (LRFS), postoperative intrahospital length of stay, overall and major postoperative morbidity.
The retrospective cohort study will compare the prevalence of sarcopenia and associated factors between older patients who have undergone bariatric surgery and older patients with obesity without previous bariatric surgery.
Prospective natural history pilot study to explore the link between muscle composition using an MRI-based Muscle Assessment Score (MAsS) and adverse outcomes in liver transplant candidates.
Recently, numerous signaling proteins derived from adipose tissue and/or skeletal muscle have been described and are involved in the pathogenesis of obesity and the pathophysiology of aging. Current evidence suggests a role for the FGF-Klotho system, circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA), miR-499, and exosomes not only in the pathophysiology of obesity, but also in the association with sarcopenic obesity (OS) and in a accelerated aging. The investigator´s hypothesis is that obesity, especially OS, might be the cause of advanced aging, reflected in lower levels of the FGF-Klotho system, higher concentrations of cfDNA and a change in the profiles of miRNAs and exosomes, which could have an impact on risk. cardiovascular and metabolic. For this, a descriptive cross-sectional study is proposed in 50 patients with obesity, who will be classified as OS or not, and 25 healthy controls, between 50-60 years old. The determinations are made by the IBIOMED of the University of León. To study the evolution of aging markers over a year of follow-up, a second part of the study will analyze the possible differences according to the treatments assigned to each patient in the context of real life (lifestyle changes, drugs, bariatric surgery).
Sarcopenic obesity is characterized by a progressive decline in muscle mass and an increase in body fat, a condition especially present in the elderly. A significant improvement in metabolic parameters has been observed with the completion of taurine supplementation and also with the practice of physical exercise, but there are no studies associating the interventions mentioned above with the aim of analyzing the metabolic profile of elderly people with sarcopenic obesity. The metabolomics approach allows the study of a whole set of metabolites involved in a biological system. It is believed that taurine supplementation associated with physical exercise is capable of promoting positive contributions to the metabolic profile, investigated through a metabolomics approach. Therefore, the present study seeks to investigate whether taurine supplementation associated with exercise is able to promote contributions to the metabolic profile, through a metabolomics approach, in elderly women with sarcopenic obesity.
