eCHANGE
Start date: November 2, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate an eHealth intervention facilitating weight maintenance following initial weight loss during a 3-month trial (pilot test)

NCT ID: NCT04509908 Recruiting - Diet Habit Clinical Trials

Eating and Physical Activity Patterns of the Population Working in the Uruguayan State Electrical Company.

PAF
Start date: July 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Stuydy of eatin and physical activity patterns in Uruguayan workers and association with obesity, overweight, and tasks.

NCT ID: NCT04440449 Completed - Type 2 Diabetes Clinical Trials

Effect of Behavioral Lifestyle Intervention on Frailty in Older Adults With Diabetes

Start date: July 15, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study team want to see if changes in lifestyle and behaviors and self-monitoring of diet and physical activity in older adults who have type 2 Diabetes (T2D) may help to prevent or reduce frailty. Frailty occurs in older adults and leads people to have falls, become disabled, require nursing home placement, and have increased risk of death. T2D is one of the major risk factors for frailty. T2D is a significant problem in older adults and is known to increase the risk of future frailty.

NCT ID: NCT04153578 Completed - Septic Shock Clinical Trials

Time to Lose the Weight? Comparison of Weight-based and Non-weight-based Vasopressors for Septic Shock

Start date: November 4, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

At present, there is conflicting evidence regarding outcomes in patients with septic shock receiving weight-based vasopressor (WBVP) versus non-weight-based vasopressor (NWBVP) dosing strategies. At MCMC, a weight-based strategy is in place whereas MDMC, MMMC and MRMC currently utilize a non-weight-based dosing strategy. Obese patients (BMI > 30) receiving either strategy may potentially be receiving substantially more or less vasopressor exposure compared to their non-obese (BMI < 30) counterparts. Determining total vasopressor exposure and assessing clinical outcomes would benefit our institution and others by providing optimal vasopressor dosing strategies in obese and non-obese patients. There is a difference in clinical outcomes between patients receiving weight-based and non-weight-based vasopressor dosing strategies. There is a difference in total vasopressor exposure between obese and non-obese patients utilizing WBVP and NWBVP strategies.

NCT ID: NCT04078607 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Cognitive Distraction on Food Intake: Randomized Crossover Exploratory Study

Start date: January 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study determined effects of a cognitive distraction on amount, preference, and memory of food consumed and perceptions of fullness, hunger, and enjoyment of food in a healthy young-adult population. A randomized controlled crossover study of 119 healthy adults, assigned to begin in either the distracted or control condition, was conducted.

NCT ID: NCT04063059 Completed - Clinical trials for Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice

Black Women's Wellness Project

Start date: May 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed randomized controlled trial will evaluate an educational self-management intervention in 450 African American women and weight management. It will be the first to use a culturally tailored in-person and telephone approach to address all aspects of wellness and social determinants for African American women to achieve optimal long term wellness for both self and family.

NCT ID: NCT03945214 Completed - Stress Clinical Trials

The Impact of 8 Weeks of Digital Meditation Application and Healthy Eating Program on Work Stress and Health Outcomes

SFUC+Health
Start date: February 14, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the present study is to test the effects of a digital meditation intervention and/or a healthy eating intervention in a sample of UCSF employees with overweight and obesity (BMI>=25kg/m2) who report mild to moderate stress. We will randomize UCSF employees to 8-weeks of a digital meditation intervention (using the commercially available application, Headspace), a healthy eating intervention, a digital meditation+healthy eating intervention, or a waitlist control condition.

NCT ID: NCT03867279 Completed - Weight, Body Clinical Trials

Flossing Technique With Neuromuscular Reeducation Exercises in Trained Subjects

Start date: March 12, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction. A deficit of dorsiflexion and motor control can limit the performance of a squat. Neuromuscular reeducation exercises, mobility and elasticity are used in the neuromuscular control and mobility of the kinetic chain. The Flossing technique is applied to improve ankle mobility and the perception of effort. Objective. To compare the efficacy of a protocol for neuromuscular reeducation exercises, mobility and elasticity, and the Flossing technique in ankle mobility and perception of effort when performing squats. Study design. Randomized, multicenter, single-blind clinical study with a follow-up period. Methodology. 40 weightlifters included in the study will be assigned randomly to the study groups: experimental (protocol of reeducation exercises plus the application of the Flossing technique) and control (protocol of reeducation exercises). The intervention will last 4 weeks, with two weekly sessions of 15 minutes each. The variables of the study will be the range of movement of ankle dorsiflexion (Weight Bearing Lunge Test) and the perception of the effort during the squat (Borg scale). A descriptive statistical analysis will be carried out calculating the main statistical characteristics. The distribution of the sample will be analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnof test. In case of homogeneity, parametric tests will be used to calculate changes after each evaluation (t-student) and the intra- and intersubject effect (repeated measures ANOVA). Expected results. Improvement in dorsiflexion of the ankle and decrease in the perception of effort during the squat.

NCT ID: NCT03738540 Completed - Weight Loss Clinical Trials

Pilot Trial of a Telephone Weight Loss, Nutrition, Exercise Study

WeLNES
Start date: August 29, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Many behavioral weight loss interventions have been developed, but still have significant limitations in terms of achieving clinically significant, sustained weight loss. A recent study incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in a randomized clinical trial resulted in participants who attained significantly greater 12-month weight loss in the ACT arm than those assigned to standard behavioral treatment, suggesting that ACT may have the potential to improve behavioral weight loss outcomes. The investigators have developed a novel telephone-delivered version of the ACT behavioral weight loss intervention, based on proven success using ACT telephone counseling intervention for smoking cessation.

NCT ID: NCT03712098 Completed - Smoking Cessation Clinical Trials

Daily Liraglutide for Nicotine Dependence

DAL
Start date: November 29, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This clinical research trial examines the effects of the GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide on smoking behavior, food intake, and weight gain. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm pilot study, overweight and obese smokers (N=40; 20 female and 20 male) will be randomized to 32 weeks of liraglutide or placebo and undergo 8 sessions of smoking cessation behavioral counseling. Outcomes are smoking abstinence and weight change.
