Filter by:Researchers thought that the molecules Sfrp-5, Resistin and Netrin-4, which will be examine, they may have a significant effect on weight gain during pregnancy. Based on these foundations, researchers expect changes in the levels of these molecules in women who gain excessive weight during pregnancy. In this study, researchers aimed to examine the moderator relationship between the molecules will be examine and weight gain in women who gained weight above the normal limits determined during pregnancy. For this reason, 44 participant who gained excessive weight during pregnancy and 46 pregnant participant who gained normal weight were included in the study. The levels of Netrin-4, Sfrp-5 and Resistin molecules in the blood serum of the individuals in the study group were measured with a Commercial Elisa kit.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-component lifestyle interventions during pregnancy on promoting appropriate gestational weight gain, preventing GDM, and improving pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes among overweight or obese pregnant women. The intervention strategies are developed based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health (via WeChat Public Account in smartphone), and will be conducted online and offline. This study will recruit and follow-up 200 overweight or obese singleton pregnant women (pre-pregnancy BMI≥24 kg/m2) during the first trimester of pregnancy from Weifang maternal and Child Health Center, Shandong Province, China. The 200 overweight or obese pregnant women will be randomly allocated at a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control group, stratified by the categorical variables of age, BMI and parity. Participants in the control group will be provided usual prenatal care. The lifestyle intervention will last for approximately 6 months (from 10-14 weeks to 32-36 weeks of gestation). Follow-up timepoints included 10-14 weeks of gestation,24-28 weeks of gestation,32-36 weeks of gestation. The interventions are composed of health education related to gestational weight gain and healthy lifestyles, diet modification, active physical activity, regular individual in-person and telephone sessions, diet behavior monitoring, physical activity monitoring, and weight monitoring with Huawei smart watch. The hypothesis is that lifestyle interventions based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health will result in more appropriate gestational weight gain and lower risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes compared with usual care.
This study will use a 2 x 2 factorial design to test impact of two intervention strategies (bottle size and bottle opacity) on infant weight gain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to Improve the quality of life in Hemodialysis patient. The main questions it aims to answer are: - [Improve the self-compliance of dialysis patients with weight management] - [alleviate the volume load of dialysis patients and reduce cardiovascular complications] Participants will be divided into two groups based on a weight management regimen： Control group: received routine outpatient management. Specific methods: The dialysis doctor registered the information of the patient's weight and blood pressure at the end of dialysis, and informed the patient of the purpose, role and importance of weight management. Intervention group: On the basis of routine outpatient management, patients or their family members were subjected to remote follow-up management based on wechat, and the follow-up time was 6 months. Specific methods: Same as the control group, the information of weight and blood pressure of the patients was registered at the end of dialysis, and the purpose, role and importance of weight management were informed to the patients. On this basis, a special wechat signal is set up to add patients or patients' family members as wechat friends and establish a wechat interaction platform with patients. In the interdialysis period, remind patients to weigh themselves through wechat (the time of each weighing is fixed, preferably consistent with the time of weighing in the hemodialysis center), control the weight gain during the interdialysis period not to exceed 4.5% of dry weight, and inform patients again about the purpose, role and importance of weight management.
People with HIV are at a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) due to the effects of the virus and its treatment. Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), a common HIV treatment, are associated with increased CVD risk and metabolic issues, such as weight gain and high blood pressure. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, however, have been working well in reducing CVD events and hospitalizations due to heart failure, irrespective of diabetes presence. They also help in reducing weight and blood pressure. Pitavastatin has shown to work in lowering CVD events in people with HIV, but its availability is limited. This benefit is thought to be common to all statins, but this has not yet been confirmed. This study will examine the impact of dapagliflozin vs. placebo on metabolic parameters in people with HIV with high metabolic risk who are on INSTI-based ART.
- Efficacy of olanzapine on weight gain in advanced stage gynecologic cancer - Proprotion of pateints in advanced stage gynecologic cancer who recieving paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy gain weight on olanzapine or placebo
In 20 - 30% of the patients, the low responders, sufficient weight loss is not achieved after bariatric surgery. Secondary and/or tertiary bariatric procedures can lead to successful weight loss and resolution of comorbid conditions though, morbidity and mortality rates of these procedures are high. Therefore, additional pharmacotherapy has been suggested. Semaglutide is one of the medications that might improve outcome in the post-bariatric population. Semaglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It causes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, promotes satiety and inhibits glucagon secretion. In obese (non-bariatric) patients, semaglutide has shown to improve glycemic control, decrease blood pressure, lower cardiovascular risk, and decrease body weight.
The goal of this this intervention is to test the degree to which a portion size labeling intervention influences consumer selection of smaller portions at two large cafés. The main question it aims to answer is: Do consumers order fewer calories when the portion size label for the smaller entree is called "standard" instead of "small"? Participants will order lunch as usual in the two cafes (one intervention, one control) for 5.5 months, and all order items will be recorded in the check-out system. One cafe will receive the labeling intervention, while the other will not. Researchers will compare the average calories per order between the two cafes to see if there are differences.
The aim of this study is to compare the impact of 4 different types of front of package (FOP) food and beverage messages: 1) green labels on healthy foods, 2) red/yellow/green labels on less healthy/moderately healthy/healthy foods, 3) physical activity calorie equivalent labels, and 4) posters reminding consumers of the sweetened beverage tax on consumers' beverage and snack selections.
This study is a pilot open label crossover trial to assess the feasibility and acceptability of reducing ultra- processed foods (UPF) in a personalized manner from the diets of patients with major depressive disorder who eat a large percentage of UPF.
