Filter by:Weight loss interventions for neurologically health individuals have established benefits for improving physical and psychosocial function. The investigators believe that Veterans who have had a stroke would realize similar benefits and that the effects would be enhanced with concurrent exercise training. The investigators will study the effects of a 15-week lifestyle management program to determine if it can effectively improve some of the physical and psychosocial problems common in Veterans who have had a stroke.
In this trial, the aim is to assess the clinical benefits and harms, as well as cost-effectiveness of an intensive weight loss (IWL) intervention that includes total dietary replacements, behavioural support and weight-loss medication compared with existing weight management programmes within primary care for people with severe and complex obesity.
In this trial, the aim is to assess the clinical benefits and harms, as well as cost-effectiveness of an intensive weight loss (IWL) intervention that includes total dietary replacements, behavioural support and weight-loss medication compared with existing weight management programmes within primary care for people with obesity class I or uncomplicated obesity class II or higher.
With this trial, the aim is to assess the benefits and harms of a non-surgical intensive weight loss intervention that includes total dietary replacements, behavioural support and weight-loss medication compared with bariatric surgery for people with severe and complex obesity. The interpretation of the results will help inform future care pathways for people with obesity in whom bariatric surgery is currently the only available effective treatment option.
Obesity is becoming a major global public health issue. Calorie restriction (CR) is the most important treatment for weighting loss. In recent years, two novel types of intermittent fasting recently have gained more attention: the 5:2 diet and time-restricted eating (TRE). TRE requires individuals to eat in a specified number of hours per day (typically 4 to 10 hours) without energy intake restriction. The 5:2 diet involves 5 feast days and 2 fast days per week; participants eat ad libitum without restriction on feast days while 25% of energy needs (approximately 500-800 kcal per day) are consumed on fast days. However, the effects of dietary strategy of intermittent fasting plus time-restricted eating (modified time-restricted eating: TRE 5 days and fasting 2days per week) on weight loss and cardiometabolic risk factors in obese adults have not been proved. This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effect of modified time-restricted eating (mTRE) and CR on weight loss and cardiometabolic risk factors in obese adults compared to usual health care over 12 months.
The Investigators propose suture plication placement at the distal gastric body drives a significant portion of weight loss in endoscopic sleeve and sutures only need to be placed in the distal gastric body. Therefore, in this pilot study, the investigators aim to compare "belt" with "belt and suspenders" plication pattern using the Endomina system to determine percent total weight loss.
Obesity and cardiometabolic risks are significant public health issues, with about two-thirds of U.S. adults overweight or obese. Weight loss can prevent these health problems, but current lifestyle interventions have limited success. New, effective strategies are needed to address this rising issue at the population level. The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate how a behavioral intervention combined with technology impacts weight loss in young adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the combination of behavioral intervention and technology influence weight loss in young adults? - How does the combination of behavioral intervention and technology influence energy intake in young adults?
This trial is conducted in China. The purpose of the 24-week trial is to investigate the efficacy of henagliflozin to induce body weight loss and the purpose of the extension is to evaluate the hypoglycemic effect of henagliflozin in obese subjects without diabetes. Trial has the following two periods: 1) A 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial for evaluating the efficacy of henagliflozin to induce body weight loss; 2) A 12-week multicenter randomized controlled open-label trial for evaluating the hypoglycemic effect of henagliflozin followed by a 24-week extension period.
Metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease, often referred to as "fatty liver disease", is a leading cause of liver failure. Dietary weight loss is a cornerstone of treating fatty liver disease, but access to traditional in-person nutritional education is often limited by cost, availability, and transportation. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) has the potential to not only overcome these barriers, but also provide an interactive learning experience, such as measuring and preparing foods. Therefore, the investigators have created and validated an iVR dietician program known as the Immersive Virtual Alimentation and Nutrition (IVAN) using evidence-informed practices from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. The goal of this project is to translate the IVAN program from human and patient research to practice and community research. The investigators plan to accomplish this by performing a randomized clinical trial evaluating the effect of the IVAN program in combination with synchronous audio/video dietary counseling on self-reported dietary intake and weight compared to in-person counseling. Concurrently, the investigators will provide a survey assessing implementation outcomes to both groups as well as the dietician at each study visit, and crossover the intervention at study completion so all participants assess the IVAN program. Additionally, the investigators will have clinic health care providers experience the IVAN program and assess implementation outcomes.
This study aims to conduct a feasibility trial to examine the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a randomized controlled trial that evaluates the effect of the weight management intervention on anthropometric measures (body weight and BMI), dietary quality, physical activity levels, physical and psychosocial functioning, self- efficacy for weight loss and quality of life.
