Filter by:This is an retrospective and prospective (ambispective) study with data collection from volunteer patients who passed an MMPI-2-RF (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured form) questionnaire in the preoperative phase of a bariatric surgery project. The evolution of their BMI will be correlated to psychological dimensions collected in patient questionnaires, before and after bariatric surgery. The presence of possible risk factors such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, quality of life, satisfaction and the perception of body, could make it possible to establish adapted therapies before surgery, in order to attenuate or eliminate the presence of these factors, and improve BMI evolution and bariatric surgery success.
The goal of this RCT is to compare percent weight change in early breast cancer who takes medical supplement or not, during treatment with chemotherapy (standard AC regimen). The main question is • the change of weight (%) before and after complete treatment of breast cancer therapy. Participants will be randomized into 2 group - intervention group - receive medical supplement daily during chemotherapy treatment. - control group - Nutritional advise during chemotherapy treatment.
Globally, overweight and obesity have become a major health concern and are present at all ages in both developed and developing countries. Sedentary lifestyle habits lead to reduced physical activity, which reduces energy expenditure, and this, combined with excessive energy intake, increases the risk of obesity. Lack of exercise combined with a sedentary lifestyle can exacerbate obesity and chronic disease. Among all obese people, the number of obese college students shows a growing trend. Obesity among college students not only leads to impaired physical health, but may also lead to discrimination, low self-confidence and self-efficacy, and even depression. Although traditional exercise methods can help college students with weight management, many college students do not enjoy these traditional physical activities. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new form of exercise that is different from traditional exercise to get college students moving. Thus, obtaining the recommended level of physical activity. With the progress of information technology and the popularity of electronic devices, the frequency of college students using computers and mobile phones has increased. Taking advantage of college students' interest in screen games, it is a new way to control sedentary behaviours and obesity by converting static screen usage time into dynamic screen usage time. Active video games (AVGs) are a new type of video games, which require players to complete the game by interacting with the images on the screen through upper limb, lower limb, and whole-body movements. Studies have shown that playing active video games produces more energy expenditure and physical activity than sedentary video games (static games). The variety of research on AVGs is promising, but the population of participants in the studies has been mostly children and adolescents. The college student population, with a high prevalence of overweight and obesity, has a high prevalence of screen time. It is especially important to intervene with overweight and obese college students using AVG to shift their interest from screens to exercise, thereby increasing physical activity intensity. Therefore, this paper will systematically investigate the effects of AVGs on physical activity, mental health, and body composition of overweight and obese college students in China.
Assessment of body weight change among prisoners in Martinique between admission in jail and 3 months later expressed as a percentage of admission weight. Intensity of physical activities, nutrition intakes and psychological state are also studied to describe associated factors to body weight change.
The purpose of this research study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of an interactive counselor -led online family skills training as part of a behavioral weight loss program for Black Adults.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the fastest growing public health problems in developed and developing countries and imposes a large financial burden on health-care systems. Preventing, delaying, and managing diabetes should be a priority for health-care systems. Nationally, 38% of adults have prediabetes, with more than 80% of people with prediabetes being unaware of their condition. In Maryland, an estimated 10.5% of adults report prediabetes, and 33.7% of Baltimore City residents have obesity, an important risk factor for prediabetes. The BMDRP aims to increase the capacity of BMDRP hospitals and community partners to offer DPP and DSMT directly in communities and will also increase the number of referrals into these programs. Successful enrollment and completion of DPP has demonstrated reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes for individuals with pre-diabetes. However, limited data exist on changes in body composition and liver fat in individuals completing DPP. Individuals with pre-diabetes often have obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We will evaluate for changes in body fat and liver fat in individuals completing the DPP program.
The present study is a pilot study examining whether long-term sourdough bread consumption reduces energy intake and blood lipids levels over a period of 4 weeks in free-living normalweight and overweight participants.
The aim of the CArdioMetabolic Prevention (CAMP) pilot study is to investigate the effect of a group intervention on lifestyle in adolescents and on at least one adult family member. This will be followed by telemedicine tools for 12-week-time period. A face-to-face group intervention addressing nutrition, physical activity and well being together with an assessment of anthropometry parameters, body composition, questionnaires, blood and stool sampling will be done before and after 12 weeks of telemedicine. The study aims to investigate: - the effect of 12-week intervention on body weight, anthropometry parameters and cardiometabolic markers in comparison to the conventionally led obesity clinic for adolescents - the compliance with telemedicine tools that will focus on the support of balance nutrition, physical activity (evaluation of daily steps through smart bands) and family well being in regards to the effect on anthropometry and laboratory parameters - the effect of the intervention on data from questionnaires (eating disorders, quality of life, psychological health) before and after the intervention - data analysis of family members with respect to theirs offspring
Protocol Number: VNI/121/TrimRox: A unique stimulant- and sugar-free TRCAP21 Prodosomed® nutraceutical formulation, TrimROXTM, has been developed in a cGMP and NSF-certified manufacturing facility that is CFR-111 A compliant as well as having a BRC A rating, ensuring compliance with the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI). The investigators developed a stimulant- and sugar-free TRCAP21 Prodosomed® nutraceutical technology that effectively addresses directly and indirectly all the contributing factors. The investigators will conduct a 90-day study investigation in 100 study participants to assess the efficacy of TRCAP21 on diverse anthropometric aspects including chest, upper arms, waist/belly, hips and thighs, body weight, height, body mass index (BMI), and overall health and well-being.
A prospective interventional trial for 9 months will be carried out on 300 type-2 diabetes mellitus volunteer patients who are above 18-year-old and participants will be selected through consecutive sampling and will be evaluated on the basis of glycemic index and history of patients. Selected parameters will be measured at baseline and after the 12 weeks of therapy. Statistical analysis will be carried out by SPSS, ANOVA, and t-test. From this experimental design, we are expecting improvement in the management of glycemic index, reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and reduction in weight GLP-1 naive patients.
