Filter by:A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, single-centre, clinical safety and efficacy study in subjects with overweight or Obese Class - I, to evaluate the degree of significant weight loss by regular intake of Phaseolean (White Kidney Bean Standardized Extract). This study is dose-response study to evaluate effectiveness of two different dosage i.e. 1500 mg Versus 3000 mg. 22 subjects will be enrolled per test treatment to complete 20 subjects per test treatment.
This Study aims to develop machine learning models with the ability to predict patients' BMI and complications after Bariatric Surgery (CABS-Score). This Study also aims to develop machine learning models with the ability to predict diabetic (DM II)patients' remission rate after Bariatric Surgery. The service mentioned above will be publicly available as a web-based application
The study aim is to evaluate a patient-centred intervention focusing on improved quality of life and wellbeing among individuals with obesity and risk factors for adverse outcome.
The purpose of this research is to determine patient-reported outcomes after weight loss surgery, including changes in health, mood, quality of life, health satisfaction, and emotional health, in low-risk patients. Weight loss surgery has been well studied for patients with body mass index (BMI) 35 kg/m^2 or more and those with weight-related medical problems who have a BMI 30 kg/m^2 or more. However, outcomes after weight loss surgery in patients with BMI under 35 kg/m^2 and without co-morbidities have not been well studied.
The purpose of the study is to determine if patients wearing a CAM boot have a change in weight compared to patients who wear a CAM boot and are provided nutritional guidelines and perform upper body exercises.
The goal of this superiority crossover randomised controlled trial is to investigate whether there is an optimal position at which to perform kangaroo mother care (KMC) in extremely preterm infants in the NICU. The main question it aims to answer is: 1) is there an optimal position for an infant to be held during KMC and 2) to optimise benefits for infants receiving KMC. Participants will be: 1) randomised into two groups which determine which angle they will start at first, 2) assessed over two hour-long sessions on different days with a change in the angle at the 30 minute point, 3) monitored using a Massimo NIRS machine which will record oxygen saturations, cerebral NIRS values and heart rates, and 4) monitored for any episodes of desaturations and bradycardias during this time. Participants will then be assessed beginning with the the other angle first on a different day. The researchers will then compare the two groups to see if being held at a 30 degrees during KMC is superior to being held at 60 degrees in terms of physiological stability.
People have different beliefs about controlling their weight. Individuals who believe they should control their weight are more likely to have poor body image, low self-esteem and disordered eating. Individuals who believe they should aim for a healthy lifestyle and accept their natural weight have better body image, better self-esteem and less disordered eating. This study investigates the impact of three types of education on participants' beliefs about controlling weight: 1) education about the body's natural regulation of weight; or 2) education about healthy nutrition; or 3) education about both the body's regulation of weight and healthy nutrition. The study will also investigate whether changing participants' beliefs about controlling weight impacts participants' body satisfaction, feelings about themselves and intention to diet. It is predicted that teaching both about the body's regulation of weight and healthy eating will decrease participants' belief in personal control over weight, and increase participants' belief in striving for a healthy lifestyle and accepting their natural weight. In turn, these changes in weight control beliefs are expect to predict improved body satisfaction, feelings about themselves and a lower intention to diet.
Several natural compounds have been explored as immune-boosting, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory dietary supplements. Amongst them, hydroxytyrosol a natural antioxidant found in olive products, and endemic medicinal plants have attracted the scientific's community and industry's interest. The safety and biological activity of a standardised supplement containing 10 mg of hydroxytyrosol synthesized using genetically modified Escherichia coli strains and equal amounts (8.33 μL) of essential oils from oregano vulgaris, sage officinalis and crithmum maritimum in an open-label, single-arm, prospective clinical study were studied. The supplement capsules were given to 12 healthy subjects, aged 26-52, once a day for 8 weeks.
This study aims to examine balance parameters and weight distributions at different kneeling positions.
This study aims to investigate if a less physically and psychologically taxing approach to resistance training can generate equal or greater outcomes when compared to a more physically and psychologically taxing approach.
