Filter by:This research is to develop a weight loss and weight maintenance program through dietary modifications for adults with obesity. Although scientific studies have shown the feasibility of rapid and safe dietary weight loss and subsequent weight maintenance, no efficacious dietary weight management program is widely available, and thus bariatric surgery remains the most reliable approach for weight loss/management. Safe and effective dietary weight loss and subsequent weight maintenance require flexible, individualized advice by an experienced dietitian/nutritionist.

The study aims at testing the level of adherence to the Mediterranean diet among health-workers, comparing this aspect to the extra-working physical activity, anthropometric measures and prevalence of cardiovascular, metabolic and neoplastic diseases previously diagnosed.
This study aims to validate and pilot test the short-term intervention effect of a newly developed healthy metabolic behaviour tool, named as the 6P tool, on dietary attitude/ practice and body weight changes over one month among overweight and obese women. A total of 50 women, aged 21-40 years, BMI ≥25 kg/m2, who are attending the preconception clinic and planning for a pregnancy over the next one year, will be invited to participate in this pilot study. The recruitment period is estimated to take up to 10 weeks, with subsequent 1 month follow-up visit.
Stuydy of eatin and physical activity patterns in Uruguayan workers and association with obesity, overweight, and tasks.
The carbohydrate periodisation framework is a widely accepted nutritional intervention strategy in the field of sports nutrition. However, despite the validity of this approach, it is reported that athletes find it difficult to stick to this behaviour and that the support required is highly personalised, and as a result time consuming for the coach. Prior research has suggested that a digital environment can deliver better personalised dietary interventions to better support athletes. The overall purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a digital approach (a menu planner app with coach support), and gain understanding on the strategy to implement coach support according to app engagement in the digital approach to improve dietary carbohydrate periodisation behaviours in athletes.
The First Heroes study plans to influence weight and health trajectories, modify disease risk, and improve health care services for mother-father-infant triads from racial/ethnic minority and health disparity populations. This study is a two-arm, randomized controlled trial recruiting from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) obstetrics practices. This study will enroll 250 father-mother dyads in the second trimester of pregnancy and intervene through their offspring's 1-year birthday. Each mother-father dyad participating will be randomly assigned to one of two arms: 1. Obstetric and Pediatric Standard of Care + New Parent Engagement Intervention Arm or; 2. Obstetric and Pediatric Standard of Care + Safety Control Arm.
A)Background: Approximately 44% of patients with Inflammatory bowel disease have Ulcerative colitis(UC) which is a lifelong, chronic disease, starting in early adulthood, where the colon becomes inflamed and ulcerated due to a complex interaction between genetics, altered immune function, and environmental factors2such as dietary intake. While the etiology of UC is not clear, it is hypothesized the abnormal immune response and chronic inflammation may be caused by dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota and decreased epithelial barrier function. Substantial evidence suggests that higher than normal levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in the colon plays a role in the etiology of UC. The higher levels of H2S and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) found in the feces of patients with UC is likely caused by the reduced conversion of H2S to thiosulfate by rhodanese (thiosulfate transferase enzyme)12, and increased colonization or activity of SRB. For example, SRB has been identified as the predominant bacterial group in patients with UC compared to the minority group in healthy individuals, and SRB growth is stimulated by the presence of sulfur-rich amino acids. Dietary intervention may help to repair the dysbiosis existing in the microbiome of the patient with UC, but research about food and recurrence of UC is conflicting. Dietary components such as sulfur and sulfates also appear to play a role in the recurrence of UC; although a recent review of the relationship between sulfur-containing foods and UC calls for more randomized controlled trials (RCTs) examining a reduced sulfur diet in UC. With the body of evidence described above, there is a compelling reason to consider that sulfur and sulfate-containing foods contribute to developing severe UC. Thus, understanding how dietary modulation of sulfur intake within the context of UC impacts disease status is the focus of this proposal.
This study investigates the association of genetic effects of rs7903146 and dietary intake on type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) risk in a healthy population. T2DM risk was assessed through glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) concentration in 73 subjects. Dietary intake was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ).
Bariatric surgery (BS) has a history of new procedures and techniques arising and then disappearing due to problems and complications. The present is no different with new and old procedures changing with the regularity of night following day. One of the important questions today in BS is the length and or need/value of the Biliopancreatic limb bypass (BPLL.) The Sleeve and the Band have "0" bypass, the RNY has a "short" bypass and the Biliopancreatic Diversion type procedures have a "long" (distal) bypass. The Mini-Gastric Bypass Original Technique (MGB-OT) version of the One Anastomosis Bypass (OAGB) includes a "medium" length of bypass, longer than the BPLL of the RNY and shorter than the the "Long" BPL of the BPD procedures. In addition, uniquely, the MGB-OT includes a "Tailored" BPLL. Not all OAGB surgeons use this approach and several have argued in favor of a "Fixed" BPLL of 150 cm. This paper is part of a series of studies of the "Tailored" BPLL specifically in MGB-OT patients. Notably it demonstrates in an online survey that patient reported weight loss and food choices change after MGB-OT and in addition the changes are related to the "Tailored" BPLL
