Filter by:The current proposal aims to investigate implicit and explicit priming paradigms for changing cue-dependent and goal-directed nutritional behavior in participants with severe obesity before and after bariatric surgery as well as in a control group with normal weight.
The current proposal aims to investigate neuronal correlates of implicit and explicit priming paradigms for changing cue-dependent and goal-directed nutritional behavior.
The effect of lifestyle treatment on physical capacity, maximal strength, eating behavior and quality of life in patients with morbid obesity (LIFETIME)
Diet has a considerable influence on microbiota composition and the intake of either prebiotics (microbiota-specific food or probiotics (live microbiota species) has been shown to induce positive effects in both anxiety and depression. At present there are few studies exploring stress-related conditions such as emotional/comfort eating behaviours, particularly in individuals who have experienced early life stress and/or find stress difficult to deal with in regards to gut microbiome composition and subsequent behavioural outcomes. Early life stress has been linked to the development of bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa in adolescence and adulthood and since the gut microbiota has been proposed as having a causal role in the aetiology and/or maintenance of disordered eating, an empirical question is whether the microbiota may mediate the relation between stress and disordered eating. This is an investigation into the effects of chronic daily consumption of a prebiotic on stress-related eating and mood.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate of body mass index and eating behaviour changes in female patients with fibromyalgia under medical treatment.
This project aims to explore how social media use, in particular food photography, influences eating behaviours. It will be approached through three methods - a correlational experience sampling method, an experimental experience sampling method, and an experimental laboratory method. This registration describes the correlational experience sampling method.
In post-menopause women affected by breast cancer and treated with chemotherapy, overweight and obesity are considered both a risk factors as well as a negative prognostic factors since they increase the risk of early relapse and death. Furthermore, a decrease in weight may also occur during chemotherapy and is associated to a reduced quality of life and survival. Also, the majority of patients under chemotherapy refer dysgeusia, an alteration in taste that can determine food aversion, selection of hypercaloric food or reduced food introduction up to malnutrition. Our aim is to evaluate eating habits changes in patients affected by breast cancer and under chemotherapy treatment and to better understand how this alterations influence the quality of life, anxiety, depression and insomnia of patients as well as overall survival.
In order to investigate if individuals, carrying genetic variants predisposing to obesity, respond differently to visual presented food images than non-carriers the investigators aim to screen 500 people for a common risk variant in the FTO gene. From those 500 screened 40 subjects, 20 homozygous for the risk allele and 20 homozygous for a non risk allele will be selected for the second step in the study. This part involves the fMRI technique to visualize the brain response, focus on reward system activation, when food images are visually presented in the scanner. Factors regarding eating behavior, sleep, physical exercise and relation to food are investigated in the first part of the study as well as clinical parameters such as BMI.
