Filter by:The goal of PrepareD is to examine whether the prepregnancy weight-loss intervention administered during the Prepare trial [NCT02346162] has an influence in the postnatal period. PrepareD is a cohort study (no intervention) that will address new specific aims through one in-person visit with mothers and children, dietary recalls, actigraphy, and the use of medical record weights. The goal is to collect data when the child is 3 years old. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the investigators expanded the data collection window in order to collect data up to when the child is 5 years old. The investigators hypothesize that intervening on women before pregnancy is the key to breaking the multigenerational cycle of obesity.
A phase 2 study to assess the efficacy of bimagrumab alone or in addition to semaglutide to assess efficacy and safety in overweight or obese men and women
The trial is a single-centre, randomised and double-blind within cohorts, placebo-controlled, sequential multiple ascending dose trial in normal weight and overweight but otherwise healthy subjects randomised to subcutaneous administration of ZP8396 or placebo
The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial, evaluating the glucose-lowering and weight-loss effects of Akkermansia muciniphila WST01 strain in overweight or obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
This study will examine whether providing physical activity counseling and guidance to patients post bariatric surgery, along with long-term personal follow-up for six months after the surgery, may increase the level of physical activity, and it's effect on anthropometric and functional measures.
Diabetes is the second leading cause of end stage renal disease in France (22% in the 2016 REIN register). In hemodialysis, its prevalence is higher, between 30-40% depending on the study. Associated with type 2 diabetes, a large number of patients present with overweight (body mass index or BMI> 25 kg / m2) which can lead to a temporary contraindication to kidney transplant by the surgeon, or even definitive once BMI is over 30 kg / m2. Indeed, above this threshold, patients are exposed to an increased risk of surgical complications (wall infections, suture release), hospitalizations and potentially transplant failure. A recent study based on the Kidney Registry showed that patients with a BMI> 31 kg / m2 were more likely to stay on dialysis than to benefit from a transplant whereas for each decrease of 1 kg / m2 of BMI, there is a 9-11% increase in the likelihood of being transplanted. The management of obesity in dialysis patients is important for reducing cardiovascular risks but also because it increases the chances of access to transplantation. However, current weight loss programs are disappointing. The changes in hygiene and diet rules integrated into a specialized monitoring program only allow a weight loss of 2 to 8% in 24 months for half of the patients. Bariatric surgery is, of course, a more effective alternative, but with a 10% risk of postoperative complications. Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (aGLP1) analogues are a new class of antidiabetic drugs that have revolutionized the management of type 2 diabetes. In fact, they combine efficacy on glycemic control but also on weight loss. They are used in obese non-diabetic people in some countries, with a reduction in weight of up to 10 to 15% with certain molecules. In addition, they have shown an effect on reducing cardiovascular events in diabetics including with Chronic Kidney Disease CKD 3-4. AGPL1 are well tolerated with side effects mainly of digestive tropism such as nausea or vomiting. Exceptionally, these effects can occur from the first injection requiring permanent discontinuation of treatment. In 20% of cases, these side effects can appear in the first weeks. They gradually fade, spontaneously or after symptomatic treatment and allow titration of the drug. AGLP1 is currently contraindicated in patients with reduced renal function, that is, when the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is <15 ml / min (MRC stage 5-5D), because this population specific was excluded from the originator studies. However, aGLP1 are small peptides that are not eliminated by the kidneys. Their elimination takes place through the general catabolism of proteins. To date, 2 publications have evaluated the safety profile and efficacy of an aGLP1, liraglutide (Victoza®), in diabetic dialysis patients. These studies showed that the 24 hour plasma concentration of liraglutide increased by 50% over the long term. The safety profile was acceptable with, as expected, a predominance of gastrointestinal effects in the first weeks of treatment such as nausea, vomiting. The authors suggest an adjustment of the dosages and a longer titration period to limit side effects. However, treatment with aGPL1 is effective with better glycemic control and an average weight loss of 2.6 kg over a period of 3 months. Studies show that weight loss under liraglutide continues beyond 3 months with possible losses between 4 and 8 kg at 6 months and 12 months of treatment followed 12. Liraglutide (Victoza®) is the analogue of GPL1 for which we have a sufficiently long follow-up (> 10 years) on its effectiveness and its short and long-term side effects. The main objective of this project, in type 2 diabetic patients on dialysis, as a temporary contraindication for transplant due to overweight, is on the one hand to study the effect of liraglutide on weight loss and control of diabetes, and on the other hand to assess its tolerance in this population. The expected benefit is to be able to facilitate registration on the waiting list and access to renal transplantation of these overweight patients, without having to resort to more invasive methods such as bariatric surgery.
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether consuming two different kinds of olive oil will change risk factors related to cardiovascular disease, including levels of good and bad cholesterol, levels of inflammation, and levels of gene expression.
This prospective, randomized, comparative study is intended to enroll a total of 148 patients with a BMI 30-49.9 kg/m2 undergoing surgery at Parkland Hospital. The efficacy and performance of a second-generation LMA will be compared to endotracheal intubation. A standardized anesthetic protocol that is usual and customary for the type of operation the patient is having will be provided to the anesthesia teams of enrolled subjects. The remainder of the anesthetic care of the subject will not deviate from the standard of care.
This study will help us learn more about how what a child eats can affect how their brain works.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether exercise training leads to changes in the white adipose tissue that are beneficial to the body's regulation of sugar and body weight.
