Filter by:Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy operations performed for morbid obesity are among the most common methods in the world. Gastric or intestinal bypass surgery with or without sleeve gastrectomy is thought to be more effective in controlling both weight loss and metabolic diseases. For this purpose, Roux-en-y gastric bypass, transit bipartition, duodenal switch, jejunoileal bypass are performed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of jejunoileal bypass surgery on weight loss and metabolic diseases in patients with sleeve gastrectomy.
Impact of resected gastric volume on postoperative weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity. Observational study with a mathematical method to approximate the calculation of the resected gastric volume after a sleeve gastrectomy and see the outcome on weight loss.
This is an observational study of morbidly obese patients recovering from general anesthesia after weight-loss surgery. The investigators aim to assess ventilatory function and how this is influenced by the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), baseline ventilatory status, as well as pharyngeal collapsibility of patients who are recovering from anesthesia and treated for pain with opioids. The investigators hypothesize that patients with OSA, chronic (baseline) hypoventilation and increased pharyngeal collapsibility, will be more vulnerable to opioid-induced ventilatory depression.
The researchers will conduct a study for avoiding the metabolic syndrome in morbid obese patients. Thus, the aim of the present will be determine the effects of a resistance training programme (RT) in preventing or attenuating metabolic syndrome (MetS) in patients with morbid obesity. A second aim will be report the prevalence of non-responders in terms of improvements in MetS markers and other co-variables considered.
In this study to planned to research the efficacy of low-flow anesthesia on patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy due to morbid obesity on respiratory functions after surgery by examining FEV1 and FVC values and FEV1/FVC ratio.
This study evaluates whether adding home-based resistance training to a multidisciplinary specialist weight management service can promote weight loss and improve physical function, strength, power and quality of life in adults with severe obesity. The study also investigated whether performing resistance exercises as fast as possible can yield further improvements in physical function compared with traditional slow-speed resistance training. All recruited participants completed a 3-month home-based resistance training programme with behavioural support; half of the participants performed resistance exercises in a slow and controlled manner, whereas the other half performed resistance exercises with maximal intentional velocity.
The primary objective is to measure the impact of this treatment for patients with obesity of class I, or class II without co-morbidity, assessed by excess weight loss (EWL)>25%. The secondary objectives are to measure total body weight loss >5%, BMI reduction, tolerance, complications related to this technique in this indication. This study is a prospective, pilot, bi-center safety and efficacy study. 30 patients will be enrolled between APHM, Marseille et CHU L'Archet Nice
This is a 12 month prospective observational cohort study of the outpatient protein-sparing modified fast diet for children with severe obesity and serious comorbid condition(s). The study will enroll 30 Center for Healthy Weight and Nutrition patients aged 11-19 years who have been placed on a protein sparing modified fast as part of their treatment plan. The study-specific procedures consist of questionnaires/interviews on diet and PA behaviors, adherence and self-efficacy measures, data abstraction from the chart and tracking of activity using a Fitbit.
The main aim of this study was to examine whether introducing a work intervention into a traditional lifestyle rehabilitation program for persons with BMI above 30, would affect the participants' ability to work and their lifestyle change. The investigators wanted to find out how the participants experienced their health, workability and work capacity, quality of life, diet and self-efficacy before and during the intervention
To investigate the metabolic effects of a low carbohydrate versus energy-matched standard diet in morbidly obese individuals with prediabetes awaiting bariatric surgery.
