Filter by:The purpose of the study: To develop a differentiated management strategy for obese children based on the analysis of the relationship between their clinical, metabolic, immunological and microbiological status Research objectives: 1. To give a clinical and metabolic characteristic of a group of obese children (age, gender, degree of obesity, body mass index SDS, the presence of complications of obesity, clinical signs of metabolic syndrome, laboratory markers: AlT, AsT, cholesterol, high and low density lipoproteins, uric acid, insulin, leptin). 2. To study the immunological indicators of inflammation in obese children (the level of highly sensitive CRP, proinflammatory cytokines - IL-1b, IL-6, IL-10, IL-18, TNF-α). 3. To assess the state of the intestinal microbiota in obese children by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. 4. To analyze the relationship of clinical-metabolic, immunological and microbiological status in obese children and identify markers associated with metabolic syndrome and the formation of complications. Materials and methods: At stage 1, it is planned to conduct a cohort study in a group of school-age children with obesity (n=120) with the study of their clinical, metabolic, immunological and microbiological status. The control group will consist of healthy children of the appropriate age who are not overweight (n= 20). Stage 2 of the study consists in prospective observation of children of the examined group who do not have complications and clinical manifestations of metabolic syndrome for 6 months against the background of standard therapeutic measures (diet, lifestyle correction, physical activity) and repeated clinical and laboratory examination.
The purpose of this observational study is to measure how many people are overweight or obese amongst patients with a diagnosed cardiovascular disease (CVD). The study also aims to characterise the population including the presence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in a number of countries across the globe representing different geographies, ethnicities, as well as different healthcare systems.
This is an observational, prospective Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4 milligram [mg]) Pregnancy Registry Study. The aim of this study is to compare the maternal, foetal, and infant outcomes of pregnant women who are exposed to Wegovy during pregnancy for the treatment of obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbid condition with outcomes in an internal comparison cohort of pregnant women with obesity or overweight with at least one weight related comorbid condition at conception and who are not exposed to Wegovy or other glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) during pregnancy. Infant outcomes will be assessed throughout the infant's first year of life, with active data collection by the registry occurring at 4 and 12 months after delivery.
This is a 6-week ketogenic diet (KD) intervention where participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) will follow a KD plan, supervised and monitored by a dietician. Participants will be provided extensive educational and ongoing support on the KD, including personalized coaching with the ability to text a dietitian at any time and expect a response within 12 hours. Diet adherence and progress will be assessed daily using at-home blood ketone/glucose monitors, along with diet records. Participants will fill out health related questionnaires and undergo assessments of body composition, RA disease activity. This study also includes blood draws and fat biopsy of the abdominal region.
The goal of this trial is to learn how well Setmelanotide works to improve weight reduction, hunger, and quality of life in patients 4 years of age and older with acquired Hypothalamic Obesity (HO). To determine how well setmelanotide works and how safe it is, patients with HO will take a daily injection of either setmelanotide or placebo and complete trial assessments for up to 60 weeks.
This is a prospective collection of data from adult patients who have had an endoscopic metabolic and bariatric endoscopy procedure (EMBT) for primary or revision surgical procedures for obesity.
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 goal of this clinical trial is to improve cancer patient's health, survival, and quality of life by dispelling risk behaviors for Northwestern Memorial Health Care (NMHC) patients who are cancer survivors. The main question[s] STELLAR aims to answer are: - How best to combine three behavior interventions (physical activity promotion, smoking cessation, obesity treatment) into one treatment. - Evaluate the reach of the program. We will look at the number, proportion, and representativeness of participants in terms of disease characteristics, socioeconomic status, telehealth readiness, and race/ethnicity. - Evaluate the effects of the STELLAR program relative to enhanced usual care (information provision) on cancer risk behaviors, patient care access, care quality, and communication. Participants will be provided goals related to their physical activity, smoking, and/or weight loss and asked to track their health behaviors via an app, excel file, or on paper. At baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months into the study, participants will provide survey responses and physical measurements like height and weight. Additionally, those in the STELLAR group will complete 16 telehealth sessions with study staff to discuss progress towards their study goals. Researchers will compare the STELLAR intervention group to the Enhanced Usual Care group to see if the STELLAR intervention group is able to reach more participants that Enhances Care only.
The specific aims and objectives of this proposal are to: 1. Evaluate a food pantry's weekly food distribution impact on behavioral, social and health outcomes in families. 2. In a subset of families with a child aged 6-17 years, test a pilot intervention offering the following components, with a goal of improving family behavioral, social and health outcomes: 1. Weekly family food packages from the Revere Food Pantry 2. 6-Monthly group sessions that include information on healthy behaviors, chronic disease management and teaching families how to prepare simple recipes based on the food they receive that week from the food pantry.
Research; It is a planned, non-invasive, controlled study in obese female volunteers and non-obese female volunteers. The population of the study consists of voluntarily non-obese women and obese women. Sarcopenia assets of individuals will be measured with the sarc-f questionnaire, and then muscle strength, muscle mass and physical performance tests will be measured. Then, rectus femoris muscle thickness will be measured with USG, and then walking and balance will be measured with ZEBRIS.
