Filter by:The goal of this randomized control trial is to compare the effect of a liquid formula rich in nutrients and low in calories (supplement) with the progressive diet with conventional foods that we usually recommend in patients after surgery. The main question it aims to answer is if the addition of a high-protein, volume-controlled nutritional supplement as a fundamental part of the diet during the first two months after surgery will preserve the patient's nutritional status and prevent the appearance of nutritional deficits and associated complications. Participants will be evaluated at the beginning, at 1 month and at the end of the study (2m) and the following determinations will be made: - Analytical determination - Nitrogen balance by determining urea N2 in 24-hour urine - Anthropometric determinations - Body composition determined by impedanciometry - Resting energy expenditure and nutrient oxidation measured by indirect calorimetry. - Energy, protein and hydration intake. - Gastrointestinal tolerance through self-registration of symptoms. Researchers will compare the effect of a complete hypocaloric liquid formula group with the usual progressive diet group to see if they achieve the protein intake goal established for patients after obesity surgery, preservation of nutritional status and lean mass during the rapid phase of weight loss and the gastrointestinal tolerance during the first two months after surgery.
In our study, there are 33 healthy children with normal weight (control group) and 52 obese children who will be treated with metformin. To observe the efficacy of the 3-month treatment before and after metformin treatment, Zn, Zinc α-2 Glycoprotein (ZAG), Peroxisome proliferation activating receptor γ (PPARγ), Leptin (LEP) and Adiponectin (ADIPO) levels were compared, as well as anthropometric measurements and routine biochemistry tests.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to test combination of STOP-Bang score and factors predicting difficult intubation can improve accuracy of prediction difficult mask ventilation in obese patients that undergoing to elective surgery under general anesthesia. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Can combination of STOP-Bang score and factors predicting difficult intubation improve accuracy of prediction difficult mask ventilation in obese patients? - Study about complication after endotracheal tube insertion in obese patients that undergoing to elective surgery under general anesthesia. Participants who undergoing to elective surgery under general anesthesia will - Routine preoperative evaluation and ask about STOP bang questions, evaluate neck circumference, Mallampati grade,Thyromental distance (That routine physical examination for anesthetic care pre-operation) - In operation room, patients will be inducted anesthesia by anesthesiologist (step routine for general anesthesia),observe difficult mask ventilation grading before intubate endotracheal tube and complication after endotracheal tube insertion. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare obese patients with/without high STOP bang score >=3 point plus factor predicting difficult intubation (Mallampati grade 3-4, Neck circumference > 42 cm, Thyromental distance < 6 cm)to prediction difficult mask ventilation
The purpose of this survey is to collect information for scientific research and to identify the impact of overweight and obesity on health-related quality of life.
Although the use of wetting solutions during high-volume liposuction is a standard approach, it is unclear how to optimize wetting solutions and components and their effect on postoperative complications.. Since the super-wet technique (aspiration of 1 cc per 1 cc of infiltrate) was introduced in 1986, it has become one of the most frequently applied techniques worldwide . Adrenaline and lidocaine are often added to WS due to their hemostatic and analgesic effects One of the major advantages of super-wet technique is that blood loss is quite low. However, potential cardiovascular side effects of WS and the amounts of epinephrine and lidocaine they contain, such as volume overload, local anesthetic toxicity, hypertension, arrhythmia, and tachycardia, are still a scoop of investigation. In this study, we examined the WS and the medications it contains from a different perspective to understand the possible cause of these adverse outcomes. Despite the most suitable candidates for liposuction are patients with a BMI<30 kg/m2 and low comorbidity and age, the patient group undergoing liposuction is often obese, and overweight individuals require that obesity-related pathophysiological changes be taken into consideration. Therefore, we analyzed the patients by dividing them into two groups according to the amount of WS applied according to their IBW (WS/IBW≤90ml/kg: group I and WS/IBW>90ml/kg: group I). In this study we aimed to evaluate the effect of wetting solutions and components calculated according to ideal body weight (IBW) on postoperative complications
The aim of this study is to compare the impact of 4 different types of front of package (FOP) food and beverage messages: 1) green labels on healthy foods, 2) red/yellow/green labels on less healthy/moderately healthy/healthy foods, 3) physical activity calorie equivalent labels, and 4) posters reminding consumers of the sweetened beverage tax on consumers' beverage and snack selections.
The study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ib/IIa clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of GZR18 injection in Chinese adult obese/overweight patients. This study is divided into Part A and Part B, which are to be conducted simultaneously.
Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) has demonstrated its efficacy in achieving sustainable weight loss and alleviating associated comorbidities. The primary objective of our investigation is to assess the long-term impact and sustainability of weight loss, the remission of T2D as well as risk prediction of cardiovascular events following MBS concerning one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and duodenojejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (DJB-SG).
The recently discovered association of the hormones 'asprosin, adropin and irisin' with obesity and metabolic status, as well as the fact that periodontal diseases are affected by obesity and nutrition bilaterally, have led us to investigate the relationship between selected target markers and periodontal disease. The primary aim and main objective of this study is to increase the knowledge and to direct future researches as a result of the lack of adequate research in the past and the very limited investigations with these hormones in dentistry and periodontology. Our study was conducted on 122 patients who applied to Adıyaman University Faculty of Dentistry and were referred to the Department of Periodontology for routine periodontal controls. Participants' gender, age, height, weight, BMI, education level, tooth brushing and flossing habits as well as clinical parameters PI, GI, SCD, CAS and SDI were noted. Participants were divided into 4 groups as healthy, gingivitis, initial periodontitis and advanced periodontitis and grouped according to the current periodontal classification of 2017. DOS was collected from the groups for examination and 'asprosin, adropin and irisin' values in the samples were evaluated by ELISA test.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of a high vitamin K diet intervention on vitamin K, insulin, osteocalcin serum levels and the cardiovascular risk percentage in normal weight and overweight or obese young adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Does a diet intervention containing 500mcg of vitamin K increases serum vitamin K levels? • Are vitamin K serum levels after the 500mcg of vitamin K diet intervention associated with insulin and osteocalcin serum levels or the cardiovascular risk percentage in normal weight and overweight or obese young adults? Participants will have to follow a diet intervention that contains 500mcg of vitamin K, given as a cyclic menu for 6 weeks. Also, participants will have to assist weekly to nutritional monitoring and to report any situation they observed regarding the intervention during this study. Researchers will compare normal weight and overweight or obese groups with diet intervention with normal weight and overweight or obese groups without diet intervention and only dietetic recommendations to see if vitamin K serum levels, insulin, osteocalcin and the cardiovascular risk percentage improve after the 6 weeks diet intervention.
