The prevalence of obesity among U.S. adults is ~40% and is projected to climb. It is well documented that obesity is associated with increased levels of disability as well as risk for numerous adverse health-related outcomes; including occurrence of stroke and all-cause mortality. Obesity is highly prevalent in stroke survivors (~30-45% of stroke survivors have BMI>30) and is associated with reductions in physical function and increased disability. Furthermore, neurological sequelae following stroke result in a myriad of residual impairments that contribute to significant reductions in physical activity, which further increase the risk for obesity. The alarmingly high (and increasing) rates of obesity amongst stroke survivors represents an area of critical clinical need and, despite an abundance of information regarding weight loss approaches in neurologically healthy individuals, there is a lack of information regarding the impact of intentional weight loss on overweight and obese survivors of stroke. Thus, the purpose of this study it investigate the effect of varying weight loss approaches on physical function and psychosocial outcomes in chronic stroke survivors.
Metabolic surgery has, among all obesity treatments, the best long term efficacy, but weight regain (weight regain, WR) or insufficient weight loss (IWL) are relatively common. These are hard to treat, with dietary treatment often failing, and redo surgery being commonly proposed.The ketogenic diet is vastly utilised to obtain weight loss in obesity, but little data is available regarding its application on post bariatric patients. Ad hoc designed studies are needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of a VLCKD in the treatment of WR and IWL. The aim of this study is to test whether the ketogenic diet is a safe and effective treatment in post bariatric weight regain, compared to its application before bariatric surgery.
The study is designed to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and transformation within the human body of INV-202 investigational drug in the treatment of adult participants with obesity and metabolic syndrome.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the potential effectiveness of adding Continuous Glucose Monitoring to a personalized weight loss maintenance program in improving weight loss maintenance. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the feasibility and acceptability of wearing a continuous glucose monitoring device in people maintaining weight loss? - Is using continuous glucose monitoring will help to change the food and physical activity behavior in people maintaining weight loss? Participants will be randomized into control and intervention groups where the researchers will compare the effects of wearing continuous glucose monitoring devices on behavior change in both groups.
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of once daily oral treatment with orforglipron compared with placebo on body weight in adult participants with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes. The study will last about 77 weeks and may include up to 22 visits.
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the clinical safety, durability, and weight loss outcomes of the hybrid argon plasma coagulation + endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (HAPC-ESG) procedure when compared to traditional endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) alone. ESG was proven to be feasible in human subjects in 2013 and since then has become the most commonly performed endoscopic bariatric remodeling procedure. However, this procedure may be enhanced with the addition of the hybrid argon plasma coagulation (HAPC) technique, leading to enhanced weight loss, durability, and metabolic benefits. Argon plasma coagulation (APC) is a method of non-contact thermal hemostasis initially created to assist in inducing hemostasis utilizing a high-frequency current to the targeted area. This is a validation study of a pilot randomized control trial which will evaluate the safety, durability, and effects on weight loss of the combined HAPC-ESG approach when compared to traditional ESG alone.
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of once daily oral orforglipron in adult participants with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbidities.
TeTrimTeas intends is to establish a long-term cooperative with local growers and producers who will become partners in the business, with profit share to local growers and producers. The overall aim of the company is to produce quality, science-based botanical/herbal teas to improve health and wellbeing, growing as many of the ingredients locally and organically, to reduce food-to-fork miles within the decarbonisation and sustainability agendas in Wales. TeTrimTeas have created herbal green tea blends, improving on existing Chinese formulation, and would like to test it as 'health tea'. The recruited cohort will be randomised into one of three intervention teas (green tea control, senna herbal mix and rhubarb root herbal mix). They would like to explore if consumption of the teas for 21 days has an impact on digestion and potentially help control weight gain. Aberystwyth University will use high resolution metabolomics to investigate the chemical composition of capillary blood samples, in particular the short chain fatty acids. They will also assess lipid composition in capillary bloods and the microbiome of stools. Diet data, stool consistency and anthropometric measurements will be collected pre and post intervention. Results will advance product development and data would be used in grant applications into the health benefits of the herbal teas.
This randomized crossover study compares gastric residual volume after ingestion of carbohydrate drinks and water in obese volunteers. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is it safe for obese patients to shorten their fasting by allowing preoperative drinks? - How long is the gastric emptying time in obese patients? Participants also will be evaluated the level of thirst/hungry and blood sugar.
