Filter by:This study will look at how CagriSema affects the blood levels of atorvastatin and warfarin. The study will look at the levels of warfarin and atorvastatin in the blood before the participant starts taking CagriSema and if this changes after the participant has taken CagriSema. The study will also investigate the effect of warfarin before and after the participant takes CagriSema and assess if the injection site affects the level of CagriSema in the blood. The study will last for about 8 months.
The purpose of this research study is to validate (check the accuracy of) laboratory assays, intravenous catheter insertion, and equipment or devices and their reproducibility, which is necessary to perform high quality research on chronic diseases (obesity, pre-diabetes and type-2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, etc.), nutrition, and metabolism (the process by which a substance is handled in your body) at the University of Missouri. As technology changes and we start to use new testing methods, it is necessary to compare results from old tests, equipment and devices and new tests, equipment, or devices and the reproducibility of these measurements to make sure we are getting accurate results. Reproducibility means performing the same test more than once to see if the same results can be achieved each time.
The study objective is to develop an accessible home food environment assessment toolkit that includes valid and reliable paper and electronic tools targeting foods known to impact diet-related health that can be user-administered across literacy levels in English and Spanish.
This study will investigate how the acute intake of foods with high and low hedonic reward differentially affects brown adipose tissue and the interplay between gut peptides, brown fat, and the brain (gut-BAT-brain axis).
The study is a single center randomized, open-label, phase IV clinical trial. Obese patients who have indication to Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) for clinical reasons are included and ESG is performed as per clinical practice. After randomization, the patients are divided in two arms: - Arm A: patients will stop proton pump inhibitors (PPI) 24h after the procedure. - Arm B: patients will assume oral Esomeprazole 40 mg twice a day for 4 weeks and 40 mg once a day for 4 weeks (total 8 weeks of PPIs after ESG- standard current treatment). The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of PPI on the structural integrity of the ESG
The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of enobosarm on total lean mass as measured by DEXA in patients maintained on GLP-1 receptor agonists.
The purpose is to optimize the EMPOWER program by integrating strategies to reduce food cravings, a critical yet often overlooked factor for long-term success in weight management. The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of craving coping strategies on weight loss outcomes by conducting a randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomized to receive one of the two strategies to manage food cravings.
In obese individuals, increased adipose tissue and systemic inflammation play a key role in the development of cardiometabolic diseases, pulmonary system dysfunction, and many respiratory diseases. Existing research has demonstrated beneficial clinical outcomes of inspiratory muscle training or combined aerobic and resistance exercise training in obese individuals. However, this focused on the isolated effects of exercise on obesity. In the current literature, no study is evaluating the effectiveness of functional inspiratory muscle training in obese individuals. This study aims to investigate the effects of functional inspiratory muscle training on body composition, cardiometabolic markers, functional capacity, respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength, and respiratory muscle performance in obese individuals.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple escalating oral doses of PF-06954522 in adult participants with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on metformin (Part A) and optionally in non-diabetic participants with obesity (Part B).
Normalizing weight gain and preventing the redistribution of body fat is a major health issue, and could help prevent the onset of various symptoms of metabolic syndrome. Above all, it is important to understand the mechanisms by which these different treatments affect adipose tissue. To this end, the investigators will first study the impact of GLP-1 analogues on adipose tissue. The main objective is to show that subjects treated with a GLP-1 agonist have a significant change in their oxytocin levels compared with subjects not treated with a GLP-1 agonist.
