Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare a 12-month adjustable balloon over a 6-month non-adjustable balloon with 6-month dietician follow-up. The endpoint is %TBL at 12 months.
The goal of this two-site grant proposal is to determine the role of the decreased insulin-mediated muscle perfusion found in type 2 diabetes in contributing to the development of cardiac and skeletal muscle dysfunction and subsequent functional exercise impairment. In addition, it is also our goal to determine whether exercise training attenuates insulin resistance and restores insulin-mediated perfusion to the heart and to skeletal muscle, leading to improved cardiac function and exercise performance.
An open-label, multi-centre, 26-weeks clinical feasibility study. The objective is to explore whether Saxenda could be a feasible choice in the treatment of overweight, obesity and weight-related medical problems, in patients diagnosed with a severe mental illness and hospitalized at a forensic department in Denmark. We wish to determine the viability of the daily Saxenda®-injection treatment in this specific patient group.
In overweight individuals (BMI > 27.5 kg/m2), does daily consumption of mycoprotein containing Quorn Food products lower blood cholesterol compared with daily meat/fish consumption?
The overall goal is to determine the real-world feasibility and utility of body fat imaging using rapid MRI to enhance risk perception, induce behavioral change, and improve clinical outcomes in overweight and obese individuals. Here, the investigators will perform a pragmatic clinical effectiveness pilot trial using a 2x2 factorial design to test the hypothesis that provision of a detailed individualized visual report of body fat distribution directly to patients will translate into changes in patient risk perception, behavior, and improved clinical outcomes.
PhaoeSOL (Microphyt, Baillargues, France) is a microalgae-based nutritional ingredient developed with a patented production process that has New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) status from the FDA (#1120). It is an extract of the microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum standardized to 2.0% Fucoxanthin (FX) content by adding a food grade medium-chain triglyceride (MCT)-oil and a tocopherol-rich (Vitamin E) extract (0.5 % w:w). PhaeoSOL is intended for use as a source of the naturally occurring carotenoid, fucoxanthin, in food supplement products for the general population at levels not to exceed 437 mg/person/day for a maximal duration of 30 days of PhaeoSOL (equivalent to 10 mg fucoxanthin/person/day). Prior studies suggest that marine algae and Fucoxanthinol may have anti-obesity, lipid lowering, and glucose management enhancing properties. The purpose of this proof of concept pilot study is to examine whether dietary supplementation of PhaoeSOL enhances the benefits of women participating in an exercise and weight management program.
This clinical study aims to assess the efficacy of TOTUM-070, a mix of 5 plant extracts, on lipid metabolism in moderate hypercholesterolemic subjects. The hypothesis is that TOTUM-070, daily consumed, is superior to placebo for decrease of fasting blood LDL-cholesterol concentration (determined by ultracentrifugation method) after 24 weeks of consumption.
Our objective in this study is to identify the extent to which insulin drives the accumulation of lipids in skeletal muscle of humans. We will test the hypothesis that 4-hours of mild hyperinsulinemia will result in significant muscle lipid accumulation and that such effects will be similar in lean and overweight/obese humans.
This study design will test biological and behavioral mechanisms in the cross-sectional analyses and determine the prospective effects of circadian alignment and sleep on changes in cardiometabolic risk factors.
The goal of this pilot trial is to pilot test an intervention to help prevent weight gain or produce weight loss among adults with obesity. Participants are asked to self-weigh on a smart scale for one year. Feasibility and acceptability outcomes are examined.
