Filter by:The aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial LI-PAD is to identify whether a 6-month intervention approach to individually optimize lifestyle behavior, physical activity, and diet, is feasible and leads to larger improvements in body weight, cardiovascular disease risk factors, and health-related quality of life compared to simple written lifestyle advice, in individuals with overweight or obesity. The intervention group will be offered individual support for lifestyle behavioral change (precision health) and the control group will be offered written lifestyle advice, following national recommendations. In total, 60 population-based participants and 60 controls from the Gothenburg area, aged 45-65 years, will be recruited.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the function of the adjustment procedure with the Spatz4 in subjects with a BMI ≥ 27.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of a comprehensive intervention that combines breastfeeding support with a diabetes prevention-based program (DPP) on postpartum weight retention and lactation duration among women with pre-pregnancy overweight or obesity. This intervention, named eMOMS, is delivered by a certified health coach via a mobile health (mHealth) application.
This study will comprise a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending-dose, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study of ZT002 in participants with Overweight or Obesity.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the abundance of a natural odour in human cerebrospinal fluid in obese and lean participants after inhalation thereof. Participants will undergo blood sample collection and inhalation of either a natural odour or placebo through an inhaler in addition to a liquor puncture prescribed in standard of care context.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-component lifestyle interventions during pregnancy on promoting appropriate gestational weight gain, preventing GDM, and improving pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes among overweight or obese pregnant women. The intervention strategies are developed based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health (via WeChat Public Account in smartphone), and will be conducted online and offline. This study will recruit and follow-up 200 overweight or obese singleton pregnant women (pre-pregnancy BMI≥24 kg/m2) during the first trimester of pregnancy from Weifang maternal and Child Health Center, Shandong Province, China. The 200 overweight or obese pregnant women will be randomly allocated at a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control group, stratified by the categorical variables of age, BMI and parity. Participants in the control group will be provided usual prenatal care. The lifestyle intervention will last for approximately 6 months (from 10-14 weeks to 32-36 weeks of gestation). Follow-up timepoints included 10-14 weeks of gestation,24-28 weeks of gestation,32-36 weeks of gestation. The interventions are composed of health education related to gestational weight gain and healthy lifestyles, diet modification, active physical activity, regular individual in-person and telephone sessions, diet behavior monitoring, physical activity monitoring, and weight monitoring with Huawei smart watch. The hypothesis is that lifestyle interventions based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health will result in more appropriate gestational weight gain and lower risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes compared with usual care.
This project comprises an initial crossover placebo-controlled neurophysiological study to ascertain the effect of acute ketone ester ingestion on motor cortex plasticity, followed by a second 2-week intervention study aimed to compare the effect of a ketogenic diet versus ketone ester supplementation on motor cortex plasticity, resting brain function and structure, and metabolic and neuroendocrine responses.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate if a single bout of AM vs PM resistance exercise has different effects on insulin sensitivity and sleep. A randomized cross-over trial be used to compare resistance exercise at two different times of the day. Each condition will take place in a laboratory setting. Each condition will consist of exercise, overnight sleep, and oral glucose tolerance tests the following day. The AM exercise will occur ~1.5 hours after habitual wake, and PM exercise will occur ~11 hours after habitual wake. After a 2-6 week washout, participants will complete the other condition. The hypothesis is that PM exercise will be more beneficial than AM exercise in improving insulin sensitivity. This study could identify if there is a better time of day to perform resistance exercise to decrease risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
To examine the acute changes in cardiometabolic and neurocognitive outcomes in response to exercise combined with ketone ester supplement in overweight/obese adults.
The prevalence of obesity and obesity-related diseases are on the rise worldwide. The widely accepted approach in dietary treatment of obesity is the calorie-restricted three meals-three snacks a day diet; however, alternative approaches are needed. This study was conceived with a view to comparing time-restricted eating, a method which can be easily conveyed and applied in overcoming obesity, to a six meals a day diet. 174 participants aged between 18-65 with a BMI>25 kg/m2 were included. Diet lists with similar calorie, macro counts suitable for their respective group were prepared. Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, blood tests were analyzed before the study and at the end of the 8-week.
