Filter by:The purpose of this research is to test if playing games designed to improve an individual's executive function can change their views about the types of foods they eat. Executive function is a set of mental processes that people use every day to make decisions - such as what kinds of foods they choose to eat and when and where they eat those foods.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of retatrutide on renal function in participants with overweight or obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD), with or without Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The study will lasts around 31 weeks.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of retatrutide once-weekly in participants who have obesity or are overweight and have osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The study will lasts about 77 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide in participants with type 2 diabetes in participants who have obesity or overweight (J1I-MC-GZBK master protocol) including a subset of participants who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (J1I-MC-GSA2). The study will last about 89 weeks and will include up to 24 visits.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide in participants who have obesity or overweight (J1I-MC-GZBJ master protocol) including subsets of participants who have knee osteoarthritis (OA) (J1I-MC-GOA1) or who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (J1I-MC-GSA1). This study will last about 89 weeks and will include up to 24 visits.
In the study Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Managing Obesity in People with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) the investigators will test whether CBT programme is effective for weight loss and weight maintenance after the treatment programme in patients with obesity, chronic kidney disease and proteinuria. The investigators will test whether subjects randomised to the intervention group and receiving cognitive behavioural therapy can achieve greater weight loss and proteinuria reduction in chronic kidney disease than subjects randomised to the control group and not receiving cognitive behavioural therapy. Both groups of subjects will be counselled by a dietician to improve their diet and reduce excess weight and to kinesiologist for advice on physical activity.
The aim of this study is to develop a proof of concept establishing a causal relationship between glycemia improvement through combination of polyphenols-rich botanical extracts or polyphenols-rich botanical extracts associated with white kidney bean extract and chromimum picolinate + zinc bisglycinate with chronic supplementation. Chronic glycemia improvement will be assessed by following the evolution of HbA1c, postprandial glucose and insulin kinetics, and questionnaires. The study design is double blinded randomized with 3 arms and 29 volunteers per arm.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial] is to investigate the effects of a 12-week time restricted eating (TRE) and exercise combined intervention, as compared to (i) TRE alone, and to (ii) Caloric Restriction (CR) plus the same exercise intervention elicited by the TRE group, on Skeletal muscle tissue (SMT) quantity, quality and function (primary outcome), Resting energy expenditure (REE) and cardiometabolic health (secondary outcomes), and miRNA biomarkers in postmenopausal women with overweight or obesity.
Despite availability of many alternative and conventional weight loss options, the prevalence of obesity increased from 15% in 1993 to 27 in 2015. In 2015, 68% of men and 58% of women in the UK were overweight or obese. Overweight and obesity increase the risk for comorbidities such as hypertension, dyslipidaemia, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. Hormonal regulation of appetite has been shown to influence body weight and body fat . Gut hormones secreted from the intestine are particularly important both in the regulation of appetite and blood glucose level, and recently the gut hormone Glucagon Like Peptide -1 (GLP-1) has been successfully targeted to treat both type 2 diabetes and obesity. Targeting the gut microbiota has been shown to influence gut hormones, in a way is likely to help treat or prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes. In past decades, considerable attention has been given to investigating the new applications of natural prebiotic polymers on gut microbiota composition. Moreover, recent trend in research indicates a bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the central nervous system through the microbiome-gut-brain axis (MGBA). Therefore an in vivo intervention feeding study is proposed performed with a variety of psychological and nutritional tests aiming to compare io fibrewater with an equivalent placebo control water and also highlight both cognitive function, emotional bias and response to appetite and also metabolic profiles of the gut microbiota.
This study is open to women with overweight or obesity who are otherwise healthy. Women with a body mass index (BMI) from 27 to 40 kg/m2 can participate. The purpose of this study is to find out whether taking multiple doses of BI 456906 influences the amount of ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel in the blood. Ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel are ingredients of the contraceptive Microgynon®. The study has 2 treatment periods. In Period 1, participants get 1 tablet of Microgynon®. In Period 2, participants get weekly injections of BI 456906 for 7 months. The doses of BI 456906 increase each month. At 8 specific timepoints during Period 2, participants also get 1 tablet of Microgynon®. Participants visit the study site up to 40 times. At 8 visits, participants take Microgynon® and stay overnight at the site. During the visits, the doctors collect information about participants' health and take blood samples from the participants. They compare the amount of ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel in the blood in Period 2 with the amounts in Period 1. Doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
