Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled intervention trial in adults aged 50+ years with overweight or obesity, which will compare three groups with different diet prescriptions: 1) pre-meal water consumption (500 ml, before each main meal) with a hypocaloric diet; 2) 1500 ml water consumed throughout the day with a hypocaloric diet; 3) hypocaloric diet with no instructions regarding water consumption. Smart water bottles will objectively assess water intake timing and volume. Urine osmolality, urine volume, and serum osmolality will be used as objective indicators of compliance with the water intake prescription. We will investigate changes in perceived hunger and fullness and appetite-regulating hormones as potential mechanisms by which premeal water could improve appetite regulation. We will also investigate the impact of water consumption and hydration on executive function capabilities, which may influence intervention adherence. Although increasing water intake could be an effective weight management strategy, no evidence-based recommendations exist for the timing of water intake needed for this benefit.
The present study is a randomized, double-blind (Double dummy), placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to assess the gut health effects of heat-killed post biotics in overweight and obese individuals
A study designed to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CT-996 in overweight/obese participants and participants with T2DM.
This study will look at how well the new medicine CagriSema helps people with excess body weight lose weight compared to another medicine, semaglutide. The participants will receive one injection once a week. The study medicine will be injected with a thin needle, typically in the stomach, thighs or upper arms. The study will last for about 1½ years.
The aim of this study is investigated the effect of high fat Ketogenic Diet (HFKD) in weight reduction compared to the low-fat diet (LFD) among Saudi overweight and obese women. A randomized acute controlled trial of twenty-eight healthy overweight or obese women in Saudi Arabia, aged between 18 and 40 with a body mass index between 25 and 34.5 kg m2 and fat parentage above 30% . The participants have followed ether HFKD or LFD for 12 weeks.
Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is the most expensive cause of workrelated disability: it causes the highest number of years lived with disability. The most severe and debilitated CLBP patients often have comorbidities such as overweight and obesity. Despite the growing body of scientific literature pointing towards the close interaction between overweight/obesity and CLBP, few treatment programs for people with CLBP nowadays take overweight into account. Therefore this study will examine the added value of a behavioral weight reduction program (changes in diet, behavior and physical exercise) to current best evidence rehabilitation (pain neuroscience education plus cognition-targeted exercise therapy) for overweight or obese people with CLBP. An international, multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing a behavioral weight reduction program combined with pain neuroscience education and cognition-targeted exercise therapy versus pain neuroscience education and cognition-targeted exercise therapy alone, will be conducted. The primary outcome is pain and the primary endpoint was chosen at 12 months follow-up; secondary outcomes include health care use and daily functioning (see detailed description of outcomes for an overview of all secondary outcomes). If the promising results of the proof of concept study are corroborated, the new intervention will have a high socio-economic impact, including an annual health care cost reduction of €66 million in Switzerland, and €60 million in Flanders, and is expected to increase life expectancy in the long term.
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if the enhanced HMZ 2.0 intervention with new control system/digital platform to regulate gestational weight gain (GWG) and impact maternal-infant outcomes while collecting implementation data works and can be given to other pregnant women in various settings. The question this study aims to answer are: 1. Does the new intervention manage GWG? 2. Does the new intervention have any influence on sleep and eating behaviors and infant outcomes. 3. Does the new platform and other data collected help inform how well the research and information can be used in health care settings? 144 pregnant women with overweight/obesity will be randomized to either the HMZ 2.0 intervention or attention control groups from ~8-36 weeks gestation. All participants will be asked to: 1. Weight themselves and wear an activity monitor each day over the study. 2. Complete online surveys at either a weekly or monthly level about their thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors on GWG, physical activity, eating behaviors, sleep, their anxiety, depression, and stress. 3. Attend weekly sessions with a registered dietician. The weekly sessions will differ based on intervention group. The HMZ 2.0 intervention group will receive education, create and follow goal-setting and action plans, self-monitor their behaviors, and receive feature evidence and fetal growth facts. Education, goals, and self-monitoring will focus on GWG, physical activity, eating behaviors, sleep, self-regulating behaviors and emotions, and preparing for labor/delivery and postpartum. The attention control group will receive weekly sessions on preparing for labor/delivery and benefits of behavioral pain management strategies (e.g., mindfulness-based relaxation, imagery, music, massage, deep-breathing) to help with pain after childbirth without medicine.
The goal of this randomized trial is to test nutrition and exercise interventions in older adults in nursing homes. The main question it aims to answer are: • What effect do nutrition and physical interventions have on physical function and quality of life in older adults with overweight or obesity? Participants' data on body composition, physical function, and diseases will be collected. Furthermore, participants will be interviewed for a questionnaire on quality of life and nutritional intake. Researchers will compare three intervention nursing homes with three control nursing homes to see if nutrition and physical interventions have on physical function and quality of life.
The main purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of orforglipron compared with insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight at increased cardiovascular risk. The study will last approximately 2 years may include up to 27 visits.
This study is being done to better understand whether meal replacements can be an effective tool for weight loss and treatment of elevated blood sugars in people with obesity/overweight and diabetes/pre-diabetes who have a low income.
