This study will look at how well the new medicine CagriSema helps people living with excess body weight and type 2 diabetes losing weight. Participants will either get CagriSema or a dummy medicine. Which treatment they get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 1½ years. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to get pregnant during the study period.
Obese individuals need to be evaluated comprehensively before exercise programs are determined. Determination of exercise intolerance is important for the detection of functional limitations. One minute sit to stand test (1MSTST) can be used as an alternative to cardiopulmonary exercise tests (CPET) or field tests. It is easy to use, quick to apply, valid and reliable, and applicable even in small areas. In addition, it is a simple assessment adequate for children's needs and behaviors and can be easily applied both in the clinic and at home, making it easier to use in children. Studies have shown that 1MSTST is a valid test in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, interstitial lung disease, and, healthy children and adolescents. However, no study has been found regarding the validity of its use in obese children and adolescents.The aim of our study is to investigate the validity and reliability of 1MSTST in overweight-obese children and adolescents.
The research focuses on a follow-up measure of participants in the PRALIMAP-INÈS cohort (NCT01688453 - Legrand et al. 2017). PRALIMAP-INÈS was conducted between 2012 and 2015 with the objective of showing that adapted overweight support for less advantaged adolescents has an effect equivalent to standard support for advantaged adolescents in the short term. This trial included 3 measurement times: T0 (before intervention), T1 (after intervention, at the end of the school year), T2 (after intervention) and of the school year), T2 (one year later). The proposed research is a continuation of PRALIMAP-INÈS with the addition of a 4th measurement time (T3) to study the trajectories of the intervention. (T3) to study the long-term social, economic, educational and health trajectories (in particular weight) of weight) of adolescents who have become young adults.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of two dietary supplements: MUSCLE 5, which contains protein, creatine and vitamin D and TRIM 7, which contains beet extract, caffeine, coenzyme Q10, alpha lipoic acid, forskolin extract, green coffee bean extract, green tea and vitamin E, plus exercise can induce greater 'high-quality' weight loss than exercise alone in overweight and obese men and women. First, the investigators will examine whether the addition of these two supplements to a mixed exercise regime (e.g., aerobic and resistance training) induces greater improvements in typical training adaptations (aerobic capacity, upper & lower body muscle strength, lean mass, ASM, fat mass, % body fat, and lean mass/fat mass). Secondly, the investigators will assess improvements in pro- and anti-inflammatory factors, insulin sensitivity, and blood lipids. Third, the investigators will determine effects on perceived stress, sleep quality, hair & nail growth, and health-related quality of life. Overweight men and women will be randomized to either exercise alone or exercise plus supplement for 12 weeks. Training will include mixed exercise (aerobic and resistance) three days per week and supplements will be taken on a daily basis. Before and after the 12-week training period the investigators will assess A) Body weight, BMI, DXA outcomes (total lean mass, total body fat, % body fat, ASM, and lean mass/fat mass), waist circumference, VO2max, and upper/lower body maximal strength, B) Circulatory inflammatory factors, antioxidants, blood lipids, and oral glucose tolerance/insulin sensitivity (OGTT), C) Perceived stress, sleep quality, hair & nail growth, and health-related quality of life and D) Overall Health Index. Benefits of the study to participants may include weight loss and improved health (irrespective of weight loss). Benefits of the study to the scientific community include improved understanding of how high-quality protein- and antioxidant-containing supplements, combined with mixed exercise, affect weight loss and overall health in men and women. Thus, the investigators will be comparing men and women to determine if the response to supplementation and exercise is similar or different between the sexes.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LY3541105 in healthy and overweight participants. Blood tests will be performed to check how much LY3541105 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it. The study will also evaluate the effects of LY3541105 on body weight and assess safety and tolerability of LY3541105. This is a 3-part study and may last up to 15, 26 and 24 weeks for each participant and may include up to 7, 15 and 16 visits in parts A, B and C, respectively.
Nearly half of women have obesity and/or hypertension (HTN). Specific to women, pregnancy creates a vulnerable window for excess gestational weight gain (GWG), exacerbating intergenerational risks for obesity, HTN, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) across the lifespan. Healthy lifestyles are the first-line recommendations for prevention and treatment of overweight/obesity, HTN, T2D, and CVD. The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) is a well-established, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-led public health program focusing on healthy lifestyle changes and is effective at reducing 5-7% of body weight, lowering risks for T2D. Interestingly, research investigating the DPP as a lifestyle intervention for other chronic conditions (i.e., overweight/obesity and HTN) is lacking, demonstrating a missed opportunity. The aim of this study is to determine the initial effects of the first 6-months and after receiving the full 12-months of the virtual DPP compared to the DPP expanded with a CDC-approved HTN prevention component (DPP+) on physical activity, diet, weight, and CVD risk factors in 30 prediabetic women (18-45 years old) with a history of excess GWG, overweight/obesity, and HTN. Participants will be recruited through University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) community-based clinics using Epic. The Participants will be randomized into 2 groups (DPP and DPP+) and guided through the 12-month virtual DPP or DPP+ program using UTMB DPP personnel.
Moderate hypercholesterolemia, metabolic alterations derived from overweight or obesity, and consequently and their related cardiovascular risks can be reduced through changes in lifestyle. A growing body of evidence shows a relationship between hypercholesterolemia and dysfunction of the gut microbiota. Gut microbiota is considered a keystone in maintaining the health condition of the host through multiple mechanisms affecting different metabolic processes, including lipid metabolism and cholesterol-related pathways. Bile acids (BA) are cholesterol-derived compounds synthesized in the liver and metabolized upon modification by gut bacteria once they reach the colon. Conversely, BAs shape the composition and function of the intestinal microbiota. This mutual interplay between BAs and gut microbiota regulates many physiological processes, including the lipid, carbohydrate and energy metabolism of the host. Previous studies based on Lactobacillus plantarum have shown 3 strains CECT 7527, 7528, and 7529 with the ability to adhere to the intestinal mucosa with very low toxicity, what makes them susceptible to be used as a probiotic. The lipid-lowering effect of the 3 bacteria strains was already evidenced in previous preclinical studies in animal models and clinical studies in hypercholesterolemic subjects. Up to now, however, little is known about the effects of the 3- combined Lactobacillus plantarum strains on levels and profile of bile acids in healthy overweight subjects, otherwise at low cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study is to explore on the mechanism of action of a Lactobacillus plantarum mixture (CECT 7527, CECT 7528 and CECT 7529) and evaluate the effect of this probiotic formulation on BA profile as well as on plasma lipids and other related biomarkers when administered in a dose-dependent regime in a cohort of overweight subjects. The probiotic product was administrated for 4 weeks with a weekly dose-regime of 2x, 3x, and 4x, respectively, in the second, third, and fourth week in relation to the first week. The effects were evaluated on: (1) level and profile of bile acids in plasma and feces, (2) plasma lipid/lipoprotein and fatty acid profile and (3) endocrine hormones, glucose metabolism and inflammatory markers in plasma.
46 eligible overweight women with hypovitaminosis D are assigned to either vitamin D or control group using block randomization method. Vitamin D3 pearl (Zahravi Pharma Co, Tabriz, Iran) containing 50000 IU cholecalciferol or placebo are administered weekly for 12 weeks. Participants in both groups are structured to hold their sun exposure and physical activity habits and not take any vitamin supplements during the study.
