Filter by: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.
This trial aims to evaluate the impact on cardiovascular risk control in individuals in risk of being affected by hepatic steatosis through the implementation of a screening test (Fatty Liver Index) in Primary Care. Medical teams in a primary care center will be divided into 2 groups, with one group using the screening test in their clinical practice. The number of interventions on cardiovascular risk occurring in patients attended by each group of medical teams will be evaluated and compared.
Safety and efficacy evaluation of the BariTon™, BariaTek Medical gastric restriction and biliodigestive diversion device.
The purpose of this study is to collect preliminary data on the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effects of a novel, remotely delivered resistance training program.
The primary purpose of this project is to observe the effects of Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy-based weight-loss mobile application (Bi' Kilo) in 4 essential areas (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive) in overweight and obese individuals and to test whether these effects will persist after ten weeks. In this context, the original value of the proposed study is that a mobile application will be produced that is suitable for the culture and whose effectiveness has been scientifically proven. In our current project proposal, the measurements of the participants will be evaluated holistically together with both tests and inventories, as well as physical measurements and biochemical data. In this study, the usability of the mobile application to be developed will also be evaluated and reported. The study group of the research will consist of overweight and obese individuals. The first stage will be a pilot study to identify the shortcomings of the Bi'Kilo mobile application. After eliminating the deficiencies of the Bi' Kilo mobile application, a working group will be formed in the second phase of the research. At this stage, the sample will be divided into two different groups within the scope of the study and a study group and a control group will be formed. The study consists of three phases as preparation, implementation, and follow-up. Measurements of the participants will be made at the beginning (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive), at the end of the six-week implementation phase (Anthropometric), and at the end of the four-week follow-up phase (Anthropometric, Biochemical, Psychometric, Cognitive).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about low-grade inflammation in healthy individuals and individuals with overweight or obesity. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether it is possible to predict low-grade inflammation - What are the medical, biological, and lifestyle variables related to low-grade inflammation? Participants will be asked to: 1. Attend a general medical visit to collect vital signs, anthropometric measurements, and collect blood samples. 2. Complete questionnaires and collect a stool sample at home.
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin works in healthy adults versus those who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. The study will use a drug called alpelisib, which interferes with insulin's actions in the body, to answer the study's main question: does the liver continue to respond to insulin's stimulation of fat production even when it loses the ability to stop making glucose (sugar) in response to insulin. Researchers will compare the impact of single doses of both alpelisib and placebo (inert non-drug) in random order (like flipping a coin) in study participants. Participants will be asked to stay twice overnight in the hospital, take single doses of alpelisib and placebo (one or the other on each of the two hospital stays), and receive intravenous (into the vein) infusions of non-radioactive "tracer" molecules that allow researchers to measure the production of glucose (sugar) and fats by the liver. Measurements will be done both overnight, while participants are asleep and fasting (not eating or drinking other than water) and while consuming a standardized diet of nutritional beverages during the following day. The objective is to evaluate the effect of lowering insulin levels, while maintaining constant mild hyperglycemia, on plasma glucose and lipid levels.
The main objective of the study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AMG 133 after a single subcutaneous (SC) administration in overweight or obese Chinese participants.
This study is open to healthy people and people with overweight or obesity. It has 2 parts. Part A is open to healthy men between 18 and 55 years of age. Part B is open to people between 18 and 65 years of age with overweight or obesity who are otherwise healthy. The purpose of this study is to find out how well different doses of BI 3034701 are tolerated by healthy men (Part A) and people with overweight or obesity (Part B). Another goal of this study is to find out how different doses of BI 3034701 are taken up in the blood. Participants get different doses of BI 3034701 or placebo as an injection under the skin. In Part A, every participant gets a single dose. In Part B, every participant gets several doses of BI 3034701 or placebo. In this study, BI 3034701 is given to humans for the first time. Participants in Part A are in the study up to 10 weeks. During this time, they visit the study site 8 times. Participants in Part B are in the study for about 6 months. They visit the study regularly. At some of the visits, participants in both parts stay at the study site for up to 5 nights. During the study, the doctors collect information on any health problems of the participants.
The main objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of BI 1820237 alone, BI 456906 alone, combination of BI 1820237 and BI 456906 versus placebo on brain activity.
