Filter by:The goal of this study is to identify an intervention that improves sleep health and consequently metabolic health by examining whether sleep extension or enforced regularity in short sleepers will have beneficial effects on diabetes and obesity risk.
The eMOTION Study is a two-part ORBIT model phase 1 trial. The first part, called the Formative Study, will assess acceptability and feasibility of a novel physical activity intervention in adults at increased risk for cancer due to overweight or obesity.
The main purpose of this study, performed under a master protocol W8M-MC-CWMM (NCT06143956), is to investigate weight management efficacy and safety with LY3305677 compared with placebo and in adult participants with obesity or overweight. The study will last about 62 weeks.
The purpose of this research is to test how eating a meal containing beans impacts how participants' bodies use food for energy.
This is a study of HS-20094 in participants with overweight and obesity. The main purpose is to learn more about how HS-20094 affects body weight. The study period including 4-12 weeks dose titration and 12-20 weeks maintain treatment and 6 weeks follow up.
The purpose of the study is to understand how mothers think and feel about feeding their babies and putting them to sleep, understand more about programs that can support mothers taking care of babies, and how professionals can be most helpful in helping mothers make decisions about their baby's feeding and sleeping. The overarching goal is to prevent early life obesity and progression to metabolic syndrome in high-risk populations, starting with healthy toddler weights by age 2 years.
This study plans to learn more about the feasibility and acceptability of integrating the Move physical activity support program within an existing lifestyle intervention program.
This study is a pilot clinical trial of a new guided self-help CBT for binge eating. Participants will complete an intake assessment; following determination of eligibility, participants will then complete four months of treatment (weekly guided self-help sessions). At the end of treatment, participants will complete an interview with a research clinician to assess outcomes.
Over 130 million adults in the US experience overweight and obesity, and rural communities experience significantly higher rates of obesity and related chronic diseases. Although lifestyle interventions successfully produce clinically significant weight losses, the availability of weight management programs is limited in rural areas. Digital interventions offer an attractive alternative for delivering lifestyle programs to rural populations. However, in-person behavioral obesity treatment programs achieve better weight losses than digital programs, likely because in-person programs typically include personnel-intensive "high touch" treatment components. Some studies indicate that having a human "behind the curtain" of a digital program through emailed feedback or with the addition of online group sessions can significantly increase weight loss. Therefore, the aims of this study are to increase the public health impact of digital obesity treatment for rural populations by simultaneously investigating 3 "high touch" intervention components. The investigators will conduct a highly efficient experiment with participants residing in non-urban areas recruited online from across the United States. Participants (N=616; 22% racial/ethnic minority; 40% male) will be randomized to: (1) weekly facilitated synchronous group video sessions (yes vs. no); (2) type of self-monitoring feedback received (counselor-crafted vs. pre-scripted); and (3) individual coaching calls (yes vs. no). These components will be layered onto our 24-week evidence-based, interactive digital weight loss program delivered to groups of eligible individuals. Based on the results of the experiment, The investigators will identify an optimized program in which each component (or combination of components) contributes meaningfully (at least 1.5 kg greater weight loss at 6-months) to enhanced weight loss. The investigators will also exploratory analyses of weight trajectories 6-months post-treatment (i.e., at 12-months) to elucidate extended impact of the specific components on weight control. Ultimately, this research will set the stage for confirming the most promising digital behavioral weight loss intervention that can be used without geographic borders to reduce obesity rates among rural residents and provide the evidence needed to establish best practice policies for broadly effective digital approaches to weight control.
The purpose of this research is to better understand how people's background, habits, and other factors influence their diets and health.
