Filter by:The primary purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate whether the consumption of pigmented rice (black rice) in the diet improves cardiovascular health, specifically body weight, lipids, and glucose levels. It also aims to know whether people enjoyed eating pigmented rice and if they would continue eating it.
The purpose of this observational study is to measure how many people are overweight or obese amongst patients with a diagnosed cardiovascular disease (CVD). The study also aims to characterise the population including the presence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in a number of countries across the globe representing different geographies, ethnicities, as well as different healthcare systems.
This is an observational, prospective Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4 milligram [mg]) Pregnancy Registry Study. The aim of this study is to compare the maternal, foetal, and infant outcomes of pregnant women who are exposed to Wegovy during pregnancy for the treatment of obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbid condition with outcomes in an internal comparison cohort of pregnant women with obesity or overweight with at least one weight related comorbid condition at conception and who are not exposed to Wegovy or other glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) during pregnancy. Infant outcomes will be assessed throughout the infant's first year of life, with active data collection by the registry occurring at 4 and 12 months after delivery.
The purpose of this research is to compare two healthy diet styles during pregnancy. Sixty pregnant women between 8 and 16 weeks will participate. Participates will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to either receive routine healthy diet advice and counseling, or to receive advice and counseling for the Mediterranean style diet. Our current routine healthy diet program follows the recommendations provided by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). It recommends the consumption of grains, fruits, vegetables, protein foods, and dairy foods during pregnancy. The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is a well-known healthy diet that consists of a large amount of plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans, and nuts with olive oil as the principal source of fat. Dairy, fish, and poultry are consumed in moderation and red meat only eaten occasionally. Throughout their pregnancy, participants will receive free food and be assessed to determine how will they are following to the diet plan they were randomized to.
The purpose of this pilot study is to understand the difference between early and late time-restricted eating on weight and body mass index (BMI), and evaluate the barriers encountered and the effect on quality of life.
The specific aims and objectives of this proposal are to: 1. Evaluate a food pantry's weekly food distribution impact on behavioral, social and health outcomes in families. 2. In a subset of families with a child aged 6-17 years, test a pilot intervention offering the following components, with a goal of improving family behavioral, social and health outcomes: 1. Weekly family food packages from the Revere Food Pantry 2. 6-Monthly group sessions that include information on healthy behaviors, chronic disease management and teaching families how to prepare simple recipes based on the food they receive that week from the food pantry.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of sleeve gastrectomy combined with pancreas after kidney (PAK) transplantation as a means of achieving normoglycemia, insulin independence, reduced insulin resistance, and kidney graft function preservation in the T2DM population. in the first year post pancreas after kidney transplant. Safety and efficacy data will be collected from the time of enrollment until participants reach 1 year post PAK transplant. Data will be compared to historical data from TGH's renal and pancreas transplant programs.
Despite the many associated health benefits, more than half of Veterans do not achieve enough regular physical activity. The investigators' prior work has demonstrated that gamification, a method commonly used for health promotion, can lead to sustained increases in physical activity if it is designed using insights from behavioral economics to enhance social incentives. In this study, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of behaviorally designed gamification that encourages Veterans to collaborate or compete on physical activity levels and examine clinical outcomes as well as costs, barriers and facilitators to implementation of the program within Veterans Affairs.
Resistance training is a common way of daily exercise which has a remarkable function in healthcare. It has been used in many diseases as a complementary method. Overweight and obesity are the sixth highest risk of death worldwide. In recent years, the data show that the rate of overweight obese among college students shows a significant increasing trend. The common characteristics of overweight and obese people are strong appetite which is difficult to be controled and sedentary. resistance training is a solid supplement to physical education and how to reduce appetite of overweight and obese college female students through resistance training is the key to increase their health by university sport course. The training plan divides the training intensity into three levels including 45-50% one repetition maximum(1RM), 60-65% 1RM, 45-50% 1RM, respectively plus control group. Therefore, this experimental research examines the effectiveness and the differences of three Intensities resistance training on energy intake and appetite regulation among overweight and obese college girl. Finally, to evaluate whether the resistance training can reduce the overweight and obese female college students' energy intake and appetite regulation
This is an observational, retrospective, cohort study using administrative insurance claims data. The aim of this non-interventional study (NIS) is to compare maternal, fetal and infant outcomes of women exposed to Wegovy during pregnancy to a reference population not exposed to Wegovy, so that participants and healthcare providers can make informed treatment decisions.
