Filter by:Pilot study to test the acceptability and feasibility of an intervention aimed to test the effectiveness, in preschool children, of an integrated physical activity intervention in the classroom based on intervallic training (MOVI-HIIT) on improving executive function, body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness.
The objective is to determine if how physical fitness, measured using a treadmill maximal oxidative capacity test, is associated with the capacity to metabolize a high-fat meal in pediatrics (ages 8-17 years). Ability to metabolize the meal will be assessed by profiling mitochondrial and extra-mitochondrial fatty acid metabolites. The investigators will test if fatty acid oxidation mediates the relationship between fitness and markers of metabolic health, such as insulin resistance.
Purpose: This study will test the efficacy of a family-focused lifestyle intervention for reducing type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk factors and increasing Quality of Life (QoL) among high-risk Latino families.
Specific Aim: Feasibility of a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) in Pregnancy and Infancy to Reduce Childhood Obesity Risk Factors in Early Life. The main outcomes are feasibility of the intervention components and data collection. Study will use maternal body mass index (BMI) and child weight-for-length outcomes to estimate sample size needed for a full-scale trial to test intervention efficacy. Primary analysis for full-scale trial power and sample size calculations will be conducted using child weight-for-length data at Child Age 12 Months Visit. Data collected will inform future interventions.
"Matkassen - effekten av tre månaders intensiv kostintervention hos barn med fetma/ Family Meals on Prescription.- a randomized controlled trial : The aim of the study was to explore a novel approach for the treatment of obesity in children and adolescents through an intensive dietary intervention, consisting of receiving a weekly bag of groceries and recipes for five family meals at a reduced price for three months. Data concerning dietary patterns and food habits, weight, BMI and blood markers for metabolic and cardiovascular disease was collected before the study began and again at the end of the study during the patients' one year follow up appointment at the clinics.
This is a prospective 11-17 -years follow-up of two existing pregnancy cohort (PREDO) and prevention (RADIEL) studies. The main objective is to investigate the associations between maternal overweight, obesity, hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, gestational diabetes, and maternal-fetal metabolome, child's birth outcomes, and overweight and obesity and cardio metabolic health outcomes in childhood and adolescence. During this follow-up study, the mothers and their 11-17-year-old children are invited for a study visit and their cardio metabolic health is studied by many different methods.
RYSE is a Family-based Approach for Healthy Lifestyles that is a program for families with children between the ages of 5-12 years old to help them make healthy lifestyle changes to reach a healthier weight. The research program does this with children and their families through guidance about healthy eating, physical activity, and behavior change. The program focuses on helping participating families set up healthy support systems at home, at school and in social settings.
This study aims to determine the relationships among loss of control eating, restriction, relative reinforcing value of high energy-dense food, and obesity risk. In order to achieve this aim, the investigators will follow children over the course of a year, obtaining behavioral and observational measurements, in addition to a two-week restricted access and two week non-restricted access period.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a 2-month time-restricted feeding (TRF) intervention in children and adolescents with obesity. The investigators will determine whether the potential beneficial effects of the intervention in this population are maintained over time. Furthermore, potential mechanisms mediating TRF effects will be explored, specifically focusing on the potential role of the gut microbiome and the circadian rhythm.
This pilot randomized controlled trial will test the effectiveness of Eatable Alphabet cards, a child friendly nutrition education tool, on child weight and related behaviors in a clinical sample of 2 to 10-year-old children with overweight/obesity, referred to a pediatric weight management program.
