NCT ID: NCT01592058 Completed - Weight Change Clinical Trials

Weight Change Among Users of Three Progestin-Only Methods of Contraception Over a 12-Month Time Period

BMI
Start date: June 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to learn whether women who use progestin-only methods of birth control such as the contraceptive implant (Implanon), the levonorgestral-releasing IUS (Mirena), or depot medroxyprogesterone acetate(DMPA) will experience weight change compared to women using the non-hormonal copper IUC (ParaGard). The investigators primary hypothesis is that users of DMPA will gain excess weight and increase their BMI above the copper-IUC users; secondarily, the investigators will compare users' data in the LNG-IUC and ENG implant groups to the copper-IUC group.

NCT ID: NCT01579773 Completed - Weight Change Clinical Trials

Comparison of Body Composition & Weight Change in Users of Progestin-only Contraception During the First Year of Use

DEXA
Start date: April 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to learn if women gain weight using progestin-only methods of contraception and if so, how much. The investigators will look at users of two progestin-only methods: the levonorgestrel-containing intrauterine contraceptive (LNG-IUC) and the etonorgestrel (ENG) subdermal implant, and compare these users' weight change to that of users of a non-hormonal method, the copper intrauterine device. The primary hypothesis is that ENG implant and LNG-IUC users' weight and body composition will increase more than the copper-IUD users. The investigators will collect body composition data using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and collect information about diet and activity using validated questionnaires.

NCT ID: NCT01351506 Completed - Body Weight Clinical Trials

Effect of Body Weight Change to Surgical ICU Outcomes

Start date: May 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Aims of study 1. Effect of daily weight change upto 7 days from ICU admission to outcome of treatment in 28 days 2. Determination cut point of maximum weight change to outcome treatment

NCT ID: NCT01259999 Completed - Anorexia Clinical Trials

Energy Dense Formula to People Living in Old Peoples Home

Start date: April 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Dietary intake in frail elderly is often lower than estimated needs due to the combined effects of the anorexia of ageing, frailty and the presence of acute and chronic disease. The objectives of the present study are to assess the effects of an oleic acid rich formula fortified with micronutrients on energy intake, vitamin- and mineral status, muscle strength and mobility. The investigators have recently performed a similar study in an acute ward setting without micronutrients.

NCT ID: NCT00717132 Completed - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

Cost-effectiveness of Family Based Pediatric Obesity Treatment

Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To determine the cost effectiveness of treating the child alone and parent alone to traditional family-based method of obesity treatment. It is hypothesized that a family-based approach will be more cost effective, and will support the savings and effectiveness of treating multiple family members together.

NCT ID: NCT00682058 Completed - Weight Loss Clinical Trials

Body Composition & REE Responses to Bariatric Surgery

Start date: October 2006
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to measure important components of weight change in patients who underwent bariatric surgery on measures of fat mass and its distribution and fat-free mass (FFM) (bone mineral density, skeletal muscle, and specific organs) at 60 months (T60) and 84 months (T84) post-surgery, and to compare compartment sizes with stable weight controls.

NCT ID: NCT00179348 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Yoga-Based Rehabilitation Program in Reducing Physical and Emotional Side Effects in Patients With Cancer

Start date: February 8, 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies yoga-based rehabilitation in reducing physical and emotional side effects of living with cancer or its treatment. Yoga-based rehabilitation may reduce side effects and improve the quality of life of patients with breast, lung, or colorectal cancer.
