Filter by:The goal of the study is to assess how tirzepatide impacts bodyweight and cardiovascular risk factors when used in conjunction with healthy nutrition and physical activity in adolescents with obesity and multiple weight related comorbidities. The study will last approximately 76 weeks and may include up to 23 visits.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-component lifestyle interventions during pregnancy on promoting appropriate gestational weight gain, preventing GDM, and improving pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes among overweight or obese pregnant women. The intervention strategies are developed based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health (via WeChat Public Account in smartphone), and will be conducted online and offline. This study will recruit and follow-up 200 overweight or obese singleton pregnant women (pre-pregnancy BMI≥24 kg/m2) during the first trimester of pregnancy from Weifang maternal and Child Health Center, Shandong Province, China. The 200 overweight or obese pregnant women will be randomly allocated at a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control group, stratified by the categorical variables of age, BMI and parity. Participants in the control group will be provided usual prenatal care. The lifestyle intervention will last for approximately 6 months (from 10-14 weeks to 32-36 weeks of gestation). Follow-up timepoints included 10-14 weeks of gestation,24-28 weeks of gestation,32-36 weeks of gestation. The interventions are composed of health education related to gestational weight gain and healthy lifestyles, diet modification, active physical activity, regular individual in-person and telephone sessions, diet behavior monitoring, physical activity monitoring, and weight monitoring with Huawei smart watch. The hypothesis is that lifestyle interventions based on the transtheoretical model and mobile health will result in more appropriate gestational weight gain and lower risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes compared with usual care.
This study will use a 2 x 2 factorial design to test impact of two intervention strategies (bottle size and bottle opacity) on infant weight gain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to Improve the quality of life in Hemodialysis patient. The main questions it aims to answer are: - [Improve the self-compliance of dialysis patients with weight management] - [alleviate the volume load of dialysis patients and reduce cardiovascular complications] Participants will be divided into two groups based on a weight management regimen： Control group: received routine outpatient management. Specific methods: The dialysis doctor registered the information of the patient's weight and blood pressure at the end of dialysis, and informed the patient of the purpose, role and importance of weight management. Intervention group: On the basis of routine outpatient management, patients or their family members were subjected to remote follow-up management based on wechat, and the follow-up time was 6 months. Specific methods: Same as the control group, the information of weight and blood pressure of the patients was registered at the end of dialysis, and the purpose, role and importance of weight management were informed to the patients. On this basis, a special wechat signal is set up to add patients or patients' family members as wechat friends and establish a wechat interaction platform with patients. In the interdialysis period, remind patients to weigh themselves through wechat (the time of each weighing is fixed, preferably consistent with the time of weighing in the hemodialysis center), control the weight gain during the interdialysis period not to exceed 4.5% of dry weight, and inform patients again about the purpose, role and importance of weight management.
People with HIV are at a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) due to the effects of the virus and its treatment. Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), a common HIV treatment, are associated with increased CVD risk and metabolic issues, such as weight gain and high blood pressure. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, however, have been working well in reducing CVD events and hospitalizations due to heart failure, irrespective of diabetes presence. They also help in reducing weight and blood pressure. Pitavastatin has shown to work in lowering CVD events in people with HIV, but its availability is limited. This benefit is thought to be common to all statins, but this has not yet been confirmed. This study will examine the impact of dapagliflozin vs. placebo on metabolic parameters in people with HIV with high metabolic risk who are on INSTI-based ART.
- Efficacy of olanzapine on weight gain in advanced stage gynecologic cancer - Proprotion of pateints in advanced stage gynecologic cancer who recieving paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy gain weight on olanzapine or placebo
In 20 - 30% of the patients, the low responders, sufficient weight loss is not achieved after bariatric surgery. Secondary and/or tertiary bariatric procedures can lead to successful weight loss and resolution of comorbid conditions though, morbidity and mortality rates of these procedures are high. Therefore, additional pharmacotherapy has been suggested. Semaglutide is one of the medications that might improve outcome in the post-bariatric population. Semaglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It causes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, promotes satiety and inhibits glucagon secretion. In obese (non-bariatric) patients, semaglutide has shown to improve glycemic control, decrease blood pressure, lower cardiovascular risk, and decrease body weight.
In this study, at least 400 women with high-risk of pregnancy hypertension will use a wearable device to monitor the blood pressure during gestational age from 12 weeks to 28weeks. The observed outcomes including maternal and offspring. Participants were from three hospital including Shanghai Xinhua Hospital, Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital and Peking University Third Hospital. Pregnant women were randomly divided into control group (routine delivery examination group) and intervention group (routine delivery examination group + use of wearable blood pressure monitoring device group), 200 cases each.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of #BabyLetsMove - a 24-week mobile Health and peer health coaching intervention paired with the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) - to increase physical activity and reduce sedentary behavior in pregnant, Black teens in the Mississippi Delta. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does #BabyLetsMove increase objective moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and decrease sedentary behavior from ≤16 to 26- and 36-gestational weeks compared to usual WIC care alone? - Does # BabyLetsMove decrease the rate of gestational weight gain and mean arterial pressure from ≤16 to 26- and 36-gestational weeks compared to usual WIC care alone? - Is #BabyLetsMove a feasible and acceptable intervention according to the RE-AIM framework? - Using the Practical, Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research, what are the barriers to organizational uptake and how can strategies be improved for future testing? Participants will be given three empirically supported behavior goals including (1) watching ≤2 hours of TV or other screen time per day, and (2) walking ≥10,000 steps per day - or - (3) engaging in ≥20 minutes of organized exercise per day. Researchers will compare the #BabyLetsMove groups to the WIC care only groups to see if the #BabyLetsMove intervention improves traditional WIC care for bettering health outcomes ( amongst pregnant, Black teens in the Mississippi Delta.
Pregnancy is a time of heightened risk for disordered eating behaviors, which have been linked to adverse health outcomes in gestation, delivery, and the postpartum. These adverse outcomes may at least in part be mediated by greater risk of deviation from recommended gestational weight gain trajectories, especially in those engaged in binge and loss of control eating. This study will explore the efficacy of a single-session, self-guided online acceptance-based intervention targeting food cravings as powerful and modifiable predictors of binge and LOC eating in pregnancy.
