Assessment of body weight change among prisoners in Martinique between admission in jail and 3 months later expressed as a percentage of admission weight. Intensity of physical activities, nutrition intakes and psychological state are also studied to describe associated factors to body weight change.

This study will take advantage of the open source framework of ResearchKit developed by Apple to bring research directly to participants. Using the ResearchKit platform as well as a stand alone app available for Android and HTML, it makes it easier to enroll large numbers of participants and carry out real-world health research to answer questions important to a broad population.

The investigators will study the influence of initial fat cell size/number and adipose function (in particular lipolysis) on weight development over very long time periods (years). By comparing investigations of fat biopsies or blood samples obtained at baseline, the investigators will determine the association between adipose morphology/function and changes in weight or development of metabolic complications (e.g. metabolic syndrome, glucose intolerance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension).

In this is an observational study, obese patients that administed and followed in endocrinology clinic of Marmara University Medical school hospital will follow for clinical and laboratory parameters prospectively for 5 years

Globally, overweight and obesity have become a major health concern and are present at all ages in both developed and developing countries. Sedentary lifestyle habits lead to reduced physical activity, which reduces energy expenditure, and this, combined with excessive energy intake, increases the risk of obesity. Lack of exercise combined with a sedentary lifestyle can exacerbate obesity and chronic disease. Among all obese people, the number of obese college students shows a growing trend. Obesity among college students not only leads to impaired physical health, but may also lead to discrimination, low self-confidence and self-efficacy, and even depression. Although traditional exercise methods can help college students with weight management, many college students do not enjoy these traditional physical activities. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new form of exercise that is different from traditional exercise to get college students moving. Thus, obtaining the recommended level of physical activity. With the progress of information technology and the popularity of electronic devices, the frequency of college students using computers and mobile phones has increased. Taking advantage of college students' interest in screen games, it is a new way to control sedentary behaviours and obesity by converting static screen usage time into dynamic screen usage time. Active video games (AVGs) are a new type of video games, which require players to complete the game by interacting with the images on the screen through upper limb, lower limb, and whole-body movements. Studies have shown that playing active video games produces more energy expenditure and physical activity than sedentary video games (static games). The variety of research on AVGs is promising, but the population of participants in the studies has been mostly children and adolescents. The college student population, with a high prevalence of overweight and obesity, has a high prevalence of screen time. It is especially important to intervene with overweight and obese college students using AVG to shift their interest from screens to exercise, thereby increasing physical activity intensity. Therefore, this paper will systematically investigate the effects of AVGs on physical activity, mental health, and body composition of overweight and obese college students in China.

The primary aim of this study is to examine the effect of applying a minimal contact technology-based intervention (TECH) at 1-year post-bariatric surgery on weight change compared to Standard Care. Forty participants at 1-year post bariatric surgery will be randomized to TECH or Standard Care for a period of 6 months (12 to 18 months post-surgery). Analyses will be conducted to compare these interventions for differences in body weight, body composition, fitness, physical activity, engagement, psychosocial measures, and intervention cost and cost-effectiveness of each approach. TECH will consist of a wearable monitor that provides feedback on energy expenditure and physical activity, electronic tracking of dietary intake, and integration of an electronic scale to provide comprehensive feedback to the participant on all components of weight management. TECH participants will receive a monthly telephone call from the intervention staff to provide guidance on their weight management efforts.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the personality attributes and values of people living with obesity that are part of the Latino community, and how these personality attributes and values can help to predict success during a weight loss program. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the personality attributes and values of people living with obesity that sign up to the LCSS-Latino Crossover Semaglutide Study trial? Can behavioral artificial intelligence (a computer formula) predict which patients will complete the LCSS-Latino Crossover Semaglutide Study trial? How do behavioral artificial Intelligence predictions (a computer formula) compare to clinician predictions of patient success? Can behavioral artificial intelligence (a computer formula) predict patient weight loss, calorie consumption and physical activity levels during the LCSS-Latino Crossover Semaglutide Study trial? Participants will be recorded in English and Spanish while responding to a question regarding participation in a weight loss study.

The overall aim of this project is to compare protein supplementation on performance, recovery, and body composition changes in adolescent soccer players between the whey protein and the control group in response to the 10-12-week intervention.
