Active clinical trials for "Obesity"

The purpose is to determine in a case-control study if an association exist between bone marrow adiposity and fragility fractures in post-menopausal women.

The objective of this study is to describe the change in the percentage of fat in the lumbar spine.

This study evaluated the periodontal condition of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) patients and a healthy non-pregnant control group. For the GDM group all medical data were recorded, including obesity/insulin resistance indicators.

Prospective study including Mexican patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and class 1 obesity, undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass. The objective was to determine short, mid-and long-term outcomes (weight loss, metabolic, morbidity and diabetes remission). A subanalysis was included, based on preoperative usage of one (Group A) or more antidiabetics ± insulin (Group B).

Bariatric patients represent a peculiar and frail subset of subjects, constantly increasing. During the novel coronavirus disease outbreak, for the lockdown of any non-urgent and non-oncological activity, the access to healthcare services was severely limited, according to the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders.

Several studies report changes in food preferences in favor of low energy density foods after bariatric surgery and changes in scores of liking and desire to eat, as well as changes in hedonic evaluation certain foods. However, only one study was held in a more realistic condition of consumption by using real food, looking at some aspects of food preferences and giving contradictory results. We hypothesise that food preferences are different between obese people with and without a bariatric surgery. The main objective of this study is to compare the differences in food quality (proportion of total energy intake from foods with high energy density versus foods with low energy density), evaluated during a standardized and validated buffet between adult women with severe complicated or morbid obesity and women who have undergone bariatric surgery in the last 12 months.

This mixed methods study will involve obtaining user feedback on the first 4 weeks of the Healthy Habits for Cancer (HCC) Program. Short pre and post surveys and in-depth qualitative interviews will be conducted exploring their views on the app (features they liked and didn't like), the extent to which they believe the app would have to be further adapted, how they would feel about such an app being embedded in their cancer care and when in their care pathway they would like to be offered it.

The purpose of this study is to determine the validity of the Human Activity Profile and Godin self-report questionnaires of physical activity in persons seeking metabolic surgery.

The goal of this observational study is to investigate differences in attained BMI and the proportion of overweight/obesity at school entrance in children who attended kindergartens actively delivering a community-based health promotion and obesity prevention intervention compared to children who attended usual care kindergartens. Further questions it aims to answer are: Explore the prevalence of attainted overweight/obesity in children at six years of age, who attended kindergartens delivering intervention compared with usual care kindergartens. Explore the development of obesity, overweight and normal weight in children from three-, four- to six years of age, who attended kindergartens delivering intervention.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about variability of gene SCD and MT-ATP6 in describe participant population and health conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: • whether there is variation in genes between obese and normal weight individuals Participants will get body weight and high was assessed using the medical scale and stadiometer, then, basis on obtained results, the Body Mass Index (BMI) will be calculated. Next, participants get determine the body composition and body composition analysis by bioelectrical impedance method to determined: Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT in cm2 and %), Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue (SAT in cm2 and %), and the VAT/SAT ratio was also determined. Then order to examine the sequence of the genes, swab will take from the oral cavity (cheeks and palate) using sterile swab. The research was carried out at the Department of Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition (Medical University of Bialystok).
