NCT07216820
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a phrenic-sparing nerve block can lower early breathing problems after shoulder surgery in adults with obesity, and whether a simple breathing-strength test (maximum inspiratory pressure, MIP) helps identify who is at higher risk. The main questions are: Does the phrenic-sparing approach reduce breathlessness or oxygen need in the recovery room (30-60 minutes after arrival)? Do patients have similar pain control and opioid use compared with the standard interscalene block (ISB)? Are there any breathing-related complications or unplanned admissions within 24 hours? Researchers will compare the phrenic-sparing block (infraclavicular + distal suprascapular) to the standard ISB, both commonly used at UNC. Participants will: Have a quick MIP breath test before surgery (and, if age ≥65, a brief thigh muscle ultrasound). Be randomly assigned to receive either the standard ISB or the phrenic-sparing block (both ultrasound-guided and part of routine care). Receive usual anesthesia/surgery; have a brief recovery check at 30-60 minutes (breathlessness score, oxygen use, oxygen level). Have pain medicines recorded from anesthesia start to PACU discharge; the team may review the chart up to 24 hours and make a short follow-up call (24-48 hours).

NCT06855784
This study is aimed at women currently going through menopause, either as part of the natural process (physiological menopause), or following hormonal treatment for breast cancer. There are several ways of slowing the weight gain frequently encountered in this situation, reducing the intensity of menopause-related symptoms and improving quality of life in this context. In this trial, the investigators examine the efficacy and possible adverse effects of intermittent fasting compared with a control intervention. Participation lasts 14 weeks, with an optional 12-month follow-up. Study participants are randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. In the intervention group, study participants fast for 16 hours per day and eat over a period of 8 hours (intermittent fasting often called time-restricted eating \[TRE\] 16h/8h). In the control group, the usual eating pattern is continued for 12 weeks. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of TRE in terms of weight and fat loss, improvement in metabolic profile, menopausal symptoms and bone health. In addition, the study team closely monitors any adverse effects.

NCT07368855
Key question: Is the use of GLP-1 weight loss medicines - semaglutide and tirzepatide - associated with improvements in mental health and health-related quality of life? Key finding: Across six- months of GLP-1 treatment, participants reported statistically significant improvements in mental health, eating disorder symptoms, and health-related quality of life domains such as pain interference and sleep quality. Message for readers: Although GLP-1 medicines are prescribed primarily for weight loss and metabolic health benefits, growing evidence suggests that these medicines may also facilitate meaningful improvements in mental health and quality of life.

NCT07136246
This study aims to explore the diagnosis, impact, and prognostic factors of COPD complicated with sarcopenic obesity using multi-segment bioelectrical impedance phase angle technology. It seeks to clarify the diagnostic value and efficacy of body composition analysis in specific populations, analyze the relationship between phase angle and COPD severity as well as quality of life, investigate its predictive role for adverse outcomes, and reveal the effects of inflammation and metabolic disorders in sarcopenic obesity. The goal is to provide a basis for early screening and precise intervention to improve patient prognosis.
NCT03221543
This study evaluates if measuring resting metabolic rate (the number of calories the body burns at rest) before surgery can help predict successful weight loss after surgery.
NCT00488072
Primary objective: This is a preliminary study to determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve appetite in advanced cancer patients with anorexia and weight loss. An improvement of appetite is defined as a decrease of 2 in the appetite score from baseline on the Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale (ESAS) at day 15 (+/-3 days). Secondary objective-A: To determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve insomnia ( as measured by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) on day 15 ( +/- 3 days), and day 29 ( +/- 3 days) Secondary objective - B: To determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve other common symptoms such as pain, nausea and fatigue( as measured by ESAS), depression and anxiety ( as measured by Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale), and quality of life ( as measured by Functional Assessment of Anorexia/Cachexia Therapy ) in advanced cancer patients with anorexia/cachexia, on days 15 (+/-3 days), and 29 (+/-3 days) Other Objectives: To provide exploratory data on the effects of Mirtazapine on weight gain, and preservation/gain lean muscle mass ( anthropometric measurements and Bioelectric Impedance), on days 15 (+/-3 days), and 29 (+/-3 days). To provide exploratory data on the effects of a Mirtazapine dose increase to 30 mg on decreased side effects of drug and increased appetite on day 29 (+/-3 days).

NCT06114498
Study Aim is creation of the Hospital Register of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) for a comprehensive assessment of the influence of gender characteristics, clinical and anamnestic factors, body composition, topical characteristics of congestion, instrumental data and markers of cellular inflammation and stress on immediate and long-term outcomes in patients with acute decompensated heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. During the study it is planned to assess gender, clinical and anamnestic indicators preceding hospitalization of patients in the hospital; characterize the features of comorbid status in the studied group of patient; study the features of drug therapy at the prehospital stage and during hospitalization in the study group of patient; assess adverse hospital outcomes and outcomes 6 months after hospital discharge and identify factors associated with them; assess body composition in patients with acute decompensated heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in obese patients upon admission to the hospital; characterize the severity and topical characteristics of congestion and compare with the phenotypes of acute decompensation of heart failure; asess adverse in-hospital outcomes and outcomes 6 months after hospital discharge and identify factors associated with them; conduct a clinical and instrumental examination of patients diagnosed with compensated and decompensated HFpEF, verified by echocardiography at rest, as well as in patients with HFpEF verified after an additional diastolic stress test with assessment of intracardiac hemodynamic; analyze the serum concentrations of biochemical markers associated with cellular stress in these groups of patients, as well as in the control group of apparently healthy people; conduct an analysis of associations of biomarker levels with clinical characteristics of patients, the presence of comorbid diseases, including obesity, as well as with data from instrumental examination methods; assess the diagnostic capabilities of HFpEF, defined by various criteria, based on the concentration of the new biomarkers The results obtained will allow us to evaluate the characteristics of the course and outcomes of the disease in Moscow patients, depending on the phenotype of acute decompensation of HFpEF, hospitalized in the hospital during the study period. It is expected to identify phenotypes of acute decompensation of HFpEF that affect the duration of hospitalization and the development of adverse outcomes in the hospital and long-term period of the disease.
NCT07336316
This is an observational study aiming to characterize the pathophysiological features and clinical significance of cardiometabolic early-stage heart failure using advanced multimodal cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. The study will focus on patients with cardiometabolic risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity who are in the pre-heart failure (pre-HF) stage or have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The study seeks to establish a full-chain imaging framework-from precise phenotypic classification and sensitive noninvasive diagnosis to individualized cardiovascular risk stratification. Participants will undergo multimodal CMR scans and comprehensive clinical evaluations and be followed up for primary outcome.
NCT07225816
The purpose of this study is to investigate how the duration of fasting and temporary stopping of Glucagon-Like-Peptide 1 (GLP-1) medications affect the amount of food left in the stomach in people using liraglutide (injected), semaglutide (taken by mouth) or semaglutide (injected). The length of participants participation in the study will depend on the type of GLP-1 RA treatment participants are already using.
NCT04259632
Purpose: Obesity is reaching epidemic proportions, affecting 36% of the adult population in the United States. There is intense interest in dietary management to treat obesity and its associated complications. The first line of obesity treatment is caloric restriction (CR), although recidivism is common. For moderate CR, attrition rates of 20% are often reported, therefore weight loss options beyond CR are urgently needed.
