NCT05665621
This intervention study aims to examine the efficacy of a school-based exercise programme to improve strength and balance in overweight and obese 7-11-year-olds in the United Kingdom. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is the school-based exercise programme effective in improving lower limb muscular strength and balance control? * How do increases in strength and balance skills impact physical function, the risk to musculoskeletal health, and physical activity? Participants will attend baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up testing that includes assessment of strength, balance, 3D gait, plantar pressure, physical function and physical activity. The intervention group will take part in physical activity sessions in their school for 1 hour twice a week for a total of 8 weeks. Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group that will take part in no-activity sessions and carry out their normal school and seasonal activities.
NCT02677792
The purpose of the current study is examine the feasibility and efficacy of providing a behavioral family intervention in 30 youth 10 to 17 years of age who are obese and attending a multidisciplinary pediatric obesity clinic and their parents. Participating families will complete assessments consisting of weight status, dietary intake, physical activity, health-related quality of life, psychological functioning, home-food environment, parenting skills, and self-efficacy at pre-treatment (Baseline), post-treatment (Month 3), and 2 month post-treatment follow-up (Month 5). Family attendance data will be collected during the behavioral family intervention and children and parents will complete a treatment satisfaction questionnaire at the post-treatment assessment. Health outcomes (e.g., A1C, glucose) routinely assessed through standard medical care in the multidisciplinary pediatric obesity clinic will be obtained from child medical charts.

NCT05475054
Despite the worldwide increase of both obesity and use of minimally invasive liver surgery(MILS), evidence regarding the safety and eventual benefits of MILS in obese patients is scarce. The aim of this study is therefore to compare the outcomes of non-obese and obese patients(BMI 18.5-29.9 and BMI≥30, respectively) undergoing MILS and OLS, and to assess trends in MILS use among obese patients. In this retrospective cohort study, patients operated at 20 hospitals in eight countries(2009-2019) will be included and the characteristics and outcomes of non-obese and obese patients will be compared. Thereafter, the outcomes of MILS and OLS were compared in both groups after propensity-score matching(PSM). Changes in the adoption of MILS during the study period will be investigated.
NCT05508997
In this study, the sixty mechanically ventilated class I obese patients were divided into two equal groups A and B. group A received RTP position + PEEP protocol, while group B underwent RTP position protocol only. The results showed that the group A protocol has positive effects on the improvement of respiratory mechanics by significant increase the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) in mmHg to fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2), (PaO2/FiO2 ratio), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and static compliance (Cstat) parameters. Moreover, a significant decrease in hemodynamics of BP\& MAP was measured. While the results of the group B protocol demonstrated a non-significant increase in the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, PaCO2, and Cstat. Besides, non-significant decreases in hemodynamics of blood pressure (BP) \& mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) were recorded.
NCT05405816
710 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the most common bariatric procedure in obesity. The overall relationship between sleeve gastrectomy and gastroesophageal reflux disease is still unclear. Only acid reflux can be detected in the esophagus with a standard 24-hour pH-meter. A 24-hour pH-meter is normal in 30-50% of patients with nonerosive reflux. Impedance-pH meter, on the other hand, is a newly developed technique and determines all kinds of reflux (gas, liquid, acid and non-acid), the level of reflux and the clearance time of the esophagus. This prospective series aims to examine the relationship between LSG operation and esophago-gastric physiology using intraluminal impedance testing before and after LSG operation.
NCT04822545
Hospitalized patients with obesity who are not already in CWM (comprehensive weight management), or not comfort care/hospice will be identified by the hospitalists then the study dietitian will consent for the patient for enrollment (and answer any question regarding diet/lifestyle) in the study. The intervention will be a CWM referral at discharge. The outcome will be what percentage of these patients go to the CWM clinic at 6 months. At 6 months, the investigators will also call each participant to get a qualitative idea of the process of inpatient referral and barriers to the CWM clinic visit. Weight loss, starting on anti-obesity medication, bariatric surgery will be assessed as a secondary outcome.
NCT02996864
College students are in a newly independent phase of life; many of whom encounter unhealthy dietary decision- making, barriers to physical activity, and poor sleep behaviors. Healthy Detours is a location-based smartphone application tailored in real-time to a student's schedule and locale, and aims to guide students toward healthier eating, exercise, and lifestyle choices as a way to prevent the onset of damaging and costly health outcomes. Through a randomized control trial, this Phase II project will test the effectiveness of an evidence-based smartphone application that will provide students with on-demand, location-specific information about healthy lifestyle choices.
NCT03215836
The objective of this pilot study is to determine whether obesity and metabolic syndrome are in fact synergistic in relation to airway nitric oxide (NO) biology. To do so, the investigators want to determine how obesity and the metabolic syndrome relate to metabolism in bronchial airway epithelial cells and the nasal epithelium.
NCT01814072
The overall objective of the proposed research is to use an innovative methodological framework, the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST), to design, for the first time, an optimized, scalable version of a technology-supported intensive lifestyle intervention (INLI) for obesity. MOST involves highly efficient randomized experimentation to assess the effects of individual treatment components, and thereby identify which components and component levels make important contributions to the overall program effect on weight loss. This information then guides assembly of an optimized treatment package that achieves target outcomes with least resource consumption and participant burden. Because the intervention strategies being tested minimize in-person coaching and leverage technology that participants already own, the new optimized intervention, to be called Opt-IN, will be more scalable than traditional INLIs. Opt-IN will thus enjoy greatly increased reach, and enable significant progress in the fight against obesity.
NCT03844646
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether intermittent use of continuous glucose monitor will facilitate weight loss in individuals who are overweight/obese with prediabetes.
NCT04132869
YES! We can PLAY: A Physical Activity and Nutrition After-School Program for Middle School Students, is a collaborative partnership between the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the Birmingham City Schools District to decrease health disparities in obesity and obesity-related diseases by increasing physical activity levels and healthy eating behavior among Birmingham youth. Through the after-school program in which children choose from a menu of sports programming, the proposed intervention will increase physical literacy of the students through education related to both physical activity and nutrition as well as social-emotional learning which will increase students' ability to integrate the information and activities of the program into their lives moving forward.
