Executive Function in Obese
This study was planned to examine the effect of executive function problems on physical performance and general well-being in obese individuals.
Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Intravenous Paracetamol in Morbidly Obese and Non- Obese Patients.
Obese patients may need higher doses of acetaminophen (APAP) for adequate analgesia, due to increased total clearance and distribution volume. APAP-induced hepatotoxicity is mainly caused through CYP2E1 pathway. Its activity is induced by obesity, potentially endangering the safety profile of APAP. Metabolic-dysfunction associated liver disease (MASLD) is an important associated …
Metacognitive Beliefs in Obese Patients
The study aims to investigate the presence of metacognitive beliefs, emotional regulation, and emotional eating in obese patients and their possible relationships.
Adrenergic Cholinergic Enteric Measures/Mapping
Patients seen who had autonomic and enteric profiling (Adrenergic, Cholinergic, Enteric Measures/Mapping=ACEM_ from 2012-2019 at the University of Louisville.
Inter-relationships Among Glucose, Brain, Gut Microbiota and MicroRNAs (IRONmiRNA).
The brain is a recognized target of iron deposition. This process is enhanced by the presence of obesity and hyperglycemia and impacts cognitive functions. There is evidence suggesting that the gut microbiota composition modulates this process. It has been proposed that microRNAs are mediators in the dialogue between the composition …
Bariatric Endoscopy for Treatment of Obesity
A single-center, randomized controlled study will be conducted in order to compare three Endoscopic Gastroplasty (EG) techniques with a control group of obese patients (BMI 30-44.99 kg/m2) at Gastroenterology and Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Unit, Mater Olbia Hospital, Qatar Foundation Endowment & Gemelli Foundation, Italy in period June 2020 - June 2023, …
Evaluation of Sagittal Abdominal Diameter as a Predictor of the Skin to Epidural Space Distance in Obese Patients
The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of the sagittal abdominal diameter (SAD) as a potential predictor of the skin to epidural space distance (SESD) and to compare its accuracy versus that of the BMI as a previously validated predictor
Abnormal Eating and Taste Perception in Subjects With Obesity
The identification of safe and effective strategies for weight loss and long-term maintenance is critical to reduce the alarming prevalence of obesity worldwide and mitigate obesity-associated health risks. Specifically, Binge Eating (BE) and Food Addiction (FA) behaviors are well known causes of failed weight loss and weight regain. The definitions …
Brown Adipose Tissue Activity in Response to Semaglutide Administered to Obese Subjects.
Glucagon like peptide (GLP-1) agonists, such as liraglutide, exenatide, and semaglutide, have been increasingly used as a medication to address the current twin epidemics of diabetes and obesity. Their activities include increasing insulin production by pancreatic beta cells, improving insulin sensitivity in muscles and weight loss. The mechanisms underpinning the …
Involvement of the Gut Microbiota-brain Cross-talk in the Loss of Eating Control
Overweight and obesity are increasingly prevalent worldwide. These bodyweight disorders are closely related to deficiencies in the control of food intake. A potential yet unexplored mechanism to explain the loss of eating control is the interaction between the gut microbiota and the brain. The mechanisms underlying the communication between the …
