The Relationship Between Obesity and Chronic Headache
The relationship between obesity and the development of chronic headache after traumatic brain injury will be investigated.
Multicenter Registry for Patients With Childhood.Onset Craniopharyngioma, Xanthogranuloma, Cysts of Rathke's Pouch, Meningioma, Pituitary Adenoma, Arachnoid Cysts
KRANIOPHARYNGEOM Registry 2019 will prospectively collect and descriptively analyse data on diagnostics, treatment, and follow-up of patients with craniopharyngioma. In continuation of preceding studies also patients with xanthogranuloma, meningioma, pituitary adenoma, prolactinoma and cystic intracranial malformations will be registered.
The 6-minute Pegboard and Ring Test in Overweight and Obese Individuals
The aim of our study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the 6-minute pegboard and ring test in overweight and obese individuals.
Peripheral Artery Tonometry in Children With Type 1 Diabetes and Obese Children
Background: The reactive hyperemia-peripheral artery tonometry (RH-PAT) is a newly developed method for noninvasive endothelial function assessment. Objective: The goal of this study is to determine whether a significant difference in RH-PAT score is present between adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in comparison with controls. We will also compare …
The UFO (Ultra Processed Foods in Obesity) Project
The childhood obesity prevalence has increased dramatically in the last decades, affecting more than 340 million children worldwide. This condition is the major risk factor for a set of metabolic abnormalities, also known as metabolic syndrome, a condition that reduce life expectancy by 5-20 years. Changes in the global food …
Adaptive Mechanisms In GRown up ObeSity Study (AMIGROS)
The investigator recently showed that the glycan-binding adipokine galectin-1 increased during overfeeding and that galectin-1 independently could predict type 2 diabetes. Further, the molecules that induce insulin release in the fasting state when blood glucose is normal remain elusive. It is possible that galectin-1 is involved in adaptive mechanisms in …
Early Childhood Obesity Programming by Intrauterine Growth Restriction
The molecular mechanisms underlying developmental programming of childhood obesity remain poorly understood. Here, the investigators address major questions about early childhood obesity programming by studying CD3+ T-cells from intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) newborns who have an increased risk for obesity and other metabolic disorders in adult life.
Bone Outcomes, Obesity, Sunlight, and Trauma in Children
Prospective case-control study of children (3-15 years) after low-energy trauma. We compare serum bone metabolic markers (25OHD, PTH, ALP, calcium, phosphate), BMI/percentile, and dietary calcium intake between fracture and non-fracture presentations. Blood is collected within 7 days (non-fasting; samples on ice for PTH). Primary aim: association of ALP and calcium …
Harnessing Macrophage Lysosomal Lipid Metabolism in Obesity (ATM)
The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of transcription factor EB (TFEB) in adipose (fat) tissue macrophages (ATM) in regulating adipose tissue and systemic metabolic function in obesity. The investigators will assess the differences in ATM lipid metabolism in people with metabolically abnormal obesity and lean individuals. …
Effects of Cross-sex Hormone Therapy on Eating Behavior, Metabolism, Energy Balance and Cardiovascular System
Current study aims to characterize five highly interconnected physiological systems in patients undergoing cross-sex hormone therapy - namely glucose and lipid metabolism, energy balance, eating behavior, functional brain networks involved in the regulation of eating behavior and the cardiovascular system - to gain novel insights into the effects of sex …
