A Study to Investigate Why Overweight People Regain Weight After Losing Weight in a Behavioral Weight Loss Program
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the physiological basis for the differences in weight regain among adults (25-59 years old) with obesity following participation in a behavioral weight loss program. Eligible participants will undergo a baseline evaluation after which they will enter an up to 20 week …
Predictors of Behavioral Obesity Treatment Outcomes
Socioceconomically disadvantaged individuals typically have poor outcomes in behavioral weight loss interventions, but the reasons for this are unknown. This project will characterize the mechanisms through which adverse daily experiences and present bias -- a cognitive adaptation to harsh and unpredictable environments -- account for disparities in weight loss outcomes.
Circadian Misalignment and Energy Balance
Preliminary findings from the investigators' lab suggest that circadian misalignment, occurring when meals and sleep are mistimed from one another, alters resting state neuronal processing in areas relevant to food reward and interoception; supporting a role of sleep and meal misalignment, on energy balance regulation. No study has been done …
Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training in Adults With Obesity
The purpose of this study is to determine whether inspiratory muscle strength training reduces blood pressure in adults with obesity.
Project SHINE (Sleep Health INitiative for Equity): Culturally Informing a Sleep Extension Intervention for African American Adults
The proposed research aims to reduce obesity-related health disparities by promoting healthy lifestyle behaviors among African Americans (AAs), given the high disease burdens associated with low physical activity, insufficient sleep, and obesity. There will be two phases to the proposed research. Phase 1 (Aim 1) will encompass formative research and …
The ESG Integrity Study: Effect of Proton Pump Inhibitors on the Structural Integrity of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
The study is a single center randomized, open-label, phase IV clinical trial. Obese patients who have indication to Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) for clinical reasons are included and ESG is performed as per clinical practice. After randomization, the patients are divided in two arms: Arm A: patients will stop proton …
Effect of Agonist GLP1 on Adipose Tissue in Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery
Normalizing weight gain and preventing the redistribution of body fat is a major health issue, and could help prevent the onset of various symptoms of metabolic syndrome. Above all, it is important to understand the mechanisms by which these different treatments affect adipose tissue. To this end, the investigators will …
Effect of Acupoint Thread Embedding on Obesity
The investigators describe a protocol for a randomized controlled trial to find out the effect and safety of acupoint thread embedding on losing weight in obese patients.
Laparoscopic Ileal Interposition and Weight Regain
The investigators will study the Ileal interposition to the treatment of weight regain after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, assessing weight loss, body composition, quality of life, metabolic biomarkers, inflammatory biomarkers, and incretin hormones
First in Human Study in Subjects With Obesity, But Otherwise Healthy
This is a First in Human study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DA-1726 following single and multiple doses in participants with obesity, but otherwise healthy subjects.
