Eating a healthy diet is an important way to help manage weight and improve overall health. Broccoli microgreens (BMG) are young broccoli plants packed with nutrients, and research suggests they …
Mechanistic Study of Inspiratory Training in Childhood Asthma (MICA)
This is single-center cross-sectional mechanistic study in lean and obese children with moderate-severe asthma, followed by a randomized, SHAM-controlled trial of Inspiratory Training (IT). The primary outcome is to describe the contributions of inspiratory muscle dysfunction (IMD) and Small Airway Dysfunction (SAD) to obesity-related versus non-obesity-related asthma. The study will …
Dinner Time for Obesity and Prediabetes

Specifically, late eating is associated with greater weight gain and metabolic syndrome. However, the mechanism by which late eating harms metabolism is not fully understood …
Sympathetic Mechanisms in Obesity-Crossover Design
We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will …
LIROH - Liraglutide for Obesity in HIV

Missing from these interventions, however, are methods to increase accessibility and dissemination to multiple family caregivers. …
Acupuncture for Prediabetes With Combined Obesity
The clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in reducing weight and waist circumference while modulating glucose and lipid metabolism in Prediabetes with Combined Obesity.
Total-body Glucose Utilization in Obesity
There are three goals for this study. One is to investigate how different emotions and exposure to cold affect blood flow in the body. The second aim is to study how insulin affects blood flow and tissue glucose uptake, and to study whether this effect is altered in obesity. Last, …
Feasibility and Colorectal Benefits of Pulses Supplementation
Beans are a forgotten staple food that shows promise in improving health. The goal of this study is to look at how bean supplementation affects metabolic and bowel health. In the long-term, the investigators believe this research will lead to a better understanding of the impact of beans on bowel …
