Effects of Two Different Exercise Programs and Diet in Obese Subjects With NAFLD
The aim of the study is to estimate the effectiveness of two different exercise programs combined with the Mediterranean diet versus diet alone on inflammatory status in subjects aged 18-65 years with obesity (BMI>30) and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) (CAP >248 dB/m).
Comparison of Gastric By-Pass and Optimized Medical Treatment in Obese Diabetic Patients
The objectives are to compare the results of the Gastric By-Pass (GBP) to that of optimized medical therapy in patients with obesity and poorly controlled type 2 diabetes in terms of mortality, weight loss, glycemic control, quality of life, cost, cost-effectiveness and cost utility of these two strategies.
Optimal Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Anticoagulation Management Strategies in Obese Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Standard Heparin management, based on total body weight, is not well established for obese patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of using lean body mass (LBM) to determine pump flow rate and/or Heparin dosage in obese …
Transpulmonary Pressure - Guided Mechanical Ventilation in Morbidly Obese ARDS Patients: a Feasibility Study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a personalized intervention aiming to optimize the mechanical ventilator settings in morbidly obese patients suffering from moderate to severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The intervention consists of personalized measurements and calculations of the different pressures inside the thorax. The main …
Internet-Based Lifestyle Intervention (iLIVE) to Eradicate Obese Frailty in Prostate Cancer Survivors
This clinical trial tests the effectiveness of an online weight loss plus resistance training intervention (iLIVE) to decrease obesity and improve frailty in men with prostate cancer who received androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Androgen deprivation therapy increases the risk of frailty, weight gain and obesity in prostate cancer survivors. The …
Efficacy and Safety of Semaglutide Injection Vs WEGOVY® in Chinese Obese Patients
This is a 48-week randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled biosimilar comparison study comparing the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of the investigational drug and WEGOVY® in patients with obesity. Eligible participants will be screened and randomized to the experimental group and the active comparator group at a ratio of 1:1 , semaglutide injection …
EffectiVenEss of a Rehabilitation Treatment With Nordic Walking in obEse or oveRweight Patients
Nordic Walking (NW) is a biomechanically correct walking technique that originated in Finland in the 1930s as an off-season training method for cross-country skiers. In the NW, the use of special sticks is combined with "conventional" walking: this involves a greater caloric expenditure, with an energy consumption higher by 20-30% …
Effects Of Vitamin D On Bone, Muscle, And Adipose Tissue In Obese Subjects
Obesity has emerged as a risk factor in the onset of bone, muscle and adipose tissue impairments that are further aggravated by vitamin D deficiency. A link of an active bone-muscle-adipose axis is represented by Wnt pathway. This study will test the hypothesis that vitamin D improves bone, muscle, and …
HIIT in Sedentary Obese Adults: Effects on Metabolic Risk, Body Composition, and FABP4
It is aimed to investigate the responses of Fatty Acid Binding Protein 4 (FABP4), which has been discovered as a novel biomarker of obesity and metabolic diseases, to regular exercise training. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on cardiometabolic risk factors, …
Abdominal and Core Exercises on Respiratory Functions in Obese and Overweight Women (COREBREATH)
This study aims to examine the effects of an 8-week Pilates-based exercise program on breathing functions in overweight and obese women (BMI ≥ 25). The program includes exercises for abdominal endurance and core stabilization, performed three times a week. Participants will be divided into two groups: an exercise group and …
