Crocus Sativus Tepals Water Extract in Obesity and Prediabetes
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the acute effects of ingestion of a cold aqueous extract of Crocus sativus tepals on postprandial glycemia and other indicators of metabolic health in patients with obesity and/or prediabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the ingestion of …
Cardiovascular Effects of Angiotensin-(1-7) in Obesity Hypertension
Obesity is a global health concern that is associated with high blood pressure and an increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug angiotensin-(1-7) can improve cardiovascular health in people with obesity and high blood pressure.
Comorbid Obesity and Depression With an Anti-inflammatory Medication
Research suggests that only a subset of individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) may benefit from anti-inflammatory treatments: those who have C-reactive protein (CRP) ≥3 mg/L, a commonly used threshold for "low-grade" inflammation. The emerging link between metabolic and immune abnormalities in MDD suggests that individuals with comorbid obesity and …
Weight Loss Following an Episode of Pre-eclampsia Using a Dissociated or Hypocaloric Diet in Overweight or Obese Patients
In view of the known link between pre-eclampsia, overweight/obesity and chronic kidney disease, the aim is to offer for obese and overweight patients to reduce their BMI without reducing lean body mass. The POPADIPE project will make it possible to limit overweight or obesity by means of nutritional management chosen …
Effects of Brain Stimulation on Food Intake and Behavioral Weight Loss Treatment
This study will determine whether electrical stimulation of an area of the brain called the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which is important in determining the feeling of fullness after eating, affects how much food a person eats and weight loss over 4 weeks. It will also compare weight changes in people …
The Effect of SGLT2 Inhibition on Adipose Inflammation and Endothelial Function
Obesity is associated with increased cardiometabolic disease risk due, in part, to heightened chronic inflammation arising from adipose tissue. There are no current targeted therapies to prevent or reverse the chronic inflammation of obesity, and a better understanding of these inflammatory pathways in humans is key to future therapeutic interventions. …
Exogenous Ketones and Appetite
People with obesity have different appetitive responses to stimuli compared to people without obesity. For example, people with obesity have a blunted postprandial ghrelin ('hunger' hormone) response, lower glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and peptide-YY (PYY; associated with satiety) compared to people without obesity. Given the favorable effects of exogenous ketones …
Snus and Home Blood Pressure
Snus is a type of snuff that is administered sublabially, that has not been studied regarding the effects on home blood pressure and metabolism on a longer time frame. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of snus on home BP within weeks to months in …
Exercise, Brain Activity, and Weight Maintenance
This study aims to explore how HIIT influences brain function, neural and molecular pathways related to weight control, setting the stage for future obesity intervention research.
Diazoxide Suppression Test P&F Study
The goal of this study is to learn about how the hormone insulin controls blood sugar. The main question it aims to answer is about how much insulin the body actually needs to maintain a normal blood sugar level. People with obesity and high insulin levels will receive eight doses …
