Comparision of Aerobic Exercise to Aerobic Plus Yoga Exercise for Weight Loss in Adults With Overweight or Obesity.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding yoga exercise to a behavioral weight loss intervention improves weight loss in adults with overweight or obesity. It will also provide information about whether this approach to weight loss has additional benefits on other health and fitness measurements. The …
Parks & Pediatrics Fit Together
The proposed project will test an implementation strategy (the "TrailGuide") for delivering an existing model of pediatric obesity treatment ("Fit Together") that has demonstrated ability to meet published recommendations for improving health outcomes of children with obesity.
Tesamorelin as an Adjunct to Exercise for Improving Physical Function in HIV
People with HIV experience earlier impairments in physical function compared to people in the general population. They also exhibit an earlier presentation and more rapid development of frailty, a multisystemic syndrome of aging characterized by reduced activity, fatigue, slowness, weakness, and weight loss. While exercise can improve physical function in …
Long-term, Substantial Weight Loss and Insulin Regulation of Lipolysis
It is not known how much improvement in insulin regulated lipolysis (the breakdown of triglycerides) occurs following substantial, sustained weight loss. Researchers will test the effects of inflammation and lipolysis regulation in people before and after bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) to answer these questions.
Bariatric Surgery and Modulation of Perceived Satiety
Bariatric surgery is the ideal therapeutic strategy for patients with severe obesity when lifestyle interventions have failed. Unfortunately, weight recovery after surgery affects one third of patients and is due to several factors, such as recovery of incorrect eating behaviour, reduction of physical activity or hormonal factors. Dilation of gastro-jejunal …
Gastric Recalibration After Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is a technique used for bariatric surgery, with results comparable to conventional surgery, in order to treat morbid obesity. It has also less risks of complications, and it is not an irreversible technique. It can be repeated overtime, regarding the evolution of the gastroplasty. There is …
Dairy Lipids and Cardiometabolic Risk
It is a randomized parallel arm intervention study in adults with severe obesity. The objective is to demonstrate that within a dietary handling for weight loss, the daily ingestion during 3 months of whole dairy products enriched with milk polar lipids or whole dairy products decreases to a greater extent …
Different Limb Lengths in Gastric Bypass Surgery (SLIM) - Part 3: Metabolism and Inflammation
Investigation of underlying metabolic mechanisms and impact on the two surgical procedures on inflammatory factors.
Effect of Limb Length Ratio on Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Outcomes (CLIMB II Study)
The investigators propose a randomized controlled trial comparing BP and roux limb lengths measuring 30 and 15% respectively of patient's total small bowel length versus current standard practice using fixed lengths. The findings would provide further insight into feasibility of standardizing RYGB limb lengths and optimizing resultant weight loss and …
LOW IMPACT LAPAROSCOPY IN BARIATRIC SURGERY
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if low pressure pneumoperitoneum and small incisions (low impact laparoscopy, LIL) works to reduce pain and improve pulmonary function in patients underwent to bariatric surgery. It will also learn about the safety and patients' satisfaction of the procedure. The main questions …
