Obesity and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2) are two of the most common chronic diseases of the Western society. Obesity is one critical factor in DMT2 development, with weight loss having profound beneficial effects on DMT2 and improving the metabolic pathophysiology leading to hyperglycemia. Observational studies reported that surgical intervention …
People who experience repeated bouts of circadian misalignment, such as shift workers, are at higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and Type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to daytime workers. However, the mechanism(s) by which shift work and associated circadian misalignment increase CVD and T2D risk are unknown. This project will …
This study aims to test the following hypotheses in a randomized controlled trial of post-partum women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) that will be followed up for up to 4 years: Post-partum pregnancy is ideal for behavioural modification and adopting a healthy lifestyle. Using the continous glucose …
This research is being done to learn if a new type of haploidentical transplantation using TCR alpha beta and CD19 depleted stem cell graft from the donor is safe and effective to treat the patient's underlying condition. This study will use stem cells obtained via peripheral blood or bone marrow …
This study aims to assess whether an integrated continuum of care from the preconception period, across maternity until the first 18 months of life, can promote maternal metabolic and mental health, as well as offspring health, among overweight and obese women.
The primary aim of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effects of a 4-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and time-restricted eating (TRE) intervention on cardiometabolic biomarkers in adolescents and young adults.
Gastric myotomy has been performed for several years as a means of addressing chronic stenosis after sleeve gastrectomy and treating gastroparesis. The Pylorus Sparing Antral Myotomy (PSAM) technique has the opposite effect by leaving the pylorus intact and extending the myotomy proximally to the distal gastric body. PSAM was initially …
High body fat at midlife, as evidenced by overweight or obese body mass index (BMI), is increasingly understood as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. However, the underlying processes and mechanisms that may underlie this risk remains unknown. With this project, the Investigator proposes to create a new cohort of …
The study project aims at examining molecular markers in synovial fluid, bone and articular cartilage from osteoarthritic thumb basal joints. The degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in thumb basal joints will be evaluated in association to the metabolic profile of the patient, but we also aim to compare the …
The study aims to investigate whether tailoring limb lengths based on the 1/3rd and 2/3rd concept improves clinical outcomes in Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) surgery compared to conventional limb lengths. In this study, two groups were described, first group involves patients who will undergo Lap RYGB with conventional limb …
