Weight Loss Through Mayo Clinic Diet
The purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy of the Mayo Clinic Diet in clinically significant weight loss (>5%) versus usual care. We also wish to evaluate the feasibility, barriers to completion, and sustainability of this intervention at the 24, and 52-week marks. Lastly, we aim to study the …
Control Systems Engineering for Weight Loss Maintenance
This project capitalizes on principles of control systems engineering to build a dynamical model that predicts weight change during weight loss maintenance using behavioral, psychosocial, and environmental indicators evaluated in a system identification experiment. A 6-month behavioral obesity treatment will be administered to produce weight loss. Participants losing at least …
Time-restricted Eating for Postpartum Weight Loss
This study is being done to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a time-restricted eating intervention among postpartum women with overweight/obesity.
Thread Embedding Acupuncture Therapy for Weight Loss
Obesity is the most prevalent chronic disease worldwide, affecting approximately 800 million adults. Excess adiposity and its numerous complications, including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, impose a considerable economic burden and constitute major contributors to global morbidity and mortality. Treatments that result in substantial weight reductions may improve outcomes …
Behavioral Weight Loss and Sleep Health Intervention
This is a 6-month single-arm pilot and feasibility study designed to examine if a behavioral weight loss (BWL) intervention with an added sleep health program (BWL+SLEEP) can achieve clinically meaningful weight loss and improvements in a composite sleep health score. The investigators will also evaluate the feasibility of recruitment and …
Time-Restricted Eating for Weight-Loss Maintenance
Weight regain after intentional short-term weight loss is a common challenge. It often undermines the long-term benefits of obesity treatment. This study is a multi-center 2-arm randomized controlled trial across six regions in China, specifically targeting overweight or obese adults who have recently achieved a short-term weight reduction (≥5% of …
BEAM for Weight Loss - a Pilot Study
Bariatric endoscopic antral myotomy (BEAM) is a novel endoscopic technique which is performed using a gastroscope under general anesthesia. It involves cutting the muscle fibers at the gastric antrum, thereby weakening the antral pump, delaying gastric emptying and inducing satiety. Early reports had shown that this technique can produce significant …
Endo-Band: Endoscopic Band Ligation for Weight Loss
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to use endoscopic band ligation for weight loss. All ligatures will be performed in the gastric body starting at the distal body; 5 parallel rows, with the last one in the proximal body.The entire procedure can be completed in …
Preoperative Weight Loss for Open Abdominal Wall Reconstruction
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare preoperative intensive weight management to upfront surgery in obese patients undergoing complex abdominal wall reconstruction. The main question is will abdominal wall specific quality of life (using the HerQLes survey) for the group undergoing upfront surgery be non-inferior compared to …
Tirzepatide Weight Loss for MRD+ Early Breast Cancer
This trial aims to asses if tirzepatide-induced weight loss will lead to metabolic and hormonal changes in hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-negative (HER2-), node-positive (N+) high risk early breast cancer patients with obesity or overweight, inhibiting the growth and survival of micrometastatic disease and leading to clearance …
