Cognitive Strategies for Weight Loss
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare weight change and other related outcomes associated with three different behavioral weight loss interventions (STANDARD Behavioral, PREVENT, and PROMOTE) in adults with obesity. The main questions it aims to answer are: Which of the three Internet-delivered weight loss programs results in …
Stepped Care for Weight Loss Maintenance
This study is a 3-group, parallel design, randomized controlled trial (RCT) in approximately 258 adults with obesity that will investigate whether a 16-week behavioral weight loss treatment and a 52-week stepped-care digital health intervention can improve the maintenance of a ≥ 5% weight loss. 16-week run-in (Phase 1). To qualify …
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 …
Food Cravings Strategies During Dietary Weight Loss
The purpose is to optimize the EMPOWER program by integrating strategies to reduce food cravings, a critical yet often overlooked factor for long-term success in weight management. The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of craving coping strategies on weight loss outcomes by conducting a randomized controlled …
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 …
