All recruiting trials (7)
-
Frontal EEG Changes During Anesthesia in People With Obesity vs. Normal Weight
This study tests whether frontal brain activity patterns during anesthesia differ between adults with obesity and those of normal weight.
-
Resistance training to protect muscle during tirzepatide treatment
This study tests whether adding resistance training helps preserve thigh muscle mass in adults with obesity who are taking tirzepatide.
-
Inositol and Metformin with Mediterranean or Low-Carb Diets in Women with PCOS
This trial tests whether adding inositol, metformin, or folic acid to either a Mediterranean or a low-carbohydrate diet helps women with PCOS and insulin resistance lose weight and improve metabolic markers.
-
Fasting for 84 Hours: How It Affects Fat Burning and Muscle Basics in Young Adults
This study tests whether 84 hours of fasting changes peak fat oxidation, how efficiently mitochondria couple their energy, and the extracellular matrix in four groups of young people who are normal weight or obese.
-
Therapeutic patient education for adults with obesity and metabolic disorders
Aimed at adults with obesity, this study tests whether a co-developed therapeutic patient education program is acceptable and feasible to help with daily self-management.
-
Replacing refined-carb foods with avocado to test inflammation markers
This study tests whether swapping foods high in refined carbs with avocado (while keeping calories the same) lowers inflammation and improves insulin sensitivity in adults with elevated hs-CRP and central obesity.
-
Circadian Gene Changes in People with Glucocorticoid Disorders
This study tests whether circadian gene expression in blood cells differs between people with glucocorticoid disorders and healthy controls.
