Effect of the Thrive AI Health App on Lifestyle Behaviors and Quality of Life

The goals of this randomized trial is to learn: 1. If the Thrive AI Health app will help adults improve their everyday habits (diet, exercise, and sleep). 2. How often participants will use the Thrive AI Health app to which they will have free access The Thrive AI Health app uses artificial intelligence (AI) to give personalized advice. It is designed to help people eat better, exercise more, manage stress, and sleep well. Researchers will compare changes in diet, exercise and sleep in participants using the app to those participants not using the app. Participants will complete study questionnaires and an in-person visit at the beginning and end of the study.

Study of Olatorepatide in Adult Participants Living With Overweight or Obesity in the US

This study will test olatorepatide (study drug) to determine how safe and effective this drug is and how easily your body can accept this drug without causing side effects, as well as how the drug is processed in the body by participants with overweight or obesity. The study will test how safe and effective the study drug works compared to placebo in people who are overweight or obese but do not have diabetes. The study is looking at: * What side effects the study drug might cause * How much the study drug is in the blood at different times * How well the study drug works * If your body makes antibodies to the study drug, as this may cause the study drug to not work as well

The Efficacy and Safety of Metformin Intervention in Elderly Overweight or Obesity With Mild Cognitive Impairment

The prevalence of cognitive impairment in elderly obese patients is high, and the burden on families and society is heavy. Early intervention for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is of great value. Central nervous system insulin resistance plays a role in the pathogenesis of cognitive impairment, and functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) can evaluate cognitive impairment by observing central insulin resistance. Some large database studies of Type 2 Diabetes show that metformin is related to reducing the risk of dementia, but some studies have different conclusions, and there is few related study in elderly obese patients. The investigators speculate that metformin may improve cognitive dysfunction by improving central insulin resistance in elderly obese patients. A prospective, randomized controlled single center clinical cohort study will be conducted on 54 elderly obese patients with MCI. One group will receive metformin and lifestyle intervention, while the control group will receive simple lifestyle intervention. All subjects will be followed up for 26 weeks. Medical history collection, physical examination, and laboratory tests will be conducted before and after intervention, and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale will be used for evaluation. Nasal insulin inhalation combined with fMRI will be used to evaluate central insulin resistance status as an objective basis for cognitive function evaluation. The main purpose of the study is to provide more accurate clinical research evidence for the prevention and treatment of MCI in elderly obese patients, in order to reduce the risk of developing dementia and alleviate the burden on families and society.

Taxi ROADmAP (Realizing Optimization Around Diet And Physical Activity)

The researchers will conduct 'Taxi ROADmAP (Realizing Optimization Around Diet And Physical activity)', which also utilizes MOST, and the same 4 obesity intervention components as in SANOS, but targets the overweight/obesity crisis in another at-risk, low socioeconomic status (SES) population, taxi and for-hire vehicle (FHV) drivers (Lyft, Uber, etc.). ROADMAP also utilizes an effectiveness- implementation hybrid type 1 design. Hybrid trials, which blend effectiveness and implementation studies, can lead to more rapid translational uptake and more effective implementation. Taxi and FHV drivers are a growing, multilingual, hard-to-reach, predominantly immigrant and minority essential worker population. There are over 750,000 licensed taxi and FHV drivers in in the U.S. and over 185,000 in New York City (NYC). They have higher rates of overweight/obese range body mass index (BMI) than New Yorkers in general (77% vs 56%) and have high rates of elevated waist circumference, sedentary behavior, poor diets, and health care services underutilization. ROADmAP will test 4 evidence- and theory-based (Social Cognitive Theory \[SCT\]) behavior change intervention components. We will use MOST to identify which of the 4 components contribute most significantly and cost-effectively to weight loss among NYC drivers recruited at workplace health fairs (HFs) and virtually. Objectives are to apply MOST to design an optimized version of a scalable, lifestyle intervention for taxi/FHV drivers, and then to conduct a mixed methods multistakeholder process evaluation to facilitate widespread intervention implementation.

The main purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of orforglipron compared with insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight at increased cardiovascular risk. The study will last approximately 2 years may include up to 27 visits.

Hepatic Energy Fluxes in NASH and NAS Patients

Diseases along the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease spectrum, which are tightly coupled to the obesity epidemic, are soon to become the commonest indication for liver transplantation in the United States. Bariatric surgery shows great promise in the treatment of these diseases. The studies proposed herein will be the first to measure in humans the relationships among (i) the liver's ability to burn fat and make glucose, two of its primary functions; (ii) the severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease; and (iii) the responses to bariatric surgery. These experiments will support deeper future mechanistic investigations of the metabolic mechanisms underlying nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) improvement with bariatric surgery. The premise of this study is that deranged hepatic mitochondrial metabolism is a key biomarker and mediator of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/NASH continuum, and the central hypothesis the investigators will test is that preoperative hepatic fat oxidation and glucose production flux parameters differ between low versus high NAFLD activity score (NAS), and response of the liver to bariatric surgery can be predicted by preoperative fluxes.

Effect of Mediterranean Diet Combined With Intermittent Fasting on Liver Fibrosis Compared to Naltrexone/Bupropion in People With Cardiometabolic Risk Factors (MEDFAST-study)

In the Netherlands, there are many people with cardiometabolic diseases. More than half of these people also have fatty liver. This is a build-up of fat in the liver (steatosis) and can lead to long-term scarring (fibrosis) and even death of the liver. Losing weight can help reduce this. Losing weight can be done with medication such as naltrexone/bupropion (Mysimba®), which is often prescribed to people with cardiometabolic diseases, but losing weight can also be done with diet. In this study, the investigators want to combine a Mediterranean diet (with lots of vegetables, fruits, whole grain products, nuts and olive oil) with intermittent fasting. In addition participants are not allowed to eat after the evening meal. The investigators will compare this with a group of participants receiving Mysimba®, to see if a diet with intermittent fasting might be better for reducing liver steatosis and fibrosis in people with cardiometabolic diseases.

Technology-Supported Treatment of Sleep Apnea in Prediabetes

Despite the efficacy of intensive lifestyle interventions in prediabetes, the incidence of diabetes is rising, and thus there is a critical need for additional strategies to prevent diabetes and to reduce its cardiovascular complications in this high-risk population. Sleep apnea is a highly common condition in prediabetes, but it has been mostly ignored and undertreated in current practice. The proposed study will be the first to assess whether adding CPAP (continuous positive air pressure) treatment to a lifestyle intervention improves cardiometabolic outcomes beyond that achieved with lifestyle alone (i.e. current standard of care) in high-risk individuals with prediabetes.
