Contemporary antiobesity medications (AOMs) are highly efficacious for the treatment of obesity and obesity‐related comorbidities. Given this effectiveness, lifestyle factors within the context of AOM treatments need to refocus and move away from efforts to enhance weight loss. Rather, lifestyle considerations should pivot to being complementary to the benefits realized with AOM treatment and be redirected...
Objective
This study aimed to determine whether novel biomarkers of cardiometabolic health improve in response to a 12‐month behavioral weight‐loss intervention and to compare benefits of diet alone with diet plus physical activity for these biomarkers.
Methods
Participants (N = 374) were randomized to either diet alone (DIET), diet plus 150 min/wk of prescribed moderate‐intensity physical activity...
Objective
The primary aim of this study was to examine the change in left ventricular mass (LVM) in adults with overweight or obesity in response to a behavioral weight‐loss intervention, with variable physical activity (PA) prescriptions.
Methods
A total of 383 adults were randomized to a 12‐month intervention of diet modification (DIET), DIET plus 150 min/wk of PA (DIET+MODPA), or DIET plus prescription...
The Fitness Versus Body Fat Hypothesis argues that cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) plays a more important role in cardiovascular health than adiposity. It remains poorly understood whether CRF or adiposity accounts for a greater amount of variation in measures of brain health. We examined the contribution of CRF, adiposity, and their interaction with hippocampal structure. This study included 124...
Preserved physical function is key for successful liver transplantation (LT); however, prehabilitation strategies are underdeveloped. We created a smartphone application (app), EL‐FIT (Exercise and Liver FITness), to facilitate exercise training in end‐stage liver disease (ESLD). In this feasibility study, we tested EL‐FIT app usage and the accuracy of physical activity data transfer and obtained...
Objective
This study examined the feasibility and comparison of two styles of yoga within the context of a standard behavioral weight‐loss intervention (SBWI).
Methods
Fifty adults with obesity (BMI: 31.3 ± 3.8 kg/m2) participated in this 6‐month study that included a SBWI and a calorie‐ and fat‐reduced diet. Randomization was to restorative Hatha (SBWI+RES) or Vinyasa (SBWI+VIN) yoga. Yoga was...
