Stay In Treatment for Pediatric Weight Management
Recruiting
Attrition from pediatric weight management programs is unacceptably high, with dropout ranging from 27-73%. This project will utilize a model that predicts dropout from treatment, increasing its power and accuracy through a multi-site observational study. This will result in a powerful tool that will be used to decrease attrition from pediatric weight management, with the potential for widespread dissemination to improve treatment outcomes.

Effects of Adding L-BAIBA to Exercising Adult Overweight and Obese Men and Women
Recruiting
Beta-amino isobutyric acid (BAIBA) is a myokine produced in skeletal muscle and has been shown to impact how our body metabolizes fuel. We seek to examine changes in body composition, weight loss, glucose control, and cardiometabolic risk factors after adding supplementation of BAIBA to exercise in overweight and obese men and women.
