Some patients undergoing weight loss surgery do not achieve their weight loss goals and regain the weight they lost. When this occurs, the loss of muscle and strength combined with the regain of weight can impact the individual's quality of life and ability to remain active and mobile.\n\nThe purpose of this study is to understand the behavioral, biological, and genetic factors that influence the success of weight loss surgery and its impact on muscle mass.\n\nBariatric surgery patients participating in the trial will be monitored prior to, and for a year following weight loss surgery, with data collected about their eating habits, hand grip strength, and the loss of fat, muscle, and body weight following surgery. In patients who undergo a routine endoscopy in advance of weight loss surgery a small sample of gut tissue will be collected to identify the expression (activity) of genes in their DNA.",[250],"Bariatric Surgery Patients",[252,253,254,255,256],"Body composition","Sarcopenia","Weight loss surgery","Muscle function","Protein metabolism","2026-07-08",{"date":203,"type":37},{"date":260,"type":37},"2025-11-04",{"date":262,"type":21},"2027-08",{"name":43,"class":44},{"id":265,"slug":266,"hasResults":12,"nctId":267,"briefTitle":268,"officialTitle":269,"acronym":270,"eligibilityCriteria":271,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":17,"minAge":272,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":273,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":275,"briefSummary":276,"conditions":277,"keywords":279,"overallStatus":33,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":282,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":283,"startDateStruct":285,"completionDateStruct":287,"leadSponsor":289,"locationsCount":135},"100541919","oasis-peer-support-for-t2dm-in-appalachia-peer-participant-100541919","NCT06336122","OASIS: Peer Support for T2DM in Appalachia (Peer Participant)","Older Adults Using Social Support to Improve Self-Care: Adaptation, Implementation, and Feasibility of Peer Support for Older Adults With T2DM in Appalachia.","OASIS","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age greater than or equal to 55 years\n* Resident in Rural Kentucky\n* Positive Diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus\n* HbA1c greater than or equal to 7.5%\n* Passing score on cognitive assessment administered by study personnel\n* English Speaking\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age less than 55 years\n* Not a resident of a Rural Kentucky County\n* No Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Diagnosis\n* HbA1c under 7.5%\n* Cognitive Impairment\n* Non-english speaking","55 Years",{"count":274,"type":21},76,[24],"The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of peer coaching models in older adults with unmanaged type two diabetes.
