Obese Adults

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a precision lifestyle medicine intervention can improve cardiometabolic health in Emirati adults aged 25 to 50 years living in Abu Dhabi with obesity (BMI 30-35 kg/m²) who have previously completed IFHAS screening. The study will also use IFHAS screening data to better understand participants' health profiles and the relationship between lifestyle factors and chronic diseases. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does a precision lifestyle medicine program improve cardiometabolic biomarkers after an 18-week intervention? * Can IFHAS screening data be used to identify health risk profiles and support personalized lifestyle interventions for the Emirati population? Researchers will compare participants receiving the precision lifestyle medicine intervention with a propensity-matched control group receiving standard IFHAS care to determine whether the intervention leads to greater improvements in cardiometabolic health. Participants will: * Take part in an 18-week personalized lifestyle medicine program tailored to their health profile. * Attend study visits and complete health assessments over a total study period of 24 weeks. * Undergo cardiometabolic biomarker assessments before and after the intervention. * Complete questionnaires or assessments about their adherence to the lifestyle program and their experience with the precision lifestyle medicine clinic. * Provide biological samples to support the establishment of a biomarker repository for future research.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of MB-1 on metabolic health in overweight and obese adults. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the difference in change in body weight from baseline at Day 84 between MB-1 and placebo? Participants will be provided MB-1 or placebo and be assessed for anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, heart rate, and asked to complete appetite and satiety questionnaires and undergo a DEXA scan.

The study is observational and single-center and involves (i) the establishment of a retrospective and prospective data collection, and (ii) the development of prognostic and predictive models of response to obesity therapies using statistical modeling and machine learning techniques, exclusively for research purposes. Data collection will be carried out for each patient diagnosed with obesity or overweight whose first visit to the center occurred from January 1, 2000 up to the start of the study, as well as for patients accessing the center during the subsequent 5 years, including patients who died or were lost to follow-up. With respect to the primary objective, an interim analysis is planned on the retrospective cohort only, once the collection of data already available at study start has been completed for patients with at least 5 years of follow-up. Data related to instrumental and laboratory examinations and therapeutic interventions, including pharmacological treatments and group-based educational and behavioral therapies, conducted in accordance with routine clinical practice and the most recent relevant national and international guidelines, will be extracted from the electronic health records routinely used at the study center.

A 12-week, randomized, placebo-controlled trial testing the efficacy of n-3 PUFA treatment (EPA, 2 g/day) in alleviating depressive symptoms in a subgroup of obese subjects with comorbid depression and low n-3 PUFA status (n-3 index \< 8%) (81), from the Taiwanese cohort. Associations with PLA2/COX2 genotypes, lifestyle, nutritional profiles and gut microbiota will also be determined.
