Breath test for metabolic syndrome and obesity health
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study uses a breath test to see if it can tell the difference between people with metabolic syndrome, those with obesity but otherwise healthy, and healthy controls. It aims to find a simple way to check metabolic health without blood draws.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (over 18 years old).
- You can be in one of three groups: metabolic syndrome, obesity without other problems, or healthy weight.
- You must not have had a heart attack or stroke.
- You must not have diabetes (type 1 or 2), chronic kidney disease, or serious liver disease.
- You must not have cancer now or in the past, active infections, or lung diseases.

This study looks at how weight and blood-sugar/fat changes in the body may affect the airways in people with asthma. You may be asked to complete breathing tests and possibly an airway procedure (bronchoscopy) to help researchers compare groups.
This trial compares the metabolic profiles of healthy adults to help researchers better understand metabolic syndrome. Participation may contribute to medical research and includes a health assessment.
This study tests a new, non-invasive breath test that may help diagnose dyslipidemia (unhealthy levels of fats in your blood). If you have or are at risk for high cholesterol or triglycerides, this simple breath test could offer a more comfortable way to detect the condition.
This study uses a special machine to analyze exhaled breath to learn about different illnesses in children and teens. It may help researchers find breathing “signals” that reflect conditions like breathing problems, nervous system issues, or new/worsening type 1 diabetes.
This study is testing a new device that measures blood sugar levels by analyzing your breath. It is for people with type 2 diabetes or those who are overweight, to see if the breath test can work as a non-invasive way to monitor glucose.
This study uses a special device called an electronic nose to analyze your breath and look for signs of several diseases. It is a simple, non-invasive test that may help find health issues earlier, possibly leading to better treatment outcomes.
