Metabolic health check for young women of normal weight
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at young women of normal weight to find early signs of metabolic problems. The goal is to identify those who may have a higher risk for conditions like diabetes or heart disease, even though their weight is healthy.

This study uses ultrasound scans to measure muscle mass in people with metabolic conditions like type 2 diabetes and obesity. It may help doctors understand how these conditions affect muscles and could lead to better care.
This study does not test a new treatment. It is a pre-screening program to see if you might qualify for future clinical trials on metabolic conditions (like diabetes or weight issues) or psychiatric health (like depression or anxiety). You will be asked some questions and may do some basic health checks to see which future trials could be a good fit for you.
This study looks at how aging and body weight affect health and metabolism. Researchers will collect detailed measurements (like scans and blood tests) to understand why some people age better than others. You may join if you are in one of five age/weight groups.
This study looks at how body composition (muscle and fat) affects blood vessel health in women who have a healthy body weight. The goal is to learn more about blood vessel function in this group.
This study follows people who have obesity but are otherwise metabolically healthy, to see how their health changes over time. You may qualify if your blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol are normal.
This study looks at how everyday physical activity affects metabolism in healthy women. It may help researchers understand how to improve metabolic health through daily movement.
