Memory study for adults with obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how memory (called 'mnestic' function) works in people with obesity. Researchers will use MRI scans to compare brain activity related to memory, which could help improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses brain scans (MRI and two special PET scans) to see how Alzheimer’s-related changes show up in people who are overweight or obese, with different blood-sugar and insulin patterns. It may help researchers understand whether body weight and metabolism affect early Alzheimer’s markers in the brain.
This study looks at how severe obesity affects thinking and memory. It may help doctors understand how weight affects the brain and improve care for people with obesity.
This study tests a program to help people with obesity lose weight. It looks at how well the program works and if it is safe for participants.
This study looks at how weight loss and exercise affect brain health in people having weight-loss surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an exercise program or usual care, and brain scans (MRI) will be used to measure changes over a year.
