Intragastric Balloon and Time-Restricted Eating for Weight Loss in Adults With Overweight or Obesity
Effects of Intragastric Balloon and Time-Restricted Intermittent Fasting Diet on Weight Loss and Metabolic Parameters in Adults With Overweight and Obesity
The goal of this non-randomized clinical study is to learn whether an intragastric balloon (IGB) and time-restricted eating (TRE; 16-hour daily fast with an 8-hour eating window), used alone or together, improve weight loss, body composition, and metabolic parameters in adults aged 18 to 65 years with overweight or obesity (body mass index 27.0 to 39.9 kg/m²). Participants are followed in four groups according to whether they have an IGB (placed as part of routine clinical care, not assigned by the study) and whether they choose to follow TRE: (1) standard nutrition therapy, (2) IGB plus standard nutrition therapy, (3) TRE plus standard nutrition therapy, and (4) IGB plus TRE plus standard nutrition therapy. All participants receive the same individualized energy-restricted diet, dietitian follow-up, behavioral education, and physical activity advice. Body weight and body composition are measured at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months; routine laboratory results are recorded at baseline and 6 months.

Descripción detallada
This is a prospective, single-center, non-randomized, exploratory (pilot) study with a 2×2 factorial structure. The two factors are intragastric balloon (IGB; present/absent) and time-restricted eating (TRE; yes/no). IGB placement is not a study procedure: it is performed as routine clinical care according to the physician's indication and the patient's preference, and the investigators have no role in that decision. TRE is offered in the dietetics outpatient clinic; participants who wish to follow it are allocated to the TRE groups, and those who do not are followed with standard nutrition therapy alone.
All groups receive the same frequency of dietitian visits, the same behavioral education, comparable energy targets, and the same physical activity advice (7,500 to 10,000 steps per day), so that groups differ only in IGB status and TRE. Body composition is measured by multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis. Laboratory values are taken from routine clinical test results; no additional blood samples are drawn. Dietary intake is assessed with 3-day food records and physical activity with participants' smartphone step counters.
At least 15 participants per group (60 in total) are planned. Main and interaction effects of IGB and TRE will be analyzed with two-way analysis of variance or general linear models, and changes over time with repeated-measures analysis of variance or linear mixed models, adjusting for age, sex, baseline body mass index, comorbidities, physical activity, and energy intake.

Comparador activo: Standard Nutrition Therapy
Participants without an intragastric balloon who receive standard energy-restricted nutrition therapy only. |
Individualized balanced diet with approximately 25% energy restriction from the estimated daily energy requirement (typically 1000 to 1400 kcal/day; protein 1.0 to 1.5 g/kg/day, carbohydrate 35 to 50% and fat 25 to 35% of energy), with regular dietitian follow-up, behavioral education, and advice to walk 7,500 to 10,000 steps per day. |
|
Comparador activo: IGB + Standard Nutrition Therapy
Participants with an intragastric balloon (IGB) placed as part of routine clinical care who receive standard energy-restricted nutrition therapy. |
Individualized balanced diet with approximately 25% energy restriction from the estimated daily energy requirement (typically 1000 to 1400 kcal/day; protein 1.0 to 1.5 g/kg/day, carbohydrate 35 to 50% and fat 25 to 35% of energy), with regular dietitian follow-up, behavioral education, and advice to walk 7,500 to 10,000 steps per day. Endoscopically placed intragastric balloon, performed as part of routine clinical care based on physician indication and patient preference; placement is not assigned by the study. Diet after placement progresses through clear liquid, full liquid, pureed, and solid stages according to routine clinical practice. |
|
Experimental: TRE + Standard Nutrition Therapy
Participants without an intragastric balloon who follow time-restricted eating (TRE; 16-hour daily fast, 8-hour eating window) in addition to standard energy-restricted nutrition therapy. |
Individualized balanced diet with approximately 25% energy restriction from the estimated daily energy requirement (typically 1000 to 1400 kcal/day; protein 1.0 to 1.5 g/kg/day, carbohydrate 35 to 50% and fat 25 to 35% of energy), with regular dietitian follow-up, behavioral education, and advice to walk 7,500 to 10,000 steps per day. Daily food intake limited to an 8-hour eating window with a 16-hour fast. The recommended fasting period is 18:00 to 10:00; alternative 16-hour periods (such as 19:00 to 11:00 or 20:00 to 12:00) are allowed. Water and non-caloric beverages are permitted during the fasting period. Energy and macronutrient targets are identical to standard nutrition therapy. Duration: 6 weeks. |
