VEGA - Behavioral innovations in the management of overweight and obesity in adult population - 2022 - 2024 - co-investigator

Increasing overweight and obesity rates represent one of the global challenges of public health in 21st century. Obesity is a gateway to many noncommunicable diseases that lead to decreased life expectancy. Evidence on the association between COVID-19 and underlying obesity provides new urgency – and inspiration for public health action to eliminate and manage overweight and obesity. Despite the crucial role of general practitioners in prevention and treatment of excess weight and related comorbidities, healthcare professionals may feel a lack of competence in taking care of obese patients.

APVV - Opportunities for advancing health and weight management - 2025 - 2029 - co-invsetigator

Increasing overweight and obesity rates represent one of the global challenges in the 21st century. Although eating pathology, low food literacy, and weight stigma may significantly contribute to poor physical and mental health and larger body size, these factors are rarely addressed in weight management. The widely prevailing paradigm in society at large and in clinical practice perceives body size as a subject to permanent manipulation through diet and exercise. However, these anti-obesity efforts and weight-centric paradigms may be unintentionally complicit in contributing to weight stigma and undermining their intended effect. The main goal of the project is to develop behavioral data-driven recommendations on how to optimize current and evolving evidence-based strategies to improve the health of the population. Thus, we aim to identify the potential enablers and barriers to efficient health and weight management; and to investigate the intersection of behavioral insights, weight stigma, and food literacy in the treatment of obesity. The obtained knowledge may help to equip healthcare professionals and patients with the capacity to understand the negative effects of stigmatization and thin ideals on health, strengthen healthcare professionals’ skills in weight management, and encourage people to take more responsibility and actively participate in managing their health

VVGS PCOV - Additional benefits of inclisiran in patients with very high cardiovascular risk - 2026 - 2027 - solver

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries in the 21st century. Although the causal role of LDL-cholesterol in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis has been clearly established, so-called residual cardiovascular risk persists in a significant proportion of patients even after achieving target lipid levels. The current scientific paradigm increasingly emphasizes the key role of chronic subclinical inflammation and oxidative stress in atherogenesis and the destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques. Inclisiran, an innovative siRNA-based therapeutic modality, has demonstrated high efficacy in reducing LDL-cholesterol; however, its potential pleiotropic effects on the inflammatory cascade and oxidative balance remain insufficiently explored. The primary objective of the proposed project is to comprehensively map the additional benefits of inclisiran in high-risk patients, focusing on non-lipid mechanisms of action. The research will focus on monitoring the dynamics of inflammatory markers (hsCRP and a cytokine panel: IL-6, IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α) and the antioxidant activity of enzymes (SOD, GPx) before and after treatment administration. The findings will help clarify whether inclisiran modifies the inflammatory and oxidative environment of the vascular wall in addition to its hypolipidemic effect. The project results may contribute to optimizing the management of patients with high cardiovascular risk and to a better understanding of the complex benefits of this modern therapy in the context of preventing atherothrombotic events. The project represents one of the first pilot studies in the Central European region to simultaneously analyze the impact of siRNA therapy on both the humoral and cellular components of inflammation in correlation with antioxidant capacity
