187 Targeted Lung Health Check Programme at Frimley Health Foundation Trust
Lung cancer remains the 3rd most common cancer in England, leading cause of cancer death in the UK. In the last ten years, patients have benefited from the development of targeted therapies for patients however prognosis remains limited, and most patients will die of the disease within five years of diagnosis. It was recommended by the UK national screening committee in June 2022 that we move forward to implement TLHC screening. (Source: Lung Cancer)

Liraglutide 3.0 mg in the treatment of adults with obesity and prediabetes using real‐world UK data: A clinical evaluation of a multi‐ethnic population
Graphical abstract of study findings. SummaryUK guidelines recommend liraglutide 3.0 mg in adults treated within specialist weight management services with BMI ≥35 kg/m2, prediabetes and high cardiovascular disease risk. We aimed to clinically evaluate liraglutide 3.0 mg in specialist weight management services. We evaluated liraglutide 3.0 mg in weight management services at Guys and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust. Objective body weight (BW) was measured at baseline and 4 months, allowing classification as ‘responders’ (≥5% BW reduction) and ‘non -responders’ (<5% BW reduction). One hundred and...

Manchester Intermittent Diet in Gestational Diabetes Acceptability Study (MIDDAS-GDM): a two-arm randomised feasibility protocol trial of an intermittent low-energy diet (ILED) in women with gestational diabetes and obesity in Greater Manchester
This study aims to test the safety, feasibility and acceptability of an ILED intervention among women with GDM compared with best National Health Service (NHS) care.
Method and analysis
We aim to recruit 48 women with GDM diagnosed between 24 and 30 weeks gestation from antenatal clinics at Wythenshawe and St Mary’s hospitals, Manchester Foundation Trust, over 13 months starting in November 2022. Participants will be randomised (1:1) to ILED (2 low-energy diet days/week of 1000 kcal and 5 days/week of the best NHS care healthy diet and physical activity advice) or best NHS care 7 days/week until delivery of their ba...
