Weight Loss Via Intelligent Guidance in Patients With Coronary Heart Disease and Obesity: a Randomized Clinical Trial
Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
140 participants
Apr 18, 2026
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is an ischemic heart disease caused by coronary atherosclerosis, and it is the leading cause of death from cardiovascular diseases worldwide. Weight loss in obese patients can significantly improve metabolic indicators such as dyslipidemia and insulin resistance; therefore, weight loss may become a target for improving the prognosis of obese patients with coronary heart disease. This study is a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial aimed at evaluating the effect of software-based healthy weight loss guidance (personalized diet + exercise intervention) in obese patients with coronary heart disease. It is expected that 136 patients will be enrolled in hospitals including Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, with a total study duration of 1 year.

Interventions
This study implements a personalized intervention combining dietary regulation, exercise training, safety protocols, and adherence assessment. Dietary intervention: Target energy intake = basal energy expenditure×1.3-500kcal; basal energy expenditure is estimated via gender-specific Harris-Benedict formula (0.9 correction), ideal weight by height and BMI 24.9. Macronutrient ratios are selected based on comorbidities and baseline indicators; software generates personalized meal plans, with participants uploading daily food photos for calorie/nutrient analysis and reports. Exercise intervention: Standardized guidance and progressive prescriptions are provided. Aerobic intensity (CPET-determined anaerobic threshold heart rate±10) involves ultra-slow jogging/brisk walking (150-180 steps/min, RPE 10-12), 30-40min core training +10min warm-up/cool-down, ≥5 times/week. Elastic band resistance training (≥3 times/week) uses video guidance.
