Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

The main achievements of the Moebiustrial are given in the report prepared by the University Hospital of Basel. The main tasks of BMR in the Moebius project were to participate in the following areas:
· Prepare study procedures for the health care trials (case report forms, documentations for Ethic's committee submittance;
· prepare software procedures for data analysis and statistics)
· act as a monitor for the health care trial
· perform statistical analysis of the health care trial;
· prepare a complete statistical report.
.
The work of BMR for the MOEBIUS project was specifically in the following areas
· Obesity trial aiming at risk reduction (Risk Reduction Trial in young obese patients). This trial included a diet, an exercise programme and a specific drug therapy on an interactive platform to achieve an integrated weight control programme. Energy intake was individually adjusted by dieticians for each subject on the basis of calculated daily maintenance energy requirements. A fitness programme was designed for each individual and physical activity was checked by regular controls. Finally, patients had the option to take the fat pill orlistat to support their weight loosing strategy. The monitoring of all data collected by the different trial participants (patients, physicians and nurses at the Kantonsspital Schwyz; dieticians at the Kantonsspital Schwyz and physical activity recordings by the physiotherapist, data recordings by Medgate) was done on a monthly basis. Data entries were checked for correctness. Based on these data, the statistical analyses were performed.
· ACT - Anti-Coagulation Trial
· A similar approach was used to supervise the anticoagulation trial. In the ACT Trial, 5 patients requiring chronic anticoagulation were included in the trial. In order to observe these patients for a prolonged period of time, the trial was prolonged to September 2002. Two patients could be followed for several weeks. The monitoring of all data collected by the different trial participants (patients, physicians and nurses at the University Hospital in Basel; data recordings by Medgate) was done on a monthly basis. Data entries were checked for correctness. Based on these data, a descriptive analysis were performed.
