Filter by:PRO-MENTAL is a non-interventional, prospective, observational study investigating longitudinal associations between diabetes distress, mental disorders, and glycemic outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study aims to determine mental health subtypes, trajectories, and patterns and to advance a precision medicine approach to improve mental health in people with diabetes through personalized care and interventions. A total of 1500 people with T1D or T2D will participate in the study, running over a 24-month period. Participants will be recruited at different levels of diabetes care including specialized centers and hospitals. The assessment includes a baseline assessment (clinical interview, questionnaire survey, and laboratory assessment) and four subsequent measurement time points - every six months - to a total period of two years. Each measurement time point includes an online questionnaire survey as well as a 14-day ambulatory assessment of daily mental and somatic variables (smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) of daily sleep quality, mood, stress, and diabetes-related burdens/distress, as well as continuous glucose measurement (CGM) of daily glucose levels). The study uses precision monitoring to identify evidence-based subgroups of people with diabetes with regard to mental disorders/problems and glycemic outcome. Epidemiological data regarding prevalence and incidence rates of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders will be analyzed, and patient trajectories and patterns will be determined. The study also aims to shed more light on the mediating mechanisms between mental health and glycemic outcomes. The findings of the study will be used as the basis to develop a precision medicine approach with personalized interventions for specific sub-groups of people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Previous studies have shown that polyphenol-rich foods can positively affect cognitive functions, memory, and mood in humans. We hypothesize that both acute and chronic intake of muscadine wine polyphenols will improve cognitive performance and mood through regulating the HPA axis, alleviating inflammation and oxidative stress, and/or inhibiting monoamine oxidase activities
The objective of this research is to assess the effects of engaging in coloring activities on patients' self-reported pain and anxiety scores while they wait to be seen by a physician in an emergency department (ED). The current literature on patient visits in the ED highlights the significance of anxiety, stress, and frustration in patient experiences, especially when accounting for long wait times before the physician-patient encounter. The study will address this common problem by looking at the potential impact of nature-themed or geometric shape coloring activities on the ED patient experience as it relates to self-reported anxiety and pain scores. Given that long wait times are increasingly being reported across the country, this study may offer a possible meaningful low-budget, low-resource intervention which could be offered to patients.
It is emphasized in studies that child and parent anxiety that arises in pediatric surgery should be prevented or reduced. According to previous studies, one way to reduce child and parent anxiety in the preoperative period is therapeutic play interventions. This study was planned to compare the effectiveness of two different therapeutic play interventions (bubble breathing play therapy and tell-show-do play therapy) in reducing preoperative anxiety of children and parents who are scheduled for elective surgery.
We plan to evaluate the potential of binaural beat stimulation as a cost-effective tool to improve perioperative patient outcome. Preoperative anxiety and postoperative neurocognitive disorders are two major issues patients have to deal with in the perioperative period. In this context, preoperative stress and anxiety are independent risk factors for postoperative neurocognitive disorders. The primary goal of our proposed study therefore is to reduce preoperative anxiety by stimulating patients with binaural beats. As binaural beats might also entrain brainwaves, the secondary goal of the study is to investigate whether binaural beats can induce alpha oscillatory activity during emergence from anesthesia. This type of oscillation has been demonstrated to be protective for postoperative neurocognitive disorders and might therefore complement the effects of preoperative anxiety reduction.
This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a remotely-delivered, technology-assisted psychotherapy program, supported by an innovative software platform for people with cognitive impairment experiencing anxiety.
Latin dance is a kind of sports dance, which originated in Latin America, includes the rumba, samba, Cha Cha Cha, bullfighting dances and cowboy dances. Latin dance has bright and strong music rhythm, passion, bold, romantic style, Latin dance has a positive effect on physical and mental health. Latin dance offers a unique dimension that traditional aerobic exercise does not, namely interpersonal communication and interactivity. Dancing may provide additional cognitive benefits compared to other forms of PA, such as walking. Latin dance also provides a unique dimension that traditional aerobic exercise does not, that is, it is a complex sensory-motor rhythmic activity that integrates a variety of physical, cognitive and social factors. Based on the unique charm of Latin dance and previous articles on the influence of dance on social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem, there are few articles on Latin dance, and none of them have studied the influence of Latin dance on these two variables. This study analyzes the Latin dance on the social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem of middle school girls and provides theoretical support for the study to improve the social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem of middle school students, as well as to promote Latin dance. To promote the diversification of Chinese middle school sports in dance teaching.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), like all public safety personnel (PSP), are frequently exposed to potentially psychologically traumatic events that contribute to posttraumatic stress injuries (PTSI). Addressing PTSI is impeded by the limited available research. The RCMP are working to build evidence-based solutions to PTSI and other mental health challenges facing their members, which by extension will help all PSP, as part of the Canadian Government Federal Framework on Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. A key element is the "Longitudinal Study of Operational Stress Injuries / Étude longitudinale sur les traumatismes liés au stress opérationnel", a study which has been renamed "Risk and Resiliency Factors in the RCMP: A Prospective Investigation", and is referred to as the "RCMP Study" for short. The RCMP Study has been detailed online (www.rcmpstudy.ca) and in a recently published peer-reviewed protocol paper, "The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Study: protocol for a prospective investigation of mental health risk and resilience factors" (https://doi.org/10.24095/hpcdp.42.8.02). The RCMP Study, part of the concerted efforts by the RCMP to reduce PTSI by improving access to evidence-based assessments, treatments, and training as well as participant recruitment and RCMP Study developments to date. The RCMP Study has been designed to (1) develop, deploy and assess the impact of a system for ongoing annual, monthly and daily evidence-based assessments; (2) evaluate associations between demographic variables and PTSI; (3) longitudinally assess individual differences associated with PTSI; (4) augment the RCMP Cadet Training Program with skills to proactively mitigate PTSI; and (5) assess the impact of the augmented training condition (ATC) versus the standard training condition (STC). Participants in the STC (n = 480) and ATC (n = 480) are assessed before and after training and annually for 5 years on their deployment date; they also complete brief monthly and daily surveys. The RCMP Study results are expected to benefit the mental health of all participants, RCMP and PSP by reducing PTSI among all who serve.
The accuracy of endoscopic optical diagnosis for colorectal polyps has been approaching histological diagnosis after implementation of image enhancement endoscopic technologies. The real-time notification of possible nature of resected polyp after colonoscopy is expected to reduce the anxiety and depression level of the patients before the availability of histological diagnosis and improve their quality of life. We designed and conducted a randomized control trial to confirm this hypothesis.
The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of playing patient preferred audio clip for controlling the pain and anxiety in patients while dressing burn wounds. The age group to be selected for this explicit examination is 18 years and above. The researcher will assess the pain and anxiety levels in both experimental and control groups having sample size of 50 each using standardized tools. The patient in intervention group will be offered selected audio clips to choose from. The patient preferred audio clips will be played for 10 days while the control group will be provided with treatment as usual. After collecting the data from both groups, it will be compared to analyze the effectiveness of listening to the audio clips chosen by the patient.
