The Wim Hof Method is a multi-disciplinary approach to physical and mental well-being combining cold exposure, breathing exercises, and meditation. This study evaluated the effects of a 15-day WHM intervention on cardiovascular parameters at rest and during a cold pressor test, as well as on various psychological parameters.
This study was planned to investigate the effect of TRE on the nutritional status and diet quality of individuals and to compare the effects of TRE and energy-restricted diet (ERD) in healthy overweight individuals. The female individuals were randomly divided into the TRE or ERD groups in an unbiased manner using a computer-generated block randomisation list. Individuals in the TRE group applied a diet limited to 8 hours for 8 weeks (16/8). They were fed ad libitum between 10.00 a.m-06.00 p.m and fasted between 06.00 p.m-10.00 a.m.No restrictions were imposed on the type and amount of food consumed during the feeding period. During the fasting period, individuals consumed water and non-energy drinks (tea, coffee, soda, etc.). Individuals in the ERD group followed a diet specially prepared for them for 8 weeks. At the first encounter with individuals, resting energy expenditure (REE) was measured by the indirect calorimetry method. Physical Activity Level (PAL) was determined by physical activity record. The total energy expenditure (TEE) of individuals was determined using the 'REE x PAL' formulation. 'TEE-500 kcal' formulation was used for the diet to be given to individuals. Individuals were not given a diet containing energy below the REE. Acceptable macronutrient distribution range (AMDR) were taken as dietary content. The diet given to individuals has 45-65% carbohydrate, 20-35% fat, 10-35% protein content. Nutritional habits of individuals were taken into consideration while planning the diet. Each individual consumed 3 main meals and the number of snacks was determined individually. Food exchange lists were given to individuals and nutrient changes were explained in detail. Anthropometric and body composition measurements of individuals were taken. The energy expenditure was measured using indirect calorimetry. Blood pressure and heart rate measurements were made. Biochemical parameters were evaluated and food consumption were taken. The quality of dietary intake was assessed using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) -2015.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing intervention may improve anxiety, depression, systolic blood pressure and heart rate variability in patients with hypertension.
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand whether the adoption of digital solutions by healthcare professionals and patients improves the management of patients with high blood pressure. The main questions it aims to answer are: - are these digital solutions feasible and well accepted by patients? - can these solutions, compared to standard care, allow a better hypertension control in patients with high blood pressure? Participants randomised to one of the two intervention arms will be asked to adopt the digital solutions that include a smartphone app and 2 devices for blood pressure and body weight measurement that will be connected to the app. Researchers will compare patients randomised in the two intervention groups with patients randomised to standard care (control group)
The aim of this trial study is to identify the effect of S-VR on comfort and self-efficacy of symptom management in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Additional objectives of this study include: (a) identifying the effect of S-VR on anxiety in chemotherapy patients; (b) identifying the effect of S-VR on pain intensity of chemotherapy patients; (c) identifying the effect of S-VR on vital signs (pulse and blood pressure) of chemotherapy patients. Participants is randomly assigned into two group: SVR intervention group and control group. In the SVR group, participants will use a VR device (head-mounted display/HMD) with 360-degree natural panoramic and music relaxation contents. Control group will receive standard care in the form of guided imagery leaflet. The research will adhere to the ethical standards outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and its subsequent amendments, as well as the protocol under reviewed by Medical and Health Research Ethics Committee (MHREC) Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing Universitas Gadjah Mada - Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta (Approval Number: KE/FK/0301/EC/2023). A formal informed consent will be obtained from all study participants. Validation number: 63f81182672f3 (http://komisietik.fk.ugm.ac.id/validasi)
The goal of this study is to determine whether intravenous sedation would contribute to the stabilization of hemodynamics in adult patients during periodontal/implant surgery compared to receiving local anesthesia during periodontal/implant surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate how accurately the CART-I plus developed by Sky Labs can measure blood pressure. The primary endpoint of this clinical trial is accuracy (mmHg) of 'CART-I plus' which is obtained by calculating mean error and standard deviation of blood pressure differences between 'CART-I plus' and the gold standard for non-invasive method, auscultatory method. The reference readings are taken by auscultatory method using a sphygmomanometer and a stethoscope. The mean errors and standard deviations are calculated both sample- and subject-wise.
Whether an intensive short-term dietary sodium restricted intervention will have beneficial effects on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and on the susceptibility to develop proteinuria, both measures of kidney function will be the objective of this study
The primary objective of this study is to collect training data in order to establish a method for correlating arterial blood pressure with voltage output signals from a non-invasive piezoelectric array sensor placed on the skin superficial to the radial artery.
