An intent-to-treat randomized design coupled with a time-series design will be used to assess differential adjustment between the treatment and control groups, and to assess differential changes in adjustment between adolescent parents across four time-points. A block randomization design will be used to randomly assign eight participating schools into one of four treatment conditions based on curriculum assignment. Schools can receive a co-parenting (COPAR), healthy romantic relationship (HRR), and/or a control (CONT) curriculum each semester. Treatment conditions reflect schools which receive a full treatment model (i.e., COPAR-HRR, HRR-COPARE) or a partial treatment model (i.e., COPAR-CONT, and HRR-CONT). The investigators hypothesize that youth participating in the full-treatment group will show statistically significant immediate and sustained improvements in well-being, as well as larger improvements in their co-parenting and relationship knowledge and behaviors post treatment and more sustained improvements in co-parenting and relationship behaviors six months post-treatment than youth in the partial-treatment group. Couples in the program will show better co-parenting and relationship outcomes than couples where only one adolescent participated.
The study will examine, through quantitative and qualitative research, how the delivery of the program "In Favor of Myself" to school children influences the program facilitators themselves, and the effect on their self-esteem, body-image, and media literacy.
The main goal of the research is to apply and evaluate the web-based preventive intervention (the Be a Mom program), in terms of its efficacy, acceptability and feasibility (user's adherence, dropout), and user's satisfaction. Prior to the randomized controlled trial (RCT), the investigators will conduct a pilot trial to evaluate the preliminary version of the Be a Mom program in high-risk women (random assignment to the intervention or to the control condition). The RCT will be a two-arm prevention trial. Women who have had a child during the prior month will be enrolled in the study. A minimum number of 1000 women will be enrolled in the study. After agreeing to participate in the study, the women will be screened for the presence of risk factors for PPD and early-onset PPD symptoms (using self-report questionnaires) by a researcher (licensed psychologist). In case of a negative screen, women's participation in the study will end. In case of a positive screen (high-risk women), women will be randomly assigned to one of the conditions: the intervention (Be a Mom program) or the control condition. The sample will be recruited online and at the maternities of Coimbra University Hospitals-CHUC, EPE. Participation in the study will last 11 months. The Be a Mom program will last 5 weeks. Participants in both conditions will be invited by the researchers via email to complete baseline, post-intervention and follow-up (4-months and 12-months after childbirth) assessments. Assessments will include self-report questionnaires to assess several indicators (e.g., depressive and anxiety symptoms, dyadic adjustment, mother-child bonding, and maternal confidence), mechanisms that may be involved in the treatment response (e.g., npsychological flexibility, emotional regulation) and user's acceptability and satisfaction.
In China, there's no effective prevention and treatment on preterm birth for pregnant women ≥35 years old, so this study is necessary.
There is a need for the development and validation of new teaching strategies and resources for surgical training that can occur outside of the operating room. The use of surgical videos is not novel however it has not been validated as an effective approach for gynecologic surgical training. The goals of our study are to (1) develop an educational surgical video for laparoscopic salpingo-oophrectomy (LSO) and (2) to evaluate and test the effectiveness of this tool in preparing residents for performance in the operating room.
The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic D1 lymphadenectomy for elderly patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma（cT2-4a, N-/+, M0）
National Jewish Health and The University of Arizona worked with Navajo Nation organizations to develop this program to improve the health of children with asthma. The Navajo Community Asthma Program will have two main parts. One will train doctors and health care professionals to improve the diagnosis and treatment of asthma. The second part will work with area schools to provide education to school nurses, teachers, and children to help them better understand asthma. The project also works with families to help them know how to best take care of their child's asthma. A major project aim is to make sure that doctors, teachers, and families work together to manage asthma.
In order to determine the effectiveness and safety of early vitamin K1 use in reducing the risk of bleeding and improving prognosis in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. Patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (excluding rupture of aneurysm and vascular malformation) will be randomly divided into experimental group and control group. All the patients in the two groups were treated according to the guideline of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. Patients in the experimental group was treated with intravenous injection of vitamin K1 20mg once a day for 2 days after admission, and the patients in control group was treated with normal saline as a control. The hematoma volume, coagulation function, platelet levels and GCS scales of the two groups will be recorded in 0d, 1d, 3d, 7d post bleeding stroke, furthermore, length of ICU stay and total hospitalization, incidence of complications during hospitalization are to be recorded. During the follow-up, mRS score will be recorded at 1m and 6m post bleeding stroke.
The proposed study is designed to test the hypothesis that in human obesity, the balance of pro- and anti-inflammatory T cells in fat tissue is in fact related to macrophage phenotype and insulin resistance, and how it is related. This study is needed to confirm whether conclusions based on studies of visceral adipose tissue in mice are indeed applicable to humans. We also want to determine the relationship between insulin resistance/hyperinsulinemia and ability to lose weight in obese individuals.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationship between the direction and degree of nasal septal deviation with nasal bone morphology , along with factors such as age and gender.
