Filter by:The aim of the study is to investigate comparison the effectiveness of online aerobic dance exercises versus physical activity counselling in patients with Juvenile Familial Mediterranean Fever.
The aim of this thesis is; The aim of this study is to examine the effect of web-based training based on transtheoretic model on exercise behavior in patients with coronary artery disease. The research is a randomized controlled trial. 114 patient who meet the conditions for research will be included in the study. In collecting data, the Patient Information Form, Exercise Change Phase Short Question Form, Exercise Change Processes Scale, Exercise Decision Making Scale and Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale developed by the researcher will be used.
Recent studies and meta-analysis showed that different exercise plans had greater benefits than no invention group in improving pain, physical function, and disease activity, especially in some studies that involve ankylosing spondylitis patients receiving home-based exercise. Different kinds of exercises are efficacious and should be recommended to AS patients. But, according to our current knowledge, no clear protocols regarding the effectiveness of hippotherapy in AS patients. This study aims to investigate the effect of the therapeutic horseback riding therapy via a mechanical simulator on disease-specific outcomes and muscle strength of ankylosing spondylitis patients.
The purpose of this study is to test the short-term effects of physical activity promotion messages designed for midlife adults. These messages are designed to provide information and motivation for physical activity by engaging key social processes, such as social comparison (i.e., self-evaluations relative to others).
Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is one of the most neglected diseases worldwide, according to the World Health Organization. In the adult population with SCA, the systemic effects of the disease, such as respiratory and peripheral muscle dysfunction, cause a decrease in quality of life. As a consequence, there is a concern about functional rehabilitation, since the aging of this population is already a reality in our environment. Thus, the objective of this project is to evaluate the effects of functional rehabilitation on quality of life in adult patients over 18 years of SCA. In this longitudinal intervention study, patients will be submitted to a three-month rehabilitation program. Before and after the intervention, patients will be submitted to the following assessments: spirometry; quality of life questionnaire - Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36); functional scale of joint integrity - Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS); fatigue assessment scale - Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F); physical activity assessment questionnaire - International Physical Activity Questionaire (IPAQ); peripheral muscle assessment (handgrip and isometric dynamometry of the quadriceps muscle); and 6-minute walk test (6MWT). The protocol will consist of warm-up and cool-down exercises, muscle strengthening and endurance exercises, aerobic training, balance training and proprioception. Thus, it is expected that patients with sickle cell anemia will benefit significantly, with a consequent improvement in musculoskeletal function, pain and health-related quality of life.
The present study aims to examine the effects of Xbox Kinect exercise training program on the sleep quality, anxiety and functional capacity in older adults. Older adults were randomized into two groups. The XBOX group performed exercise with Xbox Kinect during 60 min, three times/week for 6 weeks. The CONTROL group did not exercise. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to evaluate sleep quality, anxiety symptoms by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the functional capacity was analyzed using following tests: Chair Stand Test, 8-Foot Up and Go Test, and 6-min Walk Test.
The primary goal of this two-month pilot study is to measure the behavioral change induced by targeted habit formation reminders that are surfaced via an iPhone app and financial incentives that were offered conditional on using a personalized contextual cue for a daily walking habit. The data and user feedback collected during this study will also be used to optimize the design and content of the iPhone app, which will be tested in future, larger scale experimental research.
Primary dysmenorrhea is a common problem in women. Women use many treatment methods to deal with primary dysmenorrhea. Therefore, this study aims to find the most effective treatment by determining the effectiveness of conservative and non-conservative treatment in women with primary dysmenorrhea. Another aim of the study is to generalize the use of conservative treatment methods in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea.On the other hand, it aims to spread the telerehabilitation method, which allows the global Covid 19 outbreak to be maintained remotely online, in the world and in our country.
Lumbopelvic pain represents one of the leading causes of disability and pain in the world population. It is estimated that 84% of the world's population will suffer from lumbar pelvic pain in their lifetime. This high prevalence causes it to be classified as a public health problem. Traditional primary care measures have failed to reduce the prevalence, recurrences and costs of this pathology. In the search for treatments focused on reducing public spending, the concept of tele-rehabilitation appears. It is a tool, via telematics, that provides knowledge on rehabilitation and education in neurobiology of pain, demonstrated in cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. It has been suggested that the use of this instrument could help improve the patient's quality of life at the biopsychosocial level.
The aim of the current study, therefore, is to investigate the effects of vitamin K2 supplementation on the physiological responses to an acute bout of resistance exercise.
