Filter by:Exercise in all Chemotherapy (EnACT) is a study to assess safety, feasibility, and acceptability of an exercise program within chemotherapy. This will be a single group study to capture the effects of an exercise intervention on the average chemotherapy patient and the patients compliance to the study.
Many kinds of wearable technology have become available, but the superiority of those devices in weight loss compared to the standard care without them is uncertain. The possible problems are long-term self-motivation, utility and validity of the device, and outcome measures in clinical trials. The connected health care with motivational interviewing as an intervention, and body composition parameters in addition to body weight as outcome measures are employed in the project. The expected outcome is that connected health care, which is more individualized approach by heath care professionals, is more effective compared to self-monitoring using wearable devices. Two types of wearable device are going to be used to monitor 1) body activity and 2) heart rate variables during exercise which reflect fitness level in this study in order to investigate appropriate monitoring parameters to predict outcome measures. The hypothesis is that addition of connected health system will result in improvement of body composition and fitness level compared to self-monitoring.
The goal of this study is to assess the impact of physician-driven insulin setting changes in type 1 patients using multiple daily injection insulin therapy with exercise. This is a short outpatient study with multiple outpatient and home exercise sessions with an assigned type of exercise.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of wearing both neoprene suit and life jacket on respiratory capacities at rest and cardiopulmonary capacities during exercise in windsurfers.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the therapeutic exercise effects in patients with chronic kidney disease. An randomized clinical trial is carried out. A total sample of 70 patients with chronic kidney disease is recruited and divided into a therapeutic exercise group and a control group. The kidney function (creatinine clearance as main outcome) is measured at baseline and 1 month after treatment start.
Regular aerobic exercise is associated with reduced risk of multiple cancers, yet the majority of adults are inactive. Across health behavior theories, the expectations people have about the outcomes of exercise influence their decision to exercise. Extending prior work, a fine-grained analysis of the relationship between perceived outcomes and daily exercise behavior will be achieved using ecological momentary assessment methods to measure perceived outcomes, and accelerometry to measure exercise objectively. The results of this research will inform exercise promotion efforts by determining how perceptions and temporal factors interact to predict exercise behavior.
Among the well-known factors that contribute to the development of obesity, childbearing has been reported as an important influential factor. Physical activity is strongly recommended as one of the main tools to reduce any excessive weight gain during pregnancy and also to reduce weight retention in the postpartum period. During the postpartum period, exercise training coupled with a well-balanced nutritional plan, offers an effective intervention to help mothers lose weight safely. International guidelines for physical activity after pregnancy include strengthening routines. Worth noting, most of the above cited studies focused on the benefits of aerobic activities. Strength training interventions are virtually unexplored in postpartum women despite its potential benefits. Compared to the pregnancy period, postpartum barriers to physical activity seem to focus less on health-related barriers. In postpartum, time limitations for childcare become a more common barrier. For this reason, a postpartum exercise program that incorporates the babies in a specific exercise session has a better chance to succeed. The aim of this project is to determine the benefits of strength training in a group class setting in postpartum healthy women with their babies. Whereas mother's participation in regular physical activity may encourage regular physical activity habits in her offspring, a second aim of this project is to also quantify the infant's physical activity. The main measured outcomes are: maternal muscular strength; body composition; aerobic capacity; exercise self efficacy; depressive symptoms; physical activity level and food habits and baby's physical activity level.
Mind-body exercise improves symptom of negative moods, dyspnea and quality of life in chronic diseases, but these improvements for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are unproven. This study aims to examine the effects of dyspnea, exercise capacity, heart rate variability(HRV), anxiety, depression, interoceptive awareness, quality of life(QoL) in patients with COPD across a three-month mind-body exercise program.
Objectives: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of exercise and life modification on pain and disability in "text neck". Methods: Eighty-five participants were randomly divided into three groups: Exercise (n=29), Exercise+Life modification (n=28), and Control Group (n = 28). Pain intensity during rest, activity, and at night was evaluated with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and functional assessment was done by using Neck Disability Index at the beginning and at the end of 4 weeks.
The main objective is to test the non-inferiority of supervised exercise versus antidepressant treatment in reducing depressive symptoms in patients with clinical criteria for depression (according to ICD 10) over a period of 6 months follow-up.
