Filter by:The purpose for this protocol is to perform an open-label human clinical pilot study on the effects of consumption of two nutraceutical blends in subjects with long-term unexplained fatigue interfering with daily living.
Iron deficiency is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency worldwide with one in four estimated to be affected by iron deficiency anaemia. Women of reproductive age are at greatest risk for iron deficiency and anaemia due to iron losses during menstruation and childbirth as well as the increased need for iron throughout pregnancy. However, iron deficiency without anaemia is at least twice as common as iron deficiency anaemia with females aged 11-49 at the biggest risk of all. Despite this, it is commonly left undiagnosed. Those who are iron deficient non-anaemic can still suffer from the same common consequences of iron deficiency anaemia; these include unexplained fatigue, mood changes and decreased cognitive performance. Previous studies have found a significant relationship between iron status and cognitive performance in anaemic women. However, studies assessing cognition, mood and fatigue in women of varying iron status including those who are iron deficient nonanaemic are lacking. The most recent observational study of this kind found that better iron status was associated with better sustained attention but worse working memory. However, iron deficient anaemic females were not included in this observation. This study will extend upon this in order to determine any differences between non-anaemic iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia. The aims of this study are to improve knowledge concerning women's health and to determine whether there is a relationship between iron status, cognitive performance, subjective mood and fatigue in women of reproductive age (18-49 years).
Fatigue is an important and prevalent problem in older adults. The ratio of fatigue may rise in older adults who live in nursing homes/rest homes. In the literature, a few studies investigated the prevalence of fatigue, and there is no study explaining the associated factors. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of fatigue in rest home residents and to determine the associated variables with fatigue.
Considering the known challenges facing newly graduated nurses, there are possibilities to implement preventive actions. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of a preventive intervention among newly graduated nurses, supporting proactive strategies for sleep and recuperation in relation to work related stress and shift work.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the signature injury of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Up to 73% of TBI patients endorse fatigue as their most challenging symptom. Fatigue leads to decreased participation in everyday life and return to work. The Maximizing Energy (MAX) intervention trains individuals with TBI to manage their fatigue. The intervention individualizes the Occupational Therapist delivered Energy Conservation Strategies education by using the framework of Problem Solving Therapy. The purpose of this single-blind randomized clinical trial was to test the effect of the Maximizing Energy (MAX) intervention for decreasing the impact and severity of post-TBI fatigue, increasing participation in everyday life and physical activity, and decreasing work disability.
The relationship between fatigue and balance was established. Fatigue was correlated with 8 parameters of balance scales. Moreover, there was a strong correlation between the level of fatigue from one side and depression, quality of life and disease severity from the other side.Fatigue seems to be the main problem in patients with MS which may influence other signs and symptoms such as balance.
The Strong People Strength Training study aims to assess whether a community-based progressive strength training program can improve risk factors for diabetes and heart disease in older rural adults.
The investigators will assess the feasibility of activity monitoring armbands for continuous measurement of physical activity level in ME/CFS patients, during 6 months follow-up. The main purpose is to assess if continuous measurement of activity level may be incorporated in outcome measures in future clinical interventional trials.
Fatigue is a common symptom and a leading concern in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and often persists despite clinical and endoscopic remission. This study evaluates the metabolomic profile of fatigued patients with IBD.
Background: Chronic fatigue (CF) is a prominent symptom in many sarcoidosis patients, affecting quality of life (QoL) and interfering with treatment. This study investigates neuropsychobiological mechanisms and markers of CF in sarcoidosis.
