Filter by:The objective of this study is to measure sympathetic nervous system function and stress responses in patients with clinically documented and self-reported chronic fatigue that is worsened by stress, compared to healthy controls. Baseline norepinephrine (NE) levels and stress-induced NE levels in patients who fulfill criteria for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and who self-identify with stress induced worsening fatigue, will be compared to data from normal individuals pre and post-stress.
The goal of this research is to compare the effects on psychological distress between T4 mono replacement group and T4/T3 combination replacement group after total thyroidectomy in thyroid cancer patients. 1. Subjects: - Psychologically distressed patients, such as depression, anxiety, and fatigue patient after total thyroidectomy with thyroid cancer are considered for participation. Screening of distress after total thyroidectomy is used HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) ≥ 8 for depression or anxiety, and MDASI-F (MD Anderson Symptom Inventory -Fatigue) ≥ 4 for fatigue. 2. Randomization: - Using the table of random sampling numbers, patients assign to T4 mono replacement group or T4/T3 combination replacement group. 3. Evaluation for distress: - Assessment will be made baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks to investigate change of psychological distress (depression, anxiety, and fatigue). Level of distress after thyroidectomy will determine using Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) for depression or anxiety, and Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) for fatigue.
This is a cross-over design study in which subjects arrived to the lab and were assigned a supplement to ingest. Prior to ingestion subjects completed baseline reaction time testing along with a questionnaire. Thirty minutes after ingestion subjects filled out the same questionnaire, completed a reaction time test, followed by a series of dynamic exercises. After the last exercise was finished subjects filled out the questionnaire, completed another reaction time test and repeated the series of dynamic exercises. Following the exercises, subjects filled out the questionnaire and completed a fourth round of reaction time testing. In total subjects would complete 2 rounds of dynamic exercises and 4 rounds of reaction time testing with heart rate being recorded before and after the dynamic exercise rounds. Subjects were told to wash-out for 7 days and return to the lab to complete the same testing but on the alternative supplement.
Nurses are exposed to myriad stressors, both in the workplace and in their everyday lives, which can lead to adverse personal and professional outcomes. While workplace stress cannot be eliminated, nurses can learn techniques to build resilience, mitigate stress, and decrease fatigue. Organizational employee health, wellness, and assistance programs are all intentioned to provide this type of support; however, nurses often lack awareness of options and opportunities, and access can be a challenge. The purpose of the proposed study is to assess the outcomes of a multi-modal intervention and toolkit, ARISE, designed to enhance resilience and promote awareness of organizational resources for health, wellness, and employee assistance. We will evaluate the impact of participation in ARISE on resilience and other outcomes in nurses in critical care and trauma settings. As a Best Practice Spotlight Organization designated by the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO), this project will incorporate relevant recommendations from Best Practice Guidelines (BPG) related to Workplace Health, Safety, and Well-being of the Nurse; and Preventing and Mitigating Nurse Fatigue in Health Care.
supplementation with L-carnitine that is available both as an FDA-approved therapy for primary carnitine deficiency, as well as widely available as an over-the-counter ergogenic aid will improve wellbeing and function measured by questionnaires in patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). based on our review of literature that addition of health coaching (HC) to L-carnitine will yield greater gains.
Investigation of the acute and chronic effects of Supradyn® Energy 3RDA on subjective ratings of 'fatigue/stress', substrate metabolism and blood biomarkers of recovery, as a consequence of exercise and metabolically demanding cognitive tasks.
This is an observational, prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicenter, real-life study designed to observe the impact of paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir with dasabuvir regimen (Viekirax®/Exviera®, 3D regimen) on total daytime physical activity and fatigue in participants with HCV GT1.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of oral melatonin plus zinc supplementation in relieving self-reported fatigue in CFS/ME
The purpose of the study is to determine the impact of a physical activity intervention on the self-management of fatigue in young adults receiving chemotherapy. Half of the participants will receive an intervention which includes education and resources to set physical activity goals and monitor progress toward goals.
