Filter by:The aim of the study is to test the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of a bicycle exercise followed by an intensive lifestyle intervention for 3 months in patients with recent onset and medically untreated type 2 diabetes.
Recruitment of obese children, classification according to sleep questionnaire and randomization in two groups to perform nutritional and sleep intervention. . One group receives dietary intervention through recommendations. A group receives dietary and sleep intervention through recommendations. An analysis of the melatonin profile and metabolic and inflammatory status is performed by biochemistry at the beginning and end of the intervention. Determine if the intervention has improved the health of obese children.
Introduction: Sarcomas are rare tumors of connective tissue. The exact overall incidence of sarcomas is unknown due to diagnostic difficulties and the various histological subtypes (over 80 subtypes). However, the apparent increasing incidence of sarcomas suggests environmental causes such as pesticides. Except for some specific factors (i.e. ionizing radiation, vinyl chloride, dioxin, and genetic predispositions) the scientific knowledge on the aetiology of sarcomas is sparse and inconsistent. France is a particularly appropriate country to set up a study investigating the causes of sarcoma occurrence due to the French organization in treatment and care of sarcoma patients, which is highly structured and revolved around national expert networks. The main objective of the ETIOSARC project is to study the role of lifestyle, environmental and occupational factors in the occurrence of sarcomas among adults from a multicentric population-based case-control study. Methods and analysis: Cases will be all incident cases (older than 18 years old) identified in 15 districts of France covered by a cancer registry and/or a reference center in sarcoma's patient care over a three-year period with an inclusion start date ranging from the 1st October 2018 to the 1st January 2020 and histologically confirmed by a second review of the diagnosis. Two controls will be individually-matched by sex, age (5-years group), and districts of residence and randomly selected from electoral list. A standardized questionnaire will be administered by a trained interviewer in order to gather information about occupational and residential history, demographic and socioeconomic characteristics and lifestyle factors. At the end of the interview, a saliva sample will be systematically proposed. This study will permit to validate or not already suspected risk factors for sarcomas such as phenoxyherbicides, chlorophenol and to generate new hypothesis to increase our understanding about the genetic and environmental contributions in the carcinogenicity process.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the usability of the system and its accordance with the users' needs. This evaluation will consider the effectiveness and the efficiency of the system, as well as stroke survivors' satisfaction. The effectiveness and the efficiency of the system will be measured by: - The relationship between the control of stroke survivors' daily activities and their risk of having a secondary stroke, - The decrease of the need for caregivers, - And consequently an improvement in stroke survivors' self-management.
The aim of the Stop Diabetes - Knowledge based solutions (StopDia) consortium project (University of Eastern Finland, National Institute for Health and Welfare, and Technical Research Centre of Finland) is to develop and test approaches to identify individuals at increased risk of type 2 diabetes and to empower them in adopting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle by combining individual and environment level strategies into a dual-process approach targeting deliberative and automatic processes of behavior. We also aim to identify barriers and facilitators of adopting a healthy lifestyle in the society, create a model for the prevention of type 2 diabetes by joint actions of health care, third sector, and other societal actors, and develop methods to monitor the cost-effectiveness of these actions. We will carry out a 1-year randomized controlled trial on the effects of among 10 000 individuals aged 18-70 years at increased risk of type 2 diabetes living in Finland. The participants will be randomized into the control group, the digital lifestyle intervention group, or the combined digital and face-to-face lifestyle intervention group. The aim of the interventions is to enhance diet quality, increase physical activity, decrease body weight, and improve glucose tolerance in individuals at increased risk of type 2 diabetes.
