Filter by:Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that can impair health. Obesity is considered a risk factor for diseases such as hypertension, heart failure, coronary heart diseases, diabetes mellitus, sleep apnea, and osteoarthritis. The prevalence of obesity is increasing all over the world. Therefore, it is very important to decide on the most appropriate treatment therapy method for the treatment of obesity. Bariatric surgery has become an accepted method in the treatment of obesity in recent years. It is the most effective and efficient treatment method in the long term for individuals with severe obesity. Exercise therapy is recommended by literature to maintain weight loss, prevent weight regain and minimize complications after bariatric surgery. However, there is no consensus on the appropriate exercise program. There is heterogeneity in the type, intensity and duration of exercise. In addition, the effect of clinical pilates exercises in the post-bariatric period has not been examined. Moreover, there is no study conducted in the post-bariatric period with telerehabilitation, which has been very popular in recent years. This study aims to reveal the effect of clinical pilates exercises on the functionality and physical fitness of post-bariatric patients. The results of our study will also contribute to the literature by revealing the effect of telerehabilitation on these patients.
Cross-sectional, correlational cohort study where the variables Aerobic endurance (6-minute walk test), Muscle endurance (Medical research council MRC), Flexibility (Sit-and-reach test), Functionality (WHODAS 2.0), Number of days were analyzed hospitalized in the ICU, in post Covid-19 patients after one month of being discharged from the Intensive Care Unit. Users who met the criteria to be part of the research. For the analysis of variables and statistical significance of the results, the SPSS Statistics 22.0 program was used
Background:The aim of our study is to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the "Barriers & Facilitators to Youth Physical Activity Questionnaire" in young individuals after cultural adaptation. The results of this study may shed light on youth PA participation studies, enable a clear explanation of the barriers and facilitators of physical activity in community-based research, and develop goal-oriented strategies for PA participation. Material&Method: The research will be carried out at İstinye University and young individuals between the ages of 18-24, who accepted to participate in the study as a result of the invitation and whose family consent was obtained, will participate in the research. The socio-demographic characteristics, age, gender, body weight, height and Body Mass Index (BMI) of the participants will be evaluated and recorded with a specially prepared evaluation form. All participants in the study will complete the Turkish version of the BFYPA,The Exercise Benefits/Barriers Scale (EBBS), Motivation for Participation in Physical Activity Scale (MPPAS), and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) at their first visit. Translation and cultural adaptation process of the original BFYPA Beaton et al. (2000) with reference to the guideline .
For older persons, successful aging generally involves staying active and maintaining social interactions. Active aging involves more engagement in enjoyable activities. The hypothesis of this study was to determine the effects of multi-purpose activities on the quality of life of elderly individuals living either in a nursing home or in their own homes. Sixty-seven volunteers aged >60 were surveyed: 34 living in a nursing home and 33 living at-home. Participants performed activities consisting of physical, cognitive tasks, and handicrafts twice weekly for 12 weeks. Each participant completed the 36-item Short Form Health Survey both before and after the program, and the results were compared between the groups.
This study aims to determine the effect of delivering a physical activity e-learning course to early childhood educators on young children's physical activity and sedentary behaviour while at childcare. It is hypothesized that levels of physical activity will increase and levels of sedentary behaviours will decrease during time spent in childcare in a sample of children who attend early childcare centres where early childhood educators have completed the physical activity e-learning course compared to children in centres where early childhood educators are randomized to not receive the intervention. Differences in changes in several secondary outcomes including fundamental movement skills, parent's perceptions of children's fundamental movement skills, children's cognitive development, emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, peer relationship problems and prosocial behaviours will also be examined.
This controlled quasi experimental intervention study follows the MRC framework for complex interventions (Bleijenberg et al. 2018) aiming to promote educators' individual aspect of occupational well-being. The purpose of this study is: 1) to evaluate the effectiveness of 8-workweek SHINE (= Self-Help INtervention for Educators) on educator's individual aspect of occupational well-being comparing intervention and control groups and 2) to describe the possible associating factors for the effectiveness of the intervention (if any) and 3) to evaluate SHINE's acceptability (utility and usability) within intervention group.
The aim of this study is to determine the relationships between physical activity level, quality of life and cognitive level in patients with breast cancer and to compare the results with a population of similar age group.
Pilot study to test the acceptability and feasibility of an intervention aimed to test the effectiveness, in preschool children, of an integrated physical activity intervention in the classroom based on intervallic training (MOVI-HIIT) on improving executive function, body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness.
Persons with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) have very low physical activity, and among ESKD patients, the level of inactivity is strongly associated with morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a 12-week intervention coupling use of wearable pedometers (FitBit ®) and feedback coaching to increase physical activity in hemodialysis patients.
The present study is the last part of a larger project investigating the health, quality of life and function of men having received radical treatment for prostate cancer in 2014-2018. In this study, physical function and level of physical activity will be tested and registered in a selection of older men who participated in the foregoing parts of the project. Comparisons will be made to similar data from a population-based cohort, matched on age and education.
