Filter by:Physical inactivity and sedentary time are highly prevalent worldwide and are associated with many adverse health outcomes. Workers adults spend two-thirds of their workday sitting, so they are particularly at risk. Exercise is considered a preventive and treatment tool for diseases, however, the effects of Concurrent Training (that is, aerobic plus resistance training) are not well established in healthy adults. This research project aims to analyze the effects of a concurrent training program on metabolic profile, lung function, stress and quality of life, as well as body composition and physical fitness in sedentary adults. This is a single-blinded two-arm RCT with parallel groups. After completion of baseline assessments, eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to participate in concurrent training group or control group. Repeat assessments will be taken immediately post 8 weeks and post 16 weeks of intervention.
A comparison of changes between symptoms of incontinence and pediatric quality of life will be used to draw conclusions about whether differences in quality of life are noted with changes in symptoms of incontinence.
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is associated with recurrent intractable abdominal pain, pancreatic exocrine insufficiency and endocrine dysfunction. Very few studies had evaluated the quality of life in CP, and even a fewer have assessed the mental status in these patients. In the current study, we proposed to evaluate the the relationship between pain, quality of life and depression status in two large independent cohorts of patients with CP. We also proposed to evaluate the brain metabolites in the right and left anterior cingulate cortex, basal ganglia, hippocampus and prefrontal cortex using magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We further proposed to evaluate the pasta metabolites and look for associations with the mental state. Finally, we proposed to evaluate how CP related education of the patients could impact on their mental status and response to interventions on pain.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a psychosocial eHealth intervention designed to improve hormone therapy adherence among Hispanic/Latinx women with breast cancer. Our proposed secondary outcomes are health-related quality of life and self-efficacy in managing hormone therapy side effects. The intervention components include breast cancer knowledge, hormone/endocrine therapy knowledge, stress awareness and management, social support, and enhanced communication and intimacy skills. The intervention will be delivered via a Smartphone application over a 12-week period. All participants will receive the intervention application (described below). Aside from using the Smartphone application for the recommended 12 weeks, participation in this study includes three assessments: baseline (at the beginning of the research study), 6-week follow-up, and 12-week follow-up.
This randomized controlled study aimed to determine the effect of education on disease management on the quality of life, and anxiety and depression levels of women with Rheumatoid Arthritis. The hypotheses of the current study are as below: H0: Education on disease management in women with Rheumatoid Arthritis does not affect the quality of life and anxiety and depression levels. H1: Education on disease management in women with Rheumatoid Arthritis affects the quality of life and anxiety and depression levels. Patients and Methods: The study was conducted with 66 women with Rheumatoid Arthritis (32 intervention, 34 control groups) at the rheumatology clinic and polyclinic of a university hospital between February and October 2019, in the city of Edirne, Turkey. Data were collected with "Patient Information Form", "Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality of Life Scale", "Health Assessment Questionnaire" and "Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale".
The purpose of this study is to translate and culturally adapt the quality of life profile for spinal deformities (QLPSD) to Turkish language and test the validity and reliability of Turkish version of QLPSD in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
In this randomized controlled study, it was aimed to determine the effect of acupressure on menopausal symptoms and quality of life and the relationship between menopausal symptoms and quality of life. Three different hypothesis teams have been established for the study. These; H0: There is no significant difference between the menopause rating scores of the women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and the control group without acupressure. H1: There is a significant difference between the menopause rating scores of the women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and the control group without acupressure. H0: There is no significant difference between the quality of life scores of the women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and the control group without acupressure. H1: There is a significant difference between the quality of life scores of the women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and the control group without acupressure. H0: There is no relationship between menopause rating scores and quality of life scores of women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and in the control group without acupressure. H1: There is a relationship between menopause rating scores and quality of life scores of women in the study group in which acupressure was applied and in the control group without acupressure.
Royal Hospital Chelsea (RHC) has provided a sheltered housing environment alongside integrated health and social care and comradeship for British Army veterans since 1692, following a decree by King Charles II to aid the "relief of veterans broken by age and war" (RHC, 2018). Today approximately 300 In-Pensioners, known globally as 'Chelsea Pensioners' live at RHC. They also have access to an on-site infirmary providing nursing or personal care for up to 68 people (CQC, 2019). RHC is in central London (UK) and comprises of several historical buildings, protected by the organisations Mission Statement to "…safeguard their historic home for the veterans of tomorrow". In-Pensioner's must have served in the British Army as a non-commissioned officer (or have served at least 12 years 'in the ranks' prior to becoming a commissioned officer), be aged 65 or over, be free of any financial obligations to dependents, and at the time of admission be able to live independently. Traditionally a male-only residence, RHC welcomed its first female Army veteran in 2009. There is an absence of evidence to support the impact of care delivery and the Chelsea Pensioner experience, with the only evidence being RHC Annual and Care Quality Commission (CQC) reports which focus on strategic and operational matters rather than the impact of the wider social care or environment. This lack of evidence presents a unique opportunity to evaluate RHC's current service provision, inform future direction and address the hiatus in evidence-based research to quantify the impact of its model of care.
The study is a community interventional study by using an integrated back pain module (IBPM). The purpose of this study is to find out if the module training has any benefit on Low Back pain among ambulance drivers. The effectiveness of the module is determined by baseline quality of life results compared with after the intervention program completed.
This study's aim was to determine the effect of music therapy on symptoms and functions in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
