Filter by:Melatonin is a hormone that promotes sleep that is available without a prescription in the United States. In addition to oral supplements, melatonin can be purchased in the form of lotions and bubble baths with unknown dosage and no frequency or age recommendations. In this study, researchers will examine how quickly melatonin in lotion and bubble bath is absorbed compared to oral tablets, as well as how long the melatonin lasts in the body.
A home placement, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, study to determine the effect of dietary liquid shot beverage products on self-reported measures of sleep, stress and mood on generally healthy participants with current self-reported mild/moderate sleep difficulties (but not clinical insomnia) and mild/moderate stress.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a morning exercise intervention on sleep (quality and duration), mood (positive affect, anxiety, depression, anger), stress and productivity among undergraduate students (18-23 years) evening-exercisers with poor self-reported sleep quality. Aim 1. Compared to the control condition, evening-exercisers prescribed morning exercise will exhibit improved sleep quality (increased efficiency, decreased fragmentation) and increased sleep duration. Aim 2. Compared to the control condition, evening-exercisers prescribed morning exercise will exhibit improved mood (increased positive affect, decreased depression, anxiety and anger). Aim 3. Compared to the control condition, evening-exercisers prescribed morning exercise will exhibit decreased stress and increased productivity.
The study will investigate the effects of pregnancy yoga on perceived stress, quality of sexual life and sleep level. A total of 100 pregnant women are planned to be included in the study. Data will be collected with the "Personal Information Form", "Perceived Stress Scale" and "Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female". Yoga will be applied to the experimental group for a total of 12 sessions, two sessions per week (90 minutes) for six weeks. The research predicts that yoga will reduce the stress perceived by pregnant women, increase the quality of sexual life and positively affect sleep patterns.
Many cancer patients suffer from pain, sleep, and mood problems and are using cannabis to relieve these symptoms. Cannabis may provide such relief but may also produce negative side effects including cognitive impairment, an especially problematic issue for cancer patients, indicating more research on cannabis use in the cancer context is required. In this endeavor, the present study seeks to compare the use of hemp-derived CBD (Cannabidiol) with and without THC (Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) versus placebo on measures of sleep, pain, mood, subjective and objective cognitive functioning, and quality of life within 185 cancer patients.
Investigators developed a brief, scalable, behavioral Sleep Promotion Program (SPP) for adolescents with short sleep duration and sleep-wake irregularity, which relies on two individual sessions and smart phone technology to deliver evidence-based strategies. This R34 will test the feasibility and initial effectiveness of the SPP program and provider training via pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT, n=50) comparing SPP to Sleep Psychoeducation, a brief session on healthy sleep habits. Participants will be adolescents (12-18 years) with short sleep duration, sleep-wake irregularity, and depression.
Investigators developed a brief, scalable, behavioral Sleep Promotion Program (SPP) for adolescents with short sleep duration and sleep-wake irregularity, which relies on one individual session and smart phone technology to deliver evidence-based strategies. This open trial portion of the R34 will focus on conducting an open trial (n=8) to iteratively refine provider training, implementation procedures, and SPP program, per participant and staff feedback.
This study aims to evaluate the viability of wearable and portable technologies for sleep staging in children and adolescents. The results will be compared with polysomnography, in order to achieve clinical and diagnostic validation. Three domains of devices will be used: movement sensors, wearable EEG band and pulse oximetry. The project will include individuals between the ages of 3 and 18 who reside in São Paulo city and undergo a polysomnography test at the Sleep Laboratory of the Children's Institute of the Hospital das Clínicas of the University of São Paulo, achieving a minimum of 85% sleep efficiency on the night of the test.
This is a pilot, two-arm, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled cross-over clinical trial to study the safety and effect of 14 days of kava on anxiety and physiologic stress in survivors of cancer and its treatment. Participants will be randomized to take either kava first or placebo first. Kava 75 mg or placebo will be taken three time daily (TID) for 14 days (Period 1), followed by a washout period of 14-28 days. Thereafter, the participant will take either placebo or kava TID for 14 days (Period 2), whichever he/she did not take in Period 1.
The proposed project aims to disentangle the impact of evening light exposure emitted from tablet devices from the impact of arousing media content on children's sleep regulation, circadian physiology and next-day emotion regulation and executive functioning.
