Filter by:This phase II/III trial examines how a sleep enhancement intervention, including the use of wearable digital vital sign monitoring device (ViSi), affects the quality of life of cancer patients receiving acute care. Sleep enchancement interventions may improve the quality of life of patients with cancer due to fewer interruptions at night during hospital stays.
Very controlled dietary intervention studies support that individual polyphenol rich foods and isolated polyphenols can increase endothelial function and HDL cholesterol and decrease blood pressure, arterial stiffness, and LDL cholesterol even in healthy subjects. The intake of (-)-epicatechin, the major polyphenol in cocoa, was previously mechanistically linked with acute improvements in endothelial function and nitric oxide availability. A profound understanding of inter- and intra-individual variability of responses in real life are an important area of research in a world that aims at personalized nutrition and medicine. N-of-1 trials are a powerful tool allowing to study small effects even in fewer subjects and help account for intra-individual variations in responses. The overall aim of the present pilot study is to evaluate intra-and inter-individual variability of responses to cocoa flavanols in everyday life using the N-of-1 paradigm. In this pilot study, young healthy humans will monitor blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, heart rate, diet, and physical activity on 8 days using a personal and wearable devices. Each subject will undergo the 8 study days; 4 days with cocoa flavanol capsules (CF; containing 750 mg (1500 mg per day)) and 4 days with calorically matched placebo capsules (P; 0 mg cocoa flavanols) taken at the same time in the morning with breakfast and at night before going to bed. The subjects will be randomized to different treatment allocation sequences to allow blinding of volunteers and investigator; either CF-P-CF-P-CF-P-CF-P or P-CF-P-CF-P-CF-P-CF.
This research will be carried out experimentally in order to investigate the Effect of Sleep Band and White Noise Use on the Time to Sleep in Pediatric Intensive Care Patients aged 3-12 months. The research will be carried out in Adana Province Seyhan State Hospital Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. The data obtained by creating experimental and control groups will be calculated. "Baby Information Form, Baby Sleep Problems Diagnosis Form, Baby Sleep Observation Form and Vital Findings Follow-up Chart" will be used to collect research data. In the study, sleep bands and white noise will be used for sleep for the babies in the experimental group, while the control group will not be interfered with. Ethics committee, institutional permission and informed consent from the parents of the infants will be obtained for the conduct of the study. SPSS demo package program will be used in data analysis. Examining the Effect Effect of Sleep Band and White Noise Use on Transition Time to Sleep in Pediatric Intensive Care Patients aged 3-12 months , sleep ecology , sleep diagnostics Patients aged 3-12 months At the end of the research, it will be examined whether there is a difference between the sleep time, waking frequency and total sleep time of the babies in the experimental group using the sleep band and white noise, and the babies in the control group.
The purpose of this study was to compare the impact of 700 mg daily ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) in healthy college students on sleep, stress and food cravings to healthy college students taking placebo.
Surveys indicate that 85% of the adult population consume caffeine on a daily basis. Caffeine acts on sleep homeostatic mechanisms by antagonizing the sleep factor adenosine. Whether and how caffeine also impacts on the circadian regulation of sleep and -wakefulness is fairly unexplored. This study quantifies the influence of regular caffeine intake and its cessation on circadian promotion of sleep and wakefulness, on circadian hormonal markers, well-being, neurobehavioral performance and associated cerebral mechanisms. The knowledge is expected to contribute important insights on recent societal changes in sleep-wake behavior (e.g., shorter sleep duration and delayed sleep phase) and the related increase in people suffering from sleep problems.
The purpose of Project MiCRIM is to test the feasibility and effectiveness of an online 4-week mindfulness-based intervention that incorporates informational elements about sleep, mindfulness, thoughts, emotions, and acceptance using a control sample of Criminology and Criminal Justice majors as a proxy for Corrections officers.
The aim of this clinical study to evaluate the effect of temporomandibular joint dysfunction accompanying patients with chronic migraine on pain, quality of life, sleep and functionality.
This research study is being done to better understand the effects of kava supplementation on sleep quality and salivary cortisol in the context of the acute physical and psychological stress of military special forces preparation training. Kava is a botanical dietary supplement derived from the plant Piper methysticum. Cortisol is a hormone associated with stress.
The study aim to test the effect of a meal complement to be taken in combination with an evening meal with a glycemic load of 55, to improve sleep quality.
The purpose of the Health and Energy through Active Living Every Day (HEALED) intervention, is to examine the effect of a web-based intervention on changes in device-measured physical activity (light and moderate-to-vigorous intensity aerobic) and sedentary behavior. The purpose of this study is intended for survivors of a cancer with a 5-year survival (at Stage I, II, and III) of at least 45% that has a strong level of evidence for association with physical inactivity according to the 2018 PA Guidelines Advisory Committee Report (breast, colon, endometrium, kidney, bladder, multiple myeloma). In line with social cognitive theory behavior change techniques, participants will be provided information and skills necessary to be more physically active and less sedentary after a cancer diagnosis. New materials will be disseminated biweekly through a website open only to participants, and include at-home exercise demonstration videos, research news, discussion boards, success stories, infographics for exercise recommendations, etc.
