The purpose of the study is to determine whether a daily prebiotic fibre blend can reduce systemic inflammation, dyslipidemia, and self-report measures of mental health in individuals with metabolic syndrome. This study will help shape a larger randomised controlled study (RCT) powered to assess efficacy in a bigger cohort of patients. Primary outcome measures will explore the efficacy of a prebiotic fibre blend on systemic inflammation. Secondary and exploratory outcomes measures will explore the efficacy of the prebiotic blend on clinical biomarkers associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, microbiota features, and mental health. Using these data, we will also estimate in-year savings for the NHS in the metabolic syndrome population on a per participant basis.
The study will examine the effects of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program and yoga on stress level, quality of life and glycemic control in Youth with Type 1 diabetes.
In this single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial 290 patients with stress or burnout will be investigated regarding the effectiveness of a digital therapeutic for improvement of stress level, the unguided online intervention reviga. Inclusion criteria are: age 18 or older, above average stress level (PSS score >21), living in Germany, working a minimum of 20h per week, having a stable treatment for at least 30 days at the time of inclusion, and consent to participation. Exclusion criterion is having plans to change the treatment in the upcoming three months at the time of inclusion. Patients will be randomized and allocated to either an intervention group, receiving reviga in addition to treatment as usual (TAU), or a control group, receiving only TAU. The control group will be granted access to the program at the end of the study. Primary endpoint will be the perceived stress measured by the PSS score, with three months post-allocation being the primary time point for assessment of effectiveness. Six months post allocation will be used as a timepoint for follow-up assessment of endpoints. Secondary endpoints will be anxiety symptoms, level of functioning, burnout symptoms, health-related quality of life, and sick days.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effects of a walking intervention (3 walks per week for a period of 4 weeks) in a nature vs. urban setting on the wellbeing of young adult postsecondary students. We will examine changes in positive and negative affect for participants assigned to the nature condition vs those assigned to the urban condition (primary outcome). We will also examine changes in reported depression and anxiety symptoms, perceived stress levels, sleep quality, mindfulness and wellbeing (secondary outcome).
This research was planned to examine the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction program applied to parents with autistic children on the level of depression, anxiety, stress and hopelessness.
The transition to college is a period of elevated risk for a range of mental health conditions. For students with pre-existing mental health diagnoses, the added pressures can exacerbate challenges. Although colleges and universities strive to provide mental health support to their students, the high demand for these services makes it difficult to provide scalable cost-effective solutions. To address these issues, the present study aims to compare the efficacy of three different treatments using a large cohort of 600 students transitioning to college. Interventions were selected based on their potential for generalizability and cost-effectiveness on college campuses. The randomized controlled trial will assign 150 participants to one of four arms: 1) group-based therapy, 2) physical activity program, 3) nature experiences group, or 4) self-monitoring condition as the control group. In addition, biometric data will be collected from all participants using a wearable device to develop algorithmic predictions of mental and physical health functioning. Once recruitment is complete, modeling strategies will be used to evaluate the outcomes and effectiveness of each intervention. The findings of this study will provide evidence as to the benefits of implementing scalable and proactive interventions using technology with the goal of improving well-being and success of new college students.
A randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study assessing the impact of health and wellness products on feeling of anxiety, stress, and other health outcomes
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of AlphaWave® L-Theanine on stress among adults who experience moderate stress on a regular basis. The difference in change in stress as assessed by salivary cortisol from baseline at Days 14 and 28 will be compared between AlphaWave® L-Theanine and Placebo groups. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of AlphaWave® L-Theanine, as compared to placebo, will be measured by the occurrence of an/or changes in pre-emergent and post-emergent adverse events (AEs).
This study is a multi-centre, multi-national, prospective, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study. The study lasts 12 weeks which includes 2 on-site visits and 2 remote visits. Primary objective is to compare the efficacy of KSM-66 Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) versus placebo in adults experiencing high stress and/or anxiety. Secondary objectives to compare the safety of KSM-66 Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) versus placebo in adults experiencing high stress and/or anxiety.
