Filter by:The goals of this observational study are to evaluate (1) the feasibility, usability, and satisfaction with the Cubii elliptical and (2) the preliminary efficacy of the Cubii elliptical for increasing activity (primary outcome), physical function, and quality of life, and decreasing physical and psychological symptom (e.g., pain, fatigue, depression) severity in people with MS. The main question it aims to answer is how usable and feasible is the Cubii as a mode of exercise for people with MS? Participants will use the Cubii as they choose and keep a written log of this use. They will answer questions about their demographics, MS disease-related variables (e.g., pain, fatigue, falls), activity, exercise, quality of life, and biopsychosocial symptom variables) and provide additional data regarding the feasibility, usability, and satisfaction with use of the Cubii.
The goal of this study is to design, adapt and implement a strategies and a teaching intervention programme to improve the adolescents physical activity in a little city of Spain, in an educational context. Students will be divided in two groups (control and intervention) and we will apply in the intervention in one group and we will develop different strategies aimed at improve the active lifestyles in the adolescents. Researchers will compare both groups taking in to account: levels of physical activity, sedentary time, healthy diet, self-concept or different psychosocial outcomes
It is aIt is aimed to examine the possible benefits and effects of the use of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation to be applied in healthy individuals for sportive purposes on recovery and sportive performance level.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of a digital (web and mobile-phone-based) program to improve lifestyle behaviors (physical activity, dietary intake) among Hispanic female cancer survivors and adult daughters.
This cross-sectional study aims to investigate to the impairments in body functions and structures, activities and participation restrictions according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) patients.
Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).
Neck pain-associated disorders (NAD) and whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) are major health problems. NAD has a lifetime prevalence of 54%. Although the majority of patients recovers within the first three months, a minority develops persistent pain. WAD, in contrast, is reported less frequently, but patients are often suffering more badly. Patients with chronic symptoms represent a considerable burden in terms of pain, suffering, health care needs, and social costs. Findings on the natural course of NAD and WAD reflect the necessity to identify factors besides pain related to the persistence of symptoms. First, alterations of input and processing of multiple sensory modalities causing movement control impairment can result in persistent symptoms and affect the quality of life. Besides, findings of psychosocial factors predictive of pain outcomes support the growing body of research proposing a bidirectional relationship between somatic and psychosocial variables. In particular, there is a pressing need to investigate pain-related activity patterns, besides fear-avoidance behavior in NAD and WAD. Maladaptive activity pattern have an impact on on pain and disability in the long-term prognosis. Mt important, given the high prevalence of NAD and WAD, the cortical representation of the cervical spine has not yet been investigated and, reports on neuroplasticity remain scarce. These shortcomings should be addressed to provide evidence for the temporal aspect of neuroplasticity and its involvement in pain persistence. Hypotheses: We hypothesize I. that impaired sensorimotor abilities, mental health at baseline increase pain intensity and disability during measurement. II. that maladaptive pain-related activity patterns avoidance and overactivity at baseline are prognostic factors for pain persistence and disability. III. that the WAD cohort shows more depression, anxiety and stress compared to the NAD cohort.

The purpose of this research is to study two different approaches to exercise during pregnancy that investigators believe will result in improved health for moms and babies. The investigators are trying to determine if the two types of exercise programs (supervised & home exercise) result in health improvements for moms and babies. The investigators also want to see if the tests and questionnaires used in the study can detect changes in a mom's aerobic fitness, quality of life (QOL), fatigue, sleep quality, depression, and weight change throughout pregnancy and 6-months after birth.
