Filter by:The investigators developed a digital intervention that aims to help adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYAs) manage symptoms of depression. This tool includes daily mood tracking, a psychoeducational module about cancer and depression, four components that are based on evidence-based interventions for depression. The goal of this study is to evaluate the acceptability of procedures for a future trial in which the investigators will test which component or combination of components meaningfully contribute to improvements in depressive symptoms among AYAs. Additionally, the investigators will evaluate study feasibility as well as intervention acceptability, satisfaction, usability, and engagement.
Emerging encouraging evidence showed that sleep focused treatment can simultaneously improve sleep and depression in adult with comorbid conditions. Although these favorable changes in depressed adults is encouraging, little is known in the potential efficacy of CBT-I in altering depression trajectory in adolescent population. This current study aims to compare the effect of digitally delivered, mood enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (M-dCBT-I) and standard digital cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (dCBT-I) in improving depressive symptoms in adolescents, and to examine the potential sustained treatment effect in mood outcomes following M-dCBT-I or dCBT-I treatment.
This study is designed to evaluate the effects of a multimodal exercise program in the sprint performance and kinematics of adolescent rugby players. For this, an experimental study with an intervention group (IG) and a control group (CG) is designed. During 6 weeks of the 2022-2023 preseason of rugby seven, IG will include a multimodal exercise program in their training routine. Meanwhile, CG will maintain their training routine. The study will be developed in the Sport High Performance Centre of Balearic Islands during the season of rugby seven (from August to September, 2022). All rugby athletes from under-16 and under-18 autonomic rugby teams will be invited to participate in this study throughout an email invitation from their regional rugby federation. Prior to the beginning of the study, all participants will sign the inform consent, or their legal tutors in case of minors. The Ethical Committee of the local university approved this study (278CER22) according to the Declaration of Helsinki. One week before intervention period, sociodemographic and sportive data will be registered (age, sex, body mass, height, and sport experience). Body mass and height will be evaluated with a ±100-g precision digital weight scale (Tefal, France) and a t201-t4 adult height scale (Asimed, Spain), respectively. Also, the rugby players will complete a familiarization process consisting on a standardized warm up and 3 progressive sprints (i.e. 30 m at 50%, 70% and 90% of maximal effort). All testing procedure (pre-test and post-test) will be completed at a similar daytime (between 17h and 19h) on the same natural grass field. The test procedure listed in our study will consist on two maximal 30-m sprints to obtain mechanical variables of horizontal force-velocity profile and kinematics during sprinting. Players from IG will perform a multimodal exercise program two days per week during six weeks. This program will include running technical drills, exercises for lumbopelvic stabilization and resisted sprints. This program will be supervised by two experts in this field. The investigators hypothesize that those rugby players who add the multimodal exercise program to their training routine will increase mechanical and kinematics variables of sprint performance.
The research will be carried out on students studying at public secondary schools in the city center of Amasya. First of all, the digital game addiction levels of secondary school students who are randomly divided into experimental and control groups will be determined, and then students with digital game addiction will be included in the individual motivational interview program, which will last 6 sessions. In the last stage of the research, hippotherapy will be applied to the students 1 day a week for 8 weeks. The effect of motivational interviewing and hippoterain on digital game addiction will be investigated by pre-testing at the beginning of the research and post-testing at the end.
This study will be a cluster randomized controlled trial to assess the impact of telemedicine in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU), through daily tele-rounds with a board certified physician and educational activities, in improving clinical-assistance indicators, as well as reducing the length of stay in the PICU.
Hidden drug abuse remains a significant concern for public health. An appropriate intervention is necessary to encourage hidden drug abusers to report their situations and seek professional help. This project aims to develop a community-based network to identify and refer hidden drug abusers in Hong Kong, and assess its effectiveness.
The aim of this study is to present the Turkish version of Kids-BESTest and Kids-Mini-BESTest and practice of validity and reliability on school-aged children will be performed by utilizing the Turkish version of Kids-BESTest and Kids-Mini-BESTest in this study.
