Evaluation of the impact of a whole food, plant-based (WFPB) program using shared medical appointments (SMAs) on reducing cardiovascular risk factors and weight loss in overweight/obese adults with at least one chronic disease
A qualitative study conducted in 2018 Exploring socio-cultural factors impacting adherence to type 2 diabetes therapy in rural Sargodha featured respondents who were primarily doctors, patients, and. Diet, exercise, and smoking were all variables. The void we investigators will fill will be comprised of several professionals assessing sleep and sedentary lifestyle. A book on anthropology published in 2021 shows the gap are still the same about sedentary life style. The investigators aim to determine lifestyle practices in relation to sedentary behaviour in different occupations & comparing which profession is prone to chronic diseases in accordance to lifestyle practices
Descriptive comparative study of immunosenescence markers and their association with nutritional, metabolic, metabolomic and genetic characteristics in young (control), senior (age-associated immunosenescence), and populations susceptible to premature immunosenescence such as obese patients, cancer patients and patients who developed severe forms of COVID19 or persistent COVID19. In one of these populations of premature immunosenescence, the population group with overweight or obesity, a prospective and cross-sectional nutritional intervention study is proposed, with data capture and monitoring using digital tools, to evaluate the evolution of immunosenescence markers and assess more objectively and effectively the nutritional status and help in making personalised decisions thanks to the application of these tools. This nutritional intervention will be focused on controlled and safe weight loss that will allow the capture of a large number of variables on lifestyle and dietary habits, nutritional assessment, biochemical, metabolic, genetic, metagenomic, lipidomic and metabolomic markers measured statically and also continuously.
It is an observational research, conducted at the Cayenne hospital about the future of hypertensive and/or diabetic patients after their follow-up at the Permanent Access to care (PASS). The PASS is a medico-social structure that allows access to medical monitoring and support towards common law. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the use of the common law system by these patients. Then the goal is to study the relationship between integration into the system and socio-demographic, medical characteristics, and understanding of health monitoring. Data will be collected by guided telephone interviews and the review of medical records.
Background: The number of people living with chronic conditions limiting the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) tasks is increasing. Occupational therapists are trained to deliver interventions to improve ADL ability. Municipality occupational therapy interventions are usually delivered as one-to-one sessions in the client´s home. While this intervention format might be effective, a group-based intervention format might be as effective but more cost-effective? Hence, the group-based ADAPT program was developed, piloted and evaluated for its functioning and feasibility in municipality settings. These studies provided initial evidence for the ADAPT Programs effectiveness. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) is however needed to document effectiveness, processes, and cost-effectiveness of the ADAPT program versus usual occupational therapy (UOT) for people with chronic conditions. Prior to the RCT, this pilot and feasibility study will be conducted to test aspects of trial design, conduct and processes as well as intervention content and delivery. Material and Methods: A total of 16 home dwelling persons with chronic conditions, experiencing ADL task performance problems will be randomized and allocated to receive ADAPT (intervention) or UOT (control). Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness assessments are collected at baseline and post intervention i.e., 3-months (week 12) and 6-months (week 26) from baseline. Pilot and feasibility aspects will be evaluated by means of registrations forms filled out by the OTs delivering ADAPT and people with chronic conditions attending ADAPT. Registrations are designed to inform aspects of 1) recruitment and retention, 2) trial participation, 3) impact of trial on participants and staff, 4) completion rates, 5) fidelity and dose 6) assesable information and 7) adaptation of trial conduct to local context. Progression criteria for when to 'go', 'amend' or 'be alert/stop' are defined, to support the decision on whether to continue to RCT or the need to adjust design or procedures,
The goal of this feasibility study is to get insight into the receptivity of a JITAI aimed at healthy dietary intake in inhabitants of a small city in the Netherlands. The main question it aims to answer is: • what is the right time and the right location to send notifications to people and for what type of interventions are people most receptive? Furthermore, the aim is to get insight into the relevance and usability of the app, the privacy concerns that people have and the perceived effectiveness of the app on dietary intake. Participants will test our app for 2 weeks, of which they will receive prompts during one week.
In a primary care settled quality improvement project aiming to deprescribe medication through a medication review intervention, we investigated how the implemented medication changes affected health-related outcomes in real-life patients.
Following the MRisk-COVID project, MTOP (Multimorbidity Trajectories in Older Patients) study was developed. It is a retrospective observational study using Real World Data that aims to identify patterns of chronic multimorbidity in patients aged ≥65 years and their evolution and trajectories in the previous 10 years. The secondary objective is to identify the relationship between the trajectories of multimorbidity patterns in the previous 10 years and the severity of the infection by COVID-19.
