This study intends to understand the longitudinal effectiveness of the smartphone- based Helper of Emotional Assessment ＆Relationship Teaching (HEART) videoconferencing program in enhancing residents and family health through the employment of a sequential-methods, triangulation research design. In the phase I lasing 18 months, it will employ: (a) a web-based RT/communication education programs which is develop based on understanding the experience of videoconferencing visit from family in nursing home, and (b) a HEA system which is for real-time face emotion recognition system used in videoconferencing will be developed and tested. In the phase II occupying the second 18 months it will evaluate the longitudinal effects of the HEART program on residents' and family's health change over time (baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months). Nursing homes in Taiwan will be automated computerized blocked randomly assigned to three groups: (a) An RT group, which receives the RT program and uses 3 months' smartphone-based videoconferencing without the HEA system, (b) A HEART group, which receives the RT program and uses 3 months smartphone-based videoconferencing along with the HEA system, and(c) A control group, which has only smartphone-based videoconferencing visits.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the differences between health-related quality of life and meaningful participation among two groups. The main question it aimed to answer are: whether the older adults from experimental group who received 24-week lifestyle modification program would have higher level of health-related quality of life and meaningful participation compared to those who did not receive the program from the control group. Participants in experimental group had to attend in a 24-week lifestyle modification program. Researchers will compare the experimental and control group to see if there were differences between their health-related quality of life and meaningful participation.
This project uses questionnaires to statistically analyze whether influenza vaccination is protective for young children.
The objective is to explore the effects of adding AC-134 on renal function, proteinuria, uremic toxins, and metabolism-related markers in chronic kidney disease.
This study aims to explore the health effects of group games for patients with chronic mental illness. The goal of this clinical intervention study is to compare the efficacy of group games in two ways (experimental group/ group game-based or control group) to improve the health of patients with chronic mental illness. The main questions it aims to answer are: The efficacy of applying group game-based activities to increase interest and improve the physical fitness of patients with chronic mental illness. Also, the goal of this clinical interventional study is to clarify the positive benefits of psychological and social aspects. Subjects will be asked to complete the questionnaire and physical ability examination after filling out the consent of this study. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups. Participants in the experimental group will accept the group game-based activities for 12 weeks (twice per week, 22 times). In contrast, Participants in the control group will accept the activities the psychiatric day wards and halfway house offer as usual. After 12 weeks of intervention, The Participants in both groups will be asked to fill out the questionnaire and physical ability examination. One month later, Participants in both groups will be asked to fill out the questionnaire and physical ability examination again. The study will last for 4 months. The time points for completing the questionnaire are listed following: Baseline/ pre-intervention test(T1), First post-intervention test (T2, 12 weeks later) and Second post-intervention test (T3, 4 weeks later). The researchers will compare the difference in effectiveness between the two groups.

This study will discuss the impact of continuous glucose monitoring on maternal and infant's outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus, and test the moderating effect of socioeconomic and cultural factors (dietary habits, socioeconomic status and income).
previous studies indicated that sensory input can have positive impacts on finger force control in the elderly. Additionally, according to previous reports, apart from pharmacotherapy, nonpharmacologic interventions, such as psychosocial-environmental treatments, are emerging for the behavior and affective symptoms in AD . Moreover, enhanced finger force control and coordination lead to better hand dexterity and is believed to eventually improve life independence in the healthy elderly and the elderly with AD. Therefore, this study aims to develop novel virtual visual and haptic stimulation systems for the elderly to enhance their finger force control.
