Filter by:This study aimed to assess the impact of consumption of COMBO, a combination product of two Bifidobacterium longum strains, on stress, mood and bowel symptoms in adults with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
This study aims to identify the preference of the class modalities (classroom or online) in undergraduate and graduate students. Additionally, to explore if the presence of any mental state alterations such as depression or anxiety due to the COVID-19 pandemic can alter their perception of academic performance.
The investigators are conducting a comparative effectiveness trial among adult patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who report chronic pain (N = 350), randomized to receive either mobile phone-delivered computerized cognitive behavioral therapy (cCBT; n = 175) or digital education (m-Education; n = 175). Both intervention groups will receive weekly (more frequent if requested or needed) follow-up with a health coach for at least 3 months to reinforce learned materials. Both groups will also use their mobile device to track daily pain, mood, and medication used for two-week periods at baseline and each of the follow-up points (3, 6 and 12 months). Participants will also be given access to a study-associated online support group page where members can discuss with other patients, issues participants faced and what skills were or could be used to address them. Participants will continue all routine care including opioid pain management and novel therapies.
A mixed methods proof of concept study to ascertain the effectiveness of a home-based self-administered neurofeedback intervention to treat the primary and secondary symptoms of chronic pain.
The investigators wish to test the hypothesis that transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) (i.e., 4-minutes of 810nm near-infrared light at 250 mW/cm2 by LED to the forehead at F3 or F4 versus an indistinguishable placebo treatment) can safely reduce opioid craving in individuals with opioid dependence in a within-patient study.
The overarching goal of primary care is to offer all patients individualized and context-sensitive healthcare with high access and continuity. One of the reasons primary care struggles with this goal is that many patients suffer from mental health problems, while there is a lack of psychosocial resources as well as clear pathways for these patients. Primary care behavioural health (PCBH, in Swedish IBH) is an innovative way of organizing primary care, where psychosocial resources have more and shorter visits, strive for same-day access, and have an active consulting role in the primary care team. To help patients with achieving relevant behavior changes, so called Brief Interventions are used. However, these interventions have not been systematically evaluated in the same way that CBT has, and there is a risk that patients that would have benefitted from structured CBT are undertreated. This study is a pilot study preparing for a large multicenter study that will be conducted starting in late 2020. The investigators want to find out if an addition of an extended evaluation and possibility of treatment with guided CBT self-help can increase the treatment effects of PCBH on patient functioning and symptoms, compared to standard PCBH with a contextual assessment and brief interventions. In the process, the investigators are also conducting one of the first RCT on brief interventions. As this is a pilot study, the feasibility of implementing the study protocol in regular healthcare is also tested in order to collect high-quality data while creating minimal disturbance in the centers' ordinary routines. PCBH has the potential to increase the quality of care for patients with mental health problems. This study is the first to step towards answering the question if the effects of brief intervention are large enough to merit large-scale implementation, and if an add-on of other brief and easily implemented treatments can increase them.
This pilot study aims to measure the effects of an intervention of 22.5 grams of freeze-dried whole blueberry powder in water drunk daily. Measures are on outcomes of depression, biological markers of inflammation and oxidative stress, and microbial populations in the intestines.
Psychological distress is a significant problem for healthcare professionals and students in training. The investigator question the prevalence of this problem in French residents in anaesthesia and intensive care training.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a modified yoga program helps improve pain and function in elders age 65 years or older living in an assisted living community. Participation in regular physical activity, such as yoga, may improve strength and mobility and decrease pain. This study was developed to ascertain whether a modified yoga program improves pain and function in assisted-living elders, age 65 years and older.
The present study aims to determine the effect of presenting psychoeducation emphasizing "growth-mindset," and information on depression and anxiety symptom severity. The investigators hypothesize that psychoeducation emphasizing that mental health is malleable will increase the participant's engagement with risk factors outlined in the intervention
