Filter by:The research goal is to find a correlation between patient personality characteristics, patients' mood and glycemic control. Eventually, using this information may allow treating physicians the ability to better balance glucose blood levels in patients with T1DM, by recognizing influencing psychological parameters. The conclusion from this research will add to other physiological parameters that are being studied today, and in the future will be integrated into an artificial pancreas. The investigators believe that there is a correlation that hasn't been studied in the past between personality characteristics, daily emotions and the ability to balance glucose blood levels in patients with T1DM.
Pediatric intravenous injection is one of the most painful events that children may be exposed to during hospitalization or illness, and it is also the most routinely performed invasive procedure. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of somatosensory interactive games on intravenous pain relief for preschool children, and to establish a VR (virtual reality) game environment for school-age children. Using a randomized experimental study, the data came from the pediatric ward. The results will show whether there is a statistically significant difference between the experimental group and the control group.
This study aims at improving the emotional regulation strategies, enhancing the parent-child relationship and preventing family conflict among newly arrived and cross-boundary families in Hong Kong. We will provide one of the interventions to the participants: (a) the emotion regulation arm, which aimed at improving the emotion management skill for parent and child; or (b) the information provision arm, which aimed at providing information about Hong Kong, such as education, community resources, medical care, employment, housing, and job-seeking. We aim to recruit 200 parent-child pairs to participate in the study. The participants will be randomly assigned into an emotion regulation arm or an information provision arm. The ratio of the two arms is 3:2. Specifically, 120 and 80 parent-child pairs will be assigned to the emotion regulation arm and the information provision arm, respectively. The two intervention arms will provide four 2-hour weekly sessions to the participants. Before the intervention (T1), immediately after the intervention (T2), and one month after completing the intervention (T3), the participants will finish the assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention.
This project aims to investigate the health effects of making schools greener and more biodiverse. We will mainly focus on cognitive effects, well-being, and BMI. The research hypothesis is that greening schools positively influences the health of children through more exercise and cleaner air.
This study investigates the underlying mechanisms of a novel emotion regulation intervention among recently bereaved spouses. More specifically, this study examines how thinking about an emotional stimulus in a more adaptive way can affect the relationship between psychological stress, psychophysiological biomarkers of adaptive cardiac response, and brain activity. The emotion regulation strategy targeted is reappraisal, specifically reappraisal-by-distancing (i.e., thinking about a negative situation in a more objective, impartial way) versus reappraisal-by-reinterpretation (i.e., thinking about a better outcome for a negative situation than what initially seemed apparent). The study seeks to determine if relatively brief, focused reappraisal training in bereaved spouses will result in reduction of self-reported negative affect, increases in respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA; a measure of heart rate variability reflecting adaptive cardiac vagal tone), reduction in blood-based inflammatory biomarkers, and changes in neural activity over time. Reappraisal-by-distancing is expected to lead to greater changes in these variables relative to reappraisal-by-reinterpretation. Additionally, it is expected that across time decreases in self-reported negative affect, increases in RSA, reductions in blood-based inflammatory biomarker levels, and changes in neural activity will in turn lead to reductions in depressive symptoms and grief rumination. Finally, it is expected that distancing training will lead to reductions in depressive symptoms and grief rumination that are mediated by changes in the targeted neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms.
The aim of this study is to examine, for the first time, the efficacy of a new intervention model for child-led emotion regulation -Purrble- that could be deployed across prevention and treatment contexts.
We aim to investigate the effects of premedication (intranasal or intravenous administration) of s-ketamin, dexmedetomidine, and combination for premedication in children undergoing ENT surgery.
The effects of butyrate on psychobiological processes are examined in a sample of healthy volunteers.
The aim of the project is to assess brain network dynamics, self-referential information processing and prosociality and learning following the modulation of the serotonin-system by serotonergic-psychoactive compounds.
This is a real-life pragmatic non-randomised study to explore the impact of mepolizumab on the emotional and affective outcomes of patients with severe eosinophilic asthma and their partners. It will be conducted in two quantitative stages (Phases 1 and 2) with an additional third qualitative component (Phase 3).
