Filter by:This study aimed to evaluate the effect of warm water foot baths on comfort, fatigue, and dialysis symptoms in patients undergoing hemodialysis. This study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial. Data were collected with a total of 58 patients,31 in the intervention group and 27 in the placebo group. The data in the study is collected using the intervention and control group informed volunteer Form, Patient Demonstration Form, foot Bath Application Monitoring Chart, fatigue VAS Scale Form, dialysis Symptom Index, and Hemodialysis Comfort Scale.
To date, little is understood regarding post-COVID fatigue or cancer fatigue though it is known to affect a large proportion of patients (10-70% depending on the population). This study aims to investigate potential mitochondrial function and metabolic changes in brain to provide further information regarding the etiology of these changes leading to fatigue. This study hypothesized that Post-COVID fatigue is ensued by perturbations in metabolism and mitochondrial function in the brain. This is a case-control study. In this study, 30 patients (experimental group) complaining of persistent fatigue lasting longer than 4 weeks after recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection and the age/gender-matched control of 30 healthy subjects (control group 1) and 30 patients suffering from cancer-related fatigue patients longer than 4 weeks after remission (control group 2). Both the experimental group (post-COVID fatigue) and control group 2 (cancer fatigue) will be recruited from NUH outpatient clinic will undergo a session of MRI, 3D Arterial Spin Labelling (ASL) and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and the Chalder Fatigue Scale, Health Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale at baseline and follow-up visit.
The aim of the study is to access the efficacy and safety of acupuncture for post COVID-19 fatigue.
This is a phase II 2-arm randomized controlled trial comparing yoga (Yoga for Cancer Survivors, YOCAS©®) to standard care in reducing cancer-related fatigue in Hispanic cancer survivors. Survivors randomized to Arm 1 will receive Standard Care and Arm 2 will receive standard care plus a four-week YOCAS©® intervention where Hispanic survivors attend yoga sessions together. Investigators will acquire preliminary data on cancer-related fatigue, as well as, secondary data on other common side effects.
More than half of recovered COVID-19 patients experience fatigue. Studies are needed to define the profile of these patients. The objective of this study is to evaluate the profile of surviving patients of COVID-19 in relation to fatigue.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a 3-month period of quercetin supplementation (500 mg of Quercetin Phytosome®) is useful in the treatment of chronic fatigue, as assessed by the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS-40). Secondary end points are sleep assessment through Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and muscle performance assessment through the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and body composition assessment using DXA.
Fatigue, which is commonly defined as a feeling of tiredness during or after usual activities, or a feeling of insufficient energy to initiate these activities, is one of the most common secondary conditions among patients presenting with stroke. Post Stroke Fatigue (PSF) is a multidimensional motor-perceptual, emotional, and cognitive experience characterized by a feeling of early exhaustion with tiredness, lack of energy, and difficulty making efforts, which develops during physical or mental activities, and usually does not improve with rest. To try to counteract fatigue and its effects on daily life activities, in addition to the known pharmacological approach (Modafinil), the use of vitamins and minerals is known to mitigate, among others, the effects of fatigue. Nutrients provide the energy needed to maintain the body's structural and biochemical integrity. Energy is associated with a feeling of well-being, increased stamina and vitality which often translates into the ability to undertake daily physical or cognitive activities and social relationships, as opposed to fatigue. A common feature of fatigue is a "sense of energy exhaustion" which can objectively be related to not enough energy. Physical and cognitive tiredness occurs when the continuous demand for energy from the brain and muscles is not met. In humans, dietary macronutrients provide the fuel needed, among other things, to perform physical activity. In fact, mineral salts and vitamins are essential for the production of cellular energy, for the maintenance of brain structures and for allowing the formation of intercellular connections. When the intake of vitamins and mineral salts is adequate, their biochemical properties translate into normal physiological functions; a lower intake of mineral salts and vitamins is associated with lethargy and physical and cognitive fatigue. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of vitamin and mineral supplementation for the management of physical and cognitive fatigue. SiderAL® Med is a food for Special Medical Purposes (AFMS), with a complete formulation that contains vitamins, sucrosomial minerals (Iron, Iodine, Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium), copper and algal calcium, with enhanced dosages to meet particular needs nutritional. AFMS are products formulated for the dietary management of patients with proven nutritional needs, for whom modifications to the normal diet are not sufficient. In some cases, these are subjects with limited, disturbed or altered ability to take, digest, absorb, metabolize or eliminate certain nutrients, in other cases, however, nutritional needs can be determined by specific clinical conditions. On the basis of scientific evidences, therefore, the aim of the study is to evaluate whether the nutritional supplement with SiderAL® Med improves the symptom of fatigue, motor and cognitive function in patients with stroke outcomes.
The purpose of the study will be to investigate the effect of kinesotaping augmented by resistive exercise on fatigue, muscle strength, and QoL in breast cancer survivors.
Athlete nutrition is becoming an increasingly important factor on the path to achieving top results. Nutrients such as soluble fiber can alter the intestinal microbiota, resulting in metabolites with a positive effect on metabolism. Thus, the fibers become available, an additional source of energy to the host, have an anti-stress effect and delay the feeling of fatigue. The primary goal of the study is to determine the impact of soluble dietary fiber on increasing athletic efficiency, the secondary goal is to determine the impact of fiber on delaying fatigue. Subjects will be randomly divided into experimental and control group. The sample of variables will consist of genome microbiota genome sequencing data, measures to assess morphological characteristics, lower extremity explosive strength tests, and cardiovascular endurance. The statistical package SPSS will be used for data processing. The expected scientific contribution of this research is to expand the scientific knowledge about the importance of dietary fiber in the diet of athletes with the aim of improving sports performance.
