Filter by:The purpose of the study is to see how different forms of the squat exercise change my body's leg muscle activity. Four forms of the traditional back squat will be used: traditional back squat, barefoot squat, box squat, and traditional back squat with chains.
The study is a controlled, randomized intervention trial. Patients are randomized into either an intervention group or a control group. The duration of the study is 10 weeks. Patients in the intervention group participate in a 10 weeks exercise program consisting of 150 minutes interval walking per week administered by an app on the patient's telephone. Patients in the control group live as usually, with a maximum of 30 minutes aerobic exercise per week. Before and after the 10 weeks study period, patients (from both the intervention and the control group) participate in a 2 hours session of functional testing (e.g. walk tests, test of muscle strength ect.) at Rigshospitalet.
This research will examine the effectiveness of a guaraná nutrition energy bar supplement on cancer-related fatigue based on scores from fatigue questionnaires. Participants will be randomized to one of three study arms: 1) two guaraná energy bars/day, 2) one guaraná energy bar/day 3) usual-care only/ no guaraná energy bars during study in cancer patients who have completed cancer treatment. We would also like to find out if this energy bar supplement improves physical performance, mood and reduces plasma glutamine and inflammation.
MicroRNAs were shown to play an important role in regulating pain-processing in a wide range of experimental models and clinical pain disorders. Thus, the aim of the present study is to evaluate a set of Micro-RNAs as diagnostic biomarkers of pain intensity in adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and to correlate with inflammatory markers and pain related comorbidities.
Approximately 10-20% of patients experience ongoing symptoms despite having received standard antibiotic therapy for Lyme disease. Possible explanations for persistent symptoms include persistent infection and/or post-infectious causes. Recent in vitro studies indicate that disulfiram is effective at killing both the actively replicating and the more quiescent persister forms of Borrelia burgdorferi, the microbe that causes Lyme Disease. In this study, the investigators are examining the safety of disulfiram among patients with post-treatment Lyme disease symptoms. The investigators are also conducting a preliminary investigation regarding the relative benefit of 4 vs 8 weeks of treatment with disulfiram.
The treatment of anemia depends on its cause. Patients with underlying iron-deficient anemia should be treated or referred to a specialist (eg gynecologist, gastroenterologist) for treatment.deficiency anemia are global health problems and common medical conditions seen in everyday clinical practice. Iron is vital for biological functions, such as breathing, energy production, DNA synthesis, and cell proliferation. Iron deficiency refers to the reduction of iron stores and precedes the occurrence of iron deficiency anemia. Iron deficiency anemia is a more severe condition in which low levels of iron are associated with anemia and the presence of small cellular red blood cells.
Test the short-term effects of the acute consumption of two separate beverages containing different concentrations of polyphenols, a beverage containing 75 mg of caffeine and a flavored placebo beverage on mental energy and physical performance
Whole Body Vibration Therapy (WBVT) has been identified as a useful tool to increase peripheral blood flow. The present study aimed at how dynamic exercises with WBVT immediate effect on hemodynamic response and fatigue parameters in patients with obesity.
This study is expected to demonstrate that during experimental days of seated computer work sustained and focalized low-level muscle activity contributes to the development of long-lasting fatigue effects (and thus possible disorder). On days with and without frequent interruptions, signs of fatigue and the activity pattern of the trapeze muscle are registered and compared using electromyographic registrations of the trapezius muscle.
The Overall Aim of the present proposal is to evaluate the feasibility of an integrated mind-body intervention, Activate for Life, to improve overall physical activity and mental health and reduce pain and fatigue, resulting in increased likelihood of Aging in Place. Both subjective self-report (i.e., Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System PROMIS measures of pain, fatigue, depression and anxiety) and objective accelerometer data will be collected, along with standardized measures of balance, strength, and stability. In addition, the measures will be complemented with biomarker-based measures of stress, including cortisol based and 1,5-AG anhydroglucitol assays before, during, and after treatment that are correlated with stress, and fatigue symptoms.
