Filter by:This study is a conceptually integrated community-based participatory research study that includes the design and evaluation of an intervention to promote mental wellness and physical activity for Karenni children and young adults.
The purpose of the research study is to trial a smart phone application, the GUIDE App, to better understand its impact on social connectedness, personal growth and mental health/wellness among first responders, soldiers, and veterans. The research team will also investigate workplace metrics (e.g., engagement and burnout), implementation outcomes and technical merit. The investigators plan to run a three-armed randomized waitlist pilot feasibility trial with up to 150 participants.
The goal of this study is to address a key health inequity - lack of community access to evidence-based programs to prevent chronic health conditions (e.g., Type 2 Diabetes) - by tailoring and delivering a family-based lifestyle and stress management intervention, Health Without Barriers/Salud Sin Barreras, for adolescents and their families living in rural Southwest Colorado. The intervention is a lifestyle program that addresses healthy lifestyle habits within the family context to support adolescent mental health (mindfulness intervention) and healthy weight (physical activity, nutrition, and parent education).
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility of a mobile app-based mindfulness training program in collegiate student-athletes. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is a app-based mindfulness program feasible for use with collegiate student athletes? - What, if any, benefits are seen in the mental wellbeing of collegiate student athletes following mindfulness training? Participants will use the Calm app to complete semi-structured program of 21 mindfulness sessions over 6 weeks. Participants will complete each 8-15 minute sessions at a location and time of their choosing.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new, community-based, group intervention called FIESTA (Familias Inmigrantes Empoderándose contra eStrés Tomando Acción) to understand how well it helps Latinx immigrant families deal with the impact of stress due to structural racism. Structural racism is defined as the policies, practices, and norms that work together to limit equal opportunities for minority communities. For Latinx immigrant families, this can include fears of deportation, lack of bilingual providers, and discrimination. These experiences of structural racism can turn into stress, which impacts well-being and mental health. Researchers will investigate if: 1) FIESTA lowers stress and mental health symptoms (anxiety/depression) and increases feelings of empowerment, improved knowledge of resources, better parent-youth relationship quality, and higher use of healthy coping skills; and 2) FIESTA is feasible (easy to carry out), acceptable (agreeable or satisfactory), and appropriate (relevant to the needs of Latinx families). FIESTA is ten-sessions and will be led by two community health workers. Researchers will enroll 35 parent-adolescent dyads (35 study-eligible parents and 35 study-eligible youth) in the initial study. This study will randomize parent-youth dyads to the treatment arm or waitlist-control arm using block randomization. In other words, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups, the First Group, or the Second Group. The First Group will begin immediately, and the Second Group will begin after three months. Data will be collected at baseline and three- and six-month post-baseline.
Prolonged COVID, also known as post-COVID or Sar-CoV-2 infection with post-acute sequelae, refers to a set of multi-organ symptoms that persist in patients who have suffered SARS-CoV-2 infection, even after of the acute phase of the disease. Approximately 10% of people experience this set of symptoms after their acute COVID has resolved. Such symptoms may include respiratory problems, myalgia, extreme fatigue, moodiness, cognitive impairment, and difficulty sleeping. Psychological therapies, such as mindfulness, have already demonstrated their effectiveness in pathologies of this type, improving mental health and physical function, as well as reinforcing acceptance and reducing symptoms. Specifically, amygdala-insula training was originally designed for patients with chronic fatigue syndrome as a method of reducing chronic over-sensitization and heightened fear response of the amygdala, which may be behind some of the symptoms related to both with this pathology as with fibromyalgia. A lot of research is currently being done on different types of treatments such as pharmaceutical, biological, dietary, homeopathic and rehabilitation for the treatment of persistent COVID; however, an effective treatment has not yet been found. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the impact of a retraining intervention of the amygdala and insula for the improvement of the quality of life of patients with persistent COVID.
The study aims to examine the effects of a mindfulness-based intervention and a mindfulness-based intervention with virtual reality on occupational balance and on the reduction of psychological distress in university students (i.e. stress, anxiety and depression). The specific objectives will be to examine the effects of the intervention on other variables related to mental health, psychological functioning and occupations, and their maintenance at three months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of a probiotic strain on mental wellbeing in moderately stressed, healthy, adults in the general population. The main question it aims to answer is • what is the impact of probiotic consumption on overall mental wellbeing? Participants will consume one probiotic or placebo capsule per day, answer a set of questionnaire (at 3 time points) and wear a wearable device for the total duration of the study.
The Norwegian government is implementing the Nurse Family Partnership program (NFP) to combat child abuse and social inequality. This study will examine NFP with an individually randomized controlled parallel-group trial. The study will enroll 700 mothers over two years, with half receiving NFP services and the other half receiving standard care. The primary outcome is violence towards mothers and their children, assessed through questionnaires and observation tests. The study will also evaluate the program's effects on various health-related outcomes using administrative data. Cost-effectiveness analyses will be conducted to compare NFP to existing services and improve its delivery efficiency.
Research problem and specific questions: Health-related habits influences mental and physical health. Still, screening and treatment of health-related habits, which can help to remedy health problems, is not done at all or very superficially. National guidelines emphasize the importance of prioritizing health-related habits, but there is a lack of implemented models. To solve this, the investigators have developed a transdiagnostic, interprofessional material intended for several care settings. Study 1: Is LEV a feasible intervention in different healthcare contexts? Study 2: A functional roadmap to healthier habits: A thematic analysis of themes form the functional analysis of unhealthy and healthy lifestyle behavior in adults with disabilities This study will use data from study 1.
