Filter by:The proposed multicomponent digital health intervention has the potential to significantly impact the trajectory of maternal health in a rural, pregnant, Black adolescent population with the highest risks for cardiometabolic diseases worldwide. The proposed implementation strategy leverages mobile technologies which are ubiquitous across the socioeconomic gradient and proposes to train young adult WIC moms to deliver peer health coaching in a telehealth setting to address social barriers and support behavior change in pregnant, Black adolescent WIC clients in the Mississippi Delta - a rural region where the population is more than two-thirds percent Black and the teen birth rate is the highest in the United States. This is a scalable and sustainable approach to enhance WIC services and improve WIC's impact on population health and cardiometabolic health disparities in Black women.
Total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) is known as the energy used by an organism during a day. The TDEE is divided into resting energy expenditure (REE), the thermic effect of food (TFE), and the energy expenditure of physical activity. There are multiple methods of measuring REE (e.g., estimating equations, direct and indirect calorimetry) among which there are significant discrepancies in its calculation in specific populations. Considering the lack of validation in the Colombian population to estimate the REE, the objective of the present research study is to compare the methods for estimating resting energy expenditure in the Colombian population with different levels of physical activity. This cross-sectional-observational study will be carried out through the guidelines for strengthening the reporting of observational studies in nutritional epidemiology (STROBE-Nut). The study population will be 130 adults from the city of Medellín, Bogotá and metropolitan areas with different levels of physical activity according to the results of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPA-Q) where a high (athletes), moderate (physically active people) and low (sedentary) categorization will be made, then the indirect calorimetry tests will be applied. The development of the equation to estimate the REE will be carried out with multiple regression models under traditional and Bayesian approaches with three independent variables. It is expected to obtain a simple and valid equation to estimate the REE and contribute to the good practices of Colombian practitioners in health sciences, exercise, and sports.
The Effect of Feedback on Physical Activity Surveillance using Wearable Device-Smartphone Application for Resolution of Metabolic Syndrome in Aged 60 or older; a 12-Week Randomized Control Study
The "TakeCare!" study addresses the problem that vocational students of nursing care cope with great physical and psychological demands during their daily routines. To meet these demands, the Bavarian curriculum for generalist nurses has adopted the promotion of physical activity-related health competence (PAHCO) for vocational students. However, it must be assumed that the concept has not yet been adopted comprehensively across the Bavarian nursing landscape. Therefore, the "TakeCare!" study tackles the question of how PAHCO can be implemented most appropriately in Bavarian nursing schools. Drawing on experiences from the project PArC-AVE, three different dissemination approaches will being tested and compared with a control group. A total of 16 nursing schools from different regions of Bavaria will be assigned to four different study arms (cluster-randomized design). In the long term, the project aims to derive recommendations for all nursing schools in Bavaria.
The goal of this study, named the Active Learning for PHYsical Literacy (ALPHYL) study, was to describe a multicomponent class-based physically-active learning randomized control trial (RCT) in primary school children. The main purpose was to promote children's physical literacy, academic achievement and cognitive function. The ALPHYL study is mainly based on physical literacy, active school models and Supportive, Active, Autonomous, Fair and Enjoyable principles.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about in former COVID-19 patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - are there any association among pain, fear of falling, fall frequency, and physical activity level - are there any difference between former COVID-19 elders and non-COVID-19 elderly population
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the developed program on screen usage time and physical activity for pre-school children.
In this study, we will implement a pilot project of using activity tracker (i.e., Fitbit) with phase III CR clients. The study will record the clients' daily steps and sleep patterns for 8 consecutive weeks in natural settings. Two specific aims are identified for this project: 1. Develop an intervention protocol using mHealth to promote Phase III CR clients' self-monitoring of PA. 2. Examine the efficacy of the intervention on clients' PA, sleep patterns, functional capacity and QoL.
The purpose of our study is to explore the effectiveness of physical activity (PA) identity formation in the family system as a promotor of long-term PA. The primary research question is: Does a family identity formation condition (with education+planning) result in increased child moderate- to vigorous-intensity PA (MVPA) compared to a standard comparison education and planning condition at six months? Hypothesis: Child MVPA will be higher for the identity formation condition in comparison to the more standard PA education+planning condition at six months.
It is already known that lifestyle is closely related to human health, disease formation, learning and work efficiency. Although there have been relevant researches on lifestyle, there is no research on the current situation of college students' lifestyle and its correlation with their studies; In addition, how to effectively and scientifically intervene unhealthy lifestyles and observe the sustainability of the intervention effect has not been reported. Therefore, this research takes the students in Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine as the research object to carry out a survey, understand the current situation of their lifestyle, analyze the influence of gender, major, grade and education on their lifestyle, and explore the correlation between lifestyle and academic performance; And then the targeted intervention is to be carried out against the unhealthy lifestyle factors in order to observe the intervention effect and its sustainability
