Filter by:Stroke is the major cause of disability worldwide and leads to psychosocial issues for community-dwelling stroke survivors in their recovery journey. Previous studies showed the benefits of visual arts-based interventions in enhancing self-efficacy and psychosocial functions. However, the interventions were not well designed with a theoretical framework. This study will investigate the effects of a theory-driven visual arts-based intervention on community-dwelling stroke survivors' psychosocial outcomes. A two-arm randomised controlled trial will be conducted. This is a feasibility trial to test the preliminary effects of this intervention and assess its feasibility and acceptability.
Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the opinions of earthquake victims about the problems affecting women's health physically and psychosocially after the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake. Method: The study was designed in a qualitative type (semi-structured). The population of the study consisted of women affected by the 2023 Kahramanmaraş-Pazarcık earthquake. 15 women were interviewed.
This clinical trial aims to implement multimodal digital interventions for adolescents and young adults with social isolation (SI) and their family members. Furthermore, the neurobiological basis of SI will be explored by analyzing blood neuroinflammation biomarkers in socially isolated participants. The main questions that this project aims to answer are: - What is the general feasibility and applicability of the proposed digital interventions? - What is the effect of the proposed digital interventions on the SI-related clinical symptoms and the cognitive and global functioning of participants with SI? Participants will be asked to undergo: - A detailed clinical and neuropsychological evaluation (pre-post treatment) - A blood sample (pre-post treatment) - A telepsychiatry intervention (cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and/or cognitive remediation (CR) for SI participants and psychoeducation (PE) for family members) The researchers will compare SI participants treated with CBT+CR (experimental group) with SI patients treated only with CBT (control group) to see if the combined intervention of the experimental group leads to more durable and generalizable effects. The same PE intervention will be offered to the family members of all recruited SI participants.
Purpose: The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether probiotics can reduce gastrointestinal and psychosocial symptoms in post-treatment cancer survivors by impacting the gut microbiome. Objectives: The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: - Does taking the probiotic reduce gastrointestinal (e.g. belly pain) and psychosocial (e.g. depressive symptoms, fatigue) symptoms, and impact the gut microbiome? - What relationships exist between gut bacteria, gastrointestinal, and psychosocial symptoms? Methods: The study team will investigate this by giving a group of adult post-treatment cancer survivors either a probiotic capsule (intervention) or placebo capsule (control) over 12 weeks. Investigators will then analyze the bacterial diversity in participants' stool samples before and after these 12 weeks to see how the bacterial composition changed due to the treatment. Surveys will be used to ask participants questions about their physical and mental health, including specific gastrointestinal and psychosocial symptoms. Implications: Cancer recovery is tough enough, and to minimize treatment-related long-term effects through a simple probiotic capsule would immensely improve the well-being and health of survivors.
To meet adolescents' needs regarding mental health vulnerability, this study aims to propose and evaluate three original school-based preventive interventions delivered to French 13y-adolescents, with respect to their effects on mental health outcomes, as well as users' experiences of intervention, evaluated through questionnaires. Based on cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT) techniques, these interventions target three strategic process areas: reactive adaptation, proactive adaptation, and interpersonal adaptation. Their effectiveness will be evaluated through a four-arm randomized controlled trial, conducted in an ecological context. Intra-group and inter-group comparisons will be carried out for our different variables of interest, namely targeted psychological processes, levels of distress, functional impairment, and well-being, and user experience indicators of acceptability, utility, and usability.
Hotspotters are patients with complex care needs, defined by problems in multiple life domains and high acute care use. These patients often receive mismatched care, resulting in overuse of care and increased healthcare costs. Reliable data on (cost-)effective interventions for these patients are scarce. The goal of this study is to assess the cost-effectiveness of pro-active and integrated care. This approach includes: an intake consultation with Positive Health; multidisciplinary meetings with physician, mental healthcare nurse, social worker and the patient; a personalised care plan and proactive care management. We aim to include 200 patients, divided over 20 primary care practices.
The aim of our study is to determine the severity of the disease in people with Meniere's Disease; physical conditions such as balance, posture, pain, physical activity level, neck joint range of motion, proprioception; to examine psychosocial conditions such as depression, anxiety, sleep quality, fatigue, and quality of life and to make a comprehensive evaluation by comparing it with healthy volunteers.
The primary aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of headache in undergraduate students. The frequency, duration, localizations and symptoms of headache will be determined with the information obtained as a result of the forms filled in by the participants. The second aim of this study is to examine the effects of headache on physical, social and psychological status in undergraduate student(participants) from a biopsychosocial perspective.
A pilot randomized controlled trial will be adopted. A total of forty adolescents with intellectual and physical disabilities will be randomly allocated into either intervention group receiving a 4-week laughter yoga programme (8 sessions) or control group receiving routine care in a 1:1 ratio based on computer-generated random schedule. The aim of this pilot study is to preliminarily evaluate the effects of a 4-week laughter yoga programme (8 sessions) on the mood, anxiety and loneliness among adolescents with intellectual and physical disabilities in a special school in Hong Kong. Hypotheses for primary outcomes of this study are as follows: H.1 Participants receiving the 4-week laughter yoga programme (8 sessions) (intervention group) will have a greater improvement on mood level than the participants receiving routine care provided by the special school as usual (control group). H.2 Participants receiving the 4-week laughter yoga programme (8 sessions) (intervention group) will have a greater reduction on anxiety than the participants receiving routine care provided by the special school as usual (control group). H.3 Participants receiving the 4-week laughter yoga programme (8 sessions) (intervention group) will have a greater reduction on loneliness than the participants receiving routine care provided by the special school as usual (control group).
