Filter by:This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of various recovery strategies (such as longer recovery periods or reduced exercise intensity) in optimizing both physical performance and overall health status. Furthermore, the study will explore the potential of using changes in blood and urinary markers as indicators for assessing recovery status. This study will assess whether extending recovery periods between exercise sessions and reducing the volume of exercise training can enhance the recovery process and enhance performance and health-related markers, relative to a control group. One hundred-fifth young males will be recruited to participate in a single-center, parallel-group, randomized, well-controlled, superiority trial for 8 weeks of high-volume exercise training. A single-center, parallel-group, randomized, well-controlled, superiority trial will be conducted among 150 physically active young males. Participants will undergo an 8-week high-volume exercise during base training program, which they will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) a control group, which will follow the standard exercise regimen of 35 hours/week (n = 50); (2) a less exercise volume group, which will reduce exercise volume by 15% to 30 hours/week (n = 50); and (3) an extended recovery group, which will perform the same volume of exercise as the control group (35 hours/week), but with longer recovery intervals between exercises (n = 50). The intervention will take place at the Ministry of Defense training platform. All study measurements will be taken at baseline and throughout the study. Body composition will be assessed using multichannel bioelectrical impedance (Seca). Continuously monitor (Garmin) will be used to evaluate heart rate and heart rate variability. Fasting blood samples will be used to examine inflammatory, lipid, glycemic, and endocrine markers. Physical performance will be assessed by several validated assessments, including handgrip, maximal voluntary contraction, Wingate test, Isometric Mid-Thigh Pull (IMTP), counter movement jump (CMJ) and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max).
The purpose of this study is to find out the meaning of recovery after lung cancer surgery from a patient's point of view. The results of this study would help improve postoperative recovery in lung cancer patients.
The DUNDRUM Forensic Redevelopment Evaluation study (D-FOREST study) is a multi-site comprehensive evaluation of a complete National Forensic Mental Health Service. The study will have a prospective, observational, longitudinal design which will permit the evaluation of benefit over time for individual patients, groups of patients and the evaluation of the benefit in terms of service based outcomes of the redevelopment of a complete National Forensic Mental Health Service e.g. effects on waiting list times, length of stay. The study will systematically evaluate multiple domains of recovery in a complete National Forensic Service, including patients' physical health, mental health, offending behaviours and social and occupational functioning.
The study aims at assessing the influence of β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB) supplementation (4.0 g/day) supplemented for 7 days in a group of speed-strength trained individuals on lower-body strength performance, selected muscle histological, molecular and blood markers of muscle recovery in response to resistance exercise-induced muscle damage.
The aim of this project, would be to develop a new formula, with high nutrition content on a vegan basis. The investigators expect to produce this novel vegan-based juice product, which does not exist on the marked today. The juice would consist of different selected varieties of vegetables and fruits. Beside the vegetables, the juice will also contain plant oils to increase the calorie level, as well as a protein sources containing amino acids with high anabolic effects. The products will be tested in an intervention study on patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
Currently, there is evidence that structured care within the healthcare system increases the conditions for good care and better recovery. We want to investigate whether a new care concept (gero-ERAT) that combines two variants of structured care can improve the recovery of elderly patients affected by a physical trauma. Our hope is that the project will reduce the complications, short care times, fewer re-admissions and that more patients can return to regular living, which reduces the suffering for the patient and his relatives. In addition to patient benefit, a successful outcome will also result in reduced costs for healthcare and society as a whole. The concept of care is based on an increased patient participation, which is in line with the values of the Västra Götaland region and the Sahlgrenska university hospital Through the PhD project, four studies will be published. A qualitative interview study to investigate patients' experiences of care and recovery after trauma. After that, a prospective cohort survey of two groups is carried out; conventional care and gero-ERAT. Data will begin to be collected in the control group and when the control group is full geroRATAT will be implemented in the care department and we then collect data in the intervention group. Based on collected data, we will publish two additional studies one with a focus on health economics as well as one focusing on care time and recovery based on age and harvest estimation.
In recent years, many studies have shown that prehabilitation based on aerobic training strategies could have a positive effect on the recovery of postoperative functional capacity in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. Investigators are proposing a prospective randomized controlled trial to compare the impact of a short home-based multimodal prehabilitation strategy to preoperative aerobic training on patients scheduled for video-assisted thorascopic lobectomy for lung cancer. The multimodal prehabilitation strategy includes guided aerobic and resistance exercise, breathing exercises, nutrition supplement and physiology management preoperatively, while the aerobic strategy offers the same aerobic training guidance without the other parts. The prehabilitation lasts 2-3 weeks in our center. Investigators follow-up patients until 30 days after surgery, to investigate whether multimodal prehabilitation strategy differs from aerobic training program in postoperative functional capability improvement, health-related quality of life scorings, incidence of postoperative complications and other outcomes.
