Filter by:Sleep is essential to human health and well-being. Lack of or poor sleep can negatively impact cognitive function, mood, and physical performance. Athletes, especially elite athletes, are at risk for sleep problems due to heavy training schedules and the stress of travel. Lack of or poor sleep can negatively impact athletes in many ways, including lack of sleep can lead to mood disorders such as irritability, anxiety, and depression. This may have a negative impact on athlete motivation and participation in training. Sleep deprivation can lead to decreased muscle strength, endurance, and coordination. This can affect an athlete's performance in training and competition phase. Sleep hygiene refers to a set of practices aimed at regulating the sleep environment and habits to improve sleep quality. Sleep hygiene education is an intervention designed to teach athletes about the importance of sleep hygiene to improve their sleep quality. As sleep quality improves, attention, concentration, memory, and decision-making skills also improve . This can help athletes to perform better during training and competition. As sleep quality improves, mood disorders such as irritability, anxiety, and depression decrease. This can increase athlete motivation and participation in training. As sleep quality improves, so does muscle strength, endurance, and coordination.
This study will investigate the effects of physical activity in young adults. With the increase in physical activity, the change in smartphone addiction, pain and sleep quality parameters will be evaluated.
With funding from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Tufts University's Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy will be implementing a new, health and wellbeing program for Head Start educators at ABCD Head Start Centers in the greater Boston area. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combined impact of a health and wellness program and behavior change guides. The evaluation will focus on ABCD Head Start educators as the study population. Tufts University's Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy is responsible for implementing and evaluating this new intervention through surveys and analysis of administrative (health and wellness App) data. A paper and pencil survey will be used to gather information on dietary, physical activity, and sleep behaviors. The surveys will also include a module on satisfaction with the health and wellness App and Guides. Survey data will be combined with the administrative data about App utilization.
This study will investigate the biological mechanisms linking sleep disruption by vibration and noise, and the development of cardiometabolic disease. In a laboratory sleep study, the investigators will play railway vibration of different levels during the night. The investigators will also measure objective sleep quality and quantity, cognitive performance across multiple domains, self-reported sleep and wellbeing outcomes, and blood samples. Blood samples will be analyzed to identify metabolic changes and indicators of diabetes risk in different nights. Identifying biomarkers that are impacted by sleep fragmentation will establish the currently unclear pathways by which railway vibration exposure at night can lead to the development of diseases in the long term, especially metabolic disorders including diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to pilot a randomized clinical trial designed to improve the sleep environments, sleep hygiene practices, and the duration and quality of sleep of children and parents in low-income families. It is hypothesized that child and parent sleep (assessed through subjective reports of sleep, sleep environments, sleep hygiene practices, and objective sleep data via sleep actigraphy collected with Fitbit watches) in the intervention group will improve between Week 2 (intervention session) and Week 4 (post-intervention session) as compared to child and parent sleep in the waitlist-control group.
The overall goal is to determine how a sleep extension intervention (increasing time in bed) in individuals who maintain less than 6.5 hours sleep per night affects their plasma ceramides and insulin sensitivity. Participants will undergo a randomized controlled trial, with sleep extension (intervention) and healthy lifestyle (control) groups. The sleep extension is designed to increase participant's time in bed by 2 hours per night. Alternatively, the control group will receive basic health information (e.g., physical activity, goal setting, and nutrition when eating out).
The research will be carried out as a randomized controlled experimental study to examine the effect of a nursing support program supported by a Web-based education program on the management of fatigue symptoms of patients who are under treatment and care in the Multiple Sclerosis clinic of a university hospital.Patients will receive 5 weeks of standard care. At the end of 5 weeks, they will enter a training program. After this online training program, which will be 5 weeks and 2 sessions per week, the change in the patients' fatigue, sleep quality and quality of life will be analyzed.
This will be a study looking at trying to change older adults' behavior in regard to good sleep hygiene practices. Investigators will assess the efficacy through subjective outcome measures and objective physiological markers of good sleep through data collected with wearable technology devices.
This study aims to investigate whether a four-week BBTi program can effectively improve chronic insomnia and reduce overall stress in middle-aged and elderly individuals.
Sleep is not simply the absence of wakefulness. Sleep is an active procedure, normally happening every night, and is absolutely vital. Good sleep is essential for our well-being. Survival without food can be further than without sleep. Work time and commuting time seem to affect total sleep time and night bedtime. Social and work obligation can, therefore, suppress sleep time. Sleep deprived individuals may be facing anxiety and depression symptoms. The aim of this study is to investigate the presence of anxiety and depression symptoms among adults with the use of the smartphone application Onar. Onar app will be used to gather information from wearable devices of the users including total sleep time, sleep efficiency, wake after sleep onset time. An established questionnaire (Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale/ HADS) will be used to quantify and detect the presence of anxiety and depression in the study population.
