Filter by:Randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of vascular photobiomodulation on sleep quality, relaxation and stress when compared to placebo.
The aims of this study are to determine the types and severity of previously undiagnosed sleep deficiencies in otherwise healthy Somali Americans, apply a research framework to define psychosocial, behavioral, environmental, and biological mechanisms mediating sleep deficiencies in Somali Americans, and examine the relationship between sleep deficiencies and increased blood pressure in Somali Americans.
Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome is defined as a combination of obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) and daytime hypercapnia in arterial blood gas analysis (PaCO2 > 45 mmHg) without other pathologies that cause hypoventilation. Symptoms seen in individuals diagnosed with OHS are stated as a feeling of suffocation due to apnea, loud snoring, morning headache and excessive daytime sleepiness. Respiratory mechanics, respiratory muscle performance, pulmonary gas exchange, lung functions and exercise capacity parameters are adversely affected in patients. Early treatment is important so that these negative changes do not lead to worse outcomes. Weight control, bariatric surgery, pharmacological treatment and non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) are included in the treatment program of OHS patients. The effects of exercise on the treatment program of OHS patients are unknown. Considering all the studies in the literature, the primary purpose of this study is to evaluate aerobic and strength training on exercise capacity and sleep quality in patients with hypoventilation syndrome. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength, emotional state, body composition and quality of life parameters. In addition, the researchers believe that this study will form the basis for further scientific studies on OHS and exercise and will make an important contribution to the literature.
Sleep disorder is common in people going to plateau. Acupuncture and related techniques could be used for treatment of sleep disorder. In this trial the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation on sleep disorder in people going to plateau will be investigated.
The aims of this study are to compare 3 different treatments for circadian adjustment to a laboratory protocol which will mimic westward air travel across 8 time zones. One treatment will involve simply following the new schedule for 3 days. Another treatment will also involve exposure to bright light for 1 hour per day. A third treatment will involve exposure to bright light + exercise for 1 hour per day + consuming a melatonin tablet. Adjustment to the shifted schedule will be assessed by comparing measures of sleep, mood, mental performance, physical performance, and timing of melatonin across the 3 treatment conditions.
This clinical trial will compare home sleep apnea testing with the gold standard in-lab polysomnography in terms of 1) accuracy, 2) therapeutic decision-making, and 3) parent/child acceptability in children referred for evaluation of obstructive sleep apnea.
MIST+ is studying a nasal spray to see if it will reduce the need for surgery for snoring. Children aged 3-12 are invited to take part. Snoring affects up to 10% of children and can cause sleeping problems and concentration or behavioural issues in the daytime. Currently the most common treatment for snoring is surgery to remove the tonsils and/or adenoids, however many children wait a long time to see a specialist. This research is trying to find if nasal sprays can help children with snoring, and whether this can reduce the need for surgery.
SLeeP AID4 is a single-group, single-arm, Canada-wide, non-randomised, unblinded, in-home, observational study to prospectively collect and build a data set of natural sleep behaviour and physiology in maternal-fetal dyads (and bed partners, if applicable) in the third trimester of pregnancy in the home setting and subsequently investigate the feasibility of using computer vision technology (CVT) to monitor sleep during and across the third trimester of pregnancy in the home setting for research purposes by eliciting participants' attitudes toward CVT and training, validating, and testing a CVT model to accurately, unobtrusively, non-invasively, and objectively detect and quantify various sleep behaviours, disturbances, and disorders.
The main objective of this project is to study the diurnal variation of the effect of exercise on glycemic metabolism and fat oxidation in humans.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the therapeutic touch applied to the sleep patterns of individuals aged 65-85 years with chronic diseases who are treated in the Neurology Intensive Care Unit of Ankara City Hospital, taking into account the circadian cycle.The type of the research is the experimental model with pre-test and post-test control group.Ankara City Hospital has included the research population in the last year. It will consist of 1593 patients between the ages of 65-85 who are hospitalized in the Neurology Intensive Care Unit.Experimental and control groups will be created with simple randomization in randomization.The data were obtained from the socio-demographic characteristics form and the sleep pattern form developed by the researcher. will be collected with
