Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to compare the difference of stress level and anxiety and depression between couples under home ovulation monitoring and hospital ultrasound monitoring.And whether it has a negative effect on the couple's sexual behavior.The participants were all healthy couples with fertility requirements from the reproductive Center of the First Hospital of Jilin University.The main questions it aims to answer are: - [question1] : Does ultrasound monitoring of ovulation increase stress levels and anxiety and depression in couples trying to conceive? - [question2] : Does ovulation monitoring affect couples' sexual function and satisfaction? Participants will be asked to fill out questionnaires three times over four menstrual cycles.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate stress biomarkers, subjective stress levels, and cognitive function in medical students. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does regular osteopathic manipulative treatment affect stress in medical students? Does regular osteopathic manipulative treatment affect cognitive function in medical students? Participants will be split into two groups, control and treatment, and undergo a designated protocol for six weeks. The treatment protocol will include weekly sessions of three OMT techniques: paraspinal inhibition, rib raising, and condylar decompression. Concurrently, participants' salivary cortisol levels will be collected weekly and analyzed using an Invitrogen ELISA Immunoassay Kit. Additionally, cognitive function will be assessed weekly via Lumosity, while stress levels are gauged using the College Student Stress Scale (CSSS) survey. Researchers will compare one cohort of medical students who receive weekly OMT and another cohort of medical students who have weekly check-ins without OMT to see if OMT can affect changes in stress biomarkers, subjective stress scales, and cognitive function.
A randomized controlled trial to assess the effectiveness of the brief mindfulness on teachers' perceived stress and their psychological well-being.
This study is a double blind, randomized controlled trail. Condition/disease: Psychological Stress treatment Intervention:Pharmacopuncture
Specific aims - To test the effects of a relaxation and guided imagery intervention with socioemotional learning content on a range of socioemotional, physiological, cognitive and academic outcomes of school-aged children, measured through self-reports, neuropsychological and physiological measures, as well as teachers and parent's reports.
Most of the over 32.7 million people in the U.S. who have special health, developmental, and mental health concerns have typically developing (TD) brothers and sisters who share high levels of involvement in their sibling's lives. Disability and health agencies lack effective tools to support the information and support needs of TD siblings and their families, in particular for ethnic minority and rural families. The aims of this proposal are to complete development and evaluation of the dual language SIBTime app, designed to build parents' and children's knowledge, skills, and engaging family routines to nurture TD siblings' (ages 3-6) social-emotional health and well-being.
The interaction between the gut microbiome, the intestinal barrier, and the host plays an important role in human health. The integrity of the intestinal barrier is essential to protect against translocation of food antigens and immunostimulatory microbial metabolites from the gut lumen. Accumulating studies show that stress may negatively affect the intestinal barrier function. In a previous study, the investigators developed the Leuven Prolonged Acute Stress Test (L-PAST), which combines physical (cold water), mental (arithmetic), and social (negative feedback) aspects of stress for a prolonged (2h) time. In the current study the investigators would like, as a first aim, to investigate whether the L-PAST 1) increases intestinal permeability compared to baseline intestinal permeability, and 2) whether a nutritional intervention can improve baseline intestinal permeability as well as intestinal permeability after exposure to the L-PAST in both healthy females and men. As a second aim of the present study, the investigators would like to investigate whether prebiotics and/or L-tryptophan can attenuate the cortisol response to stress. Lastly, as acute psychosocial stress impairs cognitive functions, the investigators would like as a third aim to investigate whether prebiotics and/or L-tryptophan supplementation may prevent these impairments.
In an implementation study, designed as a RCT in people with type 1 diabetes(T1D) and an elevated Pressure pain sensitivity of the chest bone(PPS) as indicative of dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANSD), to describe the effect of a selfcare programe on the following outcome measures: 1. PPS, and the effect on health risk factors associated to quality of life, physiology and metabolism. People acceptance of the program: Can T1D people comply with the program and integrate the program into their daily life? 2. The professional staff acceptance of the program: Does the staff comply to the program and does the program comply to the routines of the clinical department?
The activities described in this proposal are aimed at addressing health care provider stress and unconscious bias to improve quality of maternal health care, particularly related to the person-centered dimensions of care-i.e. care that is respectful and responsive to women's needs, preferences, and values. The investigators focus on health provider stress and unconscious bias because they are key drivers of poor-quality care that are often not addressed in interventions designed to improve quality of maternal health care. The investigators plan to (1) test the effectiveness of an intervention that targets provider stress and bias to improve PCMC; (2) assess the cost-effectiveness of CPIPE; (3) examine the mechanisms of impact of CPIPE on PCMC; and (3) assess impact of the CPIPE intervention on distal outcomes including maternal health seeking behavior and maternal and neonatal health.
