Filter by:The investigators developed a digital intervention that aims to help adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYAs) manage symptoms of depression. This tool includes daily mood tracking, a psychoeducational module about cancer and depression, four components that are based on evidence-based interventions for depression. The goal of this study is to evaluate the acceptability of procedures for a future trial in which the investigators will test which component or combination of components meaningfully contribute to improvements in depressive symptoms among AYAs. Additionally, the investigators will evaluate study feasibility as well as intervention acceptability, satisfaction, usability, and engagement.
This is a study aiming to investigate the effects of acute muscle fatigue on muscle properties, balance and foot plantar pressure in healthy young adults (having no chronic diseases or orthopaedic diseases and physically active). This study also aims to compare the effects of foot muscle fatigue and hip muscle fatigue on balance and foot plantar pressure. The exercises for ankle muscle fatigue are heel rise with bending your knee and heel raise without bending your knees. The exercise for hip muscle fatigue is a single-leg squat. Before and after completing these all exercises, the balance is evaluated with an isokinetic balance device, the foot plantar pressure is evaluated with a pedobarography device and finally, the muscle properties are evaluated with a myotonPro device. All assessment devices are non-invasive.
This study was planned considering that young people with smartphone addiction are depressed and their physical activity is significantly reduced. In this direction, our aim is to examine the relationship between smartphone use and physical activity among universities in the 18-25 age group, which uses technology extensively. Our results are to raise awareness of this prevention by uncovering the possibility that it may be the cause of smartphone use in young people.
Objectives: This study aims to explore families' representations and strategies about their teenagers or young adults involved in the radicalisation process and use these findings to build specific tools to help professionals provide family support.
Fertility is of great importance to young women with cancer. Concerns about the ability to become pregnant after cancer treatment may influence treatment decisions and fertility decision-making is challenging. Despite these challenges, there is a lack of fertility decision support tools. Our team developed the Begin Exploring Fertility Options, Risks and Expectations (BEFORE) decision aid for young breast cancer patients in Canada. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the BEFORE decision aid in hospital settings through a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial.
The current central dogma of long-term cognitive impairment after intensive care admission suggests an underlying neuroinflammatory dysregulation affecting neuronal function. This pathological process has not been fully elucidated and there has been little research into its genetic associations. Alzheimer's disease (AD) causes cognitive impairment through a process of abnormal beta amyloid deposition and neuronal death through localised activation of the innate immune system. It is the most prevalent disease affecting cognition. The Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is implicated in the progression of late-onset Alzheimer's disease and is a recognised neuroinflammatory modulator. It is possible that young individuals exposed to high levels of inflammation may experience an acceleration of this process. This study sets out to look for an association between APOE-∈4 possession and poor cognitive outcome after a major burn injury and intensive care admission.
