Aim. The aim of this paper is to report an investigation the effects soft music on sleep quality in older community‐dwelling men and women Taiwan. Background. Sleep a complex rhythmic state that may be affected by ageing process. Few studies have focused music, non‐pharmacological method improving adults. Method. A randomized controlled trial was used with two‐group repeated measures design. Sixty people aged 60–83 years difficulty sleeping were recruited through community leaders screened...
Currently, targeting the autophagic pathway is regarded as a promising new strategy for cancer drug discovery. Here, we screened North China Pharmaceutical Group Corporation's pure compound library of microbial origin using GFP-LC3B-SKOV3 cells and identified elaiophylin novel autophagy inhibitor. Elaiophylin promotes autophagosome accumulation but blocks flux by attenuating lysosomal cathepsin activity, resulting in SQSTM1/p62 various cell lines. Moreover, destabilizes lysosomes indicated...
Finely tuned mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling is important for cancer cell survival. Perturbations that push cells out of the MAPK fitness zone result in death. Previously, a screen North China Pharmaceutical Group Corporation's pure compound library microbial origin, we identified elaiophylin as an autophagy inhibitor. Here, demonstrated new role inducing excessive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, ER-derived cytoplasmic vacuolization, and consequent paraptosis by...
We investigated the effects of relaxation, music, and combination relaxation music on postoperative pain, across between two days activities (ambulation rest) ambulation each day. This secondary analysis a randomized controlled trial was conducted from 1995 to 1997.After surgery, patients do not always receive sufficient relief opioids may have undesired side-effects. More complete (10-30%) found recently with adjuvant interventions their combination. Comparison treatments been examined...
Abstract Aim The purpose was to examine the effects of non‐commercial music on quality sleep and relaxation indices, including heart rate, mean arterial pressure, respiratory rate in patients intensive care units. Background There is currently insufficient scientific knowledge for critically ill patients. Design A randomized controlled trial. Methods Between January–December 2010, 28 aged 39–78 years were randomly assigned control groups. Participants groups listened 45 minutes at nocturnal...
The research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of cupping therapy (CT) in changes on skin surface temperature (SST) for relieving chronic neck and shoulder pain (NSP) among community residents. A single-blind experimental design constituted sixty subjects with self-perceived NSP. were randomly allocated two groups. group received CT at SI 15, GB 21, LI 15 acupuncture points, control no intervention. Pain was assessed using SST, visual analog scale (VAS), blood pressure (BP). main...
lai h.-l. & li y.-m. (2011) The effect of music on biochemical markers and self-perceived stress among first-line nurses: a randomized controlled crossover trial. Journal Advanced Nursing67(11), 2414–2424. Abstract Aim. aim this study was to examine the effects indices association between preference stress. Background. Although clinical studies have demonstrated effectiveness stress, results been inconsistent. At time writing, no known publications had investigated preferred workers in...
Resilience has been associated with psychological adaptation to many threatening life events, but previous studies have rarely analysed the integrated relationships among demographic and disease characteristics various health outcomes in Taiwan. This study examined associations factors, characteristics, resilience, coping styles adverse outcomes, including anxiety depressive symptoms sleep disorders.A descriptive, cross-sectional design was used. Data from a convenience sample of 175...
Objectives. The purpose of this randomised investigator‐blind controlled trial is to examine the effects music on state anxiety and physiological indices among patients undergoing root canal treatment. Design. Randomised trial. Methods. Purposive sampling was used recruit 44 adult subjects. subjects were randomly assigned treatment control group. There 22 in each Subjects group listened selected sedative using headphones throughout procedure. worn but without music. Using a repeated measures...
The aim of this study was to understand the factors related intention leave their job among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses in eastern Taiwan and make between-group comparisons between an stay as well predict influencing that affect ICU staff nurses' leave.Nurses' may have important impact on actual turnover nurses. issue has always been concern nursing executives. Only limited empirical studies area investigated Asian culture context particularly region.A cross-sectional predictive...
This study determined the prevalence of and factors associated with insomnia in rotating-shift nurses. A two-stage, cross-sectional, hospital-based was conducted eastern Taiwan. Participants were randomly-sampled, nurses (n = 661), ranging age from 21 to 62 years, a mean 31.86 (standard deviation 8.09). Insomnia disorder identified using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Nurses completed self-reported Index, together other questionnaires designed by researchers for purpose study. The 59% 390)....
In Brief Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular diseases are the number 1 cause of death globally. Cardiac catheterization is a key step in diagnosis management cardiovascular diseases. Decreasing stress cardiac factor improving patients' well-being. The aim study was to explore effect music on psychophysiological indices patients awaiting examination. Methods: Using 2-group repeated-measures design, 54 subjects aged 47 70 years scheduled for examination were recruited. randomly assigned...
Although ovarian cancer, a gynecological malignancy, has the highest fatality rate, it still lacks highly specific biomarkers, and differential diagnosis of masses remains difficult to determine for gynecologists. Our study aimed obtain cancer-specific protein candidates from circulating small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) develop panel cancer screening masses. In our study, sEVs derived serum healthy controls patients with cystadenoma were investigated proteomic profile. discovery cohort,...
