Introduction Mechanical neck pain has become prevalent among computer professionals possibly because of prolonged use. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between intensity, anthropometric metrics, cervical range motion, and related disabilities using advanced machine learning techniques. Method involved 75 professionals, comprising 27 men 48 women, aged 25 44 years, all whom reported following extended sessions. The utilized various tools, including visual analog scale (VAS)...
Aims: Aerobic exercise improves vascular endothelial function in people with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). There is minimal information available regarding health T2DM and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Thus, the primary aim of this secondary analysis was to determine whether a 16-week aerobic intervention could improve DPN. A explore relationship between changes flow-mediated dilation (FMD) number years since diagnosis Methods: We examined would used Doppler ultrasound assess...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Cerebral β-amyloid angiopathy (CAA) occurs when (Aβ) is deposited in the vascular media and adventitia. It a common pathology brains of older individuals has been linked to cognitive decline, but relatively little known about influence that CAA on clinical manifestation Alzheimer's disease (AD). The aim this retrospective analysis was quantify effect had initial AD-related change subsequent progression dementia....
We investigated the risk levels associated with diabetes mellitus. They were assessed based on whether anyone in their family had a history of diabetes. The data collected are measurements blood pressure, weight, height, and smoking habits, as well physical activity educational status. Based American Diabetes Association's (ADA) recommendations, questionnaire included assessment. was 76.3% among participants There is 41.1% chance those whose fathers diabetes, 39.3% mothers Additionally, who...
Purpose/Aim: Data from chronic stroke studies have reported reduced blood flow and vascular endothelial function in the stroke-affected limb. It is unclear whether these differences are present early after stroke. First, we investigated limb would be different healthy adults. Second, examined between-limb existed arm compared to non-affected arm. Last, tested was related pro-inflammatory markers that stroke.Vascular assessed by flow-mediated dilation (FMD) brachial artery within 72 h...
This study aims at describing academic self-efficacy in online learning and exploring the determinant factors of learners’ self-efficacy. In this cross-sectional survey-based study, 892 respondents voluntarily participated completed survey. Online was assessed using an questionnaire. The sociodemographic characteristics showed that 85% were female, 21% medical students, 13% postgraduate students. Most reported insufficient for time management, whereas 51% good technology. When considering...
Background: Early mobility (EM) is vital in the intensive care unit (ICU) to counteract immobility-related effects. A multidisciplinary approach key, as it requires precise initiation knowledge. However, physicians’ understanding of EM adult ICU settings remains unexplored. This study was conducted investigate knowledge and clinical competency physicians working ICUs toward EM. Methods: cross-sectional enrolled 236 assess their rigorously designed survey comprising 30 questions across...
[Purpose] To investigate physicians' attitudes, opinions and experiences towards physiotherapy services as well to identify the potential factors that may affect extent of utilization (based on beliefs) in Saudi Arabia (SA). [Subjects Methods] A cross-sectional study was conducted. [Results] total 108 respondents met inclusion criteria. The respondents' attitude slightly low (53.5%), while their indicated some important issues. For example, 50% them believed physiotherapists did not create a...
Abstract Background The positive effects of Pilates and slow-controlled breathing exercises on health are examined in different studies. purpose the study was to investigate 10-week equipment-based Pilates, exercises, a combination both heart rate variability (HRV), pulmonary function, body composition (BC) young adult healthy women with normal BMI. Methods Forty female participants were assigned either group (PG), exercise (BG), + (PBG), control groups (CG). Equipment-based consists...
Background/Objectives: Stroke survivors have a significantly increased likelihood of developing osteoporosis, condition characterized by weak and brittle bones as well an elevated risk bone fractures. However, previous studies on exercise intervention mostly been stroke who are able to walk. The objective this study was examine the effect walking health in non-ambulatory survivors. Methods: This pre- post-test enrolled group chronic They were instructed complete 8-week aerobic program, three...
The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) measures, maximal oxygen consumption (VO
The quarantine period in Saudi Arabia from May to June 2020 due the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic prevented many people engaging physical activity (PA), which may have had negative effects on their health. Therefore, it is important understand factors, barriers, and facilitators affecting PA of during quarantine. This cross-sectional study was conducted using an electronic survey that distributed adults between 18 69 years old. included demographic-related questions International...
Sleep apnea and diabetes mellitus (DM) negatively impact cardiovascular health. One important indicator of health is the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI). Either low ABI or high are signs peripheral vascular impairment. Impaired DM, together, might provoke sleep apnea; however, information regarding these relationships limited. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate association between ABI, DM status, severity obstructive in people Hispanic/Latino descent who diverse culture, environmental...
Clinical data point toward gender-based differences in COVID-19 severity. However, there is insufficient research examining whether gender predicts physical activity (PA) and fatigue severity patients recovering from COVID-19. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize the PA a cohort of infection measure extent which moderate relationship with fatigue.A cross-sectional survey was conducted Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The sample comprised over at least 3 months. Recovered were stratified into two...
