Prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its risk factors among newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus patients - A hospital-based cross-sectional study.

Context: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) raises the chance of cerebrovascular accidents and cardiovascular illness in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) individuals. Early identification of MetS allows for suitable prophylactic and treatment strategies to reduce the risks. Aim: To estimate the prevalence of MetS and its risk factors in T2DM individuals. Settings and Design: This cross-sectional study investigated MetS and its component's prevalence among newly diagnosed T2DM at the tertiary care hospital. Methods and Material: The study was conducted from January 2022 to December 2022 and included 300 participants above 18 years, with most being men (55%, 165), and using the World Health Organization (WHO) STEPS questionnaire for assessing selected risk factors. Along with blood glucose, different components of MetS were assessed, that is serum triglyceride (TG) level, serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level, blood pressure (BP) and waist circumference (WC), as per the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) criteria. Statistical Analysis Used: Data analysis includes mean and standard deviation (SD) for numerical variables with an unpaired t-test to compare means and percentage and proportions for categorical variables with the Chi-square test for the associations. Multivariate logistic regression was used for assessing the predictors of MetS. Results: The prevalence of components of MetS, that is obesity, hypertension (HTN), TG and HDL components, was 64.0% (192), 45.7% (137), 46.0% (138) and 30% (90), respectively. Overall, MetS was 57% (170). Moderate activity of 150 min/week, sitting/reclining, WC, diastolic BP, TG and HDL had a significant association with MetS. Conclusions: MetS was highly associated with newly diagnosed T2DM with obesity being the most common component.

Development and validation of a questionnaire to assess the implementation of physical education programs in Chinese junior high schools.

BACKGROUND: Students' physical fitness has always been the focus of attention of the Chinese government, and the school as an important way to improve students' physical fitness, there are many studies on the current status of the implementation of physical education in schools, and there are many studies that use self-made questionnaires to investigate the implementation of physical education in schools, but most of the studies do not adequately validate the self-made questionnaires, so the purpose of this study was to develop a questionnaire to assess the level of implementation of physical education programmes in Chinese junior secondary schools and to test its reliability and validity. METHOD: The content of the questionnaire was developed based on the content of Annex 1 of the Assessment Measures for Physical Education in Primary and Secondary Schools issued by the Ministry of Education of China in 2014 and was modified based on feedback from the expert panel and pre-test participants. The questionnaire was initially tested for validity by 5 expert reviewers, and then we collected data information from 350 participants and conducted exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to explore the factor structure of the initial version. One week later, 40 of the 350 participants were randomly selected to assess test-retest reliability. RESULTS: The I-CVI and KAPPA value analysis results of the expert review results show that the questionnaire has extremely high reliability and consistency among experts. EFA results indicate that the five dimensions of this questionnaire are highly reliable. In the test-retest reliability, the Pearson correlation coefficients of the initial test data and the retest data of each dimension are all greater than 0.7, and the significance probability values are all less than 0.05, reaching the significance level, the results show that the questionnaire has good stability. CONCLUSIONS: This study concluded that the 5 dimensions and 38 items of this questionnaire had high reliability and validity and could be used as a preliminary tool to measure the implementation level of physical education programs in junior high schools in China. However, future research should explore the potential need for adjustment to suit different regions and cultures.

Standardizing Dietary Recall: A Necessity for the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program.

This report explores the 24-hour dietary recall (24HDR) form used for the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP). Dietary supplement use, amount of money spent on food, time being physically active, portion size consumed, foods reported by meals, and preparation of the meal were common components collected among 61 EFNEP programs. Components not included were instructions for the peer educator, use of food models/measuring cups, examples of foods/beverages, time food/beverages were consumed, color coding, and a prompt to review what was written. A standardized 24-hour dietary recall form with training protocols is recommended to uphold the integrity of data collection.

Unveiling food safety knowledge and practices among pet owners in Lebanon.

Owning pets offers various potential health benefits; however, it can be associated with gastrointestinal illnesses due to poor food safety knowledge and practices. This study aimed to evaluate the level of food safety knowledge and practices among pet owners in Lebanon, exploring the association between their knowledge/practices and socio-demographic characteristics. The participants included 300 pet owners, representing various genders, ages, educational levels, educational backgrounds, and incomes. They completed a questionnaire of 72 food handling practices and knowledge questions related to preparation, cross-contamination, storage and hygiene. In parallel, 300 non-pet owners with comparable sociodemographic characteristics to pet owners (control group) completed the questionnaire. On average, food safety knowledge scores were 62.1 ± 14.9% and 58.7 ± 15.5% among pet and non-pet owners, respectively, and the difference was significant (p = 0.05). On the other hand, mean food safety practice scores were 41.3 ± 14.8% and 40.4 ± 15.3% among pet and non-pet owners, respectively, and the difference was not significant (p = 0.41). In the food safety knowledge part, non-pet owners who were young, high income, university graduate, and from health-related majors scored significantly (p < 0.05) higher, while among pet-owners, only participants with a university degree and from health-related majors scored significantly (p < 0.05) higher, in terms of knowledge. On the other hand, In the food safety practices part, non-pet owners who were young, high income, and university graduates scored significantly (p < 0.05) higher, while among pet-owners, only young and high-income participants scored significantly (p < 0.05) higher. These results highlight the need for ongoing educational initiatives to improve food safety practices among both pet owners in Lebanon. The study suggests that targeted educational programs should be developed, considering specific socio-demographic characteristics, to enhance overall food safety awareness and practices among the population.

It was concluded that the education program applied to typically developing children had a positive impact on their attitudes and behaviors toward their siblings with intellectual disabilities.

Evaluation of a Multi-Site Cancer Health Disparities Research Training Program for Underrepresented Undergraduate and Medical Students.

Diversifying the biomedical research workforce is crucial for eliminating cancer health disparities. To address this need, Moffitt Cancer Center and Louisiana State University Health Sciences formed the Southeast Partnership for Improving Research and Training in Cancer Health Disparities (SPIRIT-CHD). A key component of SPIRIT-CHD is the Cancer Research Education Program (CREP), designed to train underrepresented undergraduate and medical students in biomedical science research. The CREP featured an 8-week summer internship with a web-based curriculum, community outreach, and mentored research experiences. Three cohorts (n = 39) completed the CREP. Students were evaluated before and after the internship using the Goal Attainment Scale (GAS), Science Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument (STEBI), and Research Appraisal Inventory (RAI), modified to assess CREP outcomes. These scales measured students' intentions to pursue cancer research careers, self-efficacy in communicating scientific information, and perceived research abilities. Paired test results showed significant increases (p < 0.001) in scores across the scales (GAS, STEBI, RAI) pre- and post-training. Trainees reported heightened intentions to pursue cancer research careers (GAS; mean increase of 5.3, p < 0.001) and greater self-efficacy in relaying scientific information (STEBI; mean increase of 9.2, p < 0.001). They also showed increased self-confidence in conducting research (RAI; mean increase of 58.2, p < 0.001). These findings demonstrate the program's success in fostering interest in cancer research careers and enhancing research confidence. Results support the development of programs like CREP to positively impact the academic and professional trajectories of underrepresented students, ultimately creating a more diverse and inclusive biomedical research workforce equipped to address health disparities.

A combined diabetes and continuous glucose monitoring education program for adults with type 2 diabetes.

Objective: The lack of descriptions for education programs in studies evaluating the efficacy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) compared to blood glucose monitoring (BGM) for individuals with T2DM makes it difficult to compare results across trials. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a new education program for adults with insulin-treated T2DM and HbA1c ≥58 mmol/mol (7.5 %) initiating CGM. Methods: A 3-h education program was created to provide information on diabetes self-management and CGM or BGM based on international guidelines and a pre-evaluation based on user needs assessment. Questionnaires were used to post-evaluate participant-rated benefits from the program. Results: Seven individuals attended a user needs assessment of the program and 96 participated in the final education program (61.5 % men, mean age 61 (59.5;63) years, mean diabetes duration 18.2 (16.9;19.5) years, and median HbA1c 69 (63-78)mmol/mol (8.5 (7.9-9.3)%). Benefit from this program was rated good/very good by 95.5 % with no statistically significant difference between glucose monitoring groups. Conclusions: This study presents a new well-received education program for T2DM for both the CGM and BGM group. Innovation: The description of the development process and the education provided for both glucose monitoring groups may be useful for CGM initiation in clinics and trials.

Kenyan adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increase diabetic knowledge and self-efficacy and decrease hemoglobina1c levels post-educational program.

Introduction: Literature supports the relationship between increased diabetic knowledge and improved health outcomes among individuals with Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In Kenya, knowledge gaps within the at-risk population still exist about the symptoms, complications, and management strategies of T2DM, making it challenging to achieve the required personal and community health levels. The project's objective was to determine whether a structured educational intervention for patients in Eldoret, Kenya, would increase diabetic knowledge and self-efficacy and reduce HbA1c levels. Method: We utilized an experimental study with a convenience sample of 143 participants systematically grouped into control and experimental. The experimental group only received a structured educational intervention based on the health belief model. Pre- and post-intervention data for diabetic knowledge, self-efficacy, and HbA1c were analyzed using the independent T and ANOVA tests. Results: We observed significant between-group differences for diabetic knowledge (t (116) = 7.22, p<0.001), self-efficacy t (96)=5.323, p<0.001; and HbA1c level t (121) =-2.87, p =.003. We also observed significant within-group differences for diabetic knowledge, t (12.6), p<0.001); self-efficacy t (5.32), p<.001); and HbA1c, t (4.4), p<0.001, in the experimental group only. Conclusions: This study reveals the effect of a structured education intervention in increasing diabetic knowledge and self-efficacy while reducing HbA1c levels in T2DM patients in Eldoret, Kenya.

Development and Effects of Adult Nursing Education Programs Using Virtual Reality Simulations.

A virtual-reality-simulation-based nursing education program incorporating an information processing model helps nursing students develop their learned knowledge as nursing behavior and develop their ability to cope with complex clinical challenges. The purpose of this study is to develop a nursing education program using an immersive virtual reality simulation app for clinical situations based on an information processing model and identify the effects. A non-quantitative control group pretest-post-test design was employed. The programs were developed using the ADDIE model and an information processing model. In order to verify the effectiveness of the program, six adult nursing learning issues were taught to the experimental group over 6 weeks. The nursing education program in this study provides comprehensive experiential learning through advanced virtual simulation, significantly enhancing nursing students' performance confidence, critical-thinking abilities, and problem-solving skills across a wide range of clinical scenarios. By repeatedly engaging with diverse learning topics related to adult nursing, this program not only equips students with essential practical skills but also contributes to the overall improvement of patient safety and the quality of medical care.

Improvement of knowledge following diabetes self-management education with respect to socioeconomic status: A retrospective cohort study among type 2 diabetes in Eastern India.

Introduction: We assessed the baseline knowledge and the improvement and retention of knowledge after attending diabetes self-management education (DSME) programs with respect to different socioeconomic status (SES). We also looked into the change in body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and glycemic parameters after attending the DSME sessions. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective, cohort study carried out via chart review based on data collected from manual or electronic medical records (EMR) and questionnaire responses of 160 adult patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who attended two DSME sessions with a gap of at least six months. Results: Baseline knowledge on diabetes was uniform (P = 0.06), irrespective of differences in SES, and DSME sessions significantly improved the knowledge in all socioeconomic classes (P value < 0.05 in each SES group). However, SES did have a significant influence on the finally acquired knowledge of diabetes as was evident from the final score after attending two DSME sessions. A significant number of patients (48.1%) from our cohort either improved or retained their knowledge of diabetes over a mean follow-up of 15.5 months. The BMI of our cohort was significantly reduced from baseline to final follow-up (P = 0.016). Conclusion: DSME sessions were effective in improving knowledge and awareness among T2D patients, irrespective of socioeconomic classes in Eastern India. The acquired knowledge from DSME sessions was retained over a long time.

The number of older adults globally is expected to increase from 420 million in 2000 to 974 million in 2030. In 2017. The objectives of the study were to assess the existing level of knowledge regarding health promotion strategies and to determine the effectiveness of health education program on knowledge regarding health promotion among the elderly in old age home. Materials and Methods: The study employed one-group pretest and posttest preexperimental design without a control group. The sample size of 50 was selected using a non-probability convenient sampling technique. Baseline data were collected by a structured questionnaire, and a structured teaching program was given for 2 weeks, and after 15 days, a posttest was conducted with the same tool. Statistical Analysis: Data collected were analyzed by using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The knowledge score increased significantly from baseline. The mean score of the pretest was 18.38, the mean score of the posttest was 21.78, the mean improvement was 3.40, and the paired value obtained for knowledge was 17.36, which was found significant at 0.05 level (P < 0.05). There was a significant improvement in the knowledge regarding health promotion strategies in the geriatric population. Conclusions: The result of the study concluded that health education program was effective in improving the knowledge regarding health promotion strategies in the geriatric population.

Alliance for Scientific Autism Intervention: System Components and Outcome Data from High-Quality Service Delivery Organizations.

Promoting excellence in autism intervention is arguably more urgent than ever for the field of applied behavior analysis. To fulfill this objective, autism agencies must operate from validated program systems and do so with fidelity. Program components include, but are not limited to, staff training and evaluation of clinical skills, functional personnel roles designed to promote positive outcomes for those served, and professional staff-communication-skill repertoires. Data on client outcomes must be tied to implementation of core program variables; and, contingencies between the data on client outcomes and staff performance must exist. Furthermore, these contingencies must be yoked across members of the organization to ensure a sustainable and effective program model. Finally, data on consumer satisfaction must be collected and used to evaluate program components and agency practices. Members of the Alliance for Scientific Autism Intervention have implemented key program-wide systems based upon the work of McClannahan and Krantz Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 26, 589-596 (1993) for decades and across various agency cultures. Data collected by six independent educational agencies on client outcomes, program implementation, and consumer feedback for a 10-year time span demonstrate the sustainability of the model and support the importance of key organizational systems and the relationship between implementation of the model and high-quality outcomes for individuals with autism.

Nutritional support team intervention in surgical ICUs and its effect on nutrition delivery and quality in critically ill patients.

RATIONAL: Critically ill surgical patients pose one of the greatest challenges in achieving nutritional goals. Several published papers have demonstrated clear benefits when nutrition support (NS) is managed by a multidisciplinary nutrition support team (NST). We hypothesized that implementing a NST in a surgical intensive care unit (ICU) would increase the number of patients achieving their nutritional goals. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Multicenter "BEFORE & AFTER" study. In the BEFORE phase, an audit of the previous state of NS was conducted in three ICUs without a NST. INTERVENTION: Implementation of a NST and protocol. In the AFTER phase, a new audit of NS was conducted. Continuous variables (presented as mean ± SD or median Q1-Q3) were tested using the t-test and Mann-Whitney U test. Categorical variables (presented as frequencies and percentages) were assessed using the chi-square test. A binomial logistic regression model was performed, with independent variables introduced using a stepwise forward method. A difference was considered to be significant with a two-sided P-value <0.05. Statistical analysis was conducted using IBM-SPSS 26. RESULTS: A total of 83 patients were included in the BEFORE phase, and 85 in the AFTER phase. The latter group showed a higher frequency of nutritional risk and malnutrition (SGA B+C odds ratio 2.314, 95% CI 1.164-4.600). Laparoscopy was more frequently utilized as a surgical technique in the AFTER phase. No differences were observed in ICU and hospital LOS or 90 days' survival rates. Two variables remained independent factors to predict NS achievement: NST implementation (odds ratio 3.582, 95% CI 1.733-7.404), and surgical technique (odds ratio 3.231, 95% CI 1.312-7.959). CONCLUSION: NST positively impacts the chance of achieving NS goals in critically ill surgical patients.

Pharmacists' Behavioral Changes after Attending a Multi-Prefectural Palliative Care Education Program.

Central to the pharmacist's role in palliative care is symptom management through direct participation in patient care and the provision of optimal pharmacotherapy to support patient outcomes. Consequently, palliative care requires extensive knowledge and action for patients with cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate how pharmacists' behavior changed after attending a palliative care educational program. We conducted a web-based questionnaire survey examining the behavior of pharmacists regarding palliative care before participating in the program, two months after participating in the program, and eight months after participating in the program to determine their behavior and changes over time. For all questions, scores were higher at two and eight months after attending the program than before attending the program (p < 0.05). In addition, no significant difference was observed between two and eight months after attending the program for any question (p = 0.504-1.000). The knowledge gained from the educational program was used to repeatedly intervene with patients with cancer in order to address the various symptoms they experienced and maintain their behavior. The proven effectiveness of this program serves as a stepping stone for nationwide rollout across Japan's 47 prefectures.

Enhancing Health and Empowerment: Assessing the Satisfaction of Underprivileged Rural Women Participating in a Functional Literacy Education Program in Kailali District, Nepal.

Women's empowerment and health literacy are essential for fostering community well-being. Empowering women through education and diverse training plays a crucial role in ensuring their prosperity and overall health. This study investigates the satisfaction and experiences of underprivileged rural mothers participating in a functional literacy education program in the Kailali district, Nepal. We assess participants' perceptions of program effectiveness, examining training content, facilities, and trainers while exploring menstrual hygiene practices and maternal health awareness. Through convenience sampling, 141 underprivileged women from five rural villages near Tikapur were selected from literacy centers run by Mahima Group. Utilizing structured questionnaires and statistical analyses, including descriptive analyses, Spearman's rho correlation, and Pearson's chi-square test, we found that 65.2% of participants expressed high satisfaction levels. Moreover, 96.5% found the program highly effective, with 97.9% reporting improved literacy skills and 96.5% demonstrating increased awareness of menstrual hygiene practices. Additionally, 97.2% agreed that the program enhanced maternal and child health knowledge. Significant correlations were observed among the training course, facilities, trainers, and overall training perception. In line with this, significant associations were found between age groups (p = 0.003) and geographical areas (p = 0.023) with satisfaction levels with the literacy program. These results underscore the satisfaction of participants within the literacy program and its impact on their lives, and advocates for its broader implementation to empower marginalized communities for sustainable development.

Measuring the Complexity of Self-Regulated Learning and Academic Challenges for Adolescents in Canada.

Research that uses self-report measures to examine the complexity of self-regulated learning (SRL) and academic challenges for adolescents is limited. This study examined the psychometric property of the Self-Regulated Learning Profile and Self-Diagnostic (SRL-PSD) instrument and addressed the multi-components of SRL and academic challenges for adolescents. Participants were 358 adolescents from a Canadian middle school. The subscales of SRL-PSD were administered to students through LimeSurvey during a 25-min instructional session over two days. Results demonstrated the SRL-PSD was a reliable and valid self-report instrument to measure adolescents' SRL practices and academic challenges. Also, all types of SRL practices and academic challenges were significantly intercorrelated. Additionally, all types of SRL practices were positively associated with school engagement, whereas all types of academic challenges were negatively associated with school engagement. Overall, this study provides a validated self-report measure for educators and researchers to examine adolescents' SRL practices and academic challenges.

Informed Decision-Making with and for People with Dementia-Efficacy of the PRODECIDE Education Program for Legal Representatives: A Randomized Controlled Trial (PRODECIDE-RCT) and Process Evaluation.

Legal representatives take a major role in healthcare decisions with and for people with dementia, but only a minority has a qualification in this field. The aim was to evaluate the efficacy of the PRODECIDE education program for legal representatives. In a prospective randomized controlled trial, legal representatives (volunteers and professionals, representing at least one person with dementia) were allocated (1:1 computer-generated block randomization) to the intervention (PRODECIDE education program) and control (standard care) groups. The primary outcome measure was knowledge, operationalized as the understanding of decision-making processes and in setting realistic expectations. Only data entry and analyses were blinded. A process evaluation in a mixed methods design was performed. We enrolled 218 legal representatives, and 216 were included in the primary analysis (intervention n = 109, control n = 107). The percentage of correct answers in the knowledge test post intervention was 69.0% in the intervention and 43.4% in the control group (difference 25.6%; CI 95%, 21.3 to 29.8; p < 0.001). In the comparison of professional and voluntary representatives, professionals had 13.6% (CI 95%, 8.0 to 19.2; p < 0.001) more correct answers. The PRODECIDE education program can improve the knowledge of legal representatives, an important prerequisite for evidence-based, informed decision-making.

Determinants and Factors of Physical Activity After Oncology Treatments (DEFACTO) in Metropolitan France: Protocol of a Mixed Methods Study and Intervention.

BACKGROUND: While the scientific community widely recognizes the benefits of physical activity (PA) in oncology supportive care, cancer survivors who have undergone chemo- or radio-immunotherapy treatments struggle to meet PA recommendations. This underscores the importance of identifying factors influencing active lifestyle adoption and maintenance and proposing a multilevel model (micro-, meso-, and macrolevel) to better understand facilitators and barriers. Currently, no socioecological model explains an active lifestyle in the posttreatment phase of breast, colorectal, prostate, and lung cancers. OBJECTIVE: The objective is to identify factors influencing an active lifestyle in cancer survivorship and assess the feasibility of an individualized program targeting an active lifestyle. The objectives will be addressed in 3 stages. Stage 1 aims to elucidate factors associated with the active lifestyle of cancer survivors. Stage 2 involves developing an explanatory model based on previously identified factors to create a tailored health education program for an active lifestyle after oncology treatments. Stage 3 aims to evaluate the feasibility and potential effects of this personalized health education program after its national implementation. METHODS: First, the exploration of factors influencing PA (stage 1) will be based on a mixed methods approach, using an explanatory sequential design and multilevel analysis. The quantitative phase involves completing a questionnaire from a socioecological perspective. Subsequently, a subset of respondents will engage in semistructured interviews to aid in interpreting the quantitative results. This phase aims to construct a model of the factors influencing an active lifestyle and develop an individualized 12-week program based on our earlier findings (stage 2). In stage 3, we will implement our multicenter, multimodal program for 150 physically inactive and sedentary cancer survivors across metropolitan France. Program feasibility will be evaluated. Measured PA level by connected device and multidimensional variables such as declared PA and sedentary behaviors, PA readiness, motivation, PA preferences, PA knowledge and skills, and barriers and facilitators will be assessed before and during the program and 52 weeks afterward. RESULTS: The institutional review board approved the mixed methods study (phase 1) in April 2020, and the intervention (phase 3) was approved in March 2022. Recruitment and data collection commenced in April 2022, with intervention implementation concluded in May 2023. Data collection and full analysis are expected to be finalized by July 2024. CONCLUSIONS: The Determinants and Factors of Physical Activity After Oncology Treatments (DEFACTO) study seeks to enhance our understanding, within our socioecological model, of factors influencing an active lifestyle among cancer survivors and to assess whether a tailored intervention based on this model can support an active lifestyle.
