The document discusses the history and activities of the Quality of Life Department (QLD) within the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC). It details how QLD was established in 1993 to centralize and professionalize quality of life assessments in EORTC clinical trials. Over the years, QLD has developed standardized quality of life questionnaires, trained collaborators, monitored compliance, and disseminated findings to improve cancer patients' quality of life. A key trial showed that adding temozolomide chemotherapy to radiation therapy improved survival and did not negatively impact quality of life for glioblastoma patients.

This document summarizes a study that evaluated the effects of an after-school programming called Get Out Get Active! on body mass index (BMI), body composition, and activity levels of students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The study found no significant changes in BMI or body composition but saw significant increases in daily steps for younger grades. It concluded that one day a week of after-school activity may not be enough to significantly impact childhood obesity rates and more parental involvement could help improve programs. Future studies with longer durations are recommended.
Weight Control And Healthy Eating for Women in Singapore
This document summarizes a research study on weight control and healthy eating among female undergraduates in the National University of Singapore. The study found that over 67% of female undergraduates were controlling their weight, primarily through exercise and dietary changes. While intention to control weight was positively correlated with attitude, subjective norms, and self-efficacy, subjective norms had the strongest relationship. There was a positive correlation between intention and attitude towards healthy eating but a negative correlation between intention and frequency of healthy eating practices. The findings provide insight into weight control behaviors and perceptions among female university students.

The study surveyed 198 Greek students aged 15-17 years on their physical activity levels using the stages of change model. The majority (63%) were physically active in stages 4 or 5, with 53% in stage 5 having maintained an active lifestyle for over 6 months. Boys showed higher activity levels than girls at 75% versus 54%. Younger students (1st grade) had higher activity levels than older students (78% versus 50% for 3rd grade). Thus, inactivity seemed more pronounced among girls and older students. The researchers concluded that physical activity programs and services should emphasize girls and older students more prone to inactivity.

Ui in firness_instrcutors_2011
This study investigated the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) among female group fitness instructors, including yoga and Pilates teachers, in Norway. The key findings were:
1) 26.3% of the 685 female instructors reported experiencing UI, with most reporting stress UI that occurred during physical activity or exercise.
2) Yoga and Pilates instructors had a similar prevalence of UI to other fitness instructors, with 25.9% reporting UI.
3) Older instructors and those with longer teaching careers had a significantly higher prevalence of UI, while use of oral contraceptives was protective against UI.
Undergraduate Research Project
This study examined the relationship between academic performance, as measured by GPA, and lifestyle factors such as physical activity, sleep, work, and study habits in college students. A survey of 253 students found a significant positive relationship between GPA and hours worked per week. There were also strong trends toward higher GPAs being associated with more hours studied per week and greater use of the student recreation center. However, the study found no significant relationship between GPA and the amount of physical activity or exercise reported. The limitations included a small sample size and potential recall bias in self-reported surveys.

Psychosocial aspect of bariatric surgery
1) This study examined changes in employment impairment and productivity in 164 patients one year after bariatric surgery.
2) It found significant reductions in work impairment and improvements in work productivity, as well as improved quality of life and reduced depression and anxiety symptoms.
3) Pre-surgery depression, anxiety, and quality of life scores were significant predictors of changes in work outcomes after surgery, but a history of psychiatric illness was not a predictor. Patients with greater pre-surgery work impairment and psychopathology experienced the greatest employment improvements.

The study sought to determine the extent to which the usage of social media in the marketing of agricultural products in South West Nigeria can enhance farmers turnover. It employed the survey research design to collect data with the help of a structured questionnaire to elicit information from respondents selected from six 6 south western states. Research data were analysed using structural equation modelling. The results showed that the use of social media WhatsApp and Facebook in marketing of agricultural products significantly enhances farmers turnover. The managerial implication is that use of Whatsapp and Facebook in the marketing of agricultural products for the enhancement of farmers’ turnover was found to have significant influence on the enhancement in farmers’ turnover from agricultural products. Policy makers in government should provide the enabling environment for the telecommunication companies to enhance their reach by installing their facilities across the length and breadth of the country so that the network coverage will be strong at all times so that the benefits of social media usage will not be constrained.

SCCHN & Weight Poster
The document describes a study that retrospectively analyzed patient information from 25 individuals diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the head/neck who were treated with radiation therapy over 5 weeks. Weight change over this period was calculated and statistically analyzed to examine average weight loss and potential risk factors. While results did not reach statistical significance, average weight loss was 3.12% (2.38 kg) over 5 weeks. Female gender and oral tumor site were identified as potential risk factors for greater weight loss.
Effects of Virtual Reality with Cerebral Palsy Children
This document summarizes a study that investigated the effects of virtual reality (VR) physiotherapy on balance in children with cerebral palsy. The study hypothesized that VR would have no additional effects beyond conventional physiotherapy in improving balance. The study involved 12 children who received either conventional therapy alone or conventional therapy plus VR games for 6 weeks. Results found no significant differences in balance improvements between the two groups, supporting the hypothesis that VR provided no additional benefits beyond conventional therapy alone for balance in children with cerebral palsy.

1) The study examined relationships between sleep patterns, self-reported academic performance measures, and demographic/lifestyle factors in 50 college students.
2) Results found that lower sleep quality was associated with lower academic performance, with most students reporting less than 8 hours of sleep per night and feeling groggy.
3) Female students had higher GPAs than male students on average, and students were more likely to drop varsity sports as they neared graduation. While some relationships between sleep and academic performance were observed, the hypothesis that less sleep directly causes lower performance was not supported.
Fit Bit Poster-36x48inches
This study examined the feasibility of using Fitbit Flex activity trackers in a 7-week walking program for 12 individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD). Participants received weekly step count goals and meetings to discuss physical activity. Most participants increased daily step counts, and reported improvements in performance and satisfaction with activities. While no changes in body composition were found, participants identified the Fitbit, step count increases, and praise as motivators for physical activity. Medication side effects were the primary barrier reported. The study demonstrates that wearable trackers may help track and encourage walking in individuals with SSD.

This study analyzed data from 316 children referred to the W82GO obesity treatment program. Key findings include:
- 55% of participants who completed exercise testing were classified as hypertensive or pre-hypertensive.
- Participants had significantly lower cardiorespiratory fitness levels compared to studies of other obese children, putting them at increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
- The majority of children presented with severe obesity and impaired cardiovascular health, demonstrating the need for obesity treatment programs to also address reducing cardiovascular risk factors.

Long term benefit of microbiota transfer therapy on autism symptoms and gut m...BARRY STANLEY 2 fasd
Many studies have reported abnormal gut microbiota in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), suggesting a link between gut microbiome and autism-like behaviors.
Modifying the gut microbiome is a potential route to improve gastrointestinal (GI) and behavioral symptoms in children with ASD, and fecal microbiota transplant could transform the
dysbiotic gut microbiome toward a healthy one by delivering a large number of commensal microbes from a healthy donor. We previously performed an open-label trial of Microbiota Transfer Therapy (MTT) that combined antibiotics, a bowel cleanse, a stomach-acid suppressant, and fecal microbiota transplant, and observed significant improvements in GI symptoms, autism-related symptoms, and gut microbiota. Here, we report on a follow-up with the same 18 participants two years after treatment was completed. Notably, most improvements in GI symptoms were maintained, and autism-related symptoms improved even more after the end of treatment. Important changes in gut microbiota at the end of treatment remained at follow-up, including significant increases in bacterial diversity and relative abundances of Bifidobacteria and Prevotella. Our observations demonstrate the longterm safety and efficacy of MTT as a potential therapy to treat children with ASD who have GI problems, and warrant a double-blind, placebo- controlled trial in the future.Apa Style
This study examined the effects of short-term food deprivation on concentration and perseverance in undergraduate students. Participants were deprived of food for either 0, 12, or 24 hours before completing a concentration task and perseverance puzzle task. Food deprivation had no significant effect on concentration scores. However, those in the 12-hour deprivation group spent significantly less time on the perseverance task than the control and 24-hour groups, suggesting short-term deprivation may impact some cognitive functions but not others. The researchers speculate this may be due to hunger or motivation levels influencing perseverance after 12 hours of deprivation.
The prevalence and correlates of low back pain in adults
This study examined the prevalence and correlates of low back pain in adults in Southern India. A total of 804 adults (401 men and 403 women) aged 20 years and older participated in the study. The key findings were:
1. The overall prevalence of low back pain was 40.7%, with the prevalence being higher in women (52.9%) compared to men (28.4%).
2. Height, weight, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, and BMI were not associated with low back pain in both men and women.
3. In women, those who had undergone caesarean sections or sterilization were more likely to experience low back pain.
4. Both men and women
Freshman Physical Activity Program
This document outlines a proposed intervention to increase physical activity among freshmen at Kansas State University. The intervention includes physical activity classes, laboratory sessions teaching exercises, and providing exercise kits for dorms. An evaluation plan involves initial and final surveys of freshmen to assess changes in physical activity, as well as monthly process surveys to track program participation and feedback. The goal is to increase physical activity knowledge and self-efficacy, leading to higher physical activity levels and potential long-term health benefits for students.
024 treating depression and depression-like behavior with physical activity
This article reviews studies examining the neuroimmunomodulatory effects of physical activity on the brain in depression and depression-like behaviors. The review finds that physical activity enhances beneficial and reduces detrimental effects on the neuroimmune system. Specifically, physical activity appears to increase anti-inflammatory cytokines and factors while decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and factors. The effects are thought to occur both centrally in the brain and peripherally. Investigation of the neuroimmune effects of physical activity is a rapidly developing area that may help understand the biological mechanisms of physical activity's effects and inform new therapeutic approaches for depression.

2022 1st Infant Massage USA Conference: The Science of Infant Massage
This critical review analyzed research on the benefits of infant massage for infants and their parents or caregivers. The review identified studies from multiple countries that used experimental and quasi-experimental designs to measure outcomes. The research consistently showed positive benefits for both infants and parents, including decreased infant crying and stress, and improved parent-infant interaction and decreased parental stress, anxiety and depression. The review concluded that infant massage can effectively increase infant relaxation and sleep as well as the quality of the parent-infant relationship.
Infant Massage Benefits for Infants and Parents/Caregivers
This document summarizes research on the benefits of infant massage for infants and parents or caregivers. It reviewed 31 peer-reviewed studies from 14 countries on the effects of parents and caregivers massaging infants. The research found benefits for both infants and parents, including for infants decreased crying, improved sleep and growth, and for parents decreased stress, anxiety and depression symptoms, increased interaction with their infants and satisfaction in their lives. Fathers in particular increased quality time with their infants after massage. The review found no reported negative outcomes of infant massage.
An Experimental Study On Academic Procrastination Effects Of Weekly Homework
This study examined the effects of weekly homework assignments, reflective writings, and presentations on students' academic procrastination and self-regulation. 114 undergraduate students completed procrastination and self-control scales before and after the semester. While the strategies did not significantly impact procrastination levels, students' self-regulation scores improved from pre- to post-test, suggesting the tasks helped develop their self-regulatory behaviors. The results provide additional evidence that weaknesses in self-regulation are associated with higher academic procrastination.

Are parents identifying
positive aspects to parenting

Abstract
Although acknowledging the stress of raising their child with intellectual disabilities, parents also
report that their child has brought about many positive changes in themselves and family. This
study reports what parents perceive to be a positive aspect of parenting their child, as currently
what constitutes a ‘positive’ is unclear. Seven key themes were identified; an increased sense of
personal strength and confidence, changed priorities, greater appreciation of life, pleasure in the
child’s accomplishments, increased faith/spirituality, more meaningful relationships and the positive
effect that the child has on the wider community. Interpretive examination of the themes reveals
that the positive aspects identified consist mostly of meaning-focused coping strategies. T.
FE 3109 - Challenges in autistic kids
This document outlines an assignment for a student named Awing Mukat to complete a study on the challenges of raising autistic children in families in Malaysia. The study will employ qualitative research methods, including interviews with 8 mothers of autistic children. The student will explore the experiences of mothers in raising autistic children and adapting within their families, as well as factors that contribute to well-being. The literature review discusses research on the impact of autism on families globally and in Asia, including common challenges like stress, as well as protective factors like social support. The methodology section provides details of the interpretative phenomenological analysis approach that will be used to analyze interview data.

Completed Final Thesis
This document is a thesis submitted by Christopher Kear to the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse to fulfill requirements for a Master of Science degree in Exercise and Sport Science. The thesis examines how interpersonal factors from the Theory of Triadic Influence predict adolescents' physical activity levels in physical education classes. Seventy-one high school students completed surveys assessing social constructs from the theory and wore accelerometers during five physical education lessons playing flag football. Results showed the social constructs predicted physical activity intentions but not actual physical activity levels during class. Further research is needed to identify additional factors that predict adolescents' physical activity behavior in physical education.

The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which public school teachers implemented
evidence-based interventions for students with autism in the way these practices were designed.
Evidence-based practices for students with autism are rarely incorporated into community settings,
and little is known about the quality of implementation. An indicator of intervention quality is
procedural implementation fidelity (the degree to which a treatment is implemented as prescribed).
Procedural fidelity likely affects student outcomes. This project examined procedural implemen-
tation fidelity of three evidence-based practices used in a randomized trial of a comprehensive
program for students with autism in partnership with a large, urban school district. Results indicate
that teachers in public school special education classrooms can learn to implement evidence-based
strategies; however, they require extensive training, coaching, and time to reach and maintain
moderate procedural implementation fidelity. Procedural fidelity over time and across intervention
strategies is examined. C© 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Special education enrollment for children with autism in the United States has quadrupled
since 2000 (Scull & Winkler, 2011), and schools struggle to provide adequate programming to these
students. A growing number of interventions for children with autism have been proven efficacious
in university-based research settings, but much less attention has been given to practical issues
of implementing these programs in the classroom, where most children with autism receive the
majority of their care (Sindelar, Brownell, & Billingsley, 2010). In general, evidence-based practices
for children with autism are rarely incorporated into community settings (Stahmer & Ingersoll, 2004).
Teachers in public schools report receiving inadequate training and rate their personal efficacy in
working with children with autism as low (Jennett, Harris, & Mesibov, 2003). Training public
educators to provide evidence-based practices to children with autism is a central issue facing the
field (Simpson, de Boer-Ott, & Smith-Myles, 2003).
One major challenge to implementing evidence-based practices for children with autism in
community settings is the complexity of these practices. Strategies based on the principles of

Sa'sha Moody - Systematic Review
The document summarizes research on school-based childhood obesity interventions. It finds that interventions using social cognitive theory were most effective, especially when incorporated into teacher curricula. A study using concepts from social cognitive theory and intervention mapping with parent/teacher involvement also showed success. A gardening program had benefits but its effects on obesity require more research. The least effective intervention saw limited student change as they already understood nutrition/activity importance. While many interventions have been conducted, school-based approaches using social cognitive theory can effectively reduce obesity among youth by addressing lifestyle environment, situations, expectations, self-efficacy and control.
Final Paper--FHS420
This research study aims to examine the effects of self-advocacy and self-efficacy on rates of depression, suicide, and quality of care for elderly adults receiving care. The study will interview both care recipients and caregivers, using questionnaires and observations, to assess perceptions of physical, emotional, and environmental care quality. Previous research has identified variables that impact care quality and caregiver stress, but have focused on caregivers rather than examining care from the recipient's perspective. This study aims to address that gap by centering the care recipient's perception of care quality, depression, and suicide risk.

Introduction
Of the many barriers to quality physical education, limited time and resources are some of the most formidable (Barroso, McCullum‐Gomez, Hoelscher, Kelder, & Murray, 2005; Morgan & Hansen, 2008). In an effort to overcome such barriers, some experts have suggest the use of a tool that has traditionally been used by classroom teachers (Gill & Schlossman, 2004a) but seldomly by physical educators (Mitchell, Stanne, & Barton, 2000; van Sluijs, McMinn, & Griffin, 2007) – homework (Novak & Lynott III, 2015; St. Ours & Scrabis-Fletcher, 2013a). Some of the criticisms of homework use for classroom subjects are that it promotes rote practice and busy work (Kohn, 2006). However, those same factors may be a seen as assets in a physical education context. When learning a motor skills, rote practice (# of practice trials/hours of practice) is arguably the most important variable for improvment (Schmidt, Lee, Winstein, Wulf, & Zelaznik, 2018). Additionally, when encouraging children to accumulate at least an hour of daily physical activity, what some call busy work, may be useful. After all, anything that keeps a child physically active is likely helping to meet national or state standards regarding physical activity (Hill, 2009; Novak & Lynott III, 2015).
The purpose of this study will be to investigate the efficacy of motor skill homework in elementary physical education classes. This inquiry is significant because there is very little in the current literature on the topic. Most of the current body of literature focuses on active homework (Duncan et al., 2011; Fairclough et al., 2013) or the attitudes and opinions of stakeholders (Barney & Strand, 2008; Kinchin & O’Sullivan, 2003; Smith & Madden, 2014). Furthermore, children are not as physically active as they should be to maintain optimal health (Roman-Viñas et al., 2016; Tremblay et al., 2016) and research shows that such inactivity can result from being physically illiterate (Whitehead, 2010). Inquiries such as this are valuable because they contribute to the body of knowledge regarding best practices in the utilization of homework in physical education contexts. When children engage in programs that improve physical literacy, they are more likely to lead physically active lives (Behringer, Heede, Matthews, & Mester, 2011; Clark & Metcalfe, 2002; Harris, 2014) and thus healthier lives (Reiner, Niermann, Jekauc, & Woll, 2013).
Delimitations
This study will be delimited to 5th grade students at a public elementary school. The classes must be left in-tact and the participants will be volunteers so the sample is on of convenience. Measures of skill achievement will be made via a skills test of a novel skill – juggling a footbag. Homework compliance will be reported from self record forms signed by parents/guardians. Students failing to submit the required approval forms or choosing to drop out will not be included.

The document summarizes research supporting the SCERTS model, an intervention framework for children with autism spectrum disorders. It describes the SCERTS model as being based on developmental frameworks and evidence-based practices. Research supporting the model is categorized into four levels of evidence, from experimental group studies to descriptive research. Tables list references for each evidence level and how they relate to the three domains (social communication, emotional regulation, transactional support) and components of the SCERTS model.
Effect of Postpartum Violence Research.pdf
This study examined the effect of postpartum intimate partner violence on mother-infant bonding. The researchers surveyed 200 mothers 4-6 weeks postpartum at hospitals in Turkey. Mothers who experienced violence from their partners during the postpartum period, such as being ignored, scolded, abused, or forced into sexual intercourse, had lower mother-infant bonding scores. In contrast, mothers who planned their pregnancy, were satisfied with their baby's sex, breastfed within 30 minutes of birth, and had a marriage initiated by both partners had higher bonding scores. The study suggests intimate partner violence during the postpartum period can negatively impact mother-infant bonding.

Literature Review: Childhood Obesity
The prevalence of childhood obesity in the United States has increased at such a rapid rate that this has been considered a serious healthcare issue. This issue has attracted the attention of policy makers, government agencies, and the community. Due to the extent of the problem, a large number of researchers have investigated a number of factors relating to childhood obesity. One of the factors that have been investigated is the impact of changing the attitudes of the patients towards obesity and lifestyle factors that cause a risk factor. In this study, the main factor being investigated is the impact of education on exercise and diet on patients who have a BMI of more than 30. The following is a summary of a review of the literature used to determine the impact of educating patients on exercise and diet changes.
Comparison of Research Questions
Most of the literature analyzed for this study focuses on the intervention strategies for childhood obesity. Cheung et al. seeks to understand the extent of the childhood obesity in America. The research asks about the incidence of childhood obesity in America in a bid to demonstrate the extent of the problem.

Discrete Trial Training (DTT) effect on children with ASD
Introduction
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a condition that affects the development of an individual affecting their behaviour and the ability to communicate (Autism Spectrum Disorder, 2021). In most cases, this disorder exhibits its symptoms within the initial two years of an individual, despite its diagnosis being plausible for individuals of all ages. Persons diagnosed with this disorder often have repetitive behaviours and restricted interests, find it difficult to partake in social interactions and communication with others, and show other symptoms that may impede the individual's ability to perform well in school, work and several other aspects of life ("Autism Spectrum Disorder, 2021). The individuals diagnosed with the disorder will, in some cases, be reliant on their families and individuals close to them for help and support. Despite the disorder's potency as a life-long condition, some services and treatments are provided, helping an individual diagnosed with the condition improve the quality of their life. It is also important to note that the disorder has several different variations; hence, the spectrum of different characteristics, unique to every diagnosed individual.
According to studies conducted, one in fifty-four children is diagnosed with the disorder in the United States, occurring in children of all racial backgrounds and socioeconomic groups ("Data and Statistics on Autism Spectrum Disorder | CDC," 2021). According to the same report, the disease is four times more likely to occur in boys than in girls. Between 2009 to 2017, the number of children aged between 3-17 years diagnosed with development disorders, inclusive of ASD, increased from 16.2% to 17.8%. (Ünlü et al., 2018). In the use of discrete trial training (DTT), children are taught a plethora of skills, which include academic, language, and social skills, necessary to facilitate their development. In the treatment of ASD, options are limited. However, early diagnosis, coupled with behaviour interventions, is considered to have the best outcomes in managing the disorder's symptoms (Masi et al., 2017).
The prevalence of ASD in children has been noted to rise significantly in the population (Masi et al., 2017; "Data and Statistics on Autism Spectrum Disorder | CDC," 2021), affecting a larger portion of the population. This number of affected individuals is projected to rise even higher in the coming years, a problem in society that needs to be addressed. In the treatment of the disorder, drug interventions, while widely used, have failed to prove their efficiency in improving or managing symptoms in most cases (Masi et al., 2017). The treatment options for the disorder are also very limited. The use of drug interventions, early diagnosis, and early behavioural interventions is very expensive and inaccessible to many individuals affected by the condition. Identifying the disorder i ...

This study investigated the attitudes toward and perceived barriers and facilitators of evidence-based practice among 89 registered nurses working in nursing homes in Taiwan. The nurses expressed positive attitudes toward research and EBP. The most frequently cited barriers were related to insufficient authority to change practice, difficulty understanding statistical analyses, and isolation from knowledgeable colleagues. Perceived facilitators included improved computer/Internet access, more effective research training, and collaboration with academic nurses. The findings were similar to prior Western research and indicate further research education for nursing home nurses could be beneficial.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
