Unhealthy eating habits and lack of proper nutrition knowledge cause non-communicable diseases and affect adolescents. It is in adolescence that eating habits are formed that persist till adulthood. Lifestyle interventions are needed to curb NCDs in adolescents. This paper reports the findings of a study that aimed to validate a lifestyle intervention program and its effect on food intake, physical activity, and nutrition knowledge. It was a clustered randomized control trial study conducted in four (4) junior secondary schools. There were 46 participants, 21 in the control and 25 in the intervention arm, who were blindly assigned to each arm by a statistician. Information and skills on nutrition were imparted using the Information, Motivation, and Behavioral Skills model. The program was implemented for eight (8) weeks hourly after school. A questionnaire was used to collect data pre- and post-intervention. Number, proportion, percentage, and independent t-test (mean and SD or median and IQR, p-value) were calculated using numerical and categorical data. The findings showed that the lifestyle intervention was valid, and there was a slight decrease in the intake of sweets among participants in both trial arms (p = 0.066). There was no significant difference in terms of food intake. Only a small number of participants still ate a few fruits, and there was no change in vegetable intake in both trial arms (p = 0.641). There was no change in the intake of fried foods in both trail arms (p = 0.402). Regarding nutrition knowledge, there was a slight significant difference of p = 0.079 between the trial arms. Though the effect of the lifestyle intervention program was not statistically significant, the results are promising, especially if the duration could be increased to a longer period and a larger sample size included.展开更多

Improvement of stroke care should be achieved through awareness of public, especially through high-risk group. Henceforth, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nursing intervention on improving awareness of high-risk people about stroke prevention. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was used to carry out this study, where a purposive sample of 80 adult patients at high risk for stroke were enrolled while they were attending the out-patient clinics of Zagazig University Hospitals for follow-up treatment;they were divided into two groups: case (40 patients) and control (40 patients). An interview questionnaire was used to assess patients’ knowledge regarding warning signs, risk factors, and immediate treatment;attitude;and their practice for prevention for stroke at pretest and posttest. Results: The study revealed the poor level of knowledge, bad level of preventive behavior, and negative attitude regarding stroke prevention at pre-intervention. However, after intervention, the high-risk people had fair level of knowledge with moderate practice for stroke prevention and positive attitude, with statistically significant difference between pre-post intervention and between the case and control groups. Conclusions: The study revealed that the nursing intervention seemed to change the knowledge, practice, and attitude of subjects regarding stroke prevention. This, in turn, implies that awareness of prevention of stroke and high-risk factor control could be important to reduce the burden of stroke in Egypt. Thus, further research on a larger scale is required to improve population knowledge and behavior for stroke prevention and control.展开更多

文摘Background Both medication and non-medication therapies are effective approaches to control blood pressure (BP) in hypertension patients.However,the association of joint changes in antihypertensive medication use and healthy lifestyle index (HLI)with BP control among hypertension patients is seldom reported,which needs to provide more evidence by prospective intervention studies.We examined the association of antihypertensive medication use and HLI with BP control among employees with hypertension in China based on a workplace-based multicomponent intervention program.Methods Between January 2013 and December 2014,a cluster randomized clinical trial of a workplace-based multicomponent intervention program was conducted in 60 workplaces across 20 urban areas in China.Workplaces were randomly divided into intervention (n=40) and control (n=20) groups.Basic information on employees at each workplace was collected by trained professionals,including sociodemographic characteristics,medical history,family history,lifestyle behaviors,medication status and physical measurements.After baseline,the intervention group received a 2-year intervention to achieve BP control,which included:(1) a workplace wellness program for all employees;(2) a guidelines-oriented hypertension management protocol.HLI including nonsmoking,nondrinking,adequate physical activity,weight within reference range and balanced diet,were coded on a 5-point scale (range:0-5,with higher score indicating a healthier lifestyle).Antihypertensive medication use was defined as taking drug within the last 2 weeks.Changes in HLI,antihypertensive medication use and BP control from baseline to 24 months were measured after the intervention.Results Overall,4655 employees were included (age:46.3±7.6 years,men:3547 (82.3%)).After 24 months of the intervention,there was a significant improvement in lifestyle[smoking (OR=0.65,95%CI:0.43-0.99;P=0.045),drinking (OR=0.52,95%CI:0.40-0.68;P<0.001),regular exercise (OR=3.10,95%CI:2.53-3.78;P<0.001),excessive intake of fatty food (OR=0.17,95%CI:0.06-0.52;P=0.002),restrictive use of salt (OR=0.26,95%CI:0.12-0.56;P=0.001)].Compare to employees with a deteriorating lifestyle after the intervention,those with an improved lifestyle had a higher BP control.In the intervention group,compared with employees not using antihypertensive medication,those who consistent used (OR=2.34;95%CI:1.16-4.72;P=0.017) or changed from not using to using antihypertensive medication (OR=2.24;95%CI:1.08-4.62;P=0.030) had higher BP control.Compared with those having lower HLI,participants with a same (OR=1.38;95%CI:0.99-1.93;P=0.056) or high (OR=1.79;95%CI:1.27~2.53;P<0.001) HLI had higher BP control.Those who used antihypertensive medication and had a high HLI had the highest BP control (OR=1.88;95%CI:1.32-2.67,P<0.001).Subgroup analysis also showed the consistent effect as the above.Conclusion These findings suggest that adherence to antihypertensive medication treatment and healthy lifestyle were associated with a significant improvement in BP control among employees with hypertension.

文摘Objective: Stroke is perceived as a serious illness although it is preventable, and lifestyle alterations can be made to reduce its risk. Improvement of stroke care should be achieved through awareness of public, especially through high-risk group. Henceforth, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nursing intervention on improving awareness of high-risk people about stroke prevention. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was used to carry out this study, where a purposive sample of 80 adult patients at high risk for stroke were enrolled while they were attending the out-patient clinics of Zagazig University Hospitals for follow-up treatment;they were divided into two groups: case (40 patients) and control (40 patients). An interview questionnaire was used to assess patients’ knowledge regarding warning signs, risk factors, and immediate treatment;attitude;and their practice for prevention for stroke at pretest and posttest. Results: The study revealed the poor level of knowledge, bad level of preventive behavior, and negative attitude regarding stroke prevention at pre-intervention. However, after intervention, the high-risk people had fair level of knowledge with moderate practice for stroke prevention and positive attitude, with statistically significant difference between pre-post intervention and between the case and control groups. Conclusions: The study revealed that the nursing intervention seemed to change the knowledge, practice, and attitude of subjects regarding stroke prevention. This, in turn, implies that awareness of prevention of stroke and high-risk factor control could be important to reduce the burden of stroke in Egypt. Thus, further research on a larger scale is required to improve population knowledge and behavior for stroke prevention and control.
