Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated a 5-year personalized integrative coaching program for obese adults, focusing on health outcomes over the first 2 years.
- Significant improvements were noted in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores, specifically in physical functioning and general health perceptions.
- Participants also showed notable progress in physical metrics, including weight loss and waist circumference reduction, as well as improvements in psychological well-being measures like fatigue.
Developing a Personalized Integrative Obesity-Coaching Program: A Systems Health Perspective.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
January 2022
Current obesity management strategies are failing to achieve sustainable and favorable long-term results. We propose a more personalized, dynamic, and systemic perspective on the interactions of key determinants and coaching advice on obesity. The aim of this study was to use a systems view on overweight, complexity science, and a transdisciplinary process to develop a five-year personalized integrative obesity-coaching and research program.

Meanwhile newly developed noncontact scanners became available to measure residual limb volume after TTA but should be tested for clinical usability and reliability.
Objective: To determine the clinical usability, reliability, and repeatability of noncontact scanners in measuring residual limb volume in persons with a TTA.
Background: Stroke affects the neuronal networks of the non-infarcted hemisphere. The central motor conduction time (CMCT) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) could be used to determine the conduction time of the corticospinal tract of the non-infarcted hemisphere after a stroke.
Objectives: Our primary aim was to demonstrate the existence of prolonged CMCT in the non-infarcted hemisphere, measured within the first 48 h when compared to normative data, and secondly, if the severity of motor impairment of the affected upper limb was significantly associated with prolonged CMCTs in the non-infarcted hemisphere when measured within the first 2 weeks post stroke.
Background: The added prognostic value of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) to clinical modeling for the upper limb is still unknown early poststroke.
Objective: To determine the added prognostic value of TMS of the adductor digiti minimi (TMS-ADM) to the clinical model based on voluntary shoulder abduction (SA) and finger extension (FE) during the first 48 hours and at 11 days after stroke.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study with 3 logistic regression models, developed to predict upper-limb function at 6 months poststroke.
