Abstract:
This study examines the relationships between three aspects of adjustment to hemodialysis (i.e. activity levels, mood states and severity of symptoms) and four demographic variables (i.e. age, occupation, education and length of time on dialysis). The sample consisted of 37 patients on hemodialysis. Activity levels, mood states and severity of symptoms were measured by the activity inventory, profile of mood states and symptom questionnaire, respectively. A personal history questionnaire was employed to assess the demographic variables. The data was analyzed using the Pearson Product-Moment C

Increased BMI, considered a risk factor for DJD, has an inverse association with the BFS. The independent relationship of DJD and the BFS is poorly understood and may represent a previously unreported pain pathway. In this n

Ketogenic diets (KDs) are diets in which the net carbohydrate intake, calculated by subtracting fibres from total carbohydrates, is between 20 and 50 g/day (<10% of total energy intake) with a variable proportion of proteins and fats (Noakes, Windt 2017). In these conditions, glycogen stores are depleted (Paoli, Canato et al. 2011), insulin level is low and energy metabolism is mainly dependent from fat oxidation.
