Abstract:
Early detection of cancer through screening is an important step in decreasing both morbidity and mortality. Likewise, specific modifiable lifestyle behaviors are associated with reduced risk of colorectal cancer. Lifestyle practices have also been shown to maximize health after the primary treatment of cancer. Both these roles for lifestyle interventions are discussed.

Abstract:
Introduction: Hypertension is an overwhelming global challenge. Appropriate lifestyle modifications are the cornerstone for the prevention and control of hypertension. In this regard, lack of knowledge and poor attitude toward lifestyle modification have been a major setback. Objective: To assess knowledge, attitude and practice of lifestyle modification recommended for hypertension management and the associated factors among adult hypertensive patients in Harar, Eastern Ethiopia. Methods: Hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 274 hypertensive patients in Hiwot Fana Specialized University Hospital, from 1 March to 30 May 2019. The pre-tested structured questionnaire was used, and the data were collected through an interview. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. A multivariate logistic regression model was fitted to determine independent predictors of knowledge and practice of lifestyle modifications among hypertensive patients. Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) at 95% confidence interval (CI) was used for predicting the independent effect of each variable on the outcome variables. Results: From the total participants, 200 (73.0%) of participants had good knowledge, 182 (66.4%) had favorable attitude and 136 (49.6%) had good practice on lifestyle modification recommended for hypertension management. Regarding factors associated with lifestyle modification, being in age range of 46–64 years (AOR: 4.08, 95% CI: 1.14–14.56); having formal education (AOR: 3.93, 95% CI: 1.27–12.23); being government employee (AOR: 8.06, 95% CI: 1.40–46.32) and being housewives (AOR: 5.10, 95% CI: 1.26–20.79) were factors significantly associated with good knowledge of lifestyle modification, However, favorable attitude was found to be the only factor associated with good practice of lifestyle modification (AOR: 9.20, 95% CI: 2.60–32.24). Conclusion: In the current study, knowledge and attitude toward lifestyle modification recommended for hypertension management was fairly good but practice level was poor. Concerted strategies are required to increase the knowledge, attitude and practice of the lifestyle modification measures in this population group.

Abstract:
Obesity is a worldwide public health problem. One in three Canadians is overweight, a prevalence that is already high and increasing. Moreover, 54% of men and 37% of Canadian women are characterized as abdominally obese, the phenotype that is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. These observations underscore the importance of considering the efficacy of methods commonly used to reduce total and abdominal obesity. These strategies include a decrease in energy intake (diet), an increase in energy expenditure (exercise), or pharmacological intervention. The combination of diet and exercise is more commonly prescribed, with pharmacological intervention suggested only when lifestyle changes fail to achieve weight loss.The aim of this report is to review current knowledge regarding the influence of diet and exercise as treatment strategies for obesity reduction and provide recommendations for attaining and maintaining a healthy weight. The importance of diet composition in the treatment of obesity is also considered. Key words: body fat, weight loss, exercise, diet

Abstract:
Despite significant advances in medical technology and pharmacology, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a major contributor to health care expenses and the leading cause of death in the United States. Patients with established CVD and their health care providers are challenged with achieving cardiovascular risk reduction to decrease the likelihood of recurrent cardiovascular events. This “secondary prevention” can be achieved, in part, through adherence to prescribed pharmacotherapies that favorably modify major coronary risk factors (ie, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and obesity). However, lifestyle modification can also be helpful in this regard, providing independent and additive benefits to the associated reductions in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Accordingly, physicians and other health care providers should routinely counsel their coronary patients to engage in structured exercise and increased lifestyle physical activity, consume a heart-healthy diet, quit smoking and avoid secondhand smoke, and purposefully address psychosocial stressors that may elevate cardiovascular risk. These lifestyle interventions, either as an adjunct to medication therapy or independently in those patients where medications may be poorly tolerated, cost prohibitive, or ineffective, can significantly decrease cardiovascular mortality and the risk of recurrent cardiac events.

Abstract:
Lifestyle modification, including diet, exercise, and tobacco cessation, is the first-line treatment of many disorders including hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. Lifestyle modification data are not easily retrieved or used in research due to their textual nature. This study addresses this knowledge gap using natural language processing to automatically identify lifestyle modification documentation from electronic health records. Electronic health record notes from hypertension patients were analyzed using an open-source natural language processing tool to retrieve assessment and advice regarding lifestyle modification. These data were classified as lifestyle modification assessment or advice and mapped to a coded standard ontology. Combined lifestyle modification (advice and assessment) recall was 99.27 percent, precision 94.44 percent, and correct classification 88.15 percent. Through extraction and transformation of narrative lifestyle modification data to coded data, this critical information can be used in research, metric development, and quality improvement efforts regarding care delivery for multiple medical conditions that benefit from lifestyle modification.

Abstract:
Of nearly 800 000 strokes that occur annually, 23% are recurrent events. Risk for disability and mortality is higher following a recurrent stroke than following a first-time stroke, which makes secondary stroke prevention a priority. Many risk factors for stroke are modifiable and amenable to improvement through lifestyle modification. Lifestyle modification can be difficult for people with stroke, however, in part because of stroke-related physical and cognitive deficits. Despite these challenges, risk factor management through lifestyle modification is important. This article reviews the multiple cardiovascular and metabolic benefits associated with the modification of several lifestyle behaviors: diet, physical activity, smoking cessation, and alcohol consumption. Health behavior theories and existing lifestyle intervention programs are also reviewed to identify important behavioral and cognitive skills that can be used to facilitate modification of health behaviors, and practical skills and suggestions for health care providers are provided.

Abstract:
The prevalence of childhood and adolescent obesity continues to rise in the United States (US). Immediate health consequences are being observed, and long-term risks are mounting within the pediatric population, secondary to obesity. The hallmark of prevention and treatment of obesity in children and adolescents includes lifestyle modification (i.e., dietary modification, increased physical activity, and behavioral modifications). However, when intensive lifestyle modification is insufficient to reach weight loss goals, adjunctive pharmacotherapy is recommended. Among the group of weight-loss medications, orlistat is the only US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved prescription drug for the treatment of overweight and obese adolescents. Other medications, including metformin, need larger studies to establish their role in treatment. No single approach to management of pediatric obesity is the answer, given the complexity of the disorder and the many reasons for failure. Evidence of weight loss medications in addition to lifestyle modification supports short-term efficacy for treatment of obese children and adolescents, although long-term results remain unclear.

Abstract:
Objective: To assessed the types 2 diabetic patient’s knowledge, the practice of, and attitude to lifestyle modification at University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study of types- 2 diabetic patients at the Medical outpatient clinic in UCH was done with a validated structured 48 item self-administered questionnaire that measured the socio-demographics, knowledge, practice of and attitude to lifestyle modifications. A purposive sampling of 99 consenting patients out of 103 determined with Yaro Tamane formulae was done. Data were entered into SPSS v. 21 for descriptive and inferential analysis. Results: About 59.6% of respondents were within ≥60 years age range, and 68.7% of them were females. Many (51.5%) of them had tertiary education qualifications. On knowledge of symptoms, the majority 78 (78.8%) had good knowledge and 21(21.2%) had poor knowledge of diabetes mellitus. While 64 (64.6%) respondents had a good attitude and 35(35.4%) had a poor attitude towards lifestyle modification. Besides, a vast majority (94.9%) reported that lifestyle modification helps attain normal blood glucose levels, preserves life, assuage symptoms, and avert extended complications. The respondents tend to strongly agree to have a good practice of lifestyle modification with a weighted mean of 3.76 to 4.69 on a 5point scale. Conclusion: The majority of the respondents had good knowledge, the practice of and attitude to lifestyle modification which can help patients in altering long-term habits, eating or physical activity, and maintaining these practices as part of the management of the disorder.

Abstract:
Objectives – Various efforts are being made to disseminate lifestyle modification information. What is the role of health information in building patients self-efficacy in lifestyle modification? The research examined level of access to lifestyle modification information for patients with chronic diseases in two Federal Government Teaching Hospitals in South East Nigeria. It explored the relationship between self-efficacy and access to lifestyle modification information and also factors that are associated with self-efficacy when patients have access to lifestyle modification information. Methods – The research is a cross-sectional correlation study that used a questionnaire to collect data. (See Appendix A.) Sample was 784 patients with chronic diseases. Questionnaires were distributed to the patients as they attended clinics in the medical and surgical outpatients’ clinics of the hospitals. Results – Findings showed access to lifestyle modification information was significantly and positively correlated with self-efficacy. Multiple Regression analysis suggest that age, type of illness, and length of treatment in the teaching hospitals were associated with self-efficacy when patients have access to lifestyle modification information. Conclusion – It will be pertinent that demographic and disease factors are considered when making lifestyle modification information available to patients for greater self-efficacy.

This study aims to describe the lifestyles (physical activity and healthy diet) and their associations with sociodemography, illness characteristics, psychological elements, family support and level of barrier. 100 participants were given Pro forma questionnaires to assess sociodemography and illness characteristics. The lifestyles, psychological elements, family support and level of barrier were assessed using the Theory of Planned Behaviour questionnaire. The determinants of healthy lifestyles include the status of receiving treatment, level of barrier and intention for behavioural change. The findings may inform the strategy for lifestyle modification of FH patients.Keywords: Familial Hypercholesterolaemia; lifestyle; physical activity; healthy diet.eISSN: 2398-4287© 2020.

Abstract:
Introduction: Hypertension is a major modifiable cause of cardiovascular disease affecting more than one billion people globally. Lifestyle modifications form the corner stone for the mitigation of identified risk factors and the prevention and control of hypertension. Some of these factors include cessation of cigarette smoking, weight reduction, increase in physical activity, moderation of dietary sodium and alcohol intake and following the DASH eating plan. They may also facilitate drug step-down and drug withdrawal in highly motivated individuals. The objective of this study was to determine the extent to which diagnosed hypertensive patients modify their lifestyle. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study among 230 patients with essential hypertension in the Family Medicine clinic in a tertiary hospital using a structured pretested questionnaire. Results: Most of the participants (149; 64.8%) were educated on lifestyle practices by health workers. Abstaining from tobacco products (230; 100%) and drinking alcohol (230; 100%) were the most used lifestyle practices. Dietary fruit consumption (93; 40.4%) and engagement in physical activity for thirty minutes per day (35; 15.2%) were the least used lifestyle practices. Conclusion: Health workers were the main source of education of the participants on lifestyle modification. Use of alcohol and consumption of tobacco products were not practiced by all the study participants. Dietary fruit consumption and engagement in physical activity were not popular lifestyle practices. It is recommended that primary care clinicians inquire about unhealthy lifestyles during clinical consultations as well as motivate hypertensive patients to adopt and adhere to appropriate lifestyle modifications.

Abstract:
Several clinical trials have shown that lifestyle modifications lower blood pressure, affect weight as well as lipid profile and lower risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. The study assessed the effect of structured lifestyle modification on cardiovascular risk factors amongst type 2 diabetic patients that attend the General Outpatient Clinic (GOPC) of Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH). The study was a randomized controlled trial on 352 participants at the GOPC of JUTH, from October 2015 to February 2016. The intervention offered was counselling on structured lifestyle modification in diet and exercise for a period of 12 weeks. The primary outcome measures were changes in blood pressure, weight and lipid profile. The data were analyzed using Epi Info version 3.5.3. There were significant differences between groups in favor of the intervention group; mean systolic blood pressure of -65 mmHg (t = 5.344; p = 0.017) and mean weight of -1.78kg (t = 2.452; p = 0.015). Structured lifestyle modification caused significant improvement on modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus attending the general outpatient clinic of the Jos University Teaching Hospital.
