Background Physiotherapists often lack a comprehensive understanding of self-management and encounter challenges in providing self-management support. The Keep Moving Support Tool (KMST) was developed to support physiotherapists in their role as health promotors and to stimulate physical activity in …

Background: As populations age, maintaining physical activity (PA) is essential to reduce chronic disease risk and preserve functional independence in older adults. Technology-supported interventions, such as wearables, mobile applications, and web-based platforms, have emerged as effective tools to …

INTRODUCTION: Physical Activity (PA) is essential for enhancing the physical function of pre-frail and frail older adults. However, among this group, PA-levels vary significantly. Identifying the factors contributing to these differences could support tailored PA interventions. This study aims to examine …

Introduction: Several barriers, such as lack of time, knowledge and support, hinder clinicians from providing an individually tailored physical activity (PA) prescription and referral to their patients. As a result, “exercise is medicine” (E = M) is not systematically implemented in clinical care today. …

Early detection and frequent monitoring of SO are essential for preventive …

Background Indirect calorimetry (IC) provides an accurate measure of energy expenditure, which informs energy requirements. Achieving energy and protein requirements is fundamental in nutrition care. This study aims to determine if the energy requirements informed by IC and estimated protein requirements …

Introduction The cardiovascular biomarkers troponin T, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and fibroblast growth factor 23 are elevated in hemodialysis patients and associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality risk. Nocturnal hemodialysis improves the fluid status in hemodialysis patients. …

Citizen science has demonstrated potential to foster local changes in public health, including physical (in)activity. We used community-engaged citizen science to explore how to improve the exercise-friendliness of a Dutch neighborhood, chosen because it scored below average on important health parameters. …
