Abstract Background and Aims Physical activity is often reduced in chronic hemodialysis patients. Studies having evaluated hemodialysis reveal a significant sedentary lifestyle. which is associated with excess mortality. Conversely, the benefits in terms of morbidity and mortality from physical activity are numerous. The fight against sedentary lifestyles in hemodialysis patients must be one of the objectives of healthcare teams. For this reason, our study aims to assess physical inactivity using a physical activity score from DIJON in chronic hemodialysis patients and to identify the factors linked to a decrease in physical activity in them and to propose programs aimed at to encourage PA as well as exercises adapted to the hemodialysis patient. Method This is a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study conducted during the month of January 2020, in the nephrology and hemodialysis department of CHU IBN ROCHD. We used the Dijon questionnaire translated into Arabic to measure the PA taking into account daily, sports or leisure activities. The PA level benchmarks are 0–10 (low), 10–20 (medium), and 20–30 (high). Results Our study included 71 patients. The average age was 46.5 years with extremes ranging from 16 to 93 years, there is a slight male predominance with a sex ratio of 1.1. Initial nephropathy was undetermined nephropathy in 53.5%, glomerular in 29.5%, diabetic in 7% and hypertensive in 1.4%. The age of the periodic hemodialysis treatment in our patients varied from 1 month to 44 years, with an average duration of 17.3 years. 91.5% of patients had an arteriovenous fistula as a vascular approach, 8.4% of patients were dialyzed on a catheter. The overall level of physical activity was high only in 4.5% of patients, while it was low in 61.3% and moderate in 34% of patients. The study of the relationship between the decrease in physical activity and different demographic, clinical and paraclinical parameters had revealed that the decrease in physical activity was significantly correlated with seniority on hemodialysis, gender, l he advanced age, the different degrees of anemia, and the cardiovascular affections, on the other hand no significant correlation was found between the decrease in physical activity and hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hyperparathyroidism. Conclusion Our results show that the level of physical activity is linked to many parameters, some of which can be modified. Prescribing an adapted and personalized program would improve the prognosis related to co-morbidities and the quality of life of our patients.

Abstract Background and Aims physical activity is generally impaired in the chronic hemodialysis patient. Studies confirm the benefit of maintaining or improving physical activity in these patients. For this reason, our study aims to assess physical inactivity in chronic hemodialysis patients using a physical activity score: DIJON score and to identify the factors linked to a decrease in physical activity . Method this is a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study carried out at the hemodialysis center of Fattouma Bourguiba hospital in Monastir. We used the DIJON questionnaire to measure physical activity: daily activities, sports or leisure. The reference values for the level of physical activity are 0-10 (low), 10-20 (medium); and 20-30 (high). Results our study included 71 patients. The middle age was 46.62 + - 15.34 years. 69% of patients were male. The overall physical activity level was high at 22.75 + -1.99 in 28.2% of patients, medium at 13.75 + -3.65 in 33.8% of patients and low at 5.56 + -2.91 in 38% of hemodialysis patients. Analysis in multiple linear regression showed that the variables that explained the DIJON score in our population are in order of contribution: pre-dialytic uremia (β = 0.433; t = 2.99; p = 0.005), cardiac diseases(β = 0.305; t = 2.074; p = 0.044), the KT/V ratio (β = -. 858; p = -1.915; p = 0.063), the PRU (β = 1.21; t = 1.885; p = 0.066) , anemia (β = 0.211; t = 1.704; p = 0.096), comorbidity evaluated by Charlson score (β = -. 461; t = -1.414; p = 0.165). Conclusion our results showed that the level of physical activity is linked to many factors, some of which are modified. So, prescribing an adapted and personalized program will improve the prognosis and the quality of life of our patients.

Abstract Background and Aims Despite progress these recent years in support the hemodialysis, chronic pain remains a problem concern that ultimately affect the quality of life and psycho-emotional state, even among dialysis patients already psychologically fragile. However, it is often overlooked and its characteristics in chronic hemodialysis (HDC) are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence, features, impact and treatment of pain in our population of chronic hemodialysis patients and to determine the factors associated with it. Method cross-sectional study conducted in January 2020 including 71 chronic hemodialysis patients from the nephrology department of the CHU ibn rochd CASABLANCA. They were subjected to a questionnaire on socio-demographic characteristics, the characteristics of the pain, its impact on daily life, the various treatments performed. The pain is chronic if it persists for more than 3 months. The intensity was assessed using a visual analog scale. Results Of the 71 patients, 64.4% report chronic pain, the average age of our patients was 46.5 years, ranging from 16 to 93 years, with a sex ratio M/F 1.1, seniority hemodialysis was 17.3 years. The pain is continuous, frequent, intermittent and rare in respectively 55.5%, 27.5%, 13.7%, 3.44% of cases, it is a weak, moderate, severe, very severe in respectively: 13.7%, 58.6%, 17.24%, 10.3%, causing musculoskeletal was predominant in 75.8% of cases, the most common sites are: shoulders (47,23%), knees (34.5%), the head (41.2%) and the back (19.65%). It resounded on the patient's daily activity in 55.17%, and sleep in 41.3%, the treatment was essentially based analgesics in 58.6% of cases, these analgesics were level 1 in 47.1% cases and level 2 in 52.9% of cases. This is taken daily in 28.5% of patients, common in 42.8% and 28.5% rare among of them, the disappearance of pain was achieved in 65.51% of cases. In perdialyse, the intensity of the pain does not change in 79.4% of patients. Pain was favored by advanced age and age dialysis (advanced age (p = 0.043) and age dialysis (p = 0.01).) Conclusion Chronic pain is a major problem in hemodialysis by its high prevalence, its significant intensity and its impact on life daily patient. However its management remains inadequate. Regular assessment of pain using a well-codified questionnaire is necessary to improve the care of dialysis patients.

Introduction: Fibromyalgia (FM) affects 2.40% of the Spanish population. The most widespread treatment has been the combination of patient education, pain coping strategies and exercise. With regard to patient education, there are few previous studies on the efficacy of relating FM education in isolation with an improvement in FM, although there are some studies that report that health education programs could modify the perception of quality of life and improve pain. Objectives: the aim was to find out the level of knowledge about FM among patients in Extremadura, to explore the relationship between knowledge of FM and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) and to analyze the relationship between knowledge of physical activity in FM and the practice of physical activity. Methods: A single-measure cross-sectional study was carried out with 121 women with a mean age of 55.06 (±9.93) years. The following questionnaires were used: Fibromyalgia Knowledge Questionnaire (FKQ); SF12v2 (Short-Form Health Survey); and EURO-QOL-5D-5L (EQ-5D-5L). Results: regarding the level of knowledge of the participants about FM, it was found that 10% had a low knowledge, 49% medium and 41% high. In relation to the associations between the level of knowledge and HRQoL, a weak correlation between EQ-5D-5L and the FKQ in the domain of physical activity (r = 0.243) were found. Conclusions: it can be concluded that the level of knowledge about FM of the patients from Extremadura was medium-high and that there is a direct weak relationship between knowledge about physical activity in FM and HRQoL. However, no association was found between knowledge of physical activity in FM and the practice of physical activity.

Background: The patients on hemodialysis have a significantly decreased quality of life. One of many problems which reduce the quality of life and increase the mortality in these patients is osteoporosis and osteoporosis associated fractures. Objectives: To assess the bone density of those on hemodialysis by dual energy X ray absorptiometry and to examine the risk factors of bone density reduction in these patients. Patients and Method: This is a cross-sectional study, including 93 patients on chronic hemodialysis at the department of Hemodialysis at Cho Ray Hospital. Results: Mean bone densities at the region of interest (ROI) neck, trochanter, Ward triangle, intertrochanter and total neck are 0.603 ± 0.105; 0.583 ± 0.121; 0.811 ± 0.166; 0.489 ± 0.146; 0.723 ± 0.138 g/cm2 respectively. The prevalences of osteoporosis at those ROI are 39.8%, 15.1%; 28%; 38.7%; and 26.9% respectively. The prevalences of osteopenia at those ROI are 54.8%; 46.3%; 60.2%; 45.2% and 62.7% respectively. The prevalence of osteopososis in at least one ROI is 52.7% and the prevalence of osteopenia in at least one ROI is 47.3%. There are relations between the bone density at the neck and the gender of the patient and the albuminemia. Bone density at the trochanter is influenced by gender, albuminemia, calcemia and phosphoremia. Bone density at the intertrochanter is affected by the gender. Bone density at the Ward triangle is influenced by age and albuminemia. Total neck bone density is influenced by gender, albuminemia and phosphoremia. Conclusion: Osteoporosis in patients on chronic hemodialysis is an issue that requires our attention. There are many interventionable risk factors of bone density decrease in these patients. Key words: Osteoporosis, DEXA, chronic renal failure, chronic hemodialysis

Abstract Objective The evaluation of physical activity for chronic hemodialysis patients is a new approach for patient global care. The objective of this work is to evaluate the physical activity in chronic hemodialysis patients and identify the risk factors associated with reduced physical activity. This is a prospective study for 6 months including 150 chronic hemodialysis patients in the Guelmim-Oued Noun Regionin Moroccan Sahara. We use Baecke's survey, translated and validated in Arabic local language. The socio-demographic, clinical, and biological data were completed during the interrogation and from the medical records of the patients. Results The mean age of our patients was 54.6 ± 16.4 years, with male predominance (59%). Most patients have a low education level and 60% were illiterate. Hypertension was found in 54% of our patients, diabetes in 39%, and cardiovascular disease in 10% of patients. Low Physical activity was associated with gender (OR = 4.05), age (OR = 1.03) and high education level (OR = 0.2). Our work has met the various pre-established objectives, however other more specific studies must be conducted to better characterize the profile of physical activity in chronic hemodialysis patients.

Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, autoimmune inflammatory condition that affects 0.5% of the adult population worldwide (1). Sedentary behavior (SB) is any waking behavior characterized by an energy expenditure of ≤1.5 METs (metabolic equivalent) and a sitting or reclining posture, e.g. computer use (2) and has a negative impact on health in the RA population (3). Sleep is an important health behavior, but sleep quality is an issue for people living with RA (4, 5). Poor sleep quality is associated with low levels of physical activity in RA (4) however the association between SB and sleep in people who have RA has not been examined previously.Objectives:The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between SB and sleep in people who have RA.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients were recruited from rheumatology clinics in a large acute public hospital serving a mix of urban and rural populations. Inclusion criteria were diagnosis of RA by a rheumatologist according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria age ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years; ability to mobilize independently or aided by a stick; and to understand written and spoken English. Demographic data on age, gender, disease duration and medication were recorded. Pain and fatigue were measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), anxiety and depression were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. SB was measured using the ActivPAL4™ activity monitor, over a 7-day wear period. Descriptive statistics were calculated to describe participant characteristics. Relationships between clinical characteristics and SB were examined using Pearson’s correlation coefficients and regression analyses.Results:N=76 participants enrolled in the study with valid data provided by N=72 participants. Mean age of participants was 61.5years (SD10.6) and the majority 63% (n = 47) were female. Participant mean disease duration was 17.8years (SD10.9). Mean SB time was 533.7 (SD100.1) minutes (8.9 hours per day/59.9% of waking hours). Mean sleep quality score was 7.2 (SD5.0) (Table 1). Correlation analysis and regression analysis found no significant correlation between sleep quality and SB variables. Regression analysis demonstrated positive statistical associations for SB time and body mass index (p-value=0.03846, R2 = 0.05143), SB time and pain VAS (p-value=0.009261, R2 = 0.07987), SB time and HADS (p-value = 0.009721, R2 = 0.08097) and SB time and HADSD (p-value = 0.01932, R2 = 0.0643).Conclusion:We found high levels of sedentary behavior and poor sleep quality in people who have RA, however no statistically significant relationship was found in this study. Future research should further explore the complex associations between sedentary behavior and sleep quality in people who have RA.References:[1]Carmona L, et al. Rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract Background Many studies have already reported on the relationship between exercise habits and health among schoolchildren. However, few have examined social and/or family factors as determinants of exercise habits. Methods This study’s participants included 1721 schoolchildren aged between 6 and 13 who were involved in the Super Shokuiku School Project in January 2016. A survey was conducted to assess gender, grade level, physical activity, lifestyle, overall health, enrichment of school life, social background, and parental lifestyles. Both dislike and lack of physical activity were used to measure poor exercise habits; correlates were analyzed using logistic regression. Results “Lack of close friends” had the strongest links with both dislike (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 5.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.78–10.1) and lack of (adjusted OR 5.40; 95% CI, 2.81–10.4) physical activity. Further, children who engaged in long periods of screen time and lacked parental communication also tended to dislike and lack physical activity. Children with mothers who were unemployed (housewives) and had unhealthy lifestyles, as well as those with poor health, were also more likely to lack physical activity. Conclusion Social and family factors (e.g., having close friends) may be determinants of exercise habits among schoolchildren, independent of their own lifestyle factors. Although a longitudinal study is needed to determine causality, substantial attention may thus be required to these factors when promoting physical activity in children.
