Background: Palliative care is an interdisciplinary medical approach for people with illnesses that are unresponsive to curative treatment. Music therapy has been gaining ground in this field since the 1970s, with a not-always-standardized range of interventions and musical techniques. Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to analyze interventions with music therapy and new developments in this area in the field of palliative care. Methods: The primary source of data for this review was the online database Web of Science (WOS). We also used other databases such as Medline and Scopus. A systematic search was performed of the past 6 years following the PRISMA criteria. Results: From a selection of 310 documents, we reviewed 54 completed articles and included 19 studies in the review. The percentage of agreement in the selection of articles was 87.5% and the Cohen Kappa index of inter-rater reliability was 0.727. In 5 of the articles, the musical interventions were not specified. However, in the remaining 14 they were, including new developments such as use of the monochord and the body tambura, and adaptation of the RBL (Rhythm, Breath & Lullaby) method. Conclusions: There has been notable improvement in the specification of musical interventions during music therapy sessions in palliative care. However, articles in this field need to describe how these techniques are carried out and any new developments. All this without forgetting that the patient’s musical preferences are a fundamental aspect when performing music therapy sessions.

There is considerable disagreement regarding what constitutes a healthy diet. Ever since the influential work of Cannon and Richter, it was debated whether the ‘wisdom of the body’ will automatically direct us to the foods we need for healthy lives or whether we must carefully learn to eat the right foods, particularly in an environment of plenty. Although it is clear that strong mechanisms have evolved to prevent consumption of foods that have previously made us sick, it is less clear whether reciprocal mechanisms exist that reinforce the consumption of healthy diets. Here, we review recent progress in providing behavioural evidence for the regulation of intake and selection of proteins, carbohydrates and fats. We examine new developments in sensory physiology enabling recognition of macronutrients both pre- and post-ingestively. Finally, we propose a general model for central neural processing of nutrient-specific appetites. We suggest that the same basic neural circuitry responsible for the homoeostatic regulation of total energy intake is also used to control consumption of specific macro- and micronutrients. Similar to salt appetite, specific appetites for other micro- and macronutrients may be encoded by unique molecular changes in the hypothalamus. Gratification of such specific appetites is then accomplished by engaging the brain motivational system to assign the highest reward prediction to exteroceptive cues previously associated with consuming the missing ingredient. A better understanding of these nutrient-specific neural processes could help design drugs and behavioural strategies that promote healthier eating.

Abstract The aim of this research is to conduct a systematic review analysing the role of the physiotherapy interventions in palliative care. PRISMA as a critical appraisal tool was utilised for the selection of the research articles. The inclusion criteria were based on the year of publication, ease of availability, language, geographical location, and study type. To ensure the credibility, databases such as Elsevier, Proquest, and EBSCO Host were used to filter the grey content. Data published in the past ten years (2009-onwards) was only included to ensure the selection of the most recent interventions used by the physiotherapists. A total of 11 articles were selected which determined that physiotherapy interventions involving breathing exercises, aerobic exercises, manual therapies, and educational awareness were critical to promoting the functional capability and empower the patients.

IntroductionDespite informal caregivers' integral role in supporting people affected by disease or disability, economic evaluations often ignore the costs and benefits experienced by this group, especially in the palliative setting. The purpose of this systematic review is to identify preference-based instruments for measuring care-related outcomes and provide guidance on the selection of instrument in palliative care economic evaluations.Methods and analysisA comprehensive search of the literature will be conducted from database inception (ASSIA; CINAHL; Cochrane library including DARE, NHS EED, HTA; Econlit; Embase; PsychINFO; PubMed). Published peer-reviewed, English-language articles reporting preference-based instruments for measuring care-related outcomes in any clinical area will be included. One researcher will complete the searches and screen the results for potentially eligible studies. A randomly selected subset of 10% citations will be independently screened by two researchers. Any disagreement will be resolved by consensus among the research team. Subsequently, a supplementary search will identify studies detailing the development, valuation, validation and application of the identified instruments. The degree of suitability of the instruments for palliative economic evaluations will be assessed using criteria in the International Society for Quality of Life Research minimum standards for patient-reported outcome measures, the checklist for reporting valuation studies of multiattribute utility-based instruments and information on the development of the instrument in the palliative setting. A narrative summary of the included studies and instruments will be provided; similarities and differences will be described and possible reasons for variations explored. Recommendations for practice on selection of instruments in palliative care economic analyses will be provided.Ethics and disseminationThis is a planned systematic review of published literature. Therefore, ethics approval to conduct this research is not required. Findings will be presented at leading palliative care and health economic conferences and published in a peer-reviewed journal.Trial registration numberCRD42016034188.

When listening to music, the body responds releasing dopamine from the body. The release of dopamine causes vasodilation of blood vessels so that it will affect a person's blood pressure. The standard length of time for Javanese langgam music therapy in previous studies was found to be different. Therefore, it is necessary to do research to compare its effectiveness.The purpose of this research to determine the effectiveness of Javanese langgam music therapy time on blood pressure in elderly persons with hypertension in Muara Rengas village. This research uses a quasi-experimental method with pre and post control design, the selection of respondents uses a non-probability sampling with a consecutive sampling method. The Wilcoxon test, Paired T-Test, Mann Whitney and Independent T-Test show there is an effect of Javanese langgam music therapy on blood pressure in elderly persons with hypertension in the 15-minute group with a systolic p value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a diastolic p value of 0.013; and in the 30-minute group with a p value of 0.008 (<0.05) and a diastolic p value of 0.029 (<0.05). There is no effectiveness difference on blood pressure after being given Javanese music intervention for 15 minutes and 30 minutes with a systolic p value of 0.320 (>0.05) and a diastolic p value of 0.576 (> 0.05). Based on research results there is no effectiveness difference between 15-minute and 30-minute Javanese langgam music intervention in elderly persons with hypertension.

This pilot research study investigated music therapy in a hospital-at-home setting for children in palliative care, focusing on parental and nurses experiences of music therapy. Nine families included in the study were interviewed after receiving a maximum of five individual music therapy sessions at home with a Music Therapist. In addition, a focus group interview with allied health professionals involved in the patients’ care was conducted investigating the multidisciplinary team’s experiences with music therapy. Results revealed that the families drew attention to the feeling of being isolated–yet connected due to music therapy. All the families reported the importance of the relationship to the Music Therapist, while emphasizing flexibility and joint music-making. Music therapy within hospital-at-home treatment was reported as a meaningful and much appreciated form of therapy, while the multidisciplinary teamwork was highly valued by both the health personnel and the families. The results showed the need for a highly skilled Music Therapist to support the families’ complex and dynamic needs within a hospital-at-home setting. The results demonstrated the need for, and the possibilities of, a dynamic music therapy programme adapting not only to the patients’ individual needs but additionally providing family-centred care that considered shifting locations.
