BACKGROUND Regular physical activity (PA) is important for maintaining mental and physical health after liver transplantation (LT); however, the fluctuations in routine PA during COVID-19 and its putative impacts are currently unknown. This study examined the changes in PA during the COVID-19 pandemic and explored its association with fear and depr...

This study aimed to review the validity and/or reliability of light-intensity physical activity (LPA) questionnaires and identify the most suitable questionnaires for measurement of LPA in adults. Following the PRISMA-P 2020 guidelines, we searched MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Scopus, Embase, and MedNar. Only studies that targeted adults ≥18 years ol...

Aim To evaluate the effects of an intensity display type accelerometer on diabetic patients' physical activity. Methods This was a two-arm, non-randomized controlled study. Both groups received information about the recommendation of 150 min/week moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). The intervention group used an intensity display type a...

[Purpose] To describe our newly developed Sedentary Behavior and Light-Intensity Physical Activity Questionnaire and examine its reliability and validity. [Participants and Methods] We identified and selected self-reported items through a literature review and interviews with 11 inactive individuals. Thirty-one individuals with lower limb prosthese...

The contribution of physical activity (PA) to the prevention of metabolic abnormalities following liver transplantation (LT) has not been well documented. We aimed to assess PA in post‐LT patients and to quantify its relationships with the development of postoperative metabolic abnormalities and health‐related quality of life (HRQOL). We recruited...

Aim The aims of this study were to: (a) describe the physical activity (PA) and quality of life (QOL) in living donor liver transplant (LDLT) recipients pre‐operatively and at 3 months and 6 months post‐operatively; (b) compare PA and QOL at 6 months post‐operatively with a healthy control group; and (c) explore pre‐operative factors that predict P...

Background: The Hospital for Special Surgery Hip Replacement Expectations Survey (HSS-THRES) is used in many countries to determine patient expectations before surgery. This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the Japanese version of HSS-THRES. Methods: A total of 134 patients scheduled for total hip arthroplasty (THA) underwen...
