About this study

The proposed study is an observational study. The study will include our previous subjects, those who are following the shelter- in- place order due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Demographic data of individuals participating in the study will be recorded. During this 12-month protocol, participants will be contacted through email to complete online questionnaires on weekly basis for 8 weeks, and then once every 4 weeks until the end of the study. Subjects will record their one-day food intake, physical activity, sleep, and stress and anxiety level, which takes ~1 hour to complete.

Subjects will be recruited through our CNRC databases of individuals who come to our clinic in the past 1 year, online advertisement, and word of mouth. A phone and/or email will be administered to ensure their eligibility using our standard tools and protocols. People who are willing and able to participate and meet the basic screening eligibility will be contacted through email for informed consent and the continuing of the study.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Automated Self-Administered 24-Hour Dietary Recall (ASA24)

    Time frame: 0-12 months

    The ASA24 system will be used to document the study participant diet during the study period.

  2. International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)

    Time frame: 0-12 months

    IPAQ will be used to evaluate the current physical activity level of the participants during the study period. All continuous scores are expressed in MET-minutes/week, Walking = 3.3 METs, Moderate PA = 4.0 METs and Vigorous PA = 8.0 METs.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Health-Related Quality of Life SF-12 Scale

    Time frame: 0-12 months

    Short Form 12 (Short Form12- SF12) quality of life scale will be used to evaluate health-related quality of life during the study period.The SF-12v2 is a health-related quality-of-life question- naire consisting of twelve questions that measure eight health domains to assess physical and mental health. Physical health-related domains include General Health (GH), Physical Functioning (PF), Role Physical (RP), and Body Pain (BP). Mental health-related scales include Vi- tality (VT), Social Functioning (SF), Role Emotional (RE), and Mental Health (MH). the raw scores could be transformed to provide scores for eight scales, each ranging from 0 (the worst) to 100 (the best)

  2. State trait inventory for cognitive and somatic anxiety (STISA).

    Time frame: 0-12 months

    STISA will be used to measure state and trait anxiety as well as cognitive and somatic anxiety during the study period.scale consists of 21 items that are rated on a 4-point Likert scale. Both the STICSA State and Trait scales were designed to have two factors. One factor reflects the cognitive symptoms of anxiety (10 items, highest score: 40 (the worst), lowest score 10 (the best) ), and the second factor reflects the somatic symptoms of anxiety (11 items, highest score: 44 (the worst), lowest score 11(the best)).

  3. Beck Depression inventory (BDI)

    Time frame: 0-12 months

    BDI will be used to investigate the stress levels of the individuals participating in the study during the study period. The highest possible total for the whole test would be 36, the lowest would be 0. scoring category: 1-10: normal; 11-16 Mild mood disturbance; 17-20: Borderline clinical depression; 21-30

    :Moderate depression; 31-40:Severe depression; over 40: Extreme depression
