UNASSIGNED: The study used a quasi-experimental design conducted at the University of Mosul; 128 participants meeting the metabolic syndrome criteria were recruited and divided into the intervention and control groups. The intervention group received personalized counseling and support in implementing a low-carb regime, while the control group received standard advice. The study participants were assessed by anthropometry, and laboratory parameters were evaluated pre- and post-intervention. Statistical data analysis was conducted using IBM-SPSS 27, including chi-square, Fisher\'s exact test, t-tests, and the Mcnemar test, which were performed to compare the changes within and between groups.
UNASSIGNED: The mean age of the participants in the intervention and control groups was 50.72 ± 6.43 years and 49.14 ± 6.89 years, respectively. Compared to the control group, the intervention group experienced a significant positive reduction in anthropometric measures and laboratory parameters, including weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, lipid profiles, and HbA1c.
UNASSIGNED: A tangible effect of nurse-led interventions based on low-carbohydrate regimens in managing metabolic syndrome was empirically authenticated. Positive changes were observed in the intervention group regarding anthropometric measures and laboratory parameters. However, future research may require a larger sample size and a longer follow-up to confirm these effects and evaluate long-term metabolic impacts.
■该研究使用了在摩苏尔大学进行的准实验设计;招募了128名符合代谢综合征标准的参与者,并将其分为干预组和对照组。干预小组在实施低碳水化合物方案时接受了个性化的咨询和支持,而对照组接受标准建议。研究参与者通过人体测量学进行评估,和实验室参数在干预前后进行评估。统计数据分析使用IBM-SPSS27进行,包括卡方,费希尔的精确检验,t检验,还有Mcnemar测试,进行比较组内和组间的变化。
■干预组和对照组参与者的平均年龄分别为50.72±6.43岁和49.14±6.89岁,分别。与对照组相比,干预组的人体测量和实验室参数显着降低,包括体重,体重指数(BMI),腰围,脂质分布,和HbA1c。
■基于低碳水化合物方案的护士主导干预在管理代谢综合征方面的实际效果得到了经验验证。在干预组中观察到人体测量和实验室参数方面的积极变化。然而,未来的研究可能需要更大的样本量和更长时间的随访,以确认这些影响并评估长期代谢影响.
