Coaching in the Digital Age: Personalization, Opportunities and Challenges

2024-11-21T12:56:28+00:00

With the arrival of the digital age, coaching, like other disciplines that focus on the human being, finds itself in a conjunctural break with its professional framework centred on well-being, empathy, direct dialogue and the immediate reactions and emotions of the client. The digital alternative to coaching, characterized by the use of online platforms, mobile applications, live chat, video calls and other digital resources, is advancing in a transcendental and fragmentary direction rather than an immanent one. In this work, we will explore the concept of digitalising life coaching in various situations such as during pandemics, in busy schedules, in remote areas, and with considerations of discretion and anonymity. We will begin by outlining, in a linear and progressive manner, the transition from the demythification of traditional face-to-face coaching to the personalisation of digital coaching. Secondly, we will list the advantages and disadvantages of digital alternative. Finally, we will present some illustrative statistics in order to clarify and specify our theme.

Key words: challenges, digitalisation, life coaching, personalization

Insulin Resistance: A Pathway to Metabolic Syndrome – A Comprehensive Review

2024-11-30T17:44:19+00:00

Insulin resistance (IR) plays a pivotal role in the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of conditions that includes central obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. The prevalence of insulin resistance and its connection to MetS is increasing globally, driven by sedentary lifestyles, poor dietary habits, and genetic predispositions. This review explores the underlying mechanisms linking insulin resistance to MetS, discusses its epidemiology, and examines current diagnostic tools and therapeutic approaches. Recent advancements in pharmacological and lifestyle interventions are also highlighted, along with areas for future research.

Mobile Text and Call as Effective Tools to Reduce Sickle Cell Crises Hospitalization: A Comprehensive Review

2024-11-30T17:59:37+00:00

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic condition characterized by recurring painful crises and complications, leading to frequent hospitalizations and reduced quality of life. Effective management strategies are crucial to minimize hospital admissions and improve patient outcomes. This review explores the role of mobile text messaging and phone call interventions in enhancing patient care for SCD. These tools have shown promise in improving medication adherence, patient education, and self-management, reducing the frequency of crises and hospitalization rates. The integration of mobile health (mHealth) in SCD care provides a cost-effective and scalable approach to addressing the challenges faced by patients and healthcare providers.

Psychological Therapies for Thalassemia: Current Strategies

2024-11-30T18:02:48+00:00

Thalassemia, a genetic blood disorder, presents significant physical and psychological challenges to patients due to its chronic nature and the demanding treatments required. Beyond medical management, the psychological burden associated with thalassemia, such as depression, anxiety, and reduced quality of life, necessitates tailored psychological interventions. This review explores current psychological therapy strategies employed to improve mental health outcomes for patients with thalassemia, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), family therapy, psychoeducation, and mindfulness-based approaches. The integration of these therapies alongside medical treatment is vital for holistic care and improved quality of life.

Glioblastoma Treatment and Quality of Life in Children: A Review

2024-11-30T18:11:25+00:00

Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive and rare brain tumor in children, with significantly different biological and clinical features compared to adult GBM. Despite advances in treatment modalities, the prognosis for pediatric GBM remains poor, and the aggressive nature of therapies often impacts the quality of life (QoL) in affected children. This review discusses current treatment strategies, including surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, alongside emerging therapies such as immunotherapy and targeted approaches. Additionally, it evaluates the impact of these treatments on the quality of life, focusing on neurocognitive, emotional, and social aspects, and the importance of supportive care.

Impact of Exercise on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Comprehensive Review

2024-11-30T18:14:24+00:00

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, often accompanied by obesity and cardiovascular complications. Lifestyle interventions, particularly exercise, have proven to be effective in managing T2DM by improving glycemic control, enhancing insulin sensitivity, and reducing cardiovascular risk factors. This review examines the impact of different types of exercise—such as aerobic, resistance, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT)—on glycemic control and metabolic health in individuals with T2DM. The review also explores the mechanisms underlying these benefits and discusses challenges in adherence and future directions for integrating exercise into diabetes care.
