Conquering today’s health paradox with the power of Heal – an expert consensus report plus research priorities and policymaker roadmap
Background: Despite growing scientific evidence and health guidelines, the global health paradox persists, with rising lifestyle-related diseases and escalating healthcare costs exposing the inadequacy of current efforts. Objective: Three multidisciplinary congresses were held to generate evidence-based conclusions aimed at addressing the global health paradox. Methods: A total of 58 experts from 62 entities participated in the international rese…
Cost-effectiveness of integrative oncology for sustainable and patient-centred cancer care: A systematic review in the context of the WHO global traditional medicine strategy 2025–2034
Introduction: The World Health Organisation (WHO) recently released the Global Traditional Medicine Strategy 2025-2034, calling for strengthened evidence, governance, and integration of safe, effective traditional and complementary practices into national health systems. In oncology, integrative oncology (IO) combines evidence-informed complementary and traditional modalities with standard cancer care to improve symptom control, quality of life, …
Resources and facilitators of workplace well-being among healthcare professionals in a hospital setting—results of a qualitative interview study
Background: Working in a hospital setting can be rewarding but also represents a demanding and often stressful work environment due to personnel shortage and high work volumes among others. A considerable body of literature addresses the adverse effects of working conditions that often result in poor well-being of medical professionals. This work moves from a problem-centered approach towards resilience-focused pathways. It does so by focusing on…
Seeing the Forest and the Trees: Protocol for a Qualitative Systematic Review and Metasynthesis on Forest- and Nature-based Therapies in Greenspaces to Improve Health and Well-Being of Adult Participa…
Background: Systematic reviews and metanalyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have provided robust evidence on the health benefits of nature-based therapies in greenspaces. While such approaches are indispensable for advancing knowledge on therapeutic effects, they do not adequately capture the contextual and interpretive dimensions around these interventions. In the field of Traditional, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine (TCIM), pa…
Interventions to reduce stress and prevent burnout in healthcare professionals supported by digital applications: A scoping review
Aim Healthcare professionals are at increased risk of burnout, primarily due to workplace-related stressors. The COVID-19 pandemic has further increased this risk. Different interventions exist with varying degrees of effectiveness; little is reported on the content and implementation of such programs. This review fills this gap, with attention to recent programs using digital components. Methods PubMed, Embase, PsycInfo, and Google Scholar were …
On the Scent Trail: Arts-Informed Method Development to Support Perception and Expression of Olfactory Experiences in Aromatherapy of Women With Gynecological Cancers
Background: Talking about personal olfactory experiences is challenging because subjective, often latent reactions to odor are difficult to perceive and express. In qualitative empirical research on the effects of Aromatherapy (AT), this issue needs to be considered in data collection. Therefore, we developed a new data-collection method to support participants in perceiving and articulating their own olfactory experiences. The method development…
Mindfulness-Based Student Training Improves Vascular Variability Associated With Sustained Reductions in Physiological Stress Response
In today's fast-paced society, chronic stress has become an increasing problem, as it can lead to psycho-physiological health problems. University students are also faced with stress due to the demands of many courses and exams. The positive effects of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) on stress management and self-regulation have already been studied. We have developed a new mindfulness intervention tailored for students—the Mindfulness-…
Impact of Meditation–Based Lifestyle Modification on HRV in Outpatients With Mild to Moderate Depression: An Exploratory Study
Our results suggest a benefit in selected HRV parameters for outpatients with mild to moderate depression participating in the MBLM program. For further investigations, we propose analysis of complete 24-h HRV recordings and additional continuous pulse wave or blood pressure analysis to assess long-term modulations and cardiovascular effects
