The Effect of a Meatless,Keto Restrictive Diet on Body Composition,Strength Capacity,Oxidative Stress,Immune Response

The subject of doctoral dissertation: Assessment of the effects of a meatless, ketogenic restrictive diet on body composition, strength capacity, oxidative stress and immune response During planning of research and topic of the doctoral dissertation, it was considered how to modify a standard ketogenic diet rich in saturated fatty acids so that the use of this model of nutrition has the most anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, it was decided to conduct a research to check whether a diet rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids will show such an effect when following a high-fat diet. Hypotheses: 1\. The ketogenic diet reduces systemic inflammation. 2.The ketogenic diet reduces oxidative stress. 3. The ketogenic diet reduces body fat. 4. A ketogenic diet does not worsen strength performance.

Effectiveness of the Group Unified Protocol for Emotional Disorders in Adults in a Public Mental Health Setting

This study has three primary objectives: 1. To adapt the Spanish version of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders (UP; Barlow et al., 2011, 2019a, 2019b) for delivery in a group format within the Spanish Public Mental Health System for adults diagnosed with emotional disorders. 2. To evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention. 3. To assess its clinical feasibility and acceptability in routine clinical practice. Outcomes will include anxiety, depression, somatic symptoms, transdiagnostic variables, functional impairment, quality of life, and participant satisfaction. These outcomes will be assessed at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. The intervention is expected to improve emotional symptoms, functional impairment, and quality of life. In addition, the study will explore whether this group-based transdiagnostic approach may help lower demand on public mental health services.
