Title: 鈥淚mpact of Lifestyle Intervention on Depression and Anxiety Score of Patients With Metabolic Syndrome鈥�

There is evidence to suggest that an increase in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome results in an increase in the severity of depression and anxiety. However, it is unclear whether lifestyle intervention targeting metabolic syndrome also benefits individuals' anxiety and depressive symptoms. The objective of this thesis was to investigate the impact of lifestyle changes on the symptoms of depression and anxiety in patients with metabolic syndrome. Additionally, this study examined whether changes in diet, activity, or fitness were most closely associated with changes in depression and anxiety. 575 community adults completed the CHANGE program, of whom 208 were eligible for this study. Anxiety, depression, physical activity, diet, fitness, and total metabolic syndrome criteria were measured at baseline and 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Based on the results, a significant improvement was observed in participants' anxiety and depression scores at the end of the intervention program. Furthermore, it was found that reduced sedentary time and improved shoulder flexibility were significantly associated with changes in depression scores. Surprisingly, no significant association was found between anxiety and different components of the CHANGE program. To conclude, it is presumed that improvements in individuals' lifestyle habits provided a beneficial effect on the symptoms of depression and anxiety among patients with metabolic syndrome.

A Skeptic in Springtime wrestles with uncertainty and aging, hurricanes, gravity, and particle theory. Amid all the unknowns, 鈥淪till, the white-throated sparrow cries I鈥檓 here, here, here, here.鈥� Rooted in the PEI landscape where MacLaine grew up, his gaze ranges farther afield to Assyrian myth in 鈥淜illing a Lassamu,鈥� to the Song Dynasty in 鈥淪u Dongpo Makes Ink,鈥� to art in 鈥淐laude Monet in the Waiting Room.鈥�

The book closes with a tribute to the late Dr. John Smith, former poet laureate of PEI. Combining keen observation of the natural world and the human condition, the poems in this collection contain 鈥渁 universe which has leapt from nothing into something.鈥�

Dr. MacLaine is a professor emeritus at the 秀色短视频 Department of English and the author of six volumes of poetry. He grew up in the rural community of Rice Point, PEI, to which he returned after teaching at universities in Vancouver, Edmonton, China, and Singapore. His awards for poetry include a League of Canadian Poets prize, the Prince Edward Island Book Award, and the Atlantic Poetry Prize.

The event is free, and all are welcome to attend. Books will be available for purchase. The event is sponsored by Island Studies Press, the 秀色短视频 English Department, and The Bookmark. For more information, contact Bren Simmers at 902-566-0386 or ispstaff@upei.ca.
