Background: There are over 30 million people hospitalized in the United States yearly. Hospital stays can increase the risk of mobility loss or diminished function in patients. This can lead to reduced ambulation well after a patient’s hospital stay; therefore, it is very important to reduce this risk while patients are in the hospital. John’s Hopkins Hospital started the Activity and Mobility Promotion (AMP) program to help patients be active in the hospital and reduce the risk of patient function or mobility loss. Now, the AMP project is being used in many hospitals around the country to help reduce this …

Recent scientific evidence suggests that traits energy and fatigue are two unique unipolar moods with distinct mental and physical components. This exploratory study investigated the correlation between mental energy (ME), mental fatigue (MF), physical energy (PE), physical fatigue (PF), and the gut microbiome. The four moods were assessed by survey, and the gut microbiome and metabolome were determined from 16 S rRNA analysis and untargeted metabolomics analysis, respectively. Twenty subjects who were 31 ± 5 y, physically active, and not obese (26.4 ± 4.4 kg/m2) participated. Bacteroidetes (45%), the most prominent phyla, was only negatively correlated with PF. The second …
