NCT05922566

Brief Summary

This study aims to use the intervention study method to extract and verify the effective ingredients in Mukbang that promote appetite and eating in children with tumor during radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and to analyze and explore their potential mechanisms of action based on functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The pictures of activated functional areas of the brain

    The outcome can be collected using the Siemens 3T Prisma functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine with an Inspur data processing system. The pictures reflect the brain functional areas which can be activated by watching Mukbang.

    Baseline

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Cancer Appetite and Symptom Questionnaire, CASQ

    Change from baseline appetite at 1 hour intervention

  • The number of increased salivation and perceived appetite

    Change from baseline salivation and perceived appetite during 1 hour fMRI scanning

Study Arms (1)

fMRI scanning while Mukbang watching

EXPERIMENTAL

The fMRI scanning will be divided into 3 parts, includes structural image scans, resting state scans, and task state scans. For the task state function image scanning, participants will be asked to watch the specific video program which includes the food images and eating sound of Mukbang and General short videos without food cues. Healthy kids and children with cancer hospitalized for radiotherapy and chemotherapy will both accept this intervention.

Combination Product: fMRI + Mukbang videos

Interventions

fMRI + Mukbang videosCOMBINATION_PRODUCT

Specific video program + fMRI will be allocated to the participants in this group. The specific video program includes control videos without food information, eating and food images without sound, chewing and swallowing sound without images, and Interactive content in Mukbang. Participants will undergo structural image scans, resting state scans, and task state scans. The task-fMRI will be performed while watching Mukbang to explore the activation of brain functional areas.

Eligibility Criteria

Age10 Years - 18 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • children with cancer aged between 10 to 18 years old;
  • diagnosed with any tumor or cancer other than brain tumor before the age of 18;
  • having received or are receiving inpatient treatment;
  • both the patient and the guardian can communicate in Chinese;
  • children with moderate or higher symptoms of decreased appetite were screened for the Therapy-Related Symptom Checklist for Children.

You may not qualify if:

  • a diagnosis of a serious disease other than a tumor, especially a brain disease such as epilepsy and organic psychosis, was identified from the case;
  • unable to complete communication due to serious mental or physical illness, such as cognitive impairment or unclear consciousness;
  • children with eye or ear dysfunction that prevents them from watching and listening to videos;
  • with braces, cardiac pacemakers and other items with iron magnetism that cannot be removed from the body;
  • people who suffer from claustrophobia, ADHD, and other problems of staying quiet in confined spaces for long periods of time.
