Using the "Literature Evaluation Table," determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles Literature Evaluation Table In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. The ability to articulate research data and summarize relevant content supports the student’s ability to further develop and synthesize the assignments that constitute the components of the capstone project. This assignment will be used to develop a written implementation plan. For this assignment, provide a synopsis of the review of the research literature. Using the “Literature Evaluation Table,” determine the level and strength of the evidence for each of the eight research articles you have selected. The a

Article Title and Year Published | The tittle of the article is “An open-label randomised clinical trial to compare the efficacy of dietary caloric restriction and physical activity for weight loss in overweight pet dogs.” The article was published on 2019. | The tittle of the article is “Exercise for Weight Loss: Further Evaluating Energy Compensation with Exercise” It was published on 2020. | ||
Research Questions (Qualitative)/Hypothesis (Quantitative) | The study had two hypotheses. The first hypothesis was: dietary caloric restriction contributes weight loss in overweight pet dogs. The second hypothesis is: physical activity reduces weight in overweight pet dogs. | 12-wk aerobic exercise is effective in reducing weight of obese patients. | ||
Purposes/Aim of Study | The purpose of the study was to determine the efficacy of dietary caloric restriction and physical activity for weight loss in overweight pet dogs. | This study assessed how individuals compensate for energy expended during a 12-wk aerobic exercise intervention, elucidating potential mechanisms and the role exercise dose plays in the compensatory response. | ||
Design (Type of Quantitative, or Type of Qualitative) | An open-label randomized-control trial was used to conduct the study. | Three-arm, randomized controlled trial was used to conduct the study. | ||
Setting/Sample | 13 overweight pet dogs. | A total of 52 sedentary adults age 18 to 40 yr, body mass index of 25 to 35. | ||
Methods: Intervention/Instruments | Measurements included bodyweight, waist circumference, and BMI. | Instruments include ActiGraph accelerometer (GT3X+ model), GE Lunar iDXA machine, Quark RMR, and VMAX Encore Metabolic Cart. | ||
Analysis | Data was analyzed statistically using SPSS. | Data was analyzed using SPSS. | ||
Key Findings | The authors found that physical activity is effective in reducing weight of pet dogs. | Exercising more than 300 minutes per week led to greater fat loss. | ||
Recommendations | The study should be conducted in human being to investigate if the same results can be recorded. | The authors recommend that people should exercise more than 300 minutes per week to effective weight loss. | ||
Explanation of How the Article Supports EBP/Capstone Project | The article supports physical activity as a weight loss intervention.
