Brunel mood scale (BRUMS)
Aikaikkuna: 10 weeks
|
The Lithuanian translated version of the Brunel Mood Scale (BRUMS) was used in the present study.
It was based on the originally developed to serve as a brief measure of mood before and after yoga intervention.
The BRUMS (1) scale has 24 items arranged into six subscales: anger, confusion, depression, fatigue, tension and vigor.
Each subscale has a numerical rating scale (0 = not at all, 1 = a bit, 2 = moderate, 3 = enough; 4 = extremely) from which research participant select the one best represents at that time.
The results within subscale is summed and a score range from 0 to 16

Human Free BDNF
Aikaikkuna: 10 weeks

Venous blood samples from median antecubital vein were collected in 5 ml vacuum tubes with a gel separator and was separated by centrifugation (15 min at 1200g) to make blood serum.
Samples were aliquoted and stored at -800C until analysis.
The serum concentration of Human Free BDNF was measured using an enzyme-linked immunoassay kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, USA)
