Importance SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with persistent, relapsing, or new symptoms other health effects occurring after acute infection, termed postacute sequelae of (PASC), also known as long COVID . Characterizing PASC requires analysis prospectively and uniformly collected data from diverse uninfected infected individuals. Objective To develop a definition using self-reported describe frequencies across cohorts, vaccination status, number infections. Design, Setting, Participants...
We evaluated the performance of a consumer multi-sensory wristband (Fitbit Charge 2™), against polysomnography (PSG) in measuring sleep/wake state and sleep stage composition healthy adults.In-lab PSG Fitbit 2™ data were obtained from single overnight recording at SRI Human Sleep Research Laboratory 44 adults (19—61 years; 26 women; 25 Caucasian). Participants screened to be free mental medical conditions. Presence disorders was with clinical PSG. findings indicated periodic limb movement...
Abstract Objective This study examined the impact of COVID‐19 pandemic and subsequent social restrictions or quarantines on mental health global adult population. Method A sample 6,882 individuals ( M age = 42.30; 78.8% female) from 59 countries completed an online survey asking about several pandemic‐related changes in life psychological status. Results Of these participants, 25.4% 19.5% reported moderate‐to‐severe depression (DASS‐21) anxiety symptoms (GAD‐7), respectively. Demographic...
Objective: During adolescence, neurobiological maturation occurs concurrently with social and interpersonal changes, including the initiation of alcohol other substance use. The National Consortium on Alcohol NeuroDevelopment in Adolescence (NCANDA) is designed to disentangle complex relationships between onset, escalation, desistance use changes neurocognitive functioning neuromaturation. Method: A sample 831 youth, ages 12–21 years, was recruited at five sites across United States,...
Objective/Background: To evaluate the performance of a multisensor sleep-tracker (ŌURA ring) against polysomnography (PSG) in measuring sleep and stages. Participants: Forty-one healthy adolescents young adults (13 females; Age: 17.2 ± 2.4 years). Methods: Sleep data were recorded using ŌURA ring standard PSG on single laboratory overnight. Metrics compared Bland-Altman plots epoch-by-epoch (EBE) analysis. Results: Summary variables for onset latency (SOL), total time (TST), wake after...
Objective: The authors sought evidence for altered adolescent brain growth trajectory associated with moderate and heavy alcohol use in a large national, multisite, prospective study of adolescents before after initiation appreciable use. Method: This examined 483 (ages 12–21) drinking 1 2 years later. At the 2-year assessment, 356 participants continued to meet study’s no/low consumption entry criteria, 65 had initiated drinking, 62 drinking. MRI was used quantify regional cortical white...
Most research to understand postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), or long COVID, has focused on adults, with less known about this complex condition in children. Research is needed characterize pediatric PASC enable studies underlying mechanisms that will guide future treatment.
1 Body temperature has a circadian rhythm, and in women with ovulatory cycles, also menstrual rhythm. sleep are believed to be closely coupled, but the influence on their relationship of gender, cycle phase female reproductive hormones is unresolved. 2 We investigated 24 h rectal temperatures eight normal cycles mid-follicular mid-luteal phases, young taking steady dose oral progestin ethinyl oestradiol (hormonal contraceptive), compared body that men, sleeping identical conditions.

Brain structural development continues throughout adolescence, when experimentation with alcohol is often initiated. To parse contributions from biological and environmental factors on neurodevelopment, this study used baseline National Consortium Alcohol NeuroDevelopment in Adolescence (NCANDA) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, acquired 674 adolescents meeting no/low or drug use criteria 134 exceeding criteria. Spatial integrity of images across the 5 recruitment sites was assured by...
