Adolescent depression is highly prevalent and has substantial morbidity, including suicide attempts, school dropout, substance abuse, but many depressed adolescents are untreated. The school-based health clinic offers the potential for accessible efficient treatment, although it unknown whether clinicians can be trained to implement evidence-based psychotherapies in routine care.To assess effectiveness of interpersonal psychotherapy modified (IPT-A) compared with treatment as usual (TAU)...

<h3>Background</h3> The familial nature of early-onset major depressive disorder (MDD) has been documented in numerous family studies adults and is supported by offspring parents with MDD, for whom the risk more than 3-fold. None published high-risk have gone beyond 2 generations, few a longitudinal design. We report results an approximately 20-year follow-up families at high low depression. first generations were interviewed 4 times during this period. from second generation are now...

Abstract Little is known about whether a mother's psychological state during pregnancy influences her offspring's microbiome. This study examined maternal anxiety, depression, and stress associated with the diversity of meconium microbiome, first internal discharge, in 75 newborns from an existing birth cohort study. The microbiome was profiled using multibarcode16S rRNA sequencing at V3‐V4 hypervariable region followed by taxonomic assignment to green gene 16S references 97% similarity...

Whether longer screen time in infancy increases risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ADHD has long been debated, but no causal relationship between the two remains established. Using ongoing longitudinal cohort data, we found that children 24 to 40 months age, genetic ASD was associated with an increase over time. These data suggest prolonged may not be a cause for NDD, early sign NDDs.

This paper investigates the integration of technical vocabulary in merged language models. We explore knowledge transfer mechanisms involved when combining a general-purpose language-specific model with domain-specific model, focusing on resulting model's comprehension jargon. Our experiments analyze impact this merging process target proficiency handling specialized terminology. present quantitative evaluation performance comparing it that individual constituent The findings offer insights...
