There is evidence that virtual reality (VR) pain distraction effective at improving pain-related outcomes. However, more research needed to investigate VR environments with other goals. The main aim of this study was compare the differential effects two on a set and cognitive variables during cold pressor experiment. One these aimed distract attention away from (VRD), whereas designed enhance control (VRC). Participants were 77 psychology students, who randomly assigned one following three...
Abstract During the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, COVIDiSTRESS Consortium launched an open-access global survey to understand and improve individuals’ experiences related crisis. A year later, we extended this line research by launching a new address dynamic landscape pandemic. This was released with goal addressing diversity, equity, inclusion working over 150 researchers across globe who collected data in 48 languages dialects 137 countries. The resulting cleaned dataset described here...
Mental health conditions may affect outcome of COVID-19 disease, while exposure to stressors during the pandemic impact mental health. The purpose this study was examine these factors in relation ocurrence depression and anxiety after first outbreak Spain.We contacted 9515 participants from a population-based cohort Catalonia between May October 2020. We drew blood samples establish infection virus. Pre-pandemic were confirmed through Electronic Health Registries. used Hospital Anxiety...
Primary stressors are direct outcomes of extreme events (e.g., viruses, floodwater) whereas secondary stem from pre-disaster life circumstances and societal arrangements illness, problematic policies) or inefficient responses to the event. Secondary can cause significant long-term damage people affected but also tractable amenable change. In this study we explored association between stressors, social identity processes, support, perceived stress resilience. Pre-registered analyses data...
Exposure of the thyroid gland to ionizing radiation at a young age is main recognized risk factor for differentiated cancer. After Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear accidents, cancer screening was implemented mainly children, leading case over-diagnosis as seen in South Korea after implementation opportunistic (where subjects are recruited healthcare sites). The aim reduce morbidity mortality, but can also cause negative effects on health (with unnecessary treatment if over-diagnosis) quality...
Background The neurological symptoms of Long COVID (LC) and the impact neuropsychological manifestations on people’s daily lives have been extensively described. Although a large body literature describes symptoms, validating this with objective measures is important. This study aims to identify describe effects cognition, balance, retinal fundus, determine whether duration influences cognitive impairment. Methods cross-sectional involved LC volunteers complaint from public health centers in...
Background: Breastfeeding mothers have an increased demand for nutrients, including intake of certain and are recommended to consume a theoretical 500 extra kilocalories (kcal), follow varied diet, increase protein, carbohydrate, omega-3, iron, vitamin D intake. Objectives: We sought analyze mothers' energy nutrient food habits during the postpartum period 6 weeks after delivery identify whether there any differences between breastfeeding non-breastfeeding mothers. Methods: This was...
Over 300,000 women in Russia face perinatal depressive disorders every year, according to the data for middle-income countries. This study is first attempt perform a two-phase of Russia. The paper examines risk factors symptoms, such as marital satisfaction, birth experience, and childcare sharing. At 15-40 gestational weeks (M = 30.7, SD 6.6), 343 Russian-speaking women, with mean age 32 years (SD 4.4), completed Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, Couples Satisfaction Index, Birth...
Physical activity (PA) has been shown to be related physical and mental health. Yet there are few studies on how the frequency of PA relates health a healthy lifestyle. We aimed investigate different PAs is associated with following indicators: body mass index (BMI), substance consumption, health, focused three types PA: (1) medium- high-intensity aerobic exercise; (2) low- medium-intensity relaxing (3) outdoor leisure PA. A total 9617 volunteers, aged 19 81, participated in study. The...
Few studies have explored the effects of n utero radiation exposure on human health and cognition none taken into account thyroid hormone levels (T3), which shown to affect cognitive performance. We investigated mechanisms possible IQ in two cohorts 250 persons each: exposed after Chernobyl accident: a 'higher group (HEG)', whose mothers resided more heavily contaminated territories at time accident, 'lesser (LEG)' less areas. The dataset included information estimated prenatal dose,...
Previous studies have reported certain sex differences in motor performance precision. The aim of the present study was to analyze fine precision for both hands under different test conditions. Fine tasks were performed by 220 Spanish participants (ages: 12-95), tracing over provided models - lines 40 mm hands, two sensory conditions (PV-proprioceptive-visual; P-proprioceptive only) and three movement types (F-frontal, T-transversal, S-sagittal). Differences line length (the task focused on...
This paper, the last in Special Issue (SI) on SHAMISEN project, presents an overview of Recommendations for Preparedness and Health Surveillance Populations Affected by a Radiation Accident. The recommendations are based lessons learnt from previous nuclear accidents, engagement activities with different stakeholder groups, described other papers this SI. project developed total 28 recommendations. They include general recommendations, applicable across all phases accident, specific each...
The differences in fine motor precision over line model different sensorial conditions (visual-proprioceptive and proprioceptive only) for movement directions (transverse, frontal, sagittal) both hands were measured digitally with use of special software. observed variables directional (D) formal (F) deviations, together changes length (LL) from the base model. Analysis indicated non-significant all hand use, while remaining factors (sensory test condition direction), significant levels....
In this chapter the author summarises descriptions of proprioceptive sense from different perspectives.The importance has been shown in developmental psychology, both earlier and later stages individuum formation.The emphasises role proprioception as a basis personality individual differences construct.The assessing behaviour at multiple levels pointed out by experiments classic modern researchers that should include not only verbal tests would be more important for conscious mental...
Abstract Introduction Breastfeeding (BF) is the healthiest form of nutrition for babies and recommended exclusively (EBF) at least first six months life. The carbon footprint formula feeding (FF) has been studied, but that BF unknown. Aim To identify environmental impact three types infant taking into account accessories needed diet postpartum women in baby’s month Methods This a multicentre, cross-sectional study conducted Barcelona North Metropolitan Area (Catalonia, Spain). participating...
Previous studies have found that the development of mathematical abilities, along with executive functions, predict students’ subsequent academic performance. The present study aimed to assess effectiveness teaching concept area preschool children different levels cognitive processes (CP) including functions and short-term memory. experiment introduced by using three instructional approaches: traditional, contextual, modeling. sample included 100 aged 6–7 years (M = 6.5 years), whom 43% were...
