We investigated whether mood and lifestyle-related indicators of physical health are differentially expressed according to self-reported levels depressive symptoms among young adults with a current episode major depression. In cross-sectional study, we recruited 94 (females = 67, 71.3%; males 27, 28.7%; aged 18-35 years) assessed their the Profile Mood States (POMS), Beck Anxiety Inventory-(BAI), sleep Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), activity Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire...
The understanding of biological responses to psychedelics with antidepressant potential is imperative. Here we report how a set acute parameters, namely emotional (depressive symptoms), cognitive (psychedelic experience), and physiological (salivary cortisol), recorded during an ayahuasca dosing session, modulated serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cortisol (SC), interleukin 6 (IL-6), plasma C-reactive protein (CRP), salivary awakening response (CAR).
To investigate the joint association of sports participation and smartphone screen time (ST) with anxiety symptoms in school adolescents.

Sports was measured Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire Adolescents, classifying participants as or non-sports participation. ST digital well-being function smartphone,...
Chronic drug abuse has been shown to cause dysfunctions on the frontal lobe and affect cognition, cardiac autonomic control psychosocial aspects. Despite physical exercise improve cerebral functioning, effects of a high intensity training program needs be further explored in condition. The patient was 32-year-old male who an alcohol crack/cocaine user for 20 years. protocol consisted four 30-second “all-out” bouts performed three times per week during weeks. participant had...
The increase in inflammatory cytokines associated with a reduction the bioavailability of zinc has been used as marker for inflammation. Despite high state found institutionalized older individuals, few studies have proposed verifying factors this condition population. To verify inflamm-aging people. A total 178 people (≥ 60 years old) living nursing homes Natal/RN were included study. Cluster analysis was to identify three groups according their state. Analysis anthropometric, biochemical,...
While drug use has been shown to impair cardiac autonomic regulation, exercise might overcome some of the damage. Herein, we describe how individuals with substance disorder (SUD) have their heart rate variability (HRV) and drug-related behaviors negatively affected in response a stressor. However, show cardiorespiratory fitness may attenuate those impairments control. Fifteen SUD were matched 15 non-SUD by age, weight, height, level, had HRV responses under stress induced Cold Pressor Test...
Several studies are limited by verifying the level of physical activity with questionnaires and not through objective measurement in older adults. This article aims to analyze association between a low accelerometry) mobility limitation A population-based cross-sectional study conducted 543 Multiple regression analysis was performed using hierarchical analysis, grouping variables into two blocks ordered according precedence which they acted on outcomes. Among evaluated adults, 13.7%...
