Global neuropsychological impairment and dependence on basic and instrumental activities of daily living are more common among PWH who also use MA than among those who do not, with an additive effect of HIV and MA on neuronal injury and glial activation . Despite these negative effects, perceived benefits, such as sexual enhancement and relief of […]

Eleven percent of the sample did not know or declined to provide income data
Seventeen percent of 12th graders reported past 2-week binge alcohol use in 2020 , defined as five or more drinks on the same occasion on at least 1 day in the past 30 days in males . Adolescents tend to drink more alcohol per occasion, yet less frequently than adults . Binge drinking may have […]
This suggests that placebo effects are a set of adaptive mechanisms that shape nociceptive signaling
The dynamic pain connectome model was derived from brain imaging data in healthy subjects who had mind-wandering away from a painful stimulus. This work found that most brain regions were activated by noxious stimuli whether the mind wandered away from the stimulus or not. The responses of the salience and default mode networks and connectivity […]
Cannabis and alcohol are two of the oldest drugs used by humans
As the VLF and LF are mainly driven by sympathetic activity, RMSSD, NN9, pNN9, and HF are driven by the parasympathetic, SDNN reflects the overall HRV, these results suggested that all of these products decreased the overall HRV, especially the sympathetic modulations. To determine if different smoking/vaping products may induce cardiac fibrosis, heart sections were […]
Research has identified alcohol use as a common element in individuals with a brain injury
The original dataset, with 7875 cases, was used for the missing value replacement method, because as mentioned previously, it is preferrable to include as many predictive variables as possible in the model so that the new replaced/imputed values are indeed best estimates. Once the dataset had the missing variables for age and alcohol screen result […]
The literature review identified no consensus on relevant confounding variables aside from age and gender
The review showed a great variation existed across the studies in types of data collected and methods used, thus severely minimizing comparability. For example, the disparity in measurement of blood alcohol levels considerably reduce the reliability of data related to preinjury intoxication. In the reviewed studies, information on alcohol and substance use was obtained from […]
Motor skills were assessed by the Grooved Pegboard Dominant and Non-dominant Hand tests
Leveraging comprehensive neuropsychological data from the large-scale cohort of the HIV Neurobehavioral Research Program at the University of California-San Diego, we used novel machine learning methods to identify differing profiles of cognitive function in PWH and to evaluate how these profiles differ between women and men in sex-stratified analyses. Rather, than using traditional cognitive domain scores, we […]
Patrick had rallied significant support and funding from teachers unions and school boards in his election
Newsom was endorsed by the California Teachers Association, and the CCSA had organized a group of donors to spend $23 million supporting the campaign of the more pro-charter candidate: former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa . In 2019, Newsom signed a bill that enhances the authority of local school boards to reject new charter schools, […]
Treatment is instrumented by whether a state allows citizen initiatives as discussed above
Analysis using citizen initiative rules as an instrument, though, as discussed above, can provide causal leverage. The key treatment is a measure of state marijuana legalization status at the end of the 116th Congress.In the main analysis, I code the treatment variable as 0 for states with neither medical nor adult-use, 1 for states with […]
These data record the number of registered lobbyists who lobbied on behalf of a particular firm
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration , capacity increased from just under 1700 megawatts in 2010 to nearly 25000 MW in 2019. While this is still just a small fraction of generation capacity overall, in 2016 it accounted for fully 12 percent of new capacity additions, and analysts expect the industry to continue to grow […]
