We dichotomized the severity of substance use as low versus moderate to high risk

Regardless, our analyses demonstrate some measure of construct validity in that higher scores on both measures were linked to reporting mental health conditions in our study. Our measure of sexual orientation “outness” was only asked for gay-identified participants, and a general measure should be included in future studies. A nurse-administered structured interview was used to […]

Studies applying CHR criteria to date have focused primarily on psychosis spectrum outcomes

VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 are released in response to inflammation and facilitate the adhesion and migration of immune and viral factors into and across the vascular endothelium . While VCAM-1 is exclusively expressed on endothelial cells, ICAM-1 is also expressed on leukocytes, astrocytes, and microglial cells . uPAR is a glycoprotein expressed on endothelial cells, in addition […]

The SCID was used to rule out psychosis and to identify DSM-IV Axis I or cluster A disorders

HCV-infected women were older than HIV-monoinfected women, and both groups were older than women with neither infection. More than half of all women were African American, with the largest proportion among the HCV-infected group. Compared with HIV-infected women and those with neither infection, HCV-infected women were more likely to report being in menopause, having a […]

AEA also blocks the standing-outward K+ current IKso and induces depolarization in cerebellar granule neurons

The changes in A-type potassium channel gating caused by 2-AG include a shift of the voltage-dependent activation of IA in the depolarizing direction, acceleration of the inactivation kinetics, and reduction of the maximal current for large depolarizations. The IA–inhibiting effect of 2-AG likely results from a direct action on the channel through a membrane lipid […]

Subjective memory complaints were also associated with worse verbal memory

One debate in the HIV literature is the extent to which HIV disease is associated with accelerated aging as opposed to other comorbid conditions or other lifestyle factors associated with HIV. However, it is difficult to differentiate the effect of HIV itself versus the downstream effects of HIV or lifestyle factors associated with risk of contracting […]

Life expectancy for persons living with HIV is now similar to the general population

Given the aforementioned paucity of research in the current literature addressing the contribution of genetic and neurocognitive factors on sexual risk behavior, the primary aim of this study was to examine the main effects of executive functioning as well as the main effects of the COMT Val.Met polymorphism on sexual risk behavior among a ethnically […]

Anxiety disorders and substance use disorders are highly prevalent and frequently cooccur

A “pharmacy data only” model included utilization variables related to medications and opioid use data, similar to what might be available to a pharmacy benefit manager researcher. The CHAID procedure identified a number of significant interactions that met the criteria outlined in the Methods section. These interactions were added to the core variables for each […]

No other aspects of pediatric cardiac arrest management changed during the study period

The guideline emphasized step-wise escalation in airway management from BVM to EGA to ETI, only if the less invasive method was not effective .HFD is a two-tiered 9-1-1 EMS system with Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support units. HFD serves a geographic area totaling 2.3 million persons and 667 square miles in the greater Houston region. The […]

Numerous risk factors have been identified in the literature

Over 70% of elderly patients are not questioned on their ability to care for themselves prior to discharge; 20% disclose that they do not understand their discharge instructions.This subset of the older adult population may have difficulty comprehending and following their discharge instructions. This may lead some patients to return when their initial complaints do […]
