Effect of Childhood Adversity on the Relationship Between Family Resilience and Behavioral or Conduct Problems in Children With Special Healthcare Needs.

Objective: Behavioral or conduct problems (BCPs) are common co-occurring conditions in children with special health care needs (CSHCNs), affecting their developmental and functional milestones. The role of family resilience in mitigating BCPs among these children and how adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) affect this dynamic remain largely unclear. The aim of the study was to disentangle the complex interplay between family resilience, ACEs, and BCPs by examining how ACEs moderate the relationship between family resilience and BCPs.

The Role of Adverse Childhood Experience in the Relationship Between Autism Severity and Early Intervention and Special Education Plan.

The purpose of this study is to examine the association between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) severity and having a special education or early intervention plan and the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on this association. This study used the 2020-2021 National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH) and included 2,537 children aged 3-17 years old who currently have ASD. Multivariable logistic regression, controlling for demographic and family characteristics and health status, was used to explore the association between autism severity and having an early intervention plan.

The impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on sleep adequacy for children with special health care needs (CSHCN) in the United States.

Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), are associated with poor mental and physical health, risky behaviors, chronic diseases in adulthood, and premature death. ACEs are also associated with poor sleep among children and adults. It is not clear if this association is true for children with special health care needs (CSHCN).

The association between adverse childhood experiences and insomnia symptoms from adolescence to adulthood: Evidence from the Add Health study.

Objectives: Adverse childhood experiences are potentially traumatic events that occur up to age 17, including abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. Such trauma often results in chronic stress and poor sleep health, which are linked to negative health outcomes across the lifespan. This study examines the longitudinal association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and insomnia symptoms from adolescence to adulthood.

Pregnancy and delivery characteristics and outcomes in Northwestern Syria: A prospective cohort study.

Objective: Detail a picture of the current pregnancy and delivery characteristics and outcomes in Northwestern Syria.

Methods: This is a prospective observational study, using an electronic health information system, from four healthcare centers in two provinces in Northwestern Syria. We classified the population into two groups: Displaced people are those who live inside refugee camps; and residents are housed outside the camps.

The association between adverse childhood experiences and depression trajectories in the Add Health study.

Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic experiences that occur before age 18. ACEs are linked to depression in adulthood, but little is known about the association between ACEs and depression trajectories across the lifespan.

Objective: To examine the association between specific types of ACEs, cumulative ACE scores, and depression trajectories from adolescence to adulthood.

Masking Behaviors in the Absence of Local Mandate-An Observational Study from Hillsborough County, Florida.

The purpose of this study was to understand the predictors of masking-especially age, race/ethnicity and gender-in Hillsborough County Florida, a region without mask mandates. Masking and social distancing behaviors of individuals were observed in Hillsborough County during one-week intervals in July 2021, August 2021 and Late September-early October 2021. Demographic and behavioral observations were recorded and logistic regression was utilized to determine the odds ratio of wearing a mask amongst various groups.

Association between screen time and obesity in US adolescents: A cross-sectional analysis using National Survey of Children's Health 2016-2017.

Objective: This study examines the association between time spent watching TV, playing video games, using a computer or handheld device (screen time), and BMI among U.S. adolescents, and potential effect modification of these associations by sex, sleep duration, and physical activity.

The effect of opioids on the cognitive function of older adults: results from the Personality and Total Health through life study.

Background: chronic pain, a common complaint among older adults, affects physical and mental well-being. While opioid use for pain management has increased over the years, pain management in older adults remains challenging, due to potential severe adverse effects of opioids in this population.

Objective: we examined the association between opioid use, and changes in cognitive function of older adults.

Trends in anticholinergic and opioid dispensing in older adults from 2004 to 2015: Results from the Personality and Total Health (PATH) Through Life Study.

Objective: Due to potential adverse effects, guidelines recommend that anticholinergics and opioids be avoided in older adults unless necessary. This study examines the dispensing trends of these medications among older Australians.

Methods: Data of 2222 PATH study (60+ cohort) participants were analysed.

Prevalence and management of diabetes among the uninsured: A multicenter study in Tampa Bay, FL.

Aims: This study describes the prevalence and management of uninsured patients with diabetes in free clinics around the Tampa Bay area.

Methods: A retrospective chart review collected data from uninsured patients who visited nine free clinics from January 2016 to December 2017. The data included sociodemographics, chronic disease diagnoses and treatments, and social history.

Sleep duration patterns from adolescence to young adulthood and the risk of asthma.

Purpose: This study examined the association between sleep duration trajectories from adolescence to young adulthood and the risk of asthma into young adulthood.

Methods: Using data from 10,362 participants in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) free of asthma at baseline, we constructed trajectories of sleep duration from adolescence (age 13-18 years) to young adulthood (age 24-32 years) and used them to examine the association between sleep duration patterns and the risk of new-onset asthma using a log-binomial regression model after adjusting for potential confounders.

Results: The results revealed that 14.

The Effect of Cumulative Anticholinergic Use on the Cognitive Function of Older Adults: Results from the Personality and Total Health (PATH) Through Life Study.

Background: Multiple comorbidities are common in older adults, resulting in polypharmacy that often includes medications with anticholinergic properties. These medications have multiple side effects, which are more pronounced in the older population. This study examined the association between the use of anticholinergics and changes in the cognitive function of older adults.

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Headaches Among Children: A Cross-Sectional Analysis.

Objectives: This cross-sectional study examined the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and history of frequent headaches (including migraine) among children 3-17 years old using data from the 2016 and 2017 U.S. National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH).

Sleep Duration Trajectories and Systemic Inflammation in Young Adults: Results From the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health).

Study Objectives: This study examines the effects of short and long sleep duration patterns in young adults on the levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), as well as the potential effect modification by sex.

Methods: Using data from waves III (age 18-26) and IV (age 24-32) of the National Longitudinal study of adolescent to adult health, we examined the association between sleep trajectories in young adults, and the risk of elevated high sensitivity-CRP (hs-CRP), a marker of systemic inflammation.

Results: Short sleep trajectories were associated with significantly elevated log-transformed hs-CRP (coefficient = 0.
