The striatal D dopamine receptor (DR) and A adenosine receptor (AR) signaling pathways play important roles in drug-related behaviors. These receptors activate the G protein comprised of a specific combination of αβγ subunits. During assembly, the γ subunit sets the cellular level of the G protein.

Since its role in humans is not fully defined, we used an unbiased computational approach to assess the clinical significance of rare () genetic variants found among 51,289 whole-exome sequences from the DiscovEHR cohort. Rare coding variants were binned according to predicted pathogenicity and analyzed by sequence kernel association testing to reveal significant associations with disease diagnostic codes for epilepsy and migraine, among others.

To provide this information, both daily symptom surveys and wearable device monitoring could have utility, assuming there is a sufficiently high level of participant adherence. Purpose The aim of this study is to evaluate adherence to a daily symptom survey and a wearable device (Oura Ring) among healthcare professionals (attending physicians and other clinical staff) and trainees (residents and medical students) in a hospital setting during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
