Social support and cognitive reappraisal in adolescent females: The moderating role of lifetime stressor exposure.

Although social support is known to shape how individuals use emotion regulation strategies such as cognitive reappraisal, little is known about the specific dimensions of social support that facilitate such use and whether this use is moderated by lifetime stressor exposure. To investigate, we harnessed data from 47 adolescent females who participated in the Psychobiology of Stress and Adolescent Depression (PSY SAD) study to examine how six dimensions of social support related to youths' use of cognitive reappraisal. In addition, we investigated whether lifetime stressor exposure moderated the association between social support and cognitive reappraisal use in this sample.

Evaluation of the Association between Insulin Resistance and Subclinical Hypothyroidism Using Triglyceride-Glucose Index: a Cross-Sectional Study.

Triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a relatively new surrogate marker of insulin resistance, which is cost-effective and easily calculated with routine lab tests. Data about association of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) and insulin resistance, especially with reference to TyG index, is lacking.
