Behavioral responses vary between individuals and may be repeated in different contexts over time. When a behavioral response set is linked and present regardless of the context, it characterizes a behavioral syndrome. By evaluating how bold and shy (profiles related to risk-taking) individuals perform about exploration and anxiety, we can predict relationships of behavioral syndromes and better understand how different axis of personality is formed. Here we classified the profiles by risk-taking and evaluated their exploration behavior in the open field test. In this context, the two groups showed significant differences in thigmotaxis behavior: bold individuals habituate faster and show decreased thigmotaxis (less anxiety), while shy ones are less prone to leave the security of the side areas of the open tank and present higher anxiety. We emphasized the importance of further investigating the behavior of these profiles in other contexts and the importance of each one for the evolution and fitness of the species, in addition to a better understanding of which behaviors are involved in the behavioral syndromes in zebrafish.

Enhancing patient representation learning with inferred family pedigrees improves disease risk prediction.
J Am Med Inform Assoc

Background: Machine learning and deep learning are powerful tools for analyzing electronic health records (EHRs) in healthcare research. Although family health history has been recognized as a major predictor for a wide spectrum of diseases, research has so far adopted a limited view of family relations, essentially treating patients as independent samples in the analysis.
Methods: To address this gap, we present ALIGATEHR, which models inferred family relations in a graph attention network augmented with an attention-based medical ontology representation, thus accounting for the complex influence of genetics, shared environmental exposures, and disease dependencies.
Full throttle: are motorcyclists as risk-taking as we think?
Curr Issues Personal Psychol
June 2024
: Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada.
Background: Motorcycling, whether thought of as a leisure activity, hobby, or social activity, can add quality to one's life. Being a member of a motorcycle club may promote a sense of community, while motorcycling itself may increase feelings of awe and joy. When conceptualized as part of one's social identity, motorcycling tends to be associated with an unfavourable image or stereotype, wherein motorcyclists' personalities are characterized as rebellious, prone to risk-taking behaviour, and masculine (regardless of the motorcyclist's gender).

Background: The prevalence of syphilis, Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) in men who have sex with men (MSM) is very high. As these bacterial sexually transmitted infections (bSTIs) are frequently asymptomatic, they are often undiagnosed and therefore untreated. We aimed to characterize the profile of MSM who reported bSTI screening and diagnosis in the previous 12 months, and to identify the factors associated with a diagnosis of a bSTI among MSM in France.

Through the commercial determinants of health framework, gambling has been identified as a powerful threat to health. This research critically examines cryptocurrency, which is promoted and sold as a highly gamblified product. Using the commercial determinants of health framework, the multifaceted ways in which cryptocurrency firm operations may impact health outcomes are highlighted.

Background: Tirzepatide is a novel dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP)-glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist being evaluated for the treatment of various metabolic disorders. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized data on the effects of tirzepatide on serum lipid levels.
Methods: We systematically searched the PubMed and ClinicalTrials.
