Clinical Activity During Night-shift: an Ecological Study

Nightshift WorkHandoff Sessions4 more

A convenient sample of internal medicine residents will be observed during their nightshift work in the wards of the department of internal medicine of a university hospital. The epidemiology of night calls and emergencies, including incidence, causes, management, and prognosis, will be assessed prospectively. The impact of nightshift work on sleep, stress, quality of life, regrets, and general well being of the residents observed will be measured through completion of validated questionnaires. Quality of handoff sessions will also be assessed.

Drug Abuse During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Substance AbuseStress1 more

The pandemic we live through has put various sectors of the medical system and its tributaries to the test. The accumulation of external and internal stress has been completely correlated with the predisposition to psycho-emotional problems and, in turn, to drug use as an immature response for ego protection. That is why the economic, social, and psychological evaluation can help understand the current situation about drug abuse and how to help patients afflicted by it. The added stress of personal problems, work alterations, daily life in a pandemic, economic and varied responsibilities, and the understanding of the pandemic have predisposed and amplified the use of drugs to reduce emotional distress perceived by individuals. The hypothesis of this study is that the increment of stress and a lack of preparation for the pandemic are associated with increased drug abuse.

Neural Indications of Stress-Induced Mental Overload

HealthyStress1 more

The aim of the current research is to characterize the complex interaction between stress and cognitive workload. Furthermore, the investigators aim to create a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) inspired Electroencephalogram (EEG) brain-based bio-marker for cognitive load under stress. Secondary project 1 aim: The aim of this study is to characterize the link between sensorimotor network (SMN) within and between functional connectivity following the stress response and its association with physiological indices and self-report measures. Secondary project 2 aim: To elucidate temporal alterations of topological patterns (i.e., integration and segregation), the investigators seek to examine resting state fMRI data before and after a cognitive load task and an acute stress induction.

Impact of Maternal Stress on Infant Stunting

Maternal; MalnutritionInfant Malnutrition7 more

This study takes place in rural Mam-Mayan communities of Guatemala characterized by high rates of childhood stunting. It aims to characterize women's exposure to nutrition, infection and psychosocial stressors vs. resilience factors, to evaluate the cumulative impact of maternal-level factors (nutritional, infectious, psychosocial), social factors (autonomy, social support, domestic violence), and household factors (socioeconomic status, food security) on early infant growth, and to evaluate whether maternal cortisol may be a mediator in the vertical transmission of stress.
