Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder01:30

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

67
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

2.4K
The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...

Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding

100
Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...

Regression Toward the Mean01:52

Regression Toward the Mean

6.3K
Regression toward the mean (“RTM”) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when...

Socioemotional Development during Infancy01:30

Socioemotional Development during Infancy

55
Socio-emotional development in infancy is primarily shaped by early emotional responses and social connections, with temperament playing a central role. Temperament refers to the consistent patterns in an individual's emotional and behavioral responses, observable even in infancy. By examining temperament, researchers can better understand an infant's unique ways of interacting with the world, influencing subsequent personality and socio-emotional growth.

The Nativist Approach01:21

The Nativist Approach

50
The nativist approach to infant cognitive development proposes that infants are born with inherent knowledge structures that allow them to interpret the world almost immediately. This perspective contrasts with earlier developmental theories, such as those proposed by Jean Piaget, which emphasized a more gradual acquisition of cognitive abilities through interaction with the environment. One key concept in this approach is object permanence — the understanding that objects continue to...

Summary

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) did not show a direct link to preterm delivery (PTD) in a large study. Further research is needed to understand ACEs

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Reproductive Health
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Racial and socioeconomic status (SES) disparities in preterm delivery (PTD) persist in the U.S.
  • Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may increase risks for adverse birth outcomes, with existing racial and SES disparities in ACE prevalence.
  • Research is needed to determine if ACEs contribute to racial and SES disparities in PTD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the relationship between ACEs and PTD.
  • To identify subgroups of women based on ACE patterns.
  • To investigate if race and SES influence ACE patterns or their association with PTD.

Main Methods:

  • Longitudinal study of 3,884 women from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (1994-2018).
  • Latent class analysis used to identify subgroups based on ACE occurrence.
  • Analysis examined the association between latent class membership (LCM) and PTD, and the influence of race and SES.

Main Results:

  • Two latent classes were identified: low ACEs and high ACEs.
  • The high ACEs class showed increased probabilities of emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and foster care placement.
  • Neither latent class was significantly associated with PTD, and race and SES did not predict LCM.

Conclusions:

  • ACEs may not impact PTD risk as previously hypothesized.
  • Future research should explore ACEs' impact on live birth pregnancies.
  • Investigating protective factors that may mitigate ACEs' effects on PTD is recommended.
