Predicting fatigue-related aberrant driving behaviours in taxi drivers
Taxi drivers face elevated risks of fatigue-related aberrant driving behaviours (ADBs), exacerbated by sleep-related factors, yet predictive models incorporating these factors remain underexplored. This study employed a multi-modal approach to assess the predictive value of heart rate variability (HRV) metrics for fatigue-related ADBs and to assess the added value of integrating demographic and sleep data. A four-day naturalistic driving study in…
Efficacy of neurofeedback-assisted mindfulness for anxiety and nomophobia in Spanish young adults
Background Problematic use of new technologies has been associated with anxiety and other disorders in young adults. This study evaluated the efficacy of a Neurofeedback-Assisted Mindfulness Training Program (NAMTP) in reducing anxiety and related symptoms in young adults. Methods A randomized clinical trial assigned participants to an intervention group (IG), receiving 20-25 NAMTP sessions, or a control group (CG). All participants received a br…
Study protocol of a proposed Neurofeedback-Assisted Mindfulness Training Program on symptoms of anxiety and psychological distress associated with smartphone use in young adults
Background: Nomophobia is a specific phobia characterized by the appearance of anxiety, nervousness, discomfort and distress when the mobile phone is not used and is considered an emerging public health problem because of the negative consequences on the physical and mental health of young people and adolescents, especially women. Neurofeedback-Assisted Mindfulness Training Programs may prove beneficials for improving self-control abilities, a ke…
Associations between air pollution, intracellular-to-extracellular water distribution, and obstructive sleep apnea manifestations
Background Exposure to air pollution may be a risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) because air pollution may alter body water distribution and aggravate OSA manifestations. Objectives This study aimed to investigate the mediating effects of air pollution on the exacerbation of OSA severity through body water distribution. Methods This retrospective study analyzed body composition and polysomnographic data collected from a sleep center in…
Temporal consistency of neurovascular components on awakening
Sleep inertia (SI) is a time period during the transition from sleep to wakefulness wherein individuals perceive low vigilance with cognitive impairments; SI is generally identified by longer reaction times (RTs) in attention tasks immediately after awakening followed by a gradual RT reduction along with waking time. The sluggish recovery of vigilance in SI involves a dynamic process of brain functions, as evidenced in recent functional magnetic …
Using WHODAS 2.0 to Assess Functional Impairment in People with Depression
Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a highly prevalent mental disorder which causes public health burden and personal disabilities. In people with mental illness, unemployment is an index character of functional impairment. Methods: Using the Taiwan Databank of Persons with Disability (TDPD), we collected the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) scores for people with MDD-associated disability. We recorded and analyzed t…
Coronary Artery Spasm as Related to Anxiety and Depression
OBJECTIVE: Anxiety and depression are risk factors for obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), but their effects on coronary artery spasm (CAS) remain unestablished. METHODS: Patient records in this population-based study were retrospectively collected from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Using propensity score matching, we used 1:1:1 ratio stratification into a control group of 10,325 individuals without CAS or CAD, a …
Functional Correlates of Resting-State Connectivity in the Default Mode Network of Heroin Users on Methadone Treatment and Medication-Free Therapeutic Community Program
The treatment of heroin addiction is a complex process involving changes in addictive behavior and brain functioning. The goal of this study was to explore the brain default mode network (DMN) functional connectivity using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and decision-making performance based on the Cambridge gambling task in heroin-dependent individuals undergoing methadone treatment (MT, n = 11) and medication-free …
Increased Risk of Acute Myocardial Infarction for Patients With Panic Disorder
OBJECTIVE: To examine prospectively the relationship between a diagnosis of panic disorder and the risk of acute myocardial infarction within 1 year of follow-up. Panic disorder is associated prospectively with coronary artery disease, but the risk of acute myocardial infarction associated with panic disorder has not been specifically investigated. METHOD: This nationwide population-based study used data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance …
No Higher Risk of Myocardial Infarction Among Bipolar Patients in a 6-Year Follow-Up of Acute Mood Episodes
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to estimate the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) among bipolar disorder patients during a 6-year follow-up after acute mood episodes. The risk is compared with that of a cohort of patients who underwent appendectomy operations during the same period. METHODS: We used administrative claims data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database covering the years 1997-2002, with the two study c…
The association between timely outpatient visits and the likelihood of rehospitalization for schizophrenia patients
Early rehospitalization is common in schizophrenia. Given the impact on cost containment, there is an urgent need to identify the predictors of rehospitalization. This study aims to examine the association between the frequency of timely outpatient visits and the likelihood of early rehospitalization in schizophrenia patients. After adjusting for gender, age, substance use, and length of stay, patients failing to attend any outpatient appointment…
