To characterize sleep profiles in individuals with neurogenetic disorders (NGDs) and examine the contribution of key clinical and psychiatric symptoms to these profiles.
There is a lack of digital gatekeeper resources developed for parents to assist them in recognising and responding to mental health problems in their children and adolescents. We aimed to address this by exploring parents' mental health information needs, and to iteratively develop and design a resource incorporating their feedback.
Conversion practices (sometimes referred to as 'conversion therapy') refer to interventions that aim to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity. While these are often associated with faith-based settings, they can also occur in secular healthcare contexts. The practices are associated with significant psychological harm.
Off-label antipsychotic prescribing for non-psychotic disorders is increasing, often at low doses and over extended periods. While cardiometabolic adverse effects are documented among individuals treated with antipsychotics for psychotic disorders, the consequences of long-term off-label antipsychotic use are not well-known.
This study quantifies the short-term risk profiles of seven severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 virus (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines-Comirnaty Bivalent BA.1, Comirnaty Bivalent BA.4-5, Comirnaty XBB.1.5, Spikevax Bivalent BA.1, Spikevax Bivalent BA.4-5, Spikevax XBB.1.5 and Nuvaxovid-administered as booster doses in Australia.
Social anxiety, peer victimisation, and social support are key issues during mid-childhood that provide important influence in the later adolescent years. While extensive research has evaluated these constructs in isolation and during adolescence, almost no longitudinal studies have evaluated relationships between them during mid-childhood.
Plastic pyrolysis oil, which can be produced with similar properties as diesel fuel (plastic diesel), can be used as an alternative to mineral diesel (ULSD) to run a diesel engine. This presents a potential method for recycling waste plastic. Typically plastic diesel is blended with mineral diesel, and oxygenated fuel additives such as ethers added to improve resulting fuel properties.
Masculine norms influence men's health and wellbeing. In Australia, interest in the role of these masculine norms resulted in an assessment of masculine norm adherence being included in the Ten to Men Study, measured using the 22-item version of the Conformity to Masculine Norms Inventory.
