The present study aims to reveal the change of human microbiome in response to the sailing environment in a 1-month period, and its implication for human health.
A randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, exploratory two-arm trial to assess the effects of CBD on driving ability along with changes in psychological status (i.e. mood, drowsiness, sedation) and cognitive function. Forty healthy West Virginia University (WVU) students will be allocated and randomized to receive: (1) 300 mg of pure CBD oil or (N=20) (2) placebo matched in appearance and taste (N=20). After consuming the study drug, each individual will participate in a 25-35-minute driving simulation and their driving performance measured. To assess changes in psychological status (i.e. mood, drowsiness, sedation) and drug impairment-related cognitive function, the Visual Analog Mood Scale, Stanford Sleepiness Scale , Digital Symbol Substitution Test, Trail Making Test Part A and B, Psychomotor Vigilance Test, and Simple Reaction Time test will also be administered to participants at baseline (prior to study drug consumption) and following completion of the driving simulation test. The entire protocol will be completed in one day and should take 4-4.5 hours to complete for each participant.
The objective of this project is to investigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on frontline healthcare workers, and determine if a virtual music therapy can improve mood and emotional state in this population. For this pilot study, EEG will also be used to assess measures of functional connectivity, attention, and mood in adult participants. Participants will also be evaluated for measures of emotion using a standardized test battery (NIH toolbox). This pilot study will show how frontline healthcare workers have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and provide evidence as to the effectiveness of Music Therapy to support mental health in this essential population.
This randomized cross-over double-blinded trial aims to investigate the health effect of oral l-tryptophan supplementation on workers who rotate night shift work, and to examine the influences of different frequencies and timings of supplementation on the health effects.
Background: Insufficient physical activity is one of the leading risk factors of death worldwide. Behavioral treatments delivered via smartphone apps, hold great promise for helping people engage in healthy behaviors including becoming more physically active. However, similar to 'face-to-face' treatments, effects typically do not seem to be sustained over longer periods of time. Methods: the investigators developed a smartphone application that uses different types of motivational and feedback text-messaging to motivate individuals to increase physical activity. Here, participants are randomized to either receive messages by a uniform random distribution (n=50), or chosen by a reinforcement learning algorithm (n=50), which learns from daily participant data to personalize the frequency and type of motivation of messages. Objectives: In the current study, the investigators examine this application in undergraduate and graduate students at the University of California, Berkeley. The investigators compare whether participants in the uniform random or adaptive group have higher increases in steps during the study. The investigators also examine the effect of the different types of messages on step counts. Further the investigators assess the influence of patient characteristics, such as socio-demographic, psychological questionnaire scores and baseline physical activity on the effect of the adaptive arm and effectiveness of the messages. Finally, the investigators assess participant qualitative feedback on the text-messaging program, through feedback provided via questionnaires, text-message and phone interviews.

The study evaluates the effectiveness of yoga practices on reducing stress, negative emotion, anxiety, and depression and on increasing positive emotion, wellbeing and resilience. The study uses randomized wait-list control. All U.S. undergraduate students in 4-year universities and colleges age 18 or older are eligible to participate.
Previous research has suggested that high levels of systemic inflammation can contribute to cognitive deficits and additional health problems; consumption of polyphenols have been shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect. Resveratrol, a polyphenol found primarily in red grape skins, has previously been shown to improve brain blood flow and possibly brain function and may potentially reduce systemic inflammation, however there is limited research into this. This study will investigate the effects of 4 weeks daily consumption of resveratrol on inflammation and cognitive function in healthy adults.
The purpose of this placebo-controlled, double-blind study is to determine the effects of a commercially available (i.e. dietary supplement) Hemp Oil Extract product on various markers of physical and mental stress resilience, and perceived recovery from normal daily physical & mental stress. Secondary purposes are to collect information on perceived appetite, mood, feelings of wellbeing, sleep quality, body composition and safety information via standard clinical chemistry panels of sera and plasma.
