Although physical disability impairs social integration, we also found that cognitive and anxiety symptoms uniquely influenced the ability to integrate into social roles and may reduce overall QoL...
This assessment is further complicated by the lack of consensus among researchers on the neuropsychological instruments used and the absence of well-matched control groups. Aspects like having a biological parent as caregiver, higher household income or caregiver's cognitive functioning have been related...

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a mental health disorder associated with significant mortality, serious functional impairment, and reduced quality of life (QoL) [1,2]. The global prevalence of MDD, often a recurrent condition, has increased worldwide in recent decades, more so during the COV...

Pregnenolone thus outperformed placebo by approximately 8 points on the SANS assessment, a difference that may be clinically relevant. SANS subscales are also provided in Table 2, although this information should be interpreted with caution given the small number of subjects in this study. This ...
