  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/eimWMqvdxks   Going to sleep one hour earlier can reduce the risk of major depression by 23%.  So say investigators at Harvard and the University of Colorado at Boulder following their study of nearly 850,000 persons.   The data shows that a propensity to falling asleep at an earlier time was associated with a reduced risk of major depressive illness.  The average bedtime for those in the study was 11 pm.   Other studies show night owls can be twice as likely as early risers to suffer from depression.  As the pandemic ends during which many worked remotely, slept lately, and stayed up later, we hope that our sleep patterns will contribute to happier moods.   https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/article-abstract/2780428   #sleep #mood #depression #pandemic  

  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/OVhnRPT-mAI   An experimental CoVid vaccine based on the the B.1.351 South African variant appears to induce protective neutralizing antibodies against all principal CoVid variants and the original strain.  Chinese investigators studied this novel vaccine in a mouse model.   The B.1.351 spike protein contains 3 of the principals mutations found in CoVid variants of concern including the British B.1.117 and the Brazilian P.1.  The best antibody levels against original CoVid and the variants was induced by two doses of the B.1.351 vaccine.  Two doses of the original vaccine and boosting with either a 3rd dose of the original or the B.1.351 vaccine produced comparable protection.   https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.16.444369v1.full.pdf+html   #CoVid #variants #vaccine  

  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/s6TXMBwzLyU   Bunking with a pet appears not to disrupt a healthy night’s sleep.  Canadian pediatric sleep researchers studied 188 kids 11 to 17 years of age with data culled from standardized sleep questionnaires, a formal home sleep study, and two weeks of electronic nighttime monitoring.   Of the total, 34.6% of children slept with their pets frequently or sometimes.  Those sleeping most often with pets showed the highest overall sleep quality, but the data showed it took them the longest to fall asleep.  Otherwise, the presence of pets had no significant effect on sleep patterns including nighttime awakenings.   Some children have difficulty falling asleep without a parent. A pet may be a healthier alternative.   https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352721821000280?via%3Dihub   #sleep #parenting #children #pets
