Accurate estimation of SNP-heritability from biobank-scale data irrespective of genetic architecture. [PDF]

, 2019
SNP-heritability is a fundamental quantity in the study of complex traits. Recent studies have shown that existing methods to estimate genome-wide SNP-heritability can yield biases when their assumptions are violated.

Estimation of genetic variation in residual variance in female and male broiler chickens [PDF]

, 2008
In breeding programs, robustness of animals and uniformity of end product can be improved by exploiting genetic variation in residual variance. Residual variance can be defined as environmental variance after accounting for all identifiable effects.

Cannabidiol in Anorexia Nervosa: A Double‐Blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Pilot Study to Test Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Symptom Change

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe psychiatric disorder marked by an intense fear of gaining weight and persistent body dissatisfaction, both during periods of underweight and after weight restoration. The endocannabinoid system may offer therapeutic benefits, particularly in reducing anxiety.

A Meta‐Analysis and Systematic Review of Single‐Session Interventions for Eating Disorders

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is a critical gap between the need for eating disorder (ED) treatment and provider availability. Single‐Session Interventions (SSIs) are structured programs intentionally designed for a single client encounter and show promise for filling ED‐treatment and prevention gaps by enhancing accessibility of evidence‐based ...

Efficacy of the Intervention Against the Stigmatization of Men With Eating Disorders in Primary Healthcare (iSMEsH): Results From a Randomized Waitlist‐Controlled Study

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Eating disorders (EDs) in men are underdiagnosed and undertreated, partly due to stigma hindering help‐seeking. This randomized waitlist‐controlled study tested the efficacy of the iSMEsH online anti‐stigma intervention targeting German general practitioners (GPs) and medical students.

Safe and Sound: Is Safeness a Specific Affective Dimension Related to Eating Disorder Behaviors?

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Safeness is a warm, soothing emotional state that is often experienced in the presence of close others. Safeness is thought to be distinct from other positive emotions or the absence of negative emotions and is shown to predict mental health variables over and above other emotions.

A computationally efficient algorithm to leverage average information REML for (co)variance component estimation in the genomic era

Genetics Selection Evolution
Background Methods for estimating variance components (VC) using restricted maximum likelihood (REML) typically require elements from the inverse of the coefficient matrix of the mixed model equations (MME). As genomic information becomes more prevalent,
