Open Forum Infect Dis
March 2024
Background: Evaluating the National Institute's Health's (NIH's) response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic via grants and clinical trials is crucial to determining the impact they had on aiding US citizens. We determined how the NIH's funding for COVID-19 research was disbursed and used by various institutions across the United States.
Methods: We queried NIH RePORTER and isolated COVID-19-related grants from January 2020 to December 2021.
Preventing eating disorders in young women: An RCT and mixed-methods evaluation of the peer-delivered Body Project.

Objectives: Young women are at increased risk for eating disorders during adolescence (age range = 16-19), and there is the need for effective, sustainable prevention programs delivered during this critical window of development. The Body Project is a dissonance-based program that reduces key risk factors for disordered eating. Few studies have evaluated the program or the participant experience when peer-delivered at the high school level.

Article Synopsis
- This paper explored the connections between self-esteem, shame-proneness, and symptoms of depression in undergraduate students.
- In study 1, self-esteem was found to be uniquely associated with depressive symptoms, while shame-proneness was not when considered together.
- In study 2, both self-esteem and self-criticism were linked to depression, but neither was significant when controlling for the other, suggesting issues with how self-criticism and self-esteem are measured.
