The important immune cells in the brain are called microglia acting as the central junction between neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases. In patients of cognitive disorders and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) animal models, amoebic morphology and inflammatory pathways are activated to release numerous cells in the inflammatory factors by active microglia.

This study is the first of its kind to diachronically analyze how the use of language surrounding anxiety has changed in each version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Using corpus linguistic technology, the collocations of the word “anxiety” were analyzed and ranked using log dice to determine the strength of associations both within and across each version of this clinical guide. 

Dental fear and anxiety can have a significant effect on an individual, ultimately leading to a poor oral health-related quality of life. Many develop fear and anxiety due to an unfortunate experience at the dentist during their childhood. Dentists, with proper training, can treat children and provide behavior management techniques to complete treatment in a positive manner. These behavior management techniques focus on decreasing the fear and anxiety toward a dental procedure and assisting the child to develop the proper skills needed to cope with such procedures in the future. 

This commentary calls for integrated mental health interventions to address anxiety, perfectionism, and coping mechanisms among Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students and other healthcare programs. Healthcare programs, with their rigorous academic and clinical demands, often leave students facing significant psychological stress, which can impact their learning and future professional performance.

Introduction: Recent studies suggest that compassion, particularly self-compassion, is often perceived as contrary to effective leadership and organizational success, that self-compassion, which impacts emotion regulation through the acceptance of negative emotions, may be an adaptive strategy for managing stress and benefit for resilience at work, and that self-compassion is associated with happiness and inversely related to anxiety and depression. This can be taken together with the importance of job-related affective well-being, where low LPLA (Low Pleasurable Low Arousal emotions) and high LPHA (Low Pleasurable High Arousal emotions) can correlate to depression, anxiety, and stress.
