Abstract Background Temporary COVID-19-related restrictions disrupted routine HIV care and viral load (VL) testing for people with HIV (PWH). Whether and when encounters and VL suppression returned to prepandemic levels remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate changes in HIV clinical encounter frequency and VL suppression...

Prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms under population-level alcohol reduction to low-risk drinking: A parametric g-computation analysis in a U.S. nationwide cohort

Reducing alcohol use alone may be insufficient to meaningfully shift the population-wide burden of common mental health disorders, suggesting that reducing alcohol use alone may be insufficient to meaningfully shift the population-wide burden of common mental health disorders.

The Role of Sick-Quitter Bias in the Association Between Alcohol Use and Anxiety and Depression Symptoms: A Causal Analysis in a U.S. National Cohort

The J-shaped pattern between alcohol use and anxiety and depression symptoms observed in the full cohort was attenuated among participants without poorer baseline health, consistent with sick-quitter bias, and caution against interpreting moderate drinking as beneficial for symptoms of anxiety and depression.

The role of physical activity in shaping the relationship between alcohol use and anxiety and depression symptoms: Findings from a U.S. nationwide cohort

Among healthier adults, physical activity modified the association between moderate alcohol use and symptoms of anxiety or depression on additive and multiplicative scales, suggesting sedentary behavior may amplify mental health vulnerability associated with moderate drinking.
