The menace of obesity to depression and anxiety prevalence
The incidence of depression and anxiety is amplified by obesity. Mounting evidence reveals
that the psychiatric consequences of obesity stem from poor diet, inactivity, and visceral …

Sex-dependent effects of in utero cannabinoid exposure on cortical function
Cannabinoids can cross the placenta, thus may interfere with fetal endocannabinoid
signaling during neurodevelopment, causing long-lasting deficits. Despite increasing reports …
