Like Most parents would support age restrictions for tackle footballApril 1, 2019 at 5:09 PM While there are many physical and mental health benefits of playing youth sports and the risk of concussions is relatively low, as many as 1.9 million kids ages five to 18 get concussions from sports and other recreational activities each year, researchers note in Pediatrics. Other popular youth sports recommend against certain plays that carry a high risk of concussions. "The goal of restricting tackling to older youth would be to decrease the risk of injury, by decreasing exposure to collision...Tags: News, Seattle, Research Institute, Sara Chrisman Young cannabis users have increased risk of depression and suicidal behaviorFebruary 13, 2019 at 2:40 PM Adolescent cannabis use has been linked to an increased risk of depression and suicidal behavior in young adulthood, according to the first meta-analysis by a team of scientists at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre and McGill University, in collaboration with the University of Oxford and Rutgers University-Camden, which is published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry today.Tags: Health, University of Oxford, McGill University, JAMA Psychiatry, Research Institute, McGill University Health Centre, Rutgers University Camden 4 people like this.

Like Pregnancy-related conditions taken together leave moms -- and dads -- at riskNovember 14, 2017 at 12:00 AM Scientists at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre in Montreal show that the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease post pregnancy is drastically higher if the women had both diabetes and high blood pressure while being pregnant. The study doesn't end with the mother's risks. The father's risks also rise if the mother has one gestational condition and rises even higher if she has both.Tags: Science, Montreal, Research Institute, McGill University Health Centre 7 people like this. Like Giving rookie dads the online info they really needOctober 31, 2017 at 12:00 AM Expectant and new parents often turn to the internet for parenting prep, but it turns out that dads often don't seem to find the information they say they need about pregnancy, parenthood and routes to their own mental health and well-being.
