New researchA Prospective Cohort Study of Influences on Externalizing Behaviors Across Childhood: Results From a Nurse Home Visiting Randomized Controlled Trial

Method
Full details of the study, including participant retention rates and visit attendance patterns, have been published.15, 21, 22 A total of 1,289 eligible women, living in highly disadvantaged urban neighborhoods, were consecutively recruited from a public system for obstetric and pediatric care between 1990 and 1991. Of these, 151 declined to participate. In all, 1,138 primarily self-described African American women at less than 29 weeks gestation with no previous live births and with at least 2
Results
Mothers’ demographic characteristics are presented in Table S1 (available online). CBCL ED continuous total scores were correlated over time (r = 0.57–0.23, p < .0001) (Figure S1, available online).
Discussion
This is a substudy using data derived from a longitudinal study of the effects of prenatal and infancy NHV on health outcomes in a group of urban, predominantly African American mothers and their firstborn children in Memphis, TN. Previous publications based on this dataset (discussed later here) have focused on outcomes in children at the time points 2, 6, 9, and 12 years; however, this is the first longitudinal analysis. This is the first published article to include genetic analyses.

Alcohol use disorders among adult children of alcoholics (ACOAs): Gene-environment resilience factors
2021, Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :As a cascade effect, self-medication with alcohol might then prevent the adoption of more mature and efficient coping strategies,exacerbating the problem (Marmorstein et al., 2010). The association between AUD and the risk genotypes of 5HTTLPR and Taq1A polymorphisms confirms previous studies in ACOAs (Brown-rice et al., 2018; Ratsma et al., 2001) and in longitudinal cohorts (Enoch et al., 2016). Interestingly, the cluster with both the low risk genotypes LL and CC, that does not have the short-allele for the serotonin transporter nor the t-substitution in the dopamine receptor, was not associated with resilience through AUD.
Prenatal parenting
2017, Current Opinion in PsychologyCitation Excerpt :The nurses give considerable social support but also teach aspects of parenting, as well as helping with other things such as diet. The children have been followed up into early adulthood and show remarkable improvement in a variety of ways (e.g. [44]). However an attempted replication in England, which has followed the children until two years old has shown little benefit [42].
