The prediction algorithm was developed using logistic regression modelling in 21 813 participants from three census regions. A total of 28 059 individuals who participated in Waves 1 and 2 of the US National Epidemiologie Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions and who had not had major depression at Wave 1 were included. The study was based on data from a nationally representative sample of the US general population. Methods: Longitudinal study design with approximate 3-year follow-up. The objective of this study was to develop and validate a prediction algorithm for first onset of major depression in the general population. However, such prediction algorithms for first onset of major depression do not exist. Ok, that’s what I’ve got for you right now.Objective: Prediction algorithms are useful for making clinical decisions and for population health planning. They are funny, interesting and their commentary is pretty spot on. Two smart ladies talk about all the television and movies that they love, but also find somewhat problematic. I recently discovered I Hate It But I Love It and I’m only a few episodes in but I know I’m going to be binging this aggressively. (And I liked this one a lot more than the other popular true crime podcast Root of Evil.) A random podcaster basically solved the crime because of the data google tracks. I also inhaled To Live and Die in LA, a true crime podcast that made me seriously question how much information our phones are keeping track of. I found the episode about Sixes to be the most enlightening for me and of course, I loved the episode on Nines (cause…. This was one of the most well done series on the enneagram and I would download it immediately. I found it to hold my attention and my emotions well and I was sad to close the book when I was done- always a mark of a good one. I think Rooney captures that age of 18-20 something and all the relational strife that surrounds it really well. It was set in Ireland, a place I love more than anything, and the characters are endearing and maddening all at once. I really loved this story of two friends/loves who dip in and out of each others’ lives. I think it’s a really important book to read, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t need to take breaks between stories. Which is, of course, troubling to consider. All of them took some elements of our society that are troubling and heightened them to a degree that forced me to pause and wonder if this was the course of the natural outcome of said elements. Some of the stories made me uncomfortable. It’s as if a book of short stories dealing with social justice had a baby with a science fiction short story collection. It’s format is not my usual jam (short stories) and it veers into the realm of science fiction (also not my usual jam), but it’s more than just that. Ok, so I can’t say that I necessarily liked this book, but I’m so thankful to have read it. It is non-fiction, but it reads like a novel at times. These kids were incredible and what they managed to do, without the help of adults was pretty incredible. There was so much I didn’t know about this story and so much that gave me hope. Whereas in Columbine Cullen focuses on the events of the shooting, in Parkland he chooses to aim his lens on the kids who would be come the faces of a new movement in the aftermath of the shootings. I really appreciated Columbine, Cullen’s previous tome around school shootings, but I loved Parkland. It’s entertaining, riveting and beautifully told. I’ve already started casting the Hollywood movie version of this book in my head. Once I got into the format I loved it and it made me want to go back to listen to the audiobook version because I heard they nabbed some great actors for it. It’s told in the format of an oral history- imagine if Rolling Stones Magazine interview everyone involved in a band’s history and pieced their comments together chronologically. Everyone’s been talking about it, I’m sure you’ve heard something, but for those of you who haven’t this book is all about a fictional band from the 70’s. In fact I absolutely attribute this to pulling me out of my reading slump. They aren’t calling this the book of the summer for nothin’. Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
