&lt;p>This project uses British Columbia’s province-wide PharmaNet prescription database (2005 to present) to study stimulant treatment for ADHD in children and adolescents. We retrospectively analyze three-year periods of continuous stimulant prescribing within each individual, looking for dosing patterns that may be consistent with pharmacological tolerance and how these patterns relate to age, sex, stimulant type, and cumulative exposure. Findings could inform safer, more effective long-term prescribing strategies for ADHD in young people.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Bipolar Disorder Treatment Guideline Chatbot</title><link>https://example.com/project/bipolar_guideline_chatbot/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/bipolar_guideline_chatbot/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Chatbot for Bipolar Disorder</title><link>https://example.com/project/bipolar_disorder_chatbot/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/bipolar_disorder_chatbot/</guid><description>&lt;p>A chatbot integrated into a mental health app, designed to help those living with bipolar disorder.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Depression Treatment Guideline Chatbot</title><link>https://example.com/project/depression_guideline_chatbot/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/depression_guideline_chatbot/</guid><description/></item><item><title>Predicting Functional Recovery in Depression</title><link>https://example.com/project/depression_functional_recovery/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/depression_functional_recovery/</guid><description>&lt;p>Using clinical and patient-reported data to predict how well someone with depression will recover their day-to-day functioning, to support better treatment planning.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sexual Function and Mood Disorders</title><link>https://example.com/project/sexual_function_mood_disorders/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/sexual_function_mood_disorders/</guid><description>&lt;p>Examining the relationship between mood disorder treatment and sexual function, an often-overlooked aspect of patient wellbeing.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Wearable Sensing in Mood Disorders</title><link>https://example.com/project/wearable_sensing_mood_disorders/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://example.com/project/wearable_sensing_mood_disorders/</guid><description>&lt;p>Exploring the use of wearable technology to better understand and support people living with mood disorders.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
