Abstract Endocannabinoids contribute to sex-related processes, including puberty. In 1,159 adolescents, females showed significantly lower concentrations than males across five endocannabinoids (AEA, 2-AG, PEA, OEA, and 2-OG). Sex-by-puberty interactions were significant for AEA, PEA, and OEA. Exploratory analyses revealed sex-specific associations between endocannabinoids and self-reported pain, stress, internalizing, and attentional problems.
Physical activity (PA) has shown to have beneficial effects on children’s health and development. However, a reduced focus on PA programming in schools and home environments may contribute to the increasing prevalence of mental health problems among youth, particularly following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we report preliminary findings from an ongoing randomized controlled trial of acute exercise (light-intensity or moderate-intensity) and meditation on mood and affect in youth.
