Covid19 Lockdown effect on brain .

Effect of lockdown on mental health .
Both social isolation and loneliness are major risk factors for poor physical and mental health status through enhanced chronic inflammation;

As chronic inflammation biomarkers, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the concentration of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured.

Isolated-Lonely condition (i.e., being both socially isolated and feeling lonely) was associated with higher NLR among men (B = 0.141, 95%CI = −0.01 to 0.29). Interestingly, Nonisolated-Lonely condition (i.e., not socially isolated but feeling lonely) was associated with lower CRP among women .

Solution:
1.Personal resilience, coping behaviours, and social support were identified as protective factors against loneliness.
2. Engage in social engagement activities via social media app. Engage in helping other or solving problems of other to lower get  sense of satisfaction .
3.learn a new skill, make a new habit , extend your creativity by trying different things.

Brain connectivity improves human aesthetic responses to music

Brain connectivity improves human aesthetic responses to music Abstract: 1. white matter connectivity between sensory processing areas in the superior temporal gyrus and emotional and social processing areas in the insula and medial prefrontal cortex explains individual differences in reward sensitivity to music. 2.  findings provide the first evidence for a neural basis of individual differences in sensory access to the reward system, and suggest that social–emotional communication through the auditory channel may offer an evolutionary basis for music making as an aesthetically rewarding function in humans. 3.carried out by -- Using a combination of survey data, behavioral and psychophysiological measures and diffusion tensor imaging, Conclusion: Results from diffusion tensor imaging show that white matter connectivity between auditory perceptual regions (pSTG) and regions of the brain important for emo- tional and social processing (aIns, mPFC) reflect individual diffe...

Desensitization

1.Drug desensitization  refers to two related concepts. First, desensitization may be equivalent to  drug tolerance  and refers to subjects' reactions (positive or negative) to a drug reducing following its repeated use.  2.desensitization, which refers to a biochemical effect where individual  receptors  become less responsive after repeated application of an  agonist . This may be mediated by  phosphorylation , for instance by  beta adrenoceptor kinase  at the  beta adrenoceptor . 3.Desensitization is a result of either of continued presence of agonist specific for that receptor (homologous) or of a result of either a class of agonists working toward a “common goal” (heterologous desensitization). 4.There are two known mechanisms for desensitization (see Figure 10.19). a)decrease in response brought about by the covalent modifications produced by  receptor   phosphorylation  and is quite rapid (seconds to minut...
