As a result, sleep disruption and mental distress became major health concerns. Gamma-aminobutyric acid type-A receptor (GABAAR) is one of the key players in modulating sleep. Dihydromyricetin (DHM), an herbal compound, plays a role in GABAAR modulation and mitigating anxiety. The investigators' partner in China obtained 288 participants who completed the online survey to gain insight into how stress/anxiety and time spent on cellphones affected sleep and mood. The participants were then enrolled in a randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study to assess the effects of DHM on sleep and improvement on stress/anxiety and cellphone using time."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '60 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Healthy subjects were recruited in Chengdu and Beijing (city) in China,\n* Able and willing to sign informed consent,\n* Between 18 -60 years old at time of consent,\n* No alcohol, drug, and smoking,\n* Not using sleep medication(s) or other psychiatric medications.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Pregnant or Breastfeeding women,\n* Currently taking any medications for sleep,\n* Reported naps \\> 3 times per week\n* History of sleep apnea,\n* Current alcohol, drug, and smoking'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05280561', 'acronym': 'Sleep-Aid', 'briefTitle': 'Stress-induced Sleep Deficits and a Complementary Therapy', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Southern California'}, 'officialTitle': 'Stress-, Anxiety-, and Cellphone Use-induced Sleep Deficits and Psychological Conditions During the Pandemic and a Potential Complementary Therapy', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'UP-21-00653'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'DHM group', 'description': 'This arm is to evaluate DHM effects on the intervention of stress-induced insomnia during the pandemic.
