NCT ID NCT07622589
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 26, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will use wearable devices like heart rate monitors and sleep trackers to see how financial stress and news affect your body. Researchers will follow 2,500 adults remotely, collecting data on heart rate, sleep, and stress levels. The goal is to create AI tools that can predict when stress might lead to health problems.
