New research shows that parents who are involved and communicate effectively with their children are less likely to have kids who bully others. Factors like parental anger and emotional problems in children increase the risk of bullying, while parent-child connection and mental health matter.
A new scale used to assess newborn behavior may help identify children who were exposed to methamphetamine prenatally and are at risk of developing problems later in life. The Infant Development, Environment, and Lifestyle (IDEAL) Study found that these children were hard to arouse but had difficulty calming down once awakened.
A new study shows that fetal exposure to a chemical found in crude oil is associated with an increased risk of congenital heart disease. Among white infants, but not black infants, exposure to ethyl benzene was linked to a four-fold increased risk of CHD.
A systematic review of UK doctors' attitudes towards euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide reveals a significant gap between doctor's views and the public's. The majority of doctors oppose these practices, with religiosity, palliative care, and patient autonomy cited as key factors.
A team of University of British Columbia researchers found that phosphatidic acid, a type of fat present in all cells, serves as a cellular pH sensor. This discovery has important implications for understanding human metabolism and disease.
Adolescents exposed to prenatal smoking are at a higher risk for use of all psychiatric drugs, especially those treating depression, ADHD, and addiction. Smoking exposure during pregnancy may interfere with brain development, leading to increased need for psychotropic medications in childhood and young adulthood.
A study by the American Academy of Pediatrics found that young veterans are at high risk for suicide and violent deaths at home, with 70% of cases being suicides. Mental illness, intimate partner problems, and job issues were common underlying causes.
A study found that 21% of children with autism use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) as part of their treatment plan. CAM use was higher among children with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, particularly those following special diets such as gluten-free or casein-free diets.
A recent study found that 92% of Medicaid renewal applications were written at or above the fifth-grade reading level, contributing to gaps in insurance coverage for children. Simplifying these applications may help improve child Medicaid retention and access to better medical care.
New research suggests that areas with more primary care providers have lower rates of ear and throat surgeries in children. The study also found that the availability of surgeons increases the likelihood of children undergoing these procedures.
Research on patient access schemes found that refunds were not always passed on to primary care trusts, leading to financial losses. The study also identified the need for flexibility in processing claims and standardized templates to streamline administration.
A new study by Washington University School of Medicine identifies distinct genetic signatures among pilocytic astrocytomas that relate to their brain region origin. This finding has significant implications for understanding the causes of pediatric brain tumors, which are the leading cause of cancer-related death in children.
Researchers found that referential gesturing improves identification of targets and reduces verbal cues when participants can see each other. The study published in Psychological Science shows that pointing facilitates the use of verbal descriptions by focusing the audience's gaze on a specific subregion of shared visual space.
The American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) survey shows physician assistants are steadily expanding into various medical settings. The latest findings demonstrate a growing trend of PAs working in primary care fields and specialized medical offices.
The study found that dietary DHA and EPA supplementation significantly influenced heart rate, with improved left ventricular diastolic filling observed in the marine oil groups. The fatty acid composition of plasma phospholipids may affect cardiac mechanics in humans.
Researchers developed a method to create ultrathin films of polyelectrolytes with a layered architecture, which retains two-dimensional conformations after hydrolysis. This allows for the creation of composite structures with tailored surface properties and chemical reactivity.
