Complex ADHD Challenging Case: Managing Co-Occurring Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Congenital Heart Disease with a Limited Medication Formulary: A Case from Mexico.

DL is an 8-year-old Mexican boy with a posterior atrial septal defect and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return of the right lower pulmonary vein with resultant right heart dilation with normal right ventricular systolic and diastolic function and no arrhythmias. Surgical repair was deferred, and DL's condition was being medically managed with furosemide 0.5 mg/kg BID and spironolactone 0.

Navigating School-Based Special Education Services: A Self-Paced Virtual Learning Module.

Introduction: Children with disabilities are particularly vulnerable to school failure, as they are more likely than their peers to experience school dropout and academic struggles. Early identification of learning difficulties and access to special education services are critical to the success of children with disabilities. However, few pediatricians feel competent in screening for risks of school failure and/or assisting families with navigating the special education system.

ADHD Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines: A Historical Perspective.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common behavioral condition and the second most common chronic illness in children. The observance of specific behaviors in multiple settings have remained the most successful method for diagnosing the condition, and although there are differences in specific areas of the brain, and a high heritability estimate (∼76%), they are not diagnostically specific. Medications, and particularly stimulant medication, have undergone rigorous studies to document their efficacy dating back to the 1970s.

The partly folded back solution structure arrangement of the 30 SCR domains in human complement receptor type 1 (CR1) permits access to its C3b and C4b ligands.

Human complement receptor type 1 (CR1, CD35) is a type I membrane-bound glycoprotein that belongs to the regulators of complement activity (RCA) family. The extra-cellular component of CR1 is comprised of 30 short complement regulator (SCR) domains, whereas complement receptor type 2 (CR2) has 15 SCR domains and factor H (FH) has 20 SCR domains. The domain arrangement of a soluble form of CR1 (sCR1) was studied by X-ray scattering and analytical ultracentrifugation.
