Article Synopsis
  • The relationship between mental health and cultural practices, such as ADHD, is complicated in diverse communities, particularly in South Asian populations where it is often underdiagnosed due to stigma and systemic barriers.
  • There's limited research on how parenting styles in South Asian families influence the understanding and management of ADHD symptoms, despite increasing global awareness.
  • This narrative review aims to identify existing studies, explore cultural factors affecting ADHD expression, and highlight future research areas to better support South Asian families dealing with ADHD.

The grey type donkeys of region of Uttar Pradesh in India were genetically characterized using ten heterologous microsatellite loci. At these loci the PCR product size ranged from 75-95 bp at locus HTG6 to 251-277 bp at locus COR18. The observed number of alleles varied from 4 (HTG15) to 10 (HTG7 and AHT4) with a mean of 7.

The present study was undertaken to characterize the genetic variation present in lymphoxin A gene (LTA gene) encoding for the lymphotoxin A protein also known as tumor necrosis factor beta, a cytokine produced by lymphocytes, known to be cytotoxic for a wide range of tumor cells both in vitro and in vivo, and, which is essential for normal immunological development; in 40 animals of 5 diverse Bos indicus Indian zebu cattle breeds. These breeds survive under the harsh and tough tropical climatic conditions of various parts of the Indian subcontinent. The LTA gene in the present study was observed to contain 33 SNPs and 3 small insertion/deletion polymorphisms.
