The Role of the Chronotype in Developing an Excessive Body Weight and Its Complications-A Narrative Review.

The chronotype, the personal predisposition towards morning or evening activities, significantly influences health conditions, sleep, and eating regulations. Individuals with evening chronotypes are often at a higher risk for weight gain due to misalignment between their natural tendencies of functioning and social schedules, resulting in insufficient sleep, disruptions in eating habits, and decreased physical activity levels. Often, impaired glucose tolerance and changes in melatonin, adiponectin, and leptin secretion, along with alterations in the clock gene functions in subjects with evening preferences, may be predisposed to obesity.

A comprehensive overview of neuropsychiatric symptoms in adolescents with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.

Background: The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is associated with a variety of neuropsychiatric outcomes that vary across deletion carriers. We adopted a dimensional approach to provide a comprehensive overview of neuropsychiatric symptom expression in adolescents with 22q11DS and further our understanding of the observed phenotypical heterogeneity.

To cut or not to cut - that is the question: a comparative analysis of long-term follow-up after complete and incomplete electroconization of the cervix due to high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion.

Introduction: Electroconization of the uterine cervix (LEEP/LLETZ) is an appropriate and sufficient procedure for high-grade squamous epithelial lesion - HSIL. Negative margins are considered fundamental for confirming the absence of residual disease. Further management after incomplete excision among women who have not completed their procreative plans is difficult because subsequent cervical procedures may cause issues with carrying a pregnancy to term.
