The aim of this study was to compare the levels of thyroid hormones in children with ADHD and ADHD-NOS and to assess the relationship between ADHD symptom severity, anxiety symptom severity and thyroid hormone levels. The study was planned as a cross-sectional, retrospective study. The records of patients who applied to the study center in between January 2012 and January 2013 were screened and 205 ADHD and ADHD-NOS cases' records were evaluated.

Article Synopsis
- * The study found that sleep problems were the most common psychiatric symptom, with acute stress disorder (ASD) affecting all age groups equally, while post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was more prevalent among adolescents; those with significant losses exhibited higher rates of both disorders.
- * The researchers concluded that providing intensive psychological support shortly after such traumatic events is essential to mitigate long-term mental health issues in vulnerable populations.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined how taking breaks from the ADHD medication methylphenidate (MPH) during summer vacations affects ADHD symptoms and emotion regulation (ER) in children.
- Fifty-six children participated, with evaluations happening before treatment, after treatment, and after the drug holidays. Out of those, 39 had complete data for analysis.
- Results showed that while MPH treatment significantly reduced irritability and improved emotion recognition skills, these positive effects diminished after drug holidays, indicating the medication's benefits may be temporary.

Respiratory complexes, such as cytochrome oxidases, are cofactor-containing multi-subunit protein complexes that are critically important for energy metabolism in all domains of life. Their intricate assembly strictly depends on accessory proteins, which coordinate subunit associations and cofactor deliveries. The small membrane protein CcoS was previously identified as an essential assembly factor to produce an active cbb-type cytochrome oxidase (cbb-Cox) in Rhodobacter capsulatus, but its function remained unknown.
