[THE OCTOBER MASSACRE AND IRON SWORDS WAR AS A TRIGGER FOR THE EMERGENCE OF EATING DISORDERS - A CASE SERIES].

Eating disorders (EDs) are severe psychiatric disorders which entail substantial morbidity and mortality. Early detection and treatment are fundamental in determining prognosis. Exposure to traumatic events and acute stress are prominent risk factors for the emergence of EDs, while treatment delay may cause medical and psychiatric complications and lead to chronic illness.

Conditional loss of Brca1 in oocytes causes reduced litter size, ovarian reserve depletion and impaired oocyte in vitro maturation with advanced reproductive age in mice.

Background: An estimated 1 in 350 women carry germline BRCA1/2 mutations, which confer an increased risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer, and may also contribute to subfertility. All mature, sex steroid-producing ovarian follicles are drawn from the pool of non-renewable primordial follicles, termed the 'ovarian reserve'. The clinical implications of early ovarian reserve exhaustion extend beyond infertility, to include the long-term adverse health consequences of loss of endocrine function and premature menopause.

Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in children and young people with psychiatric disorders: a systematic review.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has demonstrated benefits in adults with psychiatric disorders, but its clinical utility in children and young people (CYP) is unclear. This PRISMA systematic review used published and ongoing studies to examine the effects of rTMS on disorder-specific symptoms, mood and neurocognition in CYP with psychiatric disorders. We searched Medline via PubMed, Embase, PsychINFO via OVID, and Clinicaltrials.

Pharmacological Studies in Eating Disorders: A Historical Review.

Eating disorders (EDs) are serious mental health conditions characterised by impaired eating behaviours and nutrition as well as disturbed body image, entailing considerable mortality and morbidity. Psychopharmacological medication is an important component in the treatment of EDs. In this review, we performed a historic analysis of pharmacotherapeutic research in EDs based on the scientific studies included in the recently published World Federation of Societies for Biological Psychiatry (WFSBP) guidelines for ED treatment.
