At the present the age-specific particularities of many organs and systems used in diagnostics are determined. The function--morphological state of the biliary system in different age groups is poorly studied. The age-specific particularities of biligenesis in norm (control group--90 persons) and in pathology were studied by the following traditional methods: multifractional chromatic duodenal catheterization, dynamic scintigraphy of gallbladder, dynamic ultrasonic cholecystography. There were 167 patients with gastroduodenal diseases (chronic gastritis, gastric, duodenal and intestinal ulcers) and 115 patients with calculous cholecystites and chronic hepatites. The gastroduodenal affections reinforced the appearnce and the course of typical age alterations of biliary system. Patients sufferin from hepatobiliary pathology over 5 years biliation ability has remained in normal values.

Purpose Of Review: Sleep disturbance and low dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids are common in modern society. Previous research shows that omega-3 fatty acids play an integral role in the regulation of sleep processes, but efficacy data in adults have been equivocal to date. This review examines recent studies highlighting the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on sleep quality and circadian processes.

Background: Prisoner health is a major global concern, with prisoners often facing limited access to health care and enduring chronic diseases, infectious diseases, and poor mental health due to unsafe prison environments, unhygienic living conditions, and inadequate medical resources. In Taiwan, prison health is increasingly an issue, particularly concerning urinary diseases such as urinary tract infections. Limited access to health care and unsanitary conditions exacerbate these problems.

Background: Observational and genetic causal studies have shown an association between high concentrations of remnant cholesterol and increased risk of ischemic heart disease. However, findings from randomized intervention trials that reduced plasma triglycerides, a surrogate marker of remnant cholesterol, have been conflicting. The exact mechanisms by which remnant cholesterol contributes to atherosclerosis and, ultimately, ischemic heart disease remain incompletely understood.

Background: Young adult cancer survivors, defined as individuals aged 18-39 who have completed primary curative treatment, face numerous age-specific biopsychosocial late effects that impact health-related quality of life negatively. Rehabilitation can enhance participation in life roles, work, leisure activities and health-related quality of life. However, there is a lack of age-specific cancer rehabilitation for this population, leaving many young adults with diminished self-efficacy in managing their challenges, resulting in unmet needs.

The reported incidence of meniscal tears in the pediatric age group has increased because of increased sports participation and more widespread use of MRI. Meniscal injury is one of the most commonly reported internal derangements in skeletally immature knees and can be associated with early degenerative joint disease leading to disability. The pediatric meniscus has particularities, and knowledge of normal anatomy, anatomical variations, and the patterns of meniscal injury in the pediatric age group is essential to provide a correct diagnosis.
