This study examined both continuity and familial, intrapsychic, and environmental predictors of change in adolescent attachment security across a 2-year period from middle to late adolescence. Assessments included the Adult Attachment Interview, observed mother-adolescent interactions, test-based data, and adolescent self-reports obtained from an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse sample of moderately at-risk adolescents interviewed at ages 16 and 18. Substantial stability in security was identified. Beyond this stability, however, relative declines in attachment security were predicted by adolescents' enmeshed, overpersonalizing behavior with their mothers; depressive symptoms; and poverty status. Results suggest that although security may trend upward for nonstressed adolescents, stressors that overwhelm the capacity for affect regulation and that are not easily assuaged by parents predict relative declines in security over time.

The foremost index of caregiving quality is child attachment, as supported by attachment theory. Research supports the relevance of early parenting interventions in improving child outcomes in attachment quality to promote public health because of their long-term effects on mental health and functioning. This study aimed at evaluating the impact on both parenting and child outcomes of the Parent-Child Psychological Support Programme® (PCPS), a community-based program individually tailored to parents and their infants during periodic center-based visits to promote attachment security.

Submerged plants (SMPs) play a critical role in improving water quality and reducing NO greenhouse gas emissions. However, freshwater salinization represents a major environmental challenge in aquatic systems. To investigate the impact of salinization on NO emissions, this study conducted indoor mesocosm experiments simulating SMP and nonsubmerged plant (Non_SMP) areas in freshwater lakes.

Purpose: The medial collateral ligament (MCL), and posterior oblique ligament (POL) are the primary valgus stabilisers of the knee, and clinical examinations in grading valgus instability can be inherently subjective. Stress radiography of medial-sided knee injuries provides objective diagnosis and was analysed in this study. We hypothesised that (1) medial joint space opening would increase cutting the superficial MCL (sMCL), POL and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL); (2) isolated deep MCL (dMCL) injury would not increase medial joint space opening; (3) medial joint space opening would increase at higher flexion angles.

Background: The septum is often underdeveloped in East Asian populations, and traditional endogenous extension stents may not adequately fulfill the requirements for rhinoplasty. Herein, we present an innovative exogenous extension framework featuring a mortise and tenon structure specifically designed for East Asians.
Methods: This framework comprises a mushroom-shaped rib cartilage component and a lancet-shaped expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) element, which are interconnected through a mortise and tenon design.

Introduction: Respiratory disorders pose a serious health risk for quarry workers exposed to dust, as they are a leading source of morbidity and mortality globally, often resulting in irreversible lung conditions. This study assessed the prevalence and determinants of restrictive disorder among quarry workers in Umuoghara quarry site, Ebonyi State.
Methods: This study was done on quarry workers at the Umuoghara quarry site, Ebonyi State.
