Somatometry and somatotyping of 435 practically healthy children in the second period of childhood (age: 8-12 years) attending the secondary schools in Rostov-on-Don was performed. In the group of children studied the representatives of macrosomal type were found to prevail. It was established that in children of both sex groups the acceleration of growth of muscular somatic component occurred during the period of accelerated rate of increment of body length and mass. Maximum activation of the growth of body fat component was found to occur at the age of 9 to 10 years in girls and at 10 to 11 years in boys. The results of this research supplement the available morphological data on the regularities of growth and development of children of the age group studied, and may be used in forming somatodiagnostic base in the region under investigation.

Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement leads to a reduction in portal pressure and an improvement in survival in patients with recurrent and refractory ascites and variceal haemorrhage. Prediction of post-TIPS survival is primarily determined by factors identified before the TIPS procedure, as data collected during or after TIPS implantation are limited. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of early hemodynamic changes after TIPS placement on survival, in order to refine post TIPS management.

Objective: This study examined whether being scheduled in a screening clinic versus scheduled directly with a long-term provider to conduct a mental health intake (MHI) is associated with engagement in child psychiatry services in New England, USA.
Method: We used electronic medical record data from one safety-net hospital serving a predominantly low-income and minoritised population. The study sample included 815 youths aged 0 to 25 years, referred or scheduled for a MHI between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2016.
