There are numerous theories approaching the source of mental disorders (including conduct disorder) from different perspectives - biological, psychological, social and multifactorial. The question that arises is which theory is to be used to explain the issue. In the interpretation of phenomena in psychiatry, Kecmanović discusses possibilities of different approaches (biological, psychological, social and biopsychosocial models) and concludes that none of them provide a complete solution as to how to approach different disorders. The question, therefore, is how to proceed? Although according to Kecmanović, the biopsychosocial model, as Engel has formulated it, "provides only ingredients not a prescription", it is our opinion that it indeed does not need to provide prescriptions- it is sufficient if it indicates the necessary ingredients. The prescription itself is to be found in novel scientific disciplines, in particular neuropsychology and epigenetics. Gilbert, on the other hand, points out that the bio- psychosocial approach is holistic, and more than that. "The bio psychosocial approach addresses the complexity of interactions between different domains of functioning and argues that it is the interaction of domains that illuminates important processes" e.g. a hierarchical dimension of the model as one and development as another dimension provide the basis for a comprehensive perspective on psychiatric disorders, in this case of AD/HD as a risk factor for conduct disorder.

Pelvic Venous Disorder (PEVD) and May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) represent relatively understudied vascular issues that can significantly impact patients' quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of surgical treatment for PEVD and MTS, conduct a comparative analysis of outcomes, and determine the practical significance of different therapeutic approaches. The study was conducted from 2019 to 2022 in Moscow, Russia, encompassing two outpatient clinics.

Objective: To conduct a systematic review of neurocognitive dysfunctions in patients with childhood-onset schizophrenia (COS), a neuropsychiatric disorder that occurs before age 13 and is rarer and more severe than adult-onset schizophrenia.
Method: A search was made in the PubMed database. Sixty-seven studies (out of 543) which analyzed Intellectual Quotient (IQ), attentional, memory and executive functions were selected by two independent researchers.

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a major public health concern and cause of mortality and morbidity. Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a debilitating complication of AUD, mitigated by abstinence from alcohol use. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is emerging as a potential treatment for AUD.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent urinary system disorder. Despite evidence of a significant genetic component from previous studies, the specific pathogenic genes and biological mechanisms are still largely unknown. The study utilized the FinnGen R10 dataset, encompassing 177,901 individuals (36,601 cases and 141,300 controls), and the GTEx v8 EQTLs files to conduct single-tissue and cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS).

Pompe disease is a neuromuscular disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (), which leads to lysosomal glycogen accumulation and progressive development of muscle weakness. Two distinct isoforms have been identified. In the infantile form, the weakness is often severe and leads to motor difficulties from the first few months of life.
