Background: Child screen viewing (SV) is positively associated with poor health indicators. Interventions addressing rule-based parenting practices may offer an effective means of limiting SV. This study examined associations between rule-based parenting practices (limit and collaborative rule setting) and SV in 6-8-year old children.
Methods: An online survey of 735 mothers in 2011 assessed: time that children spent engaged in SV activities; and the use of limit and collaborative rule setting. Logistic regression was used to examine the extent to which limit and collaborative rule setting were associated with SV behaviours.
Results: 'Always' setting limits was associated with more TV viewing, computer, smartphone and game-console use and a positive association was found between 'always' setting limits for game-console use and multi-SV (in girls). Associations were stronger in mothers of girls compared to mothers of boys. 'Sometimes' setting limits was associated with more TV viewing. There was no association between 'sometimes' setting limits and computer, game-console or smartphone use. There was a negative association between collaborative rule setting and game-console use in boys.
Conclusions: Limit setting is associated with greater SV. Collaborative rule setting may be effective for managing boys' game-console use. More research is needed to understand rule-based parenting practices.

The assembly of peptides is generally mediated by liquid-liquid phase separation, which enables control over assembly kinetics, final structure, and functions of peptide-based supramolecular materials. Modulating phase separation can alter the assembly kinetics of peptides by changing solvents or introducing external fields. Herein, we demonstrate that the assembly of peptides can be effectively catalyzed by complex coacervates.

An 88-year-old male with a history of cervical spondylosis (status post laminectomy of C2-C3 and laminoplasty of C4-C5), chronic congestive heart failure (CHF), pulmonary embolism, and lumbar spinal stenosis presented to an outpatient sports medicine clinic with neck pain following a fall five days prior due to loss of balance. He reported pain on the left side worsened by movement and accompanied by neck "clicking." A physical exam showed severe limitation in cervical spine extension limited by pain and loss of lordotic curve and a neurologic exam demonstrated weakness in the left leg secondary to a previous back surgery.

Despite recommendations in the US National Research Action Plan on Long COVID, gender identity is rarely reported in research and surveillance used to guide public health programming and clinical care. We analyzed data from a cross-sectional study of COVID-19 in a nationwide sample of transgender and nonbinary (TNB) people (N = 2,134). Participants were surveyed between June 14, 2021 and May 1, 2022.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a common autoimmune pathology requiring lifelong insulin therapy. We report the case of a 12-year-old girl with T1DM admitted to Department C of the National Institute of Nutrition of Tunis for diabetic ketosis. She had suffered from T1DM for five years, with poor glycemic control (hemoglobin A1C = 10%) and poor therapeutic adherence.

In this paper, a recurrent neural network is proposed for distributed nonconvex optimization subject to globally coupled (in)equality constraints and local bound constraints. Two distributed optimization models, including a resource allocation problem and a consensus-constrained optimization problem, are established, where the objective functions are not necessarily convex, or the constraints do not guarantee a convex feasible set. To handle the nonconvexity, an augmented Lagrangian function is designed, based on which a recurrent neural network is developed for solving the optimization models in a distributed manner, and the convergence to a local optimal solution is proven.
