Introduction: Evidence suggests that the quality of family relationships is associated with health locus of control in family members. The present study aimed to determine the correlation between the health locus of control and adolescent-parent attachment.

Materials And Methods: In this descriptive, analytical cross-sectional study, at each of these 10 schools, 40 students aged 14 and 15, will be randomly selected among Behbahan middle schools. 400 students were selected. Rotters Locus of Control Scale and the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA) were used for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS software and Pearson correlation coefficient, -test and ANOVA statistical techniques.

Results: Findings showed that the mean and standard deviation of attachment level to father (95.97±19.66), mother (99.62±15.60) friends (93.78±17.59) were all high. Between source of health control (intrinsic, affective, and luck), parental attachment and peers have predictive power (beta=0.263, p≤0.001).

Conclusion: According to the findings, to increase attachment to parents, it is better that Intervention should also be carried out on the father and the mother and health Locus control will be increased.

Background: This study aimed to develop and validate a targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel along with a data analysis algorithm capable of detecting single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) within the beta-globin gene cluster. The aim was to reduce the turnaround time in conventional genotyping methods and provide a rapid and comprehensive solution for prenatal diagnosis, carrier screening, and genotyping of β-thalassemia patients.

Methods And Results: We devised a targeted NGS panel spanning an 80.

Comprehensive Epilepsy Program, Department of Neurology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia 22908, USA.

Seizures in people with dementia (PWD) are associated with faster cognitive decline and worse clinical outcomes. However, the relationship between ongoing seizure activity and postmortem neuropathology in PWD remains unexplored. We compared post-mortem findings in PWD with active, remote, and no seizures using multicentre data from 39 Alzheimer's Disease Centres from 2005 to 2021.

Background: Depression is a major public health concern for adolescents, who exhibit low rates of connection to care despite significant needs. Although barriers to help-seeking such as stigma are well documented, interventions to address stigma and to increase help-seeking behavior are insufficient. Dissemination of short videos in social media offer a promising approach, but designing effective stimuli requires better insight into adolescents' perspectives of their own experiences, barriers, and possible interventions.
