Refugee children and families are at high risk of developing mental health conditions. The objective of this systematic review was to examine the current empirical literature on refugee mental health in Europe with a focus on children and families. A systematic search was conducted between January 2022 to June 2022 in PsychInfo, CINAHIL and PubMed. The search produced 2385 results and 62 articles met the selection criteria. Results showed that children had high rates of trauma exposure and were at higher risk of psychopathology than their host peers. Post-migration stressors impact mental health outcomes in adolescents and adults. However, most studies were self-report and cross-sectional and there were very few studies on refugee parenting or dyadic relationships.

Mitochondrial membrane protein-associated neurodegeneration (MPAN) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by spastic paraplegia, parkinsonism and psychiatric and/or behavioral symptoms caused by variants in gene encoding chromosome-19 open reading frame-12 (C19orf12). We present here seven patients from six unrelated families with detailed clinical, radiological, and genetic investigations. Childhood-onset patients predominantly had a spastic ataxic phenotype with optic atrophy, while adult-onset patients were presented with cognitive, behavioral, and parkinsonian symptoms.
