Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate whether there may be differences in the measurements of the orbital region between healthy children and children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Methods: In this study, the orbital region measurements of 310 children, including 130 ADHD children and 180 healthy children aged 7 to 11 years, were analyzed. For this analysis, anterior view photographs of these individuals were used. For both sides, endocanthion (en), exocanthion (ex), and pupil (p) were determined in these photographs. A total of 5 distances (ex-ex, en-en, ex-en for the right side, ex-en for the left side and p-p) were analyzed using these points.

Results: In both sexes, no statistically significant difference was observed between the 2 groups in all 6 parameters analyzed.

Conclusion: Although it was concluded that there was no difference in orbital measurements between healthy children and children with ADHD in this study, it was thought that a definite conclusion could not be reached because the cases examined belonged to a single center. Therefore, it is thought that multicenter studies in which more individuals are evaluated are needed.

Objectives: This study compared cognitive flexibility (CF) and emotion recognition (ER) in adolescents with eating disorders (ED) to a healthy group.

Methods: Forty healthy individuals aged 12-18 years with no psychiatric diagnosis and 46 patients diagnosed with anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), or binge eating disorder (BED) according to DSM-5 criteria participated. CF was assessed using the Cognitive Flexibility Scale (CFS), Stroop Test, and Berg Card Sorting Test (BCST), while ER was evaluated using the test of perception of affect via nonverbal cues.

Background: According to WHO, "noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) kill 41 million people" annually, as the primary cause of death globally. WHO's Global Action Plan for the prevention and control of NCDs 2013-2020 (extended) tackles this issue and its implications regarding inequalities between countries and populations. Based on combined behavioural, environmental and policy approaches, health promotion aims to reduce health inequities and address health determinants through 3 strategies: education, prevention and protection.

Background & Aim: Metabolic and cardiovascular health outcomes are strongly influenced by diet. Dietary habits established in early childhood may persist into adulthood. This study aimed to examine the association between dietary patterns at both 2 and 8 years of age, explaining the maximum variability of high- and low-quality fats, sugars, and fibre, and cardiometabolic markers at age 8 years.

A comprehensive understanding of the evolution of the immune landscape in humans across the entire lifespan at single-cell transcriptional and protein levels, during development, maturation and senescence is currently lacking. We recruited a total of 220 healthy volunteers from the Shanghai Pudong Cohort (NCT05206643), spanning 13 age groups from 0 to over 90 years, and profiled their peripheral immune cells through single-cell RNA-sequencing coupled with single T cell and B cell receptor sequencing, high-throughput mass cytometry, bulk RNA-sequencing and flow cytometry validation experiments. We revealed that T cells were the most strongly affected by age and experienced the most intensive rewiring in cell-cell interactions during specific age.
