In general pediatric clinic 262 children aged 1-15 years with functional hyperthermia, functional disorders of cardiac rhythm (extrasystole, paroxysmal and recurrent tachycardia), arterial hyper- and hypotension, autonomic dysfunctions were examined. 21 children with organic cardiac diseases were examined too. Mental disorders were revealed in all the cases: mono- and bipolar affective disorders (58.1%) as well as affective-dilutional (10.4%) states, primarily in the form of "masked" hypomanias, neurotic and neurotic-like (16.2%), psychopathic and psychopathic-like (7.0%), psychoorganic (3.7%) and epileptiform (4.6%) syndromes. The spectrum of mental disorders was extremely wide--from practical normal (in limits of reactions of personal accentuations or age crisis) to endogenic diseases. Combined treatment including drug therapy, psychotherapy and family correction was quite effective.

Background: Shared decision-making between clinicians and service users is crucial in mental health care. One significant barrier to achieving this goal is the lack of user-centered services. Integrating digital tools into mental health services holds promise for addressing some of these challenges.

Common early childhood concerns and behaviors include sleep issues, thumb-sucking, pacifier use, picky eating, school readiness, and oral health. Family physicians must recognize when these indicate an underlying disorder and offer constructive and evidence-based strategies to support healthy child development and family well-being. Behavioral interventions and education to address sleep issues can alleviate stress and decrease fatigue for the whole family.

Background And Objectives: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is known to be associated with increased plasma phosphorylated tau217 (p-tau217) concentrations, potentially confounding the utility of plasma p-tau217 measurements as a marker of amyloid pathology in individuals with suspected Alzheimer disease (AD). In this study, we quantitatively investigate the relationship of plasma p-tau217 concentrations vs estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in individuals with CKD with and without amyloid pathology.
Methods: This was a retrospective examination of data from 2 observational cohorts from either the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging or the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center cohorts.

Background And Objectives: Antibodies to proteolipid protein-1 (PLP1-IgG), a major central myelin protein also expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) as the isoform DM20, have been previously identified mostly in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), with unclear clinical implications. However, most studies relied on nonconformational immunoassays and included few patients with non-MS CNS autoimmune demyelinating disorders (ADDs). We aimed to investigate conformational PLP1-IgG in the whole ADD spectrum.

Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects 3.9% of the general population. While massed cognitive processing therapy (CPT) has demonstrated efficacy in treating chronic PTSD, a substantial proportion of patients still continue to meet PTSD criteria after treatment, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic approaches.
