The consumption of energy-dense sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) and its low satiating effects may influence the development of child eating behaviours. We aimed to investigate the association of SSB consumption at 4 years on appetitive behaviours at age 7 years. Children from the Generation XXI birth cohort were included (n 3880). SSB consumption was evaluated through a FFQ and appetitive behaviours were evaluated through the Children's Eating Behaviour Questionnaire, which includes eight subscales. Two composite factors, derived by principal component analysis (Appetite Restraint - related to Food Fussiness, Enjoyment of Food, Slowness in Eating and Satiety Responsiveness - and Appetite Disinhibition - related to Food Responsiveness, Emotional Under- and Overeating and Desire to Drink), were also investigated. The dose-response relationship between SSB consumption and appetitive behaviours was examined using multivariable linear regression (continuous eating behaviour scores) and multinomial logistic regression (tertile categories of eating behaviour scores). Child SSB consumption at 4 years was associated with higher Appetite Disinhibition and Desire to Drink and lower Food Fussiness and Slowness in Eating at 7 years. Consuming SSB ≥1 times/d (compared with a lower intake) was associated with 29 % increase in the odds of Desire to Drink (3rd v. 1st tertile). Pre-schoolers' SSB consumption was associated with higher food approach and less food avoidant behaviours later in childhood. Family characteristics, particularly maternal SSB consumption, explained part of these associations. It is essential to promote the intake of water, instead of sugary drinks, and make parents and caregivers aware of the importance of this exposure, since they have a pivotal role in shaping children's eating behaviours.Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has revolutionized the care of patients with acute ischemic stroke. The efficacy of EVT is dependent on the optimal setup of a stroke system. Extrapolating the results of clinical trials to any individual stroke center should be done with caution. This is more important for centers with suboptimal stroke systems of care. The Canadian registry has helped highlight the suboptimal outcome post EVT in Manitoba. This could potentially be optimized with the addition of an acute stroke unit in the near future. Our study will serve as a baseline for future improvement in acute stroke care.
Childhood exposure to interpersonal violence (IPV) may be linked to distinct manifestations of mental illness, yet the nature of this change remains poorly understood. Network analysis can provide unique insights by contrasting the interrelatedness of symptoms underlying psychopathology across exposed and non-exposed youth, with potential clinical implications for a treatment-resistant population. We anticipated marked differences in symptom associations among IPV-exposed youth, particularly in terms of 'hub' symptoms holding outsized influence over the network, as well as formation and influence of communities of highly interconnected symptoms.
Participants from a population-representative sample of youth (n = 4433; ages 11-18 years) completed a comprehensive structured clinical interview assessing mental health symptoms, diagnostic status, and history of violence exposure. Network analytic methods were used to model the pattern of associations between symptoms, quantify differences across diagnosed youteutically targeted to improve outcomes in violence-exposed youth.Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy-specific disease, has become one of the leading causes of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Pathogenesis of PE has still not been fully addressed and there is a great need to develop early diagnosis markers and effective therapy. This study aimed to determine if lncRNA SNHG14 has a protective effect on placental trophoblast and prevents PE. SNHG14 levels in the peripheral blood from patients with PE or from women with healthy pregnancies were detected using RT-qPCR. The relationship between SNHG14 and miR-330-5p was determined using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. In addition, cell proliferation and cell cycle were evaluated by performing CCK8 assays and flow-cytometric analysis, respectively. Wound-healing and transwell assays were performed to assess cell migration and invasion ability. lncRNA SNHG14 was downregulated in PE patients; it was involved in trophoblast proliferation and regulated cell proliferation during G1/S transition. In addition, lncRNA SNHG14 promoted migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in HTR-8/SVneo cells. Luciferase reporter assay indicated that lncRNA SNHG14 served as a molecular sponge for miR-330-5p and negatively regulated miR-330-5p expression in PE. Furthermore, the effects of silenced SNHG14 on trophoblast proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT were reversed by addition of miR-330-5p inhibitor, suggesting that in PE lncRNA SNHG14 functions by competitively binding to miR-330-5p. Taken together, the current study demonstrated that in PE lncRNA SNHG14 is a vital regulator by binding to miR-330-5p. SNHG14 might serve as a therapeutic application in PE progression.Prospective longitudinal studies of idiopathic autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have provided insights into early symptoms and predictors of ASD during infancy, well before ASD can be diagnosed at age 2-3 years. However, research on the emergence of ASD in disorders with a known genetic etiology, contextualized in a developmental framework, is currently lacking. Using a biobehavioral multimethod approach, we (a) determined the rate of ASD in N = 51 preschoolers with fragile X syndrome (FXS) using a clinical best estimate (CBE) procedure with differential diagnoses of comorbid psychiatric disorders and (b) investigated trajectories of ASD symptoms and physiological arousal across infancy as predictors of ASD in preschoolers with FXS. ASD was not diagnosed if intellectual ability or psychiatric disorders better accounted for the symptoms. Bromelain cell line Our results determined that 60.7% of preschoolers with FXS met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (fifth edition) (DSM-5) criteria for ASD using the CBE procedure.
