The RACP is advancing a three-tier strategy to build greater specialist capacity and sustain leadership in adolescent and young adult medicine
Birth order effects have been linked to variability in intelligence, educational attainment and sexual orientation. First- and later-born children have been linked to an increased likelihood of an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis, with a smaller body of evidence implicating decreases in cognitive functioning with increased birth order.
Adolescents attending a hospital-based CPU report high rates of health-risk behaviours
More needs to be done to address alcohol-related harm, and on-going monitoring is required to assess the effectiveness of strategies.
Birth order effects have been linked to variability in intelligence, educational attainment and sexual orientation. First- and later-born children have been linked to an increased likelihood of an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis, with a smaller body of evidence implicating decreases in cognitive functioning with increased birth order. The present study investigated the potential association between birth order and ASD diagnostic phenotypes in a large and representative population sample.
The bone marrow microenvironment (BMM) plays a key role in leukemia progression, but its molecular complexity in pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), the most common cancer in children, remains poorly understood. To gain further insight, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize the kinetics of the murine BMM during B-ALL progression.
This study investigated the influence of personality characteristics and gender on adolescents' perception of risk and their risk-taking behaviour.
Documenting carer, service provider and healthcare practitioner perspectives on skin infections provides more understanding of the context of treatment decisions
