Childhood trauma exposure is very common among alcohol-dependent inpatients
2012-03-16 04:23:00 Accumulating evidence indicates that childhood trauma experience (CTE) may be an environmental susceptibility factor for a variety of psychiatric disorders, including alcohol dependence (AD). CTE can include sexual, physical, and emotional abuse as well as physical or emotional neglect. New research on single and multiple CTE among AD individuals undergoing inpatient detoxification and treatment has found significant rates of reported CTE among these individuals. Results will be published in the June 2012 issue of Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research and are currently available at Early View. ?Previous studies have found that alcoholic patients self-report higher rates of physical and sexual abuse in childhood compared to the general population,? said Markus Heilig, clinical director at the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). ?A recent national survey estimated rates of 8.4 percent for physical a...

Childhood Memories
2011-08-14 07:37:00 Memories... Little treasures and traps that we collect over a lifetime. Longtime readers know that I've worked hard to help Cait focus on the treasures, as I try to do for myself. That's because, as a storyteller, I'm keenly aware of the power of the stories we tell ourselves about where we've been, who we are, and where we're going. Hence my desire to carry the treasures forward. One of my favorite early memories is of going to my Italian grandmother's house in the city. I'd scramble out of the car, rush to give my grandmother a hug and then run out into her walled backyard. It was filled with glorious wonders--a fish pond, a little orchard of plum trees heavy with fruit, a huge cherry tree that rained down so many cherries they carpeted the grass, and the heavenly-scented honeysuckle vines that covered the back wall. I thought of it as my own Secret Garden. Whether I was playing by myself or with siblings or cousins, I loved that I never had to stop to go inside to eat--...
A Positive Association found between Autism Prevalence and Childhood Vaccin
2011-05-30 05:35:00 A Positive Association found between Autism Prevalence and Childhood Vaccination uptake across the U.S. PopulationJournal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A: Current IssuesVolume 74, Issue 14, 2011, Pages 903 - 916Author: Gayle DeLongaDOI: 10.1080/15287394.2011.573736Pee-r Review IntegrityOnline Sample Online Sample subscribe SubscribeAbstractThe reason for the rapid rise of autism in the United States that began in the 1990s is a mystery. Although individuals probably have a genetic predisposition to develop autism, researchers suspect that one or more environmental triggers are also needed. One of those triggers might be the battery of vaccinations that young children receive. Using regression analysis and controlling for family income and ethnicity, the relationship between the proportion of children who received the recommended vaccines by age 2 years and the prevalence of autism (AUT) or speech or language impairment (SLI) in each U.S. state from 2001 and 2007 ...

Filling Up on Empty Calories Causes Childhood Obesity
2010-10-18 12:00:00 A recent study led by the U.S. National Cancer Institute concluded that almost 40% of childhood calorie consumption came from solid fat and foods with added sugars. The main culprits were soda, fruit drinks, dairy desserts, grain desserts, pizza and whole milk. Our first lady, Michelle Obama, has taken a leadership role in the fight against childhood obesity. She has introduced innovative school nutrition reform and taken on socially irresponsible food service companies, but it is up to every parent to educate and encourage their children to make healthier choices.

Rapist had a "bad childhood"
2009-12-18 23:31:00 He raped and killed 11 women, but the jury spared him the death penalty. Why? Because:Defense lawyers argued against the death penalty and testimony centered on how Crawford was allegedly abused by family as a child....The two holdout jurors declined to speak to reporters afterward, and their fellow jury members refused to identify them. But juror James Aldworth, 50, said the woman held out due to religious convictions, and the man based his decision on his belief that Crawford must have suffered horrible abuse in order to commit such crimes.Wait. Religious convictions? Against the death penalty? Maybe so, but shouldn't this juror have been excluded on that basis. How can you put someone on a jury in a capital punishment...
Can childhood abuse lead to premature aging?
2009-11-24 03:09:00 According to novel research from Butler Hospital and Brown University, children who suffer physical or emotional abuse could possibly be faced with increased cellular aging as adults. For the purpose of better understanding this criterion, researchers were believed to have looked at twenty-two women and nine men between ages 18 and 64. Some of the subjects were noted to have no history of childhood maltreatment, but others said they had suffered either moderate or severe mistreatment as children. Further, the researchers measured DNA extracted from blood samples of these adults. They seem to have found accelerated shortening of telomeres in those who stated to have suffered from maltreatment as children than to study participants who did not. Shorter telomere lengths are known to have been linked to a variety of aging-related medical conditions including heart disease and cancer. Telomeres are known to be the ?caps? on the end of chromosomes that encourage cellular stability. Mo...
Mother?s Depression a Risk Factor in Childhood Asthma Symptoms
2009-11-20 19:58:00 Maternal depression can worsen asthma symptoms in their children, according to research from Johns Hopkins Children?s Center published online in the Journal of Pediatric Psychology. Analyzing data from interviews with 262 mothers of African-American children with asthma ? a population disproportionately affected by this inflammatory airway disorder ? the Hopkins investigators found that children whose mothers had more depressive symptoms had more frequent asthma symptoms during the six-months of the study. Conversely, children whose mothers reported fewer depressive symptoms had less frequent asthma symptoms. Researchers tracked ups and downs in maternal depression as related to the frequency of symptoms among children.
Man says his childhood attorney knew his mother abused him
2009-11-06 22:24:00 A 23 year old man is suing the attorney who represented him as a minor during his parents' divorce proceedings because, he says, she knew about the abuse his mother inflicted on him and did nothing about it. Carlos J. Carrillo says that Stacey Platt of the Loyola Child Law Center "was very aware of the severity and frequency of abuse" that Carrillo's mother inflicted on him and his siblings but there is no record of her attempting to protect the children. Carrillo points to a police report showing that his mother pulled a knife on him and threatened to stab him as well as three court orders requiring his mother to get anger management counseling, which she never did and which...
Childhood is special, do not loose it!
2009-09-16 10:20:00 Dear friend, In last days I am reading more and more. So it goes with my mind, it is more and more active and frankly, feels good ;-) Today I have read interesting article, which reminds me a lot reasons why I have created Remembering Childhood project. This series of images, if you remember, should help adults to bring back, once forgotten memories and feelings from time when we were very young. This particular article is rather difficult to read and at the same time very easy to understand. Looks like almost two people wrote it,plus all those references and citations from other people makes it at the end rather complex. In any case, if you patient enough, it will bring you joy and certainly trigger some thoughts. Here is few teasers from it: I have often felt like saying to adults: quit worrying about the afterlife. This already is the afterlife. You ghouls. You ghostwalking former children. Then I want to ask them: Why do you worry about whether your soul will exist 100 year...

Wearing a long-sleeved white jacket over a summer dress, Athina stayed close to her father, Thierry Roussel, all afternoon, speaking French in a soft, hesitant voice, never making eye contact with the distant relatives he introduced her to, always standing sli...

In What Ways Are Childhood Schizophrenia and Autism Different, I think the
2008-06-09 05:23:00 newsRare, spontaneous mutations rife in schizophrenia casesMichele Solis 5 Jun 2008 2:15 PM Unlucky breaks: De novo mutations can account for schizophrenia in families with no prior history of the disease.Rare, spontaneous mutations could account for at least 10 percent of cases of schizophrenia, according a study published online last week1.These mutations are deletions or duplications of DNA segments, dubbed copy number variations (CNVs).Although submicroscopic in stature, CNVs have for the past two years been implicated in neurological disorders such as autism and schizophrenia in one high-profile publication after another.Since discovering a schizophrenia-related deletion in chromosome 22q11 more than a decade ago2, Maria Karayiorgou, professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center, suspected other CNVs could also play a role in schizophrenia, but detecting them was tricky.“It was not until very recently that we had the technology to actually look genome-wide fo...
Childhood obesity are we taking this problem seriously?
2008-06-06 14:05:00 Childhood obesity is either a major problem or is already under control according to which report you read according to a recent report in Scotland one in five boys and one in ten girls in Scotland are obese. But this is just the tip of the iceberg this same report also states that by 2020 the figure is anticipated to have increased to 50% or more which is likely to put a massive strain on health services in the future. Medical experts blame the sedentary and almost couch potato like existence of children today who get little exercise in the home environment and most only exercise at school.
Childhood Obesity
2008-06-03 03:26:00 Childhood obesity, a serious problem in the United States for the last 25 years, may have hit its peak. A report published in the May 28 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association indicates that the epidemic may have leveled off during the past eight years. Researchers say that the number of overweight children is still three times what it was back when I was a kid though (in the 1960s and 70s). This is interesting for a few reasons. It could mean that a certain percentage of the population of US children is simply immune to obesity. That’s one of my extremely non-scientific guesses, and was not suggested by any of the research. Researchers didn’t draw any conclusions from the data, but there will no doubt be much study. Is it possible that a segment of US citizens just eat right and exercise and teach their children to do the same? What are your thoughts?
