Microphthalmos in a family.

Details of 22 members from three generations of a family exhibiting systemic and ocular abnormalities are presented. The former include mild mental retardation and a high incidence of abortion or death in the neonatal period. Ocular features comprise: microphthalmos, strabismus, hypermetropia, reduced ocular axial length and abnormal peripapillary pigmentation. The microphthalmos was seen in three forms: bilateral, severe or mild and severe microphthalmos of one eye with the fellow eye mildly affected. No individual with any degree of microphthalmos had a normal sized fellow eye and no normal …

Family size and delinquency.

A review of the literature shows that large family size is related to greater delinquency. The relationship remains when a number of variables, i.e., income, socioeconomic status, parental criminality, and family composition, have been controlled. The higher birth rate for lower classes does not appear to be an adequate explanation for this relationship, nor does less close parent-child affectional ties or less parental supervision although all of these may have some influence. The presence of an "infectious example" may partly account for the relationship, as does overcrowding. Large family s…

Narcolepsy: a family study.

We obtained medical and psychological assessments and 48-hr polysomnographic recordings on five sisters, three of whom had narcolepsy. Of the three, two were identical twins. All three narcoleptic sisters cited emotional stress and environmental demands for sustained performance as the major factors which aggravated their symptoms, and corresponding to this, the illness followed a different life course in each of the three. Most striking were the differences between the twin sisters in clinical symptoms and polysomnographic signs. One sister suffered from all the symptoms of narcolepsy and her

Клинические и патологические особенности вируса Западного Нила у коренных североамериканских сов (Family strigidae).

Со времени первоначального сообщения о вирусе Западного Нила на северо-востоке Соединенных Штатов в 1999 году этот вирус быстро распространился по всей стране на запад и юг. Летом 2002 года несколько среднезападных штатов сообщили о росте случаев неврологических заболеваний и смертности, связанных с вирусом Западного Нила, в различных коренных североамериканских видах совы. В настоящем докладе резюмируются клинические и патологические результаты по 13 пленным и свободно обитающим совым. Затронутые виды были в семействе Стригидае и включали семь снежных сов (Nyctea sandiaca), четыре величествен

Neurologic signs identified included head tilt, uncoordinated flight, paralysis …

Caring for Chosen Family: A Scoping Review of Clinical Work With Chosen Family.

This scoping review provides an overview of empirical research and practice-based literature that addresses direct clinical practice with chosen families-familial relationships that are not based on biology or law. Given the prevalence of chosen family among sexual and gender minorities as well as the amount of research that underlines chosen family as an important social support, this paper aims to synthesize recommendations for clinical work with chosen families and to highlight gaps in the literature. Using the five-step Arksey and O'Malley (2005) scoping review process, four electronic dat…

Youth Reentry from Prison and Family Violence Perpetration: the Salience of Family Dynamics.

The central role of family within the process of juvenile reentry from a term of incarceration has been well documented by researchers and practitioners alike. However, family violence among previously incarcerated youth remains alarmingly high across the United States. Drawing from differential coercion and social support theory, we examine how family dynamics may simultaneously promote and/or inhibit family violence perpetration among youth undergoing the process of reentry. Four waves of panel data from the male-only youth subsample of the Serious and Violent Offender Reentry Initiative are…
