Importance Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are considered a first-line pharmacological treatment for adolescent depression with moderate or higher levels of symptom severity. Thus, it is important to understand neurobiological changes related SSRIs during the course adolescents depression. Objective To examine associated SSRI in major depressive disorder (MDD) by measuring longitudinal volume and resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) dorsolateral prefrontal cortex...

Seventy eight adolescents major depressive disorder (MDD) (age mean [SD] = 14.9 ± 1.5, 56 girls) 47 healthy controls [14.3 1.4, 26 girls])...

Underconnectivity in the resting brain is not consistent autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, it known that functional connectivity of default mode network mainly decreased childhood ASD. This study investigated topology as changes connection strength and efficiency ASD, including early developmental stages.In this study, 31 ASD children aged 2-11 years were compared with age sex-matched showing typical development. We explored based on graph filtration by assessing single linkage...

Tic disorders are highly heritable; however, growing evidence suggests that environmental factors play a significant role in their pathogenesis. Studies on these have been inconsistent, with conflicting results. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the associations of pre- and perinatal exposure Tourette syndrome (TS) or chronic tic (CTD) Korean school-aged children.This case-control used data from large prospective cohort study. The primary outcome was TS/CTD diagnosis according...

Abstract Background The increase in the number of pediatric patients with complex health conditions necessitates application advance care planning for children. Earlier, withdrawal life-sustaining treatment was taboo medical society South Korea due to history such practice being punishable by law, and physicians tended pursue aggressive treatment. With changes public opinion on end-of-life care, Korean government enacted a new law that protect human dignity respecting patients’...

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties Korean version Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) on a sample youths and cross-cultural differences in adolescents’ anxiety. Methods Our included 147 adolescents (ages 12–17, 92 girls), 93 with major depressive disorder 54 as controls. Participants were evaluated using Kiddie-Schedule Affective Schizophrenia School-Age Children-Present Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL), SCARED, Behavior...

BackgroundWith advances in medical technology, the survival rate of child and adolescent patients who are treated for life-threatening diseases is dramatically improving [1], but deaths from incurable severe continue to occur.Among all (among individuals younger than 19 years) South Korea 2014, 35.8% (1,044

Abstract Background Pediatric palliative care supports children and young adults with life-limiting conditions their families, seeking to minimize suffering enhance quality of life. This study evaluates the impact specialized (SPC) on advance planning (ACP) patterns end-of-life for patients who died in hospital. Methods is a retrospective cohort medical records extracted from clinical data warehouse, covering aged 0–24 an academic tertiary children’s hospital South Korea. Participants were...

Despite medical advancements in neonatal survival rates, many children have poor neurological outcomes. Because the law Korea restricts withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment to only cases imminent death, discontinuation may not be an option, even patients with prognosis. This study investigated opinions general population and clinicians regarding such using hypothetical scenarios. We conducted a cross-sectional on web-based questionnaire. The sample from online panel comprised 500...

The vegetative state (VS) after severe acute brain injury (SABI) is associated with significant prognostic uncertainty and poor long-term functional outcomes. However, it generally distinguished from imminent death exempt the Life-Sustaining Treatment (LST) Decisions Act in Korea. Here, we aimed to examine perspectives of general population (GP) clinicians regarding decisions on mechanical ventilator withdrawal patients a VS SABI.

Korea's transition into a super-aged society brings to the forefront escalating dementia prevalence and consequent rise in mortality, highlighting need for effective end-of-life (EOL) care strategies. Despite legislative advancements, gaps remain addressing medical ethical challenges of EOL patients with advanced dementia, particularly evaluating treatment options like nasogastric tube (NGT) use mechanical ventilation (MV). This study investigates attitudes general population (GP) clinicians...

Many neurologic disorders manifest as psychiatric symptoms. Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis is an autoimmune disease of the brain characterized by numerous neurological and features. Despite being rare, its prevalence rapidly increasing early management critical in ensuring successful sustainable recovery. Therefore, illness should be considered a differential diagnosis when clinically assessing patients. This report presents case female child who was hospitalized for...
