The prevalence of sleep related breath disorders (SRBDs) in children affected by epilepsy is debatable. While some authors did not report any difference in the rate of SRBD between children with epilepsy and the healthy population, other authors reported a statistically higher incidence in children with epilepsy. SRBDs affect 0.7-3% of children in the general pediatric population, and the prevalence of SRBD reported in children with epilepsy is 6-80%, including sleep breathing disorders in 20-80% and obstructive sleep apnea in 6-60%. A widely used and validated instrument to evaluate SRBDs is the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ), developed by Chervin et al. in 2000 [1]. This is a 22-item parent-completed questionnaire with a sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 87% for the diagnosis of SRBDs, with a suggested cut-off of ≥0.33. Moreover, the PSQ is able to identify symptoms related to poor quality of sleep, such as day time sleepiness (≥2 of 4 symptoms reported in items B1, B2, B4, B6) and ADHD symptoms (≥3 of 6 symptoms reported in items C3, C5, C8, C10, C14, C18) [2].

Fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects both males and females but males are more severely affected than females. It is characterized by intellectual and learning disabilities, behavioral and or psychiatric comorbidities, mildly dysplastic connective tissue, and large testes. Fragile X cases have more than 200 repeats of the trinucleotide CGG at a fragile locus of the X chromosome (Xq27.3) which affords the basis of the molecular diagnosis of the syndrome. Although there is no current curative treatment of Fragile X syndrome, there are many available therapeutic modalities that can be used to control its manifestations and improve the quality of life of its sufferers. Lastly but by no means least, it is well documented that the earlier the diagnosis and implementation of early intervention and individualized rehabilitation programs, the better the prognosis.

This review focusing on studies on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention disorder hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which consists of assessment and intervention on three main domains; neuropsychological (cognitive), social interaction and behavioral problems. Majority of the studies reviewed used non-randomized control studies which involves mostly children, some adolescence and few adults, who are diagnosed as either ASD, ADHD or ASD +ADHD. The outcome of these studies mostly shows positive results in improving autism symptom such as cognitive skills impairment, social interaction dysfunctions between child and parents and behavioral problem. Children with ASD that undergone occupational therapy using sensory integration needed less caregiver assistance during selfcare and social activities. Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) challenges the child to improve communication and increased parental self-efficacy. Social skills training (SST) promote social competence and friendship and decreasing feelings of loneliness. Animal companionship increases alertness and attention in human, which might promote enhance concentration and task persistence and promote calming effect in children suffering from ADHD. Mind-Body Therapies showed positive results in mental and emotional health and decreased in behavioral problems in children with ASD. In parent -mediated early intervention for children with ASD, children’s language, adaptive skills and parents stress showed no significance change. Despite of small to medium improvement, there were little scientific evidence of effectiveness of each type of intervention that could be suggested as best suited therapy for children with ASD and ADHD. Therefore, it was suggested to have standardized training technique as a promising area for future research along with continuous monitoring is needed in the long term to see the results in these children.

Learning styles like (Visual, Auditory, Kinaesthetic) as in the VAK theory and (Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, Kinaesthetic) as in VARK, and the Mind Styles Model (i.e. concrete vs. abstract perceptual abilities and sequential vs. random ordering abilities)—propose in one way or another individualisation of education (i.e. mainly here learning and teaching languages as in TESL and TEFL). Similarly, learning theories propose different interpretations for the system of learning as in (behaviourism, constructivism, cognitivism, social psychology, and connectionism)— through which learning and teaching should take place. Five models were proposed approaching these issues with the first model for the vocabulary system (i.e. form aspect(s), meaning aspect(s), and distribution aspect(s), the second model for integration of learning theories and five types of aids (visual, audio, audio-visual, action and multimedia aids), the third, fourth and fifth models for three learning styles’ theories (i.e. VAK, VARK, and the Mind Styles Model). Given that my approach was only based on my designed models inspired by the original theories, conclusions included that experimental and behavioural based evidence is needed to give credibility for the effectiveness of using learning styles towards more effective teaching of vocabulary. With this in mind, it was proposed that learning styles could be used as indicators other than reliable and valid diagnostic tools for he learners’ preferences-helping teachers to consider the use of as many as possible of the five introduced types of aids while teaching vocabulary-enhancing the implications from the learning theories, too.

Objective: The imbalance between increased oxidative stress and reduced antioxidant defense has been implicated in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Which of these has a greater impact on ASD behavioral symptoms is still unclear. We measured urinary levels of the oxidative stress biomarker hexanoyl-lysine (HEL), the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and the DNA methylation biomarker 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8- OHdG) and their relation to the plasma levels of the oxidative stress biomarker superoxide dismutase (SOD) and of the anti-inflammatory fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Methods: We studied the relationships between these biomarkers and behavioral symptoms in 19 individuals with ASD (mean age 10.9 ± 5.3 years) and 11 healthy controls (mean age 14.3 ± 6.3 years). Behavioral symptoms were evaluated using the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC). Results: Ages were not significant difference between two groups. The ASD group showed significantly reduced levels of urinary TAC and significantly increased levels of urinary HEL compared to the control group. Urinary 8- OHdG levels or plasma SOD and EPA levels were not significantly different between the two groups. The ABC subscale and total scores were significantly higher in the ASD group had significantly higher ABC subscale and total scores than he control group. Stepwise regression analysis and the standardized regression coefficient indicated that urinary TAC levels provided greater impact for distinguishing the two groups. There was significant correlation between the urinary TAC levels and plasma EPA levels and the ABC irritability scores. Conclusion: Urinary TAP levels may be important in the imbalance between the urinary levels of HEL and TAC, and altered plasma SOD levels may contribute to this imbalance.

Adolescents are more vulnerable to internet addiction (IA) as they have less ability to control their enthusiasm for internet activities. In this study, a descriptive approach was used to assess the level of IA and its impact among high school students. A conceptual framework was based on Roy’s Adaptation Model. The tool consisted of a baseline proforma, a modified form of IA test and a structured questionnaire developed during the study. Those tools were employed to assess the level of IA and its impact among adolescents of English medium high schools. Opinions from fourteen experts were used to modify the tools for the validity. The reliability of the tool was determined by using a split half technique. The reliability was measured by Karl Pearson’s coefficient correlation and was found to be reliable. The study revealed that majority (70.5%) of the adolescents were normal users, 23% had a mild addiction, 6% had a moderate addiction and 0.5% had a severe addiction. The majority (73%) of samples had a mild impact, 16.5% had a moderate impact, and 10.5% had no impact. Some of their demographic variables like age, class, and occupation of fathers have significant associations with both IA and impact of IA.

Literature on adolescent delinquency indicated strong family bonds acted as protective factors against delinquent behaviors, hence brings significance to study attachment styles. The purpose of the present study is to determine the relationship between Fear of compassion and then, Callous-unemotional traits in relation to attachment styles. The study further examined the relationship between Fear of compassion and Callous-unemotional traits. A purposive sample of 177 adolescents in detention centers were assessed using a Relationship Questionnaire with Fear of Compassion Scale and Inventory of Callous-unemotional Traits - Youth. Findings of the study indicated Fear of compassion is not significant in relation to attachment styles. However, Callous-unemotional traits were significantly related to attachment styles. Additionally, Fear of Compassion suggested predictive value to Callousunemotional traits. The study provides a contextual perspective on the importance of attachments styles in the wider context of familial relationships for adolescents.
