To estimate lifetime prevalence of mental disorders in the Saudi National Mental Health Survey (SNMHS).

The SNMHS is a face-to-face community epidemiological survey in a nationally representative household sample of citizens ages 15-65 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) (n = 4,004). The World Health Organization (WHO) Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) was used to estimate lifetime prevalence of common DSM-IV mental disorders.

Estimated lifetime prevalence of any DSM-IV/CIDI disorder is 34.2% and lifetime morbid risk is 38.0%. Anxiety disorders are by far the most prevalent (23.2%) followed by disruptive behavior (11.2%), mood (9.3%), eating (6.1%), and substance use (4.0%) disorders. Synthetic estimates of cohort effects suggest that prevalence of many disorders has increased in recent cohorts. Onsets typically occur in childhood for a number of anxiety and disruptive behavior disorders and in adolescence or early adulthood for most other disorders, although age-of-onset distributions for drug abuse is much later (median age of 31) than in CIDI surveys carried out in other high-income countries.

Lifetime mental disorders are highly prevalent in Saudi Arabia and typically have early ages-of-onset.

To identify the genetic cause in an adult ovarioleukodystrophy patient resistant to diagnosis.

We applied whole-exome sequencing (WES) to a vanishing white matter disease patient associated with premature ovarian failure at 26years of age. We functionally tested an intronic variant by RT-PCR on patient's peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and by minigene splicing assay.

WES analysis identified two novel variants in the EIF2B5 gene c.725A>G (p.Tyr242Cys) and an intronic noncanonical mutation (c.1156+13G>A). This intronic mutation resulted into generation of various isoforms both in patient's PBMC and in the minigene splicing assay, showing that ~20% residual wild-type isoform is still expressed by the intronic-mutated allele alone, concordant with an hypomorphic effect of this variant.

We report two novel variants in EIF2B5, one of them a noncanonical intronic splice variant, located at a +13 intronic position. This position is mutated only in 0.05% of ClinVar intronic mutations described so far. Furthermore, we illustrate how minigene splicing assay may be advantageous when validating splice-altering variants, in this case highlighting the coexistence of wild-type and mutated forms, probably explaining this patient's milder, late-onset phenotype.

Oral hygiene management of patients with acute stroke is important for preventing aspiration pneumonia and ensuring oral intake. The tongue coating score can be useful for evaluating the oral hygiene level since it reflects the microorganism number on the tongue surface in elderly patients. However, the relationship between the number of oral microorganisms and the tongue coating score in patients with acute stroke remains unclear.

We aimed to investigate the relationships between the microorganism number on the tongue surface and oral factors, including tongue coating score, tongue surface moisture level and tongue function.

This cross-sectional study enrolled 73 patients with acute stroke who were hospitalised at an acute care hospital and underwent dental intervention. Potential explanatory factors, including sex, age, Glasgow Coma Scale score, tongue coating score, tongue surface moisture level, nutrition intake method, number of functional teeth and tongue function, were evaluated. Logistic regressia.

Dental anxiety (DA) negatively impacts oral health-related quality of life, and patients with DA usually require more dental treatment time.

To describe the global prevalence of DA in children and adolescents and to examine the influence of individual factors (age, sex, and caries experience) and variables related to DA measurement on pooled prevalence.

Systematic review with meta-analyses of observational studies published between 1985 and 2020 (PROSPERO CRD42014013879).

Searches yielded 1207 unique records; 224 full-text articles were screened, and 50 studies were used in the qualitative and quantitative synthesis. No study was considered as having high methodological quality according to 'The Joanna Briggs Institute assessment tool'. Overall pooled DA prevalence was 23.9% (95% CI 20.4, 27.3). Pooled prevalence in preschoolers, schoolchildren, and adolescents was as follows 36.5% (95% CI 23.8, 49.2), 25.8% (95% CI 19.5, 32.1), and 13.3% (95% CI 9.5, 17.0), respectively. DA was significantly more prevalent in preschool children (one study) and schoolchildren (two studies) with caries experience and in female adolescents (one study). The scale used for DA assessment was shown to influence pooled prevalence in preschoolers and adolescents.

DA is a frequent problem in 3- to 18-year-olds worldwide, more prevalent in schoolchildren and preschool children than in adolescents.

Solitary drinking in adolescents and young adults is associated with greater risk for alcohol problems, but it is unclear whether this association exists in older demographics. The current paper is the first meta-analysis and systematic review, to our knowledge, to determine whether adult solitary drinking is associated with greater risk for alcohol problems.

PsychINFO, PubMed and Google Scholar were searched following a pre-registered International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) protocol (CRD42019147075) and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) methodology. Following the methodology used in our recent systematic review and meta-analysis on adolescent/young adult solitary drinking, we systematically reviewed solitary drinking measures/definitions, prevalence rates and associated demographic variables in adults. www.selleckchem.com/Bcl-2.html We then meta-analyzed (using random-effects models) associations between adult solitary drinking and alcohol use/problems, negative affect and negative/positive reinforcement-related variables (e.
