development remains scarce9. The development of sleep has also been explored in rodents, but the effects of early life adversity on sleep primarily focus on adult outcomes8,24,25. Here, we ask how early life adversity outcomes across the lifespan interact with the changes in sleep architecture ...

However, prior research has not assessed how victimisation trajectories across different stages of the life-course correspond to sleep outcomes. The present study assesses how trajectories of violent victimisation from adolescence to middle adulthood correspond to sleep behaviours in adulthood. Methods Data...
Newborns wore either light clothing (bodysuit and a light wrapping) or heavy clothing (pyjamas, cardigan and sleep-sack). The percentages of time each subject spent in different postures were compared between clothing situations. Arm and hand postures differed in relation to clothing: babies bent ...
This problem is most acute in young women with anorexia, as your body puts down the greatest amount of bone during adolescence. When compared to peers, girls with anorexia have very low rates of bone accrual.[5] They can strengthen their bones later in life, but their amenorrhea puts them...
1 Unfortunately, there is no uniformconsensus on the definition of childhood obesity, and thelack of a standard definition and consistent anthropometricmeasure has resulted in varying epidemiological reports ofchildhood obesity and its complications. For countries withgender specific BMI charts of their ...
Consequences of sleep problems It is important to recognize the consequences of unhealthy sleep throughout childhood and adolescence, particularly during sensitive periods of development (e.g., at 5–6 years when starting school; when going through puberty) [16,17,18]. The following section details...
Chronic stress is a major underlying origin of the top leading causes of death, globally. Yet, the mechanistic explanation of the association between stress and disease is poorly understood. This stems from the inability to adequately measure stress in i
There is some evidence that recurrent severe hypoglycaemia in children at an age when the brain is still developing may result in subtle impairment of performance on cognitive function testing in adolescence, especially when seizures have accompanied the hypoglycaemia [55, 56]. In adults data remain...
Research on long-term outcomes of infants exposed to substances in the womb is still evolving. Limited studies have shown an association between neonatal abstinence syndrome and long-term neurodevelopmental consequences that may develop as early as6 months old and persist into adolescence. These include...
