Abstract:
The diagnosis of Schizophrenia in children has historically been the source of much psychiatric controversy, especially with regard to classification, treatment and prognosis. This was further complicated by the broad category for the diagnosis of psychotic disorders in childhood in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM 11).This included Schizophrenia in childhood, autism, and other psychotic conditions. The work of Kolvin (1971 a-f) and Rutter (1972), have been instrumental in separating autism and Schizophrenia into distinct categories. This review is not aimed at be

Abstract:
In this study, I explore different aspects of childhood within a particular cultural and social space. I bring the sociology of childhood into dialogue with media studies to explore childhood in the lives of children themselves. In doing so I highlight the parallels that can be drawn between each discipline's approach to children and audiences, respectively. I use the similarities between the two disciplines and methodologies that are compatible with both in order to explore how children interpret constructions of childhood and depictions of children in Turkish media content in North Cyprus.

Abstract The aim of this work was to assess trends in childhood mortality in Finland over the period 1969–2004 and to identify the main preventable causes of death in childhood. Specific topics of interest were childhood mortality due to infectious diseases and possible regional differences in childhood mortality. As accidents are the most common cause of death in childhood, we also analysed regional differences in accidental mortality in childhood between the years 1969 and 2013. Annual neonatal mortality declined by 78%, from 11.13/1000 in 1969 to 2.46/1000 in 2004, with perinatal disorders

The role of immune mediated mechanisms is increasingly recognised in patients with seizures and epilepsies. Recently the term "autoimmune epilepsy" has been used to imply involvement of the adaptive immune system (particularly humoral) in the pathogenesis of epilepsy.

The seizures are often severe and not isolated, but rather accompanied by encephalopathy or other neurologic symptoms. Evidence of brain inflammation might be found
