Abstract:
OCD is a neuropsychiatric illness that often begins in childhood, has significant impact on family, academic, occupational, and social functioning. OCD has complex genetic underpinnings, with a 10-fold increased risk among siblings of OCD-affected youth. Attempts to identify OCD vulnerability contributory genes have had suboptimal results partially due to the heterogeneous nature of OCD that prevents the differentiation of external symptoms in genetically homogenous subgroups. Although genetic influences are greater in childhood-onset OCD, most studies have used adult samples. There is increas

Introduction: With the increased survival rates for childhood cancer, the disease is now typically viewed as a chronic rather than a terminal illness.

Adolescents in the United States are currently experiencing a mental health crisis. While evidence shows that parents play an important role in shaping the mental health of youth, little has been done to understand how siblings may contribute to the psychological well-being of adolescents. I examine this association through the lenses of social capital and resource dilution perspectives. Social capital theory suggests that siblings may act as an additional source of resources, such as social support, which promote positive mental health.

Exacerbations were associated with a decline in the gas transfer of the lung over time, but show no relationship to changes in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1). However, despite lung function decline, patients do not show a progressive loss in health status. Index
