Abstract:
Children and young people with neurological conditions have at least a five times greater risk of developing a mental health disorder than their otherwise healthy peers. Little is known about effective methods for treating mental health disorders in the context of a paediatric chronic physical illness, despite high unmet need and serious adverse consequences. The purpose of this thesis was to develop and evaluate a method of routine identification and treatment of common mental health disorders in children and young people with chronic neurological conditions, using an online diagnostic interv

Abstract:
Anxiety and depression are two highly debilitating disorders with high prevalence and co-morbidity with other mental and physical disorders. Current available treatments for these diseases present major caveats, thus the search for novel targets of treatment are the foremost challenges in health research. In this regard, the neuropeptide Y (NPY) system has emerged as a neuromodulator of emotional processing. This peptide mediates its effects by acting on its Y1, Y2 and Y5 receptor subtypes in the brain. However the contribution of each receptor subtype in emotional processes is still not clear

Active duty personnel as well as combat veterans of the United States often engage in military operations during their service that require deployments to participate in missions, which may lead to extended periods away from home.

Approximately one in six Canadian children suffer from mental health conditions (MHC), including: anxiety, bipolar disorder, and depression. Second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) are increasingly used to treat children with MHCs. Recent evidence suggests that SGAs are implicated in rapid weight gain, increased measures of adiposity, and cardiometabolic dysfunction in the pediatric population. The mechanisms for these adverse side effects have yet to be elucidated. One postulation is that SGAs may increase dietary energy intakes; however, little is known about the diets of SGA-treated childre
