Abstract Background Children with below average cognitive ability represent a substantial yet under-researched population for whom and social demands, which increase in complexity year by year, may pose significant challenge.

BACKGROUND Shared genetic influences between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms have been reported. Cross-trait genetic relationships are, however, subject to dynamic changes during development. We investigated the continuity of genetic overlap between ASD and ADHD symptoms in a general population sample during childhood and adol...

BACKGROUND Several studies have shown that children who are relatively young within a school year are at greater risk for poorer school performance compared with their older peers. One study also reported that relative age within a school year is an independent risk factor for emotional and behavioral problems. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that relatively younger adole...

Conventionally, bidirectional optogenetic switches are controlled with linear excitation (e.g., monochromatic CW light), which has serious limitations when there is a spectral overlap between the “on” and “off” states of switch. The crosstalk lowers selectivity photoactivation step, resulting in moderate photoequilibrium value poor dynamic range for Using stimulated depletion quenching (SDQ), n...

Background: The non-pharmacological interventions for behavioral problems of adolescents diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant (ODD) are great interest to researchers.

BACKGROUND On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake occurred off of Japan's Pacific coast, which was followed by huge tsunamis that destroyed many coastal cities in the area. Due to the earthquake and subsequent tsunami, malfunctions occurred at the Fukushima Daiichi (Fukushima I) nuclear power plant, resulting in the release of radioactive material in the region. While recent studies have...
