“…Subjects with the following conditions were also excluded: a lifetime history of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective, or other psychiatric disorders; hypertension; cardiovascular disease; diabetes mellitus; obesity; liver cirrhosis; fatty liver disease; irritable bowel syndrome; inflammatory bowel disease; drug or alcohol abuse in the previous year; use of antibiotics, probiotics, prebiotics, or synbiotics in the 6 months before fecal sample collection; known active bacterial, fungal, or viral infections; and obvious dietary preferences (e.g., vegetarians). All patients completed the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24) and the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) to obtain a clinical rating of the severity of depression and anxiety (40,41). Both scales were independently administered by two psychiatrists that were blinded to the clinical status of the participants and had attended a training session on how to administer the tests before the start of the study.…”

Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD) and general anxiety disorder (GAD) share many common features, leading to numerous challenges in their differential diagnosis. Given the importance of the microbiota–gut–brain axis, we investigated the differences in gut microbiota between representative cases of these two diseases and sought to develop a microbiome-based approach for their differential diagnosis.Methods: We enrolled 23 patients with MDD, 21 with GAD, and 10 healthy subjects (healthy crowd, HC) in the present study. We used 16S rRNA gene-sequencing analysis to determine the microbial compositions of the gut microbiome based on Illumina Miseq and according to the standard protocol.Results: GAD showed a significant difference in microbiota richness and diversity as compared with HC. Additionally, Otu24167, Otu19140, and Otu19751 were significantly decreased in MDD relative to HC, and Otu2581 and Otu10585 were significantly increased in GAD relative to MDD. At the genus level, the abundances of Sutterella and Fusicatenibacter were significantly lower in MDD relative to HC, and the abundances of Fusicatenibacter and Christensenellaceae_R7_group were significantly lower in GAD than in HC. The abundance of Sutterella was significantly higher whereas that of Faecalibacterium was significantly lower in GAD relative to MDD. Moreover, we observed that Christensenellaceae_R7_group negatively correlated with the factor score (Limited to Hopelessness) and total score of HAMD-24 (p < 0.05), whereas Fusicatenibacter negatively correlated with FT4 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the GAD group showed significant differences at the genus level for Faecalibacterium, which negatively correlated with PTC (p < 0.05).Conclusions: This study elucidated a unique gut-microbiome signature associated with MDD and GAD that could facilitate differential diagnosis and targeted therapy.

“…Parents Report Satisfaction Initial research indicates that parents who have been awarded joint custody are generally very satisfied with it (Abarbanel, 1979;Grief, 19'T9;Ahrons, 1980;Fine, 1980;Steinman, 1981). Ahrons (1980, p. 92) reported that the major reasons given for this satisfaction were" 1) having access to both parents was better for their children; and 2) the joint custody arrangement permitted more flexibility for child care."…”

“…Some writers have argued that siblings provide emotional support for each other (Fine, 1980), which is especially necessary after divorce, because the stress that the children suffer from losing a parent (Wallerstein, 1983) is further exacerbated by the deprivation of the siblings support system (Derdeyn, 1977). Rosen's (1977) findings, however, indicate that siblings do not necessarily provide support for each other.…”

The criteria used respectively by mental health professionals and legal professionals in child custody assessments are reviewed. The review concentrates on case precedents and the psychological literature in an attempt to delineate the major criteria on which custody decisions are based. Differences in assumptions between the two groups of professionals are highlighted.'n Oorsig word gegee van die kriteria wat in voogdyskapgevalle gebruik word deur professionele persone in die geestesgesondheids-en wetlike beroepe. Die oorsig konsentreer op gevallepresedente en die sielkundige literatuur in 'n poging om die hoofkriteria te beskryf waarop besluite aangaande voogdyskap gebaseer is. Verskille in die veronderstellings van persone in hierdie twee professies word uitgelig.
