RESUMEN

For children, own adverse experiences, as well as their exposure to intimate partner violence poses a severe risk for health and development. In order to answer the question of intergenerational transmission of family violence, adverse childhood experiences in mothers are considered to be a significant risk factor for the occurrence of child maltreatment and intimate partner violence in families, which, however, has been little studied in Germany. Therefore, this paper uses cross-sectional data of 5.646 mothers that was taken fromthe representative study "Kinder in Deutschland - KiD 0-3". Multiple binary-logical regression models were calculated in order to examine the influence ofmaternal adverse childhood experiences on various forms of family violence. As a result, 823 mothers (9,3 %) reported adverse childhood experiences; 157 (2,8 %) admitted that their child had already been exposed to physical harm or harsh punishment, and 168 (3,0%) reported intimate partner violence since the birth of their child, respectively 493 (8,7 %) since any past relationship. Taking demographic and socioeconomic factors into account, the occurrence of all three forms of violence becamemore likely inmothers with adverse childhood experiences: physical harm of the child (OR = 2,78, p ≤ 0,001), current intimate partner violence of themother (OR = 3,76, p ≤ 0,001), as well as her lifetime experiences in general (OR = 3,67, p ≤ 0,001). Therefore, the support and guidance of families (e.g., by early childhood interventions) should take into account the connection between negative maternal childhood experiences, as well as familial forms of violence, and, if applicable, make generous preventative offers. In case of signs for familial violence, additional protective steps should be applied.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a potential risk associated with the percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) for chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) particularly with pre-existing chronic kidney disease (CKD). The determinants of CA-AKI in patients with pre-existing CKD in an era of advanced strategies of CTO recanalization techniques need to be considered for a risk evaluation of the procedure. METHODS: A consecutive cohort of 2504 recanalization procedures for a CTO between 2013 and 2022 was analyzed. Of these, 514 (20.5%) were done in patients with CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 ml/min based on the most recently used CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation). RESULTS: The rate of patients classified to have CKD would be lower with 14.2% using the Cockcroft-Gault equation, and 18.1% using the modified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation. The technical success was high with 94.9% and 96.8% (p = 0.04) between patients with and without CKD. The incidence of CA-AKI was 9.9% versus 4.3% (p < 0.001). The major determinants of CA-AKI in patients with CKD were the presence of diabetes and a reduced ejection fraction, as well as periprocedural blood loss, whereas a higher baseline hemoglobin and the use of the radial approach prevented CA-AKI. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with CKD CTO PCI could be performed successfully at a higher cost of CA-AKI. Correcting preprocedural anemia and avoiding intraprocedural blood loss may reduce the incidence of CA-AKI.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a potential risk associated with the percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) for chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO). This study should evaluate the incidence of CA-AKI in an era of advanced strategies of recanalization techniques and identify modifiable determinants. METHODS: We analysed 1924 consecutive CTO procedures in 1815 patients between 2012 and 2019. All patients were carefully monitored at least up to 48 h after a CTO procedure for changes in renal function. RESULTS: The incidence of CA-AKI was 5.6%, but there was no relation to the technical approach such as frequency of the retrograde technique, intravascular ultrasound or radial access. Procedures with CA-AKI had longer fluoroscopy times (37.6 vs 46.1 min; p = 0.005). The major determinants of CA-AKI were age, presence of diabetes and reduced ejection fraction, as well as chronic kidney disease stage ≥2, serum haemoglobin, and fluoroscopy time. Contrast volume or contrast volume/GFR ratio were not independent determinants of CA-AKI. Periprocedural perforations were more frequent in CA-AKI patients (11.3 vs 2.3%; p < 0.001), and in-hospital mortality was higher (2.8 vs 0.4%; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: CA-AKI was associated with the risk of in-hospital adverse events. Established patient-related risk factors for CA-AKI (age, diabetes, preexisting chronic kidney disease, low ejection fraction) were confirmed in this study. In addition, the length of the procedure, coronary perforations and low preprocedural serum haemoglobin were risk factors that might be preventable in patients at high risk for CA-AKI.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The KiD 0-3 national main study is a cross-sectional study on adversity in early childhood and parental access to support services, conducted as part of a long-term policy program for early intervention services in Germany. OBJECTIVE: To identify risk factors for child abuse, neglect and exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV) and investigate if parental use of early intervention programs or contact to child welfare services was associated with reported child maltreatment. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING: 8063 families with infants and toddlers participated in the survey. Parents answered a written questionnaire during mandatory health checks for the child. The sampling was based on a regionally clustered model of pediatricians' practices. METHODS: An automatic variable selection process was used to test risk factors and logistic regression models were employed for each outcome. RESULTS: Significant risk factors (p < 0.05) for child abuse (1.91 %) were child age, IPV and parental stress. Neglect (0.83 %) was associated with couple distress, adverse childhood experiences, young maternal age, cramped housing, and migration history. IPV (2.98 %) was associated with child age, couple distress, depression/anxiety, harsh punishment, adverse childhood experiences, young maternal age, and poverty. Parents were more likely to use selective prevention programs in cases of child abuse and exposure to IPV. CONCLUSION: Child abuse is mainly associated with proximal risk factors and neglect with distal factors. Exposure to IPV violence is associated with child abuse as well as with an accumulation of adversities. The association between service use and child maltreatment is discussed.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Psychosocial stress in early childhood can impair children's health and development. Data on the prevalence of psychosocial stress in families with infants and toddlers in Germany are lacking. Such data could be used to determine the need for prevention and to plan the appropriate preventive measures. METHODS: In 2015, a representative cross-sectional study called Kinder in Deutschland- KiD 0-3 was conducted by questionnaire in pediatricians' practices across Germany. Parents taking their children to the U3-U7a child development checks were asked to self-report information about stress in their families. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and chi-square tests. RESULTS: Data from 7549 families went into the analysis. Stressful situations commonly reported by the parents included unplanned pregnancy (21.3%), parenthoodrelated stress (e.g., self-doubt as to parenting competence, 29.6%), and lack of familial and social support for problems and questions arising in relation to the child, as well as for temporary child care (19.7%). Most types of psychosocial stress varied as a function of the child's age group, as categorized by the particular examination for which the child was presenting at the time of the survey (U3-U7a). Couple distress, lack of social support, signs of depression or anxiety symptoms, or inner anger were more commonly reported by parents attending the later examina - tions. Such problems could be addressed by supportive measures (e.g., parent counseling, early child intervention). CONCLUSION: Psychosocial stress affects a large percentage of the parents of small children. A large proportion of parents of small children suffer from psychosocial stress. This should be monitored for accumulation and stability across child development checks and addressed as appropriate. Family practitioners and pediatricians are important partners for effective cooperation between the social system and the health-care system, and for the provision of preventive measures where appropriate.

RESUMEN

A fundamental hypothesis in neuroscience proposes that underlying cellular architecture (cytoarchitecture) contributes to the functionality of a brain area. However, this hypothesis has not been tested in human ventral temporal cortex (VTC) that contains domain-specific regions causally involved in perception. To fill this gap in knowledge, we used cortex-based alignment to register functional regions from living participants to cytoarchitectonic areas in ex vivo brains. This novel approach reveals 3 findings. First, there is a consistent relationship between domain-specific regions and cytoarchitectonic areas: each functional region is largely restricted to 1 cytoarchitectonic area. Second, extracting cytoarchitectonic profiles from face- and place-selective regions after back-projecting each region to 20-µm thick histological sections indicates that cytoarchitectonic properties distinguish these regions from each other. Third, some cytoarchitectonic areas contain more than 1 domain-specific region. For example, face-, body-, and character-selective regions are located within the same cytoarchitectonic area. We summarize these findings with a parsimonious hypothesis incorporating how cellular properties may contribute to functional specialization in human VTC. Specifically, we link computational principles to correlated axes of functional and cytoarchitectonic segregation in human VTC, in which parallel processing across domains occurs along a lateral-medial axis while transformations of information within domain occur along an anterior-posterior axis.

RESUMEN

Areas of the fusiform gyrus (FG) within human ventral temporal cortex (VTC) process high-level visual information associated with faces, limbs, words, and places. Since classical cytoarchitectonic maps do not adequately reflect the functional and structural heterogeneity of the VTC, we studied the cytoarchitectonic segregation in a region, which is rostral to the recently identified cytoarchitectonic areas FG1 and FG2. Using an observer-independent and statistically testable parcellation method, we identify 2 new areas, FG3 and FG4, in 10 human postmortem brains on the mid-FG. The mid-fusiform sulcus reliably identifies the cytoarchitectonic transition between FG3 and FG4. We registered these cytoarchitectonic areas to the common reference space of the single-subject Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) template and generated probability maps, which reflect the intersubject variability of both areas. Future studies can relate in vivo neuroimaging data with these microscopically defined cortical areas to functional parcellations. We discuss these results in the context of both large-scale functional maps and fine-scale functional clusters that have been identified within the human VTC. We propose that our observer-independent cytoarchitectonic parcellation of the FG better explains the functional heterogeneity of the FG compared with the homogeneity of classic cytoarchitectonic maps.
