An interpretation of Global Consensus Recommendations on Prevention and Management of Nutritional Rickets in 2016

来自全球17个国家的11个国际科学组织的营养性佝偻病相关的专家，在评估营养性佝偻病特定问题的医学证据，达成循证医学的全球共识。于2016年在美国《临床内分泌和代谢杂志》发表了“营养性佝偻病预防和管理建议的全球共识”，提出了预防和治疗营养性佝偻病的新概念和新原则，不再使用“维生素D缺乏性佝偻病”，而采用“营养性佝偻病”，并且提出了新的定义；强调同时补充钙和维生素D预防和治疗营养性佝偻病，推荐性价比较高的碳酸钙制剂。Nutritional rickets-related experts from the 11 international scientific organizations 17 countries have made a global consensus on evidence-based medicine by assessing the medical evidence of specific problems of nutritional rickets. "Global Consensus Recommendations on Prevention and Management of Nutritional Rickets " was published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism in 2016, and put forward the new concepts and new principles of prevention and treatment of nutritional rickets. This is no longer use of "vitamin D deficiency rickets" and the "nutritional rickets", a newdefinition was proposed"; It also stressed the use of calcium and vitamin D supplementation to prevent and treat nutritional rickets, and recommend cost-effective calcium carbonate preparations.

On the centrality of tenure in spatial data systems for coastal/marine management: International exemplars versus emerging practice in Ireland

Although it is often overlooked, access to data regarding ‘tenure’ is of primary importance in underpinning coastal management and marine spatial planning (MSP). National, regional and international coastal/marine spatial data management exemplars demonstrate the need for clarity and certainty with respect to legal coastal/marine geographies (i.e. the basis for achieving security of tenure). Good practice in MSP is underpinned by four key pillars (use’, ‘value’, ‘development’ and ‘tenure’ (U,V,D,T)). The exemplars demonstrate the importance of currency in the statutory delineation of the coastline (HWM) and the spatial extent of the ‘coastal zone’ and tenure therein.The National Marine Planning Framework (NMPF), established in Ireland in 2021, provides the foundations for three of the interrelated management (U,V,D) pillars but those relating to ‘tenure’ are largely absent. Coastal/marine management platforms and data gateways have yet to be fully developed to meet emerging marine/offshore obligations while national data portals remain primarily terrestrial in focus. Early steps to create a MSP ‘one stop’ web portal (MarinePlan.ie) are rather limited when benchmarked against international exemplars that do include information related to tenure. This is particularly important as legislation enacting the adoption of the NMPF extends planning control and the marine consent authorisations process of Irish Coastal Local Authorities (CLAs) to also include the nearshore (three nautical miles seaward from High Water Mark (HWM)). To achieve MSP targets, information on coastal/marine legal and regulatory interests across the land/sea interface needs to match that currently available in terrestrial settings

Genetic, environmental and gender influences on attachment disorder behaviours

Background Despite current interest in attachment disorder, there is concern about its discrimination from other disorders and an unproven assumption of an environmental aetiology. Aims To test whether behaviours suggestive of attachment disorder are distinct from other childhood behavioural and emotional problems and are solely environmentally determined. Method In a community sample of 13 472 twins, we carried out factor analysis of questionnaire items encompassing behaviours indicative of attachment disorder, conduct problems, hyperactivity and emotional difficulties. We used behavioural genetic model-fitting analysis to explore the contribution of genes and environment. Results Factor analysis showed clear discrimination between behaviours suggestive of attachment disorder, conduct problems, hyperactivity and emotional problems. Behavioural genetics analysis suggested a strong genetic influence to attachment disorder behaviour, with males showing higher heritability. Conclusions Behaviours suggestive of attachment disorder can be differentiated from common childhood emotional and behavioural problems and appear to be strongly genetically influenced, particularly in boys. INTRODUCTION TOP ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION METHOD RESULTS DISCUSSION REFERENCES There have been recent attempts to codify behaviours associated with early neglect and institutionalisation (Chisolm et al, 1995; Zeanah et al, 2004) into a psychiatric category. Both DSM–IV and ICD–10 describe reactive attachment disorder, with two subtypes encompassing inhibited and disinhibited behaviour (World Health Organization, 1992; American Psychiatric Association, 1994). Questions remain about the nosology of the syndrome beyond age 5 years (American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 2005), therefore we simply refer to ‘attachment disorder behaviours’. We seek to extend the extant literature by testing two hypotheses: first, that the two subtypes are distinct from one another and from other common behavioural and emotional problems in young children, and second that these behavioural patterns are environmentally mediated. We capitalise on a twin study, a design that provides particular leverage in testing environmental hypotheses
