BMC Pediatr.
- In preschoolers with autism spectrum disorder, high screen time (ST) was linked to higher anxiety/depression scores (60.02 vs. 50.17, p=0.03) and reduced left superior frontal cortical volume (25,232.13 vs. 26,441.19, p=0.02) vs. low ST
- ST correlated positively with anxiety/depression (p=0.02) and negatively with cortical volume (p<0.001)
- The link between ST & anxiety/depression was attributed to cortical volume.

- Prevalence of headache disorders was 34.6% (in 2023) globally, causing 541.9 years lived with disability (YLDs)/1,00,000 population, with migraine being most common (487.5/1,00,000)
- Women had over twice the rate of YLDs vs. men (739.9 vs. 346.1/1,00,000)
- Medication-overuse headache significantly amplified burden (56·1%-58·9% of YLD estimates for tension-type headache & 14·1%-22·6% of YLD estimates for migraines)
14 Nov, 25Hypertension.
- In 2,155,077 adolescents (mean age 17.2 yrs), migraine was linked to higher hypertension risk (OR:3.01) vs nonmigraineurs, severe migraine showed stronger association (OR:4.41)
- Severe hypertension had higher odds (OR:3.34) than mild (OR:2.67) for being linked to migraine
- Targeted hypertension screening in migraine-affected adolescents may be useful.

- Amongst 85,691 T2DM patients, prior psoriasis was linked to higher risks of diabetic retinopathy (DR; HR: 2.111), vision-threatening DR (HR: 2.424), non-proliferative DR (NPDR; HR: 2.152), mild NPDR (HR: 2.082), moderate NPDR (HR: 2.848), PDR (HR: 2.622), and diabetic macular edema (HR 2.312)
- Severe NPDR showed no significant difference
- Clinicians should be vigilant for DR in T2DM patients with psoriasis.
