BOCA RATON, FL, November 17, 2010 (Press-News.org) Recent scientific studies focus on the importance of exactly what type of mother/child interaction leads to an optimal outcome for the child. Fetus to Fifth Grade provides the most up-to-date scientific research on pregnancy and child care.
"What Dr. Spock didn't tell us about childrearing, Dr. Schapira does. From strategies for saving money to how best to help your baby grow intellectually, this frank and enlightening book provides essential information to help parents plan for and raise children," says Walter F. Baile MD, Professor of Behavioral Science and Psychiatry at University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
"This no-nonsense, research-based book provides a comprehensive insight into the social and emotional development of a child's first years of life and the impact on parenting practices. The complexities involved in raising a child are addressed in an outstandingly easy-to-read manner," says Bradley Waldron, Executive Director for the Education Services Division, Clark County School District.

How do neural stem cells decide what to be -- and when?
2010-11-16
SINGAPORE – Researchers at Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School in Singapore have uncovered a novel feedback mechanism that controls the delicate balance of brain stem cells.
Zif, a newly discovered protein, controls whether brain stem cells renew themselves as stem cells or differentiate into a dedicated type of neuron (nerve cell).
In preclinical studies, the researchers showed that Zif is important for inhibiting overgrowth of neural stem cells in fruit flies (genus Drosophila) by ensuring that a proliferation factor (known as aPKC) maintains appropriate levels in ...
New study affirms handwriting problems affect children with autism into the teenage years
2010-11-16
The handwriting problems that affect children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are likely to continue into their teenage years, according to a study from the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore, Md. The research is published in the November 16, 2010 issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
In 2009, Kennedy Krieger researchers conducted the first study to examine handwriting quality in children with ASD, finding that motor skills (e.g., timed movements) predicted handwriting deficits. This latest study revealed that, like children ...

Disruptive behaviour disorders in male teenagers associated with increased risk of road crashes
2010-11-16
Disruptive behaviour disorders in male teenagers, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder are associated with about a one-third increase in the risk of being seriously injured in a road traffic crash – either as driver or pedestrian. This increase is similar to the increased relative risk found for patients treated for epilepsy. These are the findings of a study by Donald Redelmeier and colleagues from the University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, and published in this week's PLoS Medicine. Male teenagers are ...
Analysis of teeth suggests modern humans mature more slowly than Neanderthals did
2010-11-16
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- A sophisticated new examination of teeth from 11 Neanderthal and early human fossils shows that modern humans are slower than our ancestors to reach full maturity. The finding suggests that our characteristically slow development and long childhood are recent and unique to our own species, and may have given early humans an evolutionary advantage over Neanderthals.
The research, led by scientists at Harvard University, the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology (MPI-EVA), and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), is detailed in ...
'At-TRIB(1)-uting' a gene a new function in the liver
2010-11-16
Specific, relatively uncommon variations at a region of human chromosome 8 have recently been linked to fat (lipid) levels in the blood that decrease an individual's risk of atherosclerosis (a disease of the major arterial blood vessels that is a main cause of heart attack and stroke). The only currently described gene in this region of chromosome 8 is TRIB1, but it has not been previously linked in any way to regulation of lipid levels. Now, a team of researchers, led by Jan Breslow, at The Rockefeller University, New York, and Daniel Rader, at the University of Pennsylvania ...
