Dementia: Children also suffer from amnesia, new research can open the way for treatment

Typically, childhood dementia is caused by one of more than 100 rare genetic disorders. Although its causes are different from senile dementia, the gradual progression of the disease is similar in both. Children with childhood dementia do not live to their tenth birthday and most die before the age of 18. Yet, most people are not aware of this terrible condition and, importantly, have not paid attention to research that could help find treatments and cures. Causes of childhood dementia Most forms of childhood dementia are caused by mutations (or mistakes) in our DNA. These mistakes lead to a variety of rare genetic disorders, which in turn cause childhood dementia. Two-thirds of childhood dementia disorders are caused by 'inborn metabolic defects'. This means that the metabolic pathways involved in the breakdown of carbohydrates, lipids, fatty acids, and proteins in the body fail. As a result, neural pathways fail to function, neurons (nerve cells that send messages throughout the body) die and progressive cognitive decline occurs. What is the effect on children? Most children do not appear affected initially. However after a period of normal development, children with childhood dementia gradually lose all previously learned skills and abilities, such as talking, walking, learning, remembering, and reasoning. Childhood dementia also causes significant changes in behavior, such as aggression and hyperactivity. Severe sleep problems are common and eyesight and work may also be affected. Many children suffer from seizures. The age at which symptoms start can vary, partly depending on the particular genetic disorder causing dementia, but on average it is around two years. These symptoms are caused by severe, progressive damage to the brain. Is there any treatment available? Treatments for childhood dementia are currently under evaluation or approved for a very limited number of disorders and are only available in some parts of the world. These include gene replacement, gene-modified cell therapy, and protein or enzyme replacement therapy. Enzyme replacement therapy is available in Australia for a form of childhood dementia. These treatments attempt to correct the problems causing the disease and have shown promising results. Lack of attention to research The death rate for children suffering from cancer in Australia has almost halved between 1997 and 2017. The main reason for this is the progress made in research which has helped in developing many types of treatments. But over the past few decades, nothing has changed for children suffering from childhood dementia. Between 2017 and 2023, childhood cancer research will receive four times more funding per patient than childhood dementia research. This is when every year the number of deaths from childhood dementia is equal to the number of deaths from childhood cancer. The success achieved for childhood cancer patients shows that providing adequate funding for medical research can improve the health of patients. Another major problem for children with childhood dementia in Australia is the lack of access to clinical trials. An analysis published in March this year showed that by December 2023, only two clinical trials in Australia were enrolling patients with childhood dementia. (PC: Freepik)

Health issue: Eating cut fruits by adding salt or sugar is harmful, it can cause harm to health.

Have you eaten watermelon by sprinkling salt on it or adding chaat masala to guava in summer? Have you tasted melon mixed with sugar? Often people cut and eat fresh fruits or make salads from them. To make fruit salad, people sprinkle chaat masala or salt on cut fruits. This increases the taste of the fruit. At home, we also make salad by cutting onion, cucumber, etc., and adding salt to it. Many times people add sugar to cut fruits to further increase the sweetness of the fruit. If you also like to eat cut fruits by adding sugar, salt, or chaat masala on top, then be careful. Consuming such fruits can be harmful to health. Know the right way to consume fruits so that your health is not adversely affected. Disadvantages of eating fruits mixed with salt According to experts, when salt is sprinkled on cut fruit, it starts releasing water. Due to this, the nutrients present in the fruit get destroyed. At the same time, sodium present in salt or chaat masala affects the kidneys. If you mix chaat masala with salt, then the amount of sodium in the body increases, because chaat masala also contains salt. Disadvantages of consuming sugar mixed with fruits The fruit has a natural sweetness. Glucose is also found in fruits, which increases calories. In such a situation, if you add sugar to the cut fruits, it increases the amount of sweetness in the body. This may increase the problem of diabetes. Excess sugar also increases weight. For patients suffering from diabetes, eating fruits mixed with sugar can be harmful. How to eat fruits There is a right way to consume fruits. People often eat a salad made of fresh fruits with food. Indian food is rich in carbs and calories. But when we consume fruits with food, carbs and calories increase. In such a situation, you can reduce the amount of carbs in food and eat fruits along with it. Otherwise, do not eat food and fruits by mixing them. (PC: ISTOCK)

Important to know: Are you also unable to stay away from your mobile even for a short time? Do you have 'nomophobia'?

Mobile phones have become an important part of our daily lives. From phone calls to payments, we all remain connected to mobile phones. But have you become so dependent on your mobile that you are unable to stay away from it even for a while? Do you feel anxious when there is no mobile phone connectivity? If yes, then be careful, it may be a sign of a problem called nomophobia. Nomophobia is known to be a mental health disorder. Nomophobia- No mobile phone phobia occurs when a person starts experiencing fear or anxiety due to no mobile phone connectivity. There may also be excitement, changes in breathing, and other symptoms. The condition of nomophobia is considered to affect your thinking and the way you deal with situations. No mobile phone phobia problem Staying connected to mobile phones has become a necessity for all of us, but if you get worried even if you stay away from it for some time, then you need to be careful. A 2019 article in the Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care noted that several possible psychological conditions, such as anxiety and stress, may occur before a person develops nomophobia. Researchers said that this problem has increased a lot since the advent of smartphones. How to know if you too have this disorder? Health experts say that apart from anxiety and stress, nomophobia causes many other problems that should be given serious attention. Due to being away from the phone for even a short time, problems like body tremors, sweating and nervousness start occurring. In some situations, there may also be a problem of tachycardia- irregularity in heartbeats. The problem of nomophobia can also be considered more or less similar to that seen in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) patients. What is the reason for this phobia? Many studies have been conducted to understand the reasons behind the panic-anxiety situation that occurs when away from mobile phones. In a review of studies in the year 2020, the team of scientists explained some possible reasons for this. Experts say smartphone-related compulsion can be a reason giving rise to this disorder. Apart from this, there is interpersonal sensitivity in which the person is not able to share his thoughts with others. What to do if you notice symptoms of nomophobia? Since nomophobia is not officially a mental disorder, there is currently no treatment for it. However, some types of therapy and counseling can help overcome the phobia and improve symptoms. If a person shows symptoms of this disorder, then take him to a psychiatrist. Symptoms can be improved with the help of measures like cognitive behavioral therapy. (PC: ISTOCK)

Auto-Brewery Syndrome: In this disease, alcohol starts being produced in the body itself, symptoms are like alcohol intoxication.

Alcohol is considered harmful to health. Due to this, there is a risk of serious diseases ranging from metabolism to cancer. But what if someone's body starts producing alcohol on its own? Recently, a similar case has come to light in Belgium in which a person has been diagnosed with the rare Auto Brewer Syndrome (ABS). Due to this disorder, the body starts converting sugar and starchy foods into alcohol. This can cause symptoms as if you are drunk, even if you have not drunk alcohol. According to media reports, first, the police arrested this person in the drink and drive case. However, the lawyer told the court that he had an ABS problem due to which he was showing intoxication like symptoms. This matter has been highlighted on social media. Let us know what is Auto Brewer Syndrome and what are the reasons responsible for it. Learn about Auto Brewer Syndrome Medical reports suggest that auto-brewery syndrome is a rare condition. It is also sometimes known as drunkenness disease. This rare condition makes you drunk without drinking alcohol. Diagnosing auto-brewery syndrome can often be difficult. Only a few cases of this syndrome have been reported in the last several decades. For people who already have this problem and drink even a small amount of alcohol, its symptoms can become more serious. What is the cause of this syndrome? In auto-brewery syndrome, your body starts making alcohol (ethanol) from carbohydrates. It occurs inside the intestines. Some experts believe that having too much yeast in the intestine can lead to this disorder. Health experts said that whether adults or children, anyone can have the problem of auto-brewery syndrome. Some studies have found that some people are born with congenital problems that trigger this syndrome. In adults, too much yeast in the gut can cause Crohn's disease, which can also trigger auto-brewery syndrome. What is the identity of this problem? Health experts say, auto-brewery syndrome can be diagnosed with the help of some types of symptoms, however, often these patients feel as if they have drunk alcohol, so it can be difficult to diagnose it correctly based on the symptoms. Generally, along with intoxication-like symptoms, dizziness, headache, vomiting, dehydration, fatigue, lack of memory concentration, and mood changes may be felt. What is its treatment? Experts say there is no specific test to detect auto-brewery syndrome. To diagnose this, the doctor may also recommend testing for yeast in the intestines. People who are diagnosed with this syndrome are advised to avoid drinks containing carbohydrates. The help of some types of antifungal medicines can also help in improving the symptoms of the disease. Although this syndrome is quite rare, in some situations it can lead to the development of serious and life-threatening problems. (PC: ISTOCK)

Inspiring: Gave speed to the journey of life by changing the tires of the truck, the life story of this woman mechanic is special

Women have become so empowered that they are flying the flag in every field. From arms to literature, the role of women is increasing. While women are in the defense department of the country, they are flying planes as doctors, engineers, and pilots. There is one such woman, who is a truck mechanic. Have you seen any female truck mechanics around? You may not have seen it, because this is not a normal job for women. But 32-year-old Yedalpalli Adilakshmi, a resident of Sujatha Nagar village of Kothagudem in Telangana, is a truck mechanic. She is probably the only truck mechanic in Telangana who repairs trucks, repairs their engines, and even changes heavy truck tires. Woman becomes truck mechanic Adilakshmi was born into a poor family and never thought that one day she would become a mechanic. Adilakshmi started this work only to help her husband, Veerabhadram, because Veerabhadram had to work away from home for Yedlapalli to earn money. Even when Adilakshmi gave birth to her second child, Veerabhadram could not come to her due to his work, which made Adilakshmi feel very bad. Then she thought that she would open an automobile shop for her husband in the village itself and help him so that Veerabhadram could live with the family. Adilakshmi used to help her husband at the shop, but many customers would turn back after seeing a female mechanic. This made him feel disappointed, and his income was also decreasing. Took responsibility for the husband She then improved her skills by watching her husband fix punctured tires. Similarly, while helping her husband, she became an expert mechanic. Telangana Rashtra Samithi honored him for his work and gifted him a tire-changing machine as well as other machines that could make his work easier. (PC: ISTOCK)

Parenting Tips: If you are getting admission in a new college, then teach these important things to your child in advance.

After the declaration of 10th and 12th board exam results, children are ready to embark on a new journey in life. This journey is from school to college life. After 12th, children decide their career and choose the subject accordingly. Keeping the subject and career in mind, the college is selected and the admission process takes place. This time, if your child is also at the age of leaving school and going to college, then as a parent you are bound to be worried about his career and future. There is a lot of difference between school life and college life. The child who lives in school under the supervision of teachers and parents, now not only grows in age but also moves into an environment where he starts becoming almost independent. From here the child's thoughts begin to develop. Instead of the school bus, now the child is on his way to college by driving his bike, scooter, or car. Along with studies, he is involved in many other activities. All this is a new experience for him, which he can take either positively or negatively. In such a situation, parents should tell some important things before sending their child to college, so that the child does not get lost in college life, but along with achieving his goal, he can also start training to live in society and become self-reliant. In this article, some advice and suggestions are being given for children who are preparing to go to college for the first time, which every parent will have to teach and explain to their children. Difference between school and college Going from school to college is an important period for children. This is the time when the child is in a place completely different from the rules and disciplined life, where he makes his own rules and lives them. College gives children the freedom they long for. In such a situation, so that the child does not start adopting this freedom in a wrong way, explain to him in advance the difference between college and school and also tell him about its seriousness regarding career. Don't just focus on education Even though studies are important and become more serious in college than in school, it is not right to ignore other things by focusing solely on education. Along with studies, encourage the child to spend time with good friends, talk to professors and experience the canteen. Value of money Before going to college, children should also understand the financial system. Every college-going child should know how to spend pocket money wisely. Teach them to appreciate money. Tell them that they have to cover their college expenses with the fixed pocket money. Teach how much and how to spend money on studies, canteen, and friends. Teach cooking Coming to college life means the child becoming self-reliant. In such a situation, the child should be able to do the things he needs to live his life alone without the help of his parents. Like heating water, cooking food, etc. The level of education also increases after coming to college. Many times children go away from home to live in hostels or PGs. In such a situation, the child should know how to cook food for himself when he is hungry. (PC: ISTOCK)

These radish roots are cut and put in a hole covered with straw. After this, the bacteria remain covered with vegetation and soil for about a month to perform their action. It is then dried in the sun and can be stored for up to a year and used in soups. It can also be used as a pickle and eaten with parantha. #Thenthuk One of the most famous dishes of Sikkim is Thenthuk, a type of noodle soup. It is made from vegetables, chicken or mutton, and wheat flour. If you are a vegetarian then you can eat veggie thenthuk.

To enhance the texture of momos, yeast or baking soda is also added to the dough. #Wachipa Wachipa is a traditional Sikkimese dish of the Kirat Rai ethnic group. Powder made from burnt chicken wings is mixed with cooked rice and minced chicken. Due to this, the taste of the powder is bitter.

This mostly happens only for some special occasions. # Dal Bhaat Everyone in Sikkim consumes Dal Bhaat almost every day and it is considered the staple food of Sikkim. This meal is a mixture of boiled rice, lentil soup, and vegetables. Many Indian regions refer to this dish as dal rice.

Vegetables (curry or fried vegetables) and many other side dishes are also included. For those who want to keep things simple and have a light meal, Dal Bhaat is a great option. #Sel roti Sel Roti is a famous and popular Sikkimese popular dish. It is made from rice flour.

DC Edit | Rising air travel to boost India

Four years after the Covid-19 pandemic turned businesses upside down, the airport sector is expected to see a 30 per cent growth in the current financial year ending on March 31, 2025, suggesting a robust economic growth in the country. The growth rate was calculated based on a study of 10 top private airports conducted by Crisil Ratings. The study forecast a 10 per cent increase in passenger traffic in the country over the previous financial year. About two-thirds of the increase in the revenue of airports is expected to come from aeronautical sources such as fees collected from passengers, airlines and cargo operators for use of infrastructure. A strong growth in this segment indicates that people both for personal and professional reasons would travel more by air. As air travel correlates with economic growth, the growth in the income of the airport sector would show up the macroeconomic indicators of the country. The Crisil Ratings study also forecasts a 15 per cent growth in non-aeronautical sources, which include income from advertising, retail, lounge and duty-free shops. It means people have more surplus income to spend on non-essential items, which are generally available in the airports. These have been increasing steadily, driven by rising passenger spends on retail and food and beverage, as well as real estate leasing and advertising. As air travel is still not an affordable option for all classes in the country, any growth in the sector would suggest that the income of the upper middle class and rich is on an upswing. It would further mean that the premium market, which attracts more investment from foreign players, is on a healthy upward trajectory. Therefore, India could attract more foreign exchange and more premium global products, and the country will continue to remain a bright spot in a volatile global economy.

Emirates arranges Autism Familiarisation Flight and Travel Rehearsal for 30 families

Furthering Dubais commitment to accessible travel and to raise awareness of autism, Emirates invited 30 UAE families with neurodiverse children to have a real check in experience and familiarisation flight on the 24 April, in Terminal 3 Dubai International Airport (DXB). The initiative was designed to help the children practice and alleviate anxieties before travelling, as well as providing a unique opportunity for Emirates to collaborate with key partners, and garner insights for improving accessible travel. Emirates hosted Her Excellency Hessa BuHumaid, Director General of the Community Development Authority of Dubai, as well as 30 neurodiverse children aged between 8 and 12 years old from Dubai Autism Centre, Safe Centre for Autism, Rashid Centre for People of Determination and the New England Centre Children Clinic to attend the flight, including their caregivers. Emirates also invited a neurodiverse child with Angelman Syndrome to join the experience, a condition which can cause delayed development, problems with speech and balance, intellectual disability and seizures. The group were joined by Adil Al Ghaith SVP Emirates Commercial Operations in the Gulf, Middle East & Central Asia, and Mostafa Karam SVP Emirates Customer Affairs & Service Audit. The group used the Autism Friendly Route through Dubai International Airport which includes access to priority lanes for check-in, passport control, security and boarding. Specially trained Emirates check in staff and cabin crew were on hand to support throughout the journey. EK2605 departed DXB at 11:20am and landed again at 12:20pm, giving children a real-life experience of a flight including inflight service, announcements from the cabin crew and Captain, and the sounds and sights of a real take-off and landing. According to a study by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES ) only 13% of families with neurodiverse children surveyed take family vacations because they cite the experience of the airport and flight as too stressful and triggering for the childrens sensory sensitivities. However, 93% of families surveyed said they would take more trips if there were more autism-certified options available and support in place. The aim of the Emirates travel rehearsal initiative is to help customers with autism and sensory disorders and their families to prepare for travel, through a guided tour of the airport and aircraft cabin environment, as well as providing comprehensive training and understanding of neurodiversity to all Emirates team members. More Emirates initiatives are planned in the future, with a view to supporting neurodiverse needs and Dubais commitment to People of Determination. At the event, members of IBCCES were tasked to provide insights and notes on the inflight experience for neurodiverse customers. Emirates and IBCCES are working together to develop an official Autism-friendly inflight certification, which could be eventually used by other airlines. This certification will complement Emirates recent achievements, where all Dubai Check In facilities Emirates City Check-In & Travel Store in DIFC, Emirates Cruise Check In Port Rashid, Emirates Cruise Check In Dubai Harbour and Emirates City Check-In Ajman and Emirates dedicated hub in Terminal 3 DXB were awarded the Certified Autism Center Designation. This also builds on the recent recognition of Dubai International Airport as the first international airport to earn the designation from IBCCES, as well as aligning with the Department of Economy and Tourisms vision of becoming the first Certified Autism Destination in the Middle East. By working together Emirates, Dubais Department of Economy and Tourism, and Dubai Airports in collaboration with the General Directorate of Residency and Foreign Affairs, Dubai Police and Dubai Customs, are making travel more inclusive and accessible for all, reflecting Dubais commitment to becoming a leading destination for travellers with diverse needs and aligning with Dubais Social Agenda 33, under the theme Family: The Foundation of Our Nation. Emirates and partners support neurodivergent passengers and People of Determination in many ways: Emirates Employee Training More than 29,000 cabin crew and ground staff globally have completed Emirates Introduction to Autism and Hidden Disabilities training. The online course was first launched in 2022 and covers a range of topics from the UAE National Policy for People of Determination, recognising autism, practical tips on how to assist passengers with hidden disabilities, responding with empathy, and information on the official support systems to help passengers in the airport.

Book with DPNA code for extra support A DPNA is an airline industry code for special service request (SSR) for a passenger with intellectual or developmental disability. The DPNA code can be applied to a booking made in person, via telephone or travel agent and is applied once the hidden disability is declared, so that the passenger will be supported throughout their journey with assistance from trained staff. Study the Autism Friendly Guide to Dubai International Airport Emirates has collaborated with Dubai International Airport on a comprehensive pre-travel planning tool for passengers with hidden disabilities. The Autism Friendly Guide to Dubai International Airport provides a step-by-step explanation and images of every part of the journey through the airport to boarding, and details what services are available. Pre-order meals Some passengers may need a special meal onboard if they have a sensory sensitivity. This can be ordered a minimum of 24 hours in advance on www.Emirates.com or on the Emirates app. There are options to order gluten free meals, bland meals, vegetarian and diabetic meals. For Kids Meals, families who are travelling with an autistic passenger may contact the Emirates local office with their request in advance. Pre plan what to watch on ice via Emirates app Download the Emirates app, and before a flight passengers can spend time planning and pre-selecting their favourite movies, TV shows or music playlists. Once the passenger has boarded, their personally curated playlist can be synced immediately to ice, saving time and enabling them to settle into the flight quicker with the comfort of their familiar content. Arrival to airport Complimentary parking for 2 hours People of Determination receive complimentary parking in all terminals in Dubai International Airport for 2 hours. People of Determination taxis can also be booked via Dubai Taxi on their toll-free number 80088088. Collect the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Lanyard The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is a globally recognised symbol for hidden disabilities. Emirates and Dubai International Airport staff with Sunflower pins are easily identifiable and specially trained to assist travellers with hidden disabilities. Passengers are encouraged to declare their hidden disability to these staff and collect a Sunflower Lanyard to wear, allowing for support throughout the airport journey. The sunflower lanyard can be collected from the information desk in Departures, Terminal 3 and from easily identifiable collection points in Terminals 1 and 2. Autism Friendly Route The Autism Friendly Route through Dubai International Airport ensures that People of Determination journey through the airport with a dedicated route. It includes access to priority lanes for check-in, passport control, security and boarding; and can be availed when wearing the sunflower lanyard. Specially trained staff equipped to support People of Determination will be easily identifiable wearing sunflower pins, allowing for increased visibility, communication and support throughout the airport journey. Priority boarding or board last if preferred People who have declared their hidden disabilities to Emirates staff will be facilitated in boarding the aircraft first if they choose, or last if this more convenient. Emirates Inflight Experience Families with children are seated together Emirates makes every effort to seat families with children together, and passengers who have declared their hidden disability will be seated beside their companion or guardian. Noise cancelling earphones Passengers with an aural sensory need in First and Business Class will have access to noisecancelling headphones to block out ambient cabin sounds. Light Sensitivity If the customer, child or family member informs Emirates cabin crew about a light sensitivity, cabin crew can turn off the passengers individual light, close the window blind after take-off, and explain that the cabin lights will be dimmed as soon as the meal services are completed. Get busy with puzzles in Fly with Me magazine Young children onboard who need a screen break or distraction can request a copy of the Emirates Fly with Me activity pack, with its own pack of non-toxic colouring pencils, featuring kid-friendly world maps, puzzles, drawing tutorials, colouring pages, educational activities about Dubai and protecting the environment. Choose preferred entertainment on ice Passengers enjoying an Emirates flight can pass the time in a world class entertainment library with more than 6,500 channels of on demand entertainment, over 1,900 movies and 1,500 hours of TV, as well as music, podcasts and audiobooks across 40 languages.
