A recent study found that imposter syndrome is present in both medical and nursing students. [nursingtimes.net]
The lack of present research into the underlying mechanisms means we are no closer to doing what we are passionate about as clinicians: to offer pain free, effective treatment to this exceptional cohort of patients. [nature.com]
Moreover, in a relatively short time, 8 of the kids with metabolic syndrome moved on to full-blown Type 2 diabetes The point is, there is no time like the present to begin the process of reversing insulin resistance. [atkins.com]
Entire Body System
- Short Stature
Although there is no universally accepted definition of short stature, many refer to "short stature" as height more than 2 standard deviations below the mean for age and gender (or below the 3rd percentile for age and gender dependent norms). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The overall objective is to explore the mechanisms by which macronutrients regulate food intake and weight gain in Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). [clinicaltrials.gov]
By losing weight or avoiding weight gain, these children can lower their risk of CHD and diabetes. It’s time to take the gloves off in the war against obesity and its close cousin, metabolic syndrome. [atkins.com]
All four participants that completed the diet had weight stabilization or weight loss. In the off-diet period, weight gain velocity was noted to be increased. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
The book refers a lot of Syndrome X as a key cause of weight gain. This is the name first coined in the late 1980's but is now referred to as the Metabolic Syndrome. [foodwatch.com.au]

Patients with Tourette Syndrome commonly have other conditions, like obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Diagnosing and treating these conditions can be as important as treating the tics. [stgeorges.nhs.uk]
