From the author: The purpose of this study was to examine the evidence to determine if there are gender differences in suicidal ideation of adolescents. This study examined the main effect of risk factors from 5 domains and protective factors from 1 domain in relation to suicidal ideation by gender and identified the most important predictors of suicidal ideation for males (N = 654) and females (N = 658). This study was a cross-sectional survey, and data were collected through self-report questionnaires. In the univariate analysis, especially, risk factors from behavioral variables and psychosocial-environmental variables appeared to be gender skewed. For males, all behavioral variables were predictive of suicidal ideation. For the females, unlike the males, Wang-tta or victim of bullying behavior and sexual orientation as behavioral ! variables were predictive of suicidal ideation. For males, parental divorce and parental alcohol abuse as psychosocial-environmental variables were predictive of suicidal ideation. For the females, again unlike for the males, all the psychosocial-environmental variables were not predictive of suicidal ideation. The most important predictors of suicidal ideation for males as a result of the multivariate analysis were history of suicidal attempt, depression, hostility, smoking, parental alcohol abuse, communication with friends, and self esteem. The most important predictors of suicidal ideation for females as a result of the multivariate analysis were depression, hostility, sexual orientation, and self-esteem. These results would indicate that an effective suicide screening and prevention program Jbr adolescents should consider gender differences.

Distributed by Gale, a part of Cengage LearningDietary fructose has been suspected to contribute to development of metabolic syndrome, such as insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypertension. However, underlying mechanisms of the fructose effects are not well characterized. We investigated metabolic outcomes and hepatic expression of key regulatory genes upon fructose feeding under well defined conditions. Rats were fed 63% (w/w) glucose (G) or fructose (F) diet for 4 hours/day for 2 weeks, and were killed after feeding or 24-hour fasting. Liver glycogen was higher in the F-fed rats, indicating robust conversion of fructose to glyc! ogen through gluconeogenesis despite simultaneous induction of! genes f or de novo lipogenesis and increased liver triglycerides. Fructose feeding increased mRNA of previously unidentified genes involved in macronutrient metabolism including fructokinase, aldolase B, phosphofructokinase-1, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP). Activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, a key enzyme for ChREBP activation, remained elevated in both fed and fasted fructose groups. In the fasted liver, the fructose group showed lower non-esterified fatty acids, triglycerides and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein mRNA, suggesting low VLDL synthesis even though plasma VLDL triglycerides were higher. Next, we investigated the mechanism underlying the unique pattern of gene expression by dietary fructose. The hypothesis tested was that the gene induction by dietary fructose is mediated by simultaneous activation of three transcription factors: ChREBP, sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) and F! orkhead box O1 (FoxO1). Again, rats were meal-fed (4h/d) either G or F diet. After 2 wks, animals were killed at the end of the last meal. Nuclear SREBP-1 was higher in F-fed rats than G-fed rats. Nuclear FoxO1 was also elevated with F, but did not reach significance (p=0.08). Surprisingly, no difference was observed in the amount of nuclear ChREBP between F- and G-fed rats. However, ChREBP binding activity was higher in F-fed animals. In conclusion, fructose feeding induced a broader range of genes than previously identified with simultaneous increase in glycogen and triglycerides in liver. SREBP-1 and ChREBP, and possibly FoxO1, likely mediate gene induction by dietary fructose. The study also suggests that further ChREBP activation occurs in the nucleus after nuclear translocation of ChREBP in F-fed rat.Includes: Reflections on Korean Cinema: An Introduction, Immortal 'Realism' in the Modern History of Korean Film Criticism, European Responses to Korean Movies: The Case ! of France, Korean Aesthetics in the Historical Movies of the 1! 960's as Seen in the Films of Shin Sang Ok, Reunifying Identities: A Reflection on Comtemporary Cinema in South Korea, On Korean Cinema: An Interview with Pierre Rissient
