Is the D2 dopamine receptor ( DRD2 ) gene associated with co-morbid depression , anxiety and social dysfunction in untreated veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder?
DRD2 variants are associated with severe co-morbid psychopathology in PTSD subjects.
Extremely obese children have higher, but still insufficient, rates of diagnosis and health education. Nutrition and exercise education are not prevalent throughout all age groups. Providers may be relying inconsistently and insufficiently on visual cues to drive their obesity prevention practices. Furthermore, lower rates of diagnosis and education at non-WCV may result in a missed opportunity to prevent comorbidities. This is of particular concern as overweight children are less likely to be seen at WCV than non-WCV.
