Summary: This study examines the use of mental health services among young offenders in Finland. The findings suggest that these individuals have had psychological and behavioral problems since childhood, but their use of mental health services has been rare or short-lived during childhood and adolescence. Therefore, a multi-professional approach, early evidence-based intervention for behavioral symptoms, and screening for learning problems, traumatic experiences, and substance use are necessary to help children at risk of criminal development.

Summary: This paper summarizes changes in slag microchemical composition and hydration products in Portland cement self-compacting concrete after 15 years of exposure in water under laboratory conditions. The results show a connection between slag content and hydration degree, as well as an inverse relationship between the average values of base-forming oxides ratio and slag content in the mixture. These findings provide valuable information for long-term predictions of slag and other additives in cement concrete, as well as for evaluating slag hydration in historical concrete structures.

Summary: The US Hispanic population is large and rapidly growing, with serious healthcare disparities. A significant portion of Hispanic adults with mental illness do not receive treatment. Developing and utilizing a Spanish language stigma assessment tool is urgently needed. The study found that the S-BTMI can be a reliable measure of mental illness stigma, providing insights into stigma, language, culture, acculturation, and treatment-seeking in Latinx communities.

Summary: Medical students in Spain have high rates of depression, anxiety, and psychopathological symptoms. The perception of academic climate is associated with these symptoms, with females, clinical academic year students, and students from public medical schools reporting worse perceptions. Female students also have higher levels of psychopathological symptoms compared to male students.

Summary: The study revealed that students experience uncertainty in relation to health services, with some students reducing uncertainty by actively seeking information and experiences, while others maintain existing uncertainty by ignoring or avoiding information, and some students increase uncertainty by seeking second opinions. Promoting health services year-round and incentivizing patient referrals may help students manage uncertainty and improve their health.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the oral health status of primary school students with autism aged 7-15 years in autism schools in Tehran.

Educational interventions may improve oral self-care in individuals with autism.

Summary: Previous research has established normal limits for children's heart rates based on age. However, children of the same age can have significantly different heart rates depending on their weight, height, and body size. Our study aimed to create Z scores for heart rate based on various body size factors and compare them to the normal age-related heart rate limits.
