Transition to Adulthood in Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome (TS) occurs in approximately 1:2000 – 1:2500 live-born female infants. The diagnosis is based on a total or partial absence of an X chromosome. Besides the characteristic phenotype, TS is associated with multiple conditions. Leading symptoms in this syndrome are short stature and ovarian dysgenesis leading to infertility in most cases. Particular attention should be paid to congenital heart defects, which affect approximately 20–50% of girls and women with TS and are directly related to an increased mortality in this patient group. Additionally, there is an increased risk of autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune thyroiditis and coeliac disease. The other disturbances are kidneys abnormalities, recurrent otitis leading to conductive hearing loss, vision problems, and mental health issues.

For example, there are a few networks which have been in operation for over a decade, and provide store-and-forward telemedicine services to doctors in lowand middle-incom...
Public Policy and Media Organizations
Public policy thinking and implementation is both a process of intellectual thought and rationale for governing. This book examines public policy and the influence news media organizations have in the production and implementation of public policy.

It uses the riots that occurred across England in the summer of 2011 as a case-study to focus on how the idea of the ‘Big Society’ was regenerated by government and used as a basis for public policy thinking. Finally, it investigates how media organizations form news representations of pu...
