Abstract
Introduction Within two-parent households, the parent-couple subsystem (marital or romantic partner relationship) is posited to shape the mental health of both parents and children. Autistic children and their parents have an elevated-risk for mental health problems. The present study longitudinally examined the mediating role of the quality of the parent-couple relationship in time-ordered pathways between changes in the mental health problems of autistic children and in parent depression symptoms at a within-family level. Methodology Using four time points of data collected on 188 families of autistic children (aged 5-12 years) across 3 years, the bidirectional associations between parent-couple relationship satisfaction, parent depressive symptoms, and child internalizing and externalizing mental health problems were investigated. Two multi-group (grouped by parent gender) complete longitudinal mediation models in structural equation modeling using Mplus software were conducted. Results Parent-couple relationship satisfaction mediated: (1) the association between higher parent depressive symptoms and higher child internalizing mental health problems 12 months later for both mothers and fathers, and (2) the association between higher child externalizing mental health problems and higher father depression symptoms 12 months later. Father depression symptoms mediated a pathway from lower parent-couple satisfaction to higher child internalizing mental health problems 12 months later, and mother depression symptoms mediated the pathway from higher child externalizing mental health problems to lower parent-couple satisfaction 12 months later. Conclusion Findings highlight the bidirectional and complex ways that parent and child mental health and the quality of the parent-couple relationship are entwined across time in families of autistic children. Family-wide interventions that address the needs of multiple family members and family systems are best suited to improve the mental health of parents and autistic children.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between child health, parent racial regard, and parent physical health in 87 African American and Black parents/caregivers of children with and without asthma from a low-income, under-resourced urban area. Participants completed the Private and Public Regard subscales of the Multidimensional Inventory of Black Identity (MIBI) and 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12). Parents of children with asthma reported having poorer physical health, while those with higher public and private racial regard reported better physical health. The association between public regard and physical health was surpassed by an interaction of child asthma status and public regard: as public regard decreased, so did physical health, but only for parents raising a child with asthma. Findings suggest that the stresses associated with raising a child with chronic illness and perceiving lower public racial regard may together confer additional risk for poor physical health in African American and Black parents.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many families living in low-income, urban areas experience a number of stressors (e.g., poverty, neighborhood stress, family functioning) that place adolescents at risk for worse asthma outcomes. Adolescents may face additional challenges (e.g., peer pressure, school stress) that add to their overall stress and influence their disease care and health outcomes. The current study examined the impact of a cumulative risk model of stressors including poverty, neighborhood stress, school stress, peer pressure, and caregiver-adolescent conflict on asthma outcomes (e.g., emergency department [ED] visits, asthma control, quality of life [QOL]) among urban adolescents (13-17 years). METHODS Data were collected from 61 urban families of adolescents with asthma (54.1% female; 93.4% African American) in the United States. Caregivers and adolescents completed questionnaires assessing stressors and asthma outcomes separately during a research session. RESULTS Cumulative risk was significantly associated with worse adolescent QOL and asthma control, and more ED visits. The cumulative risk index was also a more robust predictor of QOL and asthma control than any one individual predictor. Poverty, neighborhood stress, and school stress emerged as individual predictors of ED visits. Further, adolescents with well-controlled asthma had significantly lower neighborhood and school-related stress scores. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest that beyond the risk conferred by individual risk factors, an accumulation of stress can have an especially negative impact on asthma outcomes for urban adolescents. Future intervention work aimed at improving asthma outcomes should consider incorporating strategies for minimizing overlapping sources of stress in adolescents' daily lives.

Abstract
The clinical features of a 7-year-old girl who presented with unilateral optic neuritis are presented. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed lesions in the affected optic nerve and the centrum semiovale bilaterally. Biopsy of one of the cerebral lesions was consistent with a diagnosis of Schilder's disease. Visual acuity returned to normal, and the demyelinating MRI lesions improved markedly with corticosteroid treatment. Optic neuritis is a novel mode of presentation in Schilder's disease.

Abstract
Cerebrospinal fluid specimens from patients with tuberculous (17 cases), cryptococcal (15 cases), and viral (14 cases) meningitis were analyzed by frequency-pulsed electron capture gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Compounds that disappeared after therapy were found to be present in each of these specimens and were not detected in controls. They occurred in repetitive patterns such that these three types of meningitis could be rapidly distinguished. The compound associated with tuberculous meningitis has been tentatively identified. These finding have implications for rapid diagnosis, pathophysiological studies, and possible new therapeutic approaches.
