Background. An inner health picture (IPH) includes a person's image of him-or herself as healthy, and knowledge of the methods needed to achieve the behavior necessary to maintain his (her) health. The IPH of a preschooler is formed by his (her) parents, and the high level of physical activity which is needed for supporting his (her) IPH could change a child's capacity to orient in sensory flow.Objectives. The objectives of this study were twofold: 1) to compare the children's IPH with that of their parents, and 2) to study the connection between a child's IPH with his (her) capacity to recognize consistent patterns in the structure of a stream of sensory signals.Design. 82 primary school children and their mothers participated in the study. The study was conducted in two stages. During the first stage, the internal picture of health (IPH) of the children and their parents was evaluated by means of a questionnaire. To describe a child's ability to discern some kind of order in a stream of sensory signals, the models of simple and complex sensorimotor reactions were used.Results. Parents whose children have a well-developed IPH steer their children toward a healthy lifestyle, whereas they themselves do not do what is necessary to maintain their own health. The process of developing an IPH is accompanied by an increase in control during performance of a serial reaction task, which is reflected in a decrease in the number of lapses or missed stimuli. Conclusion. An IPH is an internal mental model that not only predetermines a child's notion of themselves as a healthy person; it also has a psychological basis in the form of a system that strengthens the child's control over his (her) own actions.

“…Penicillin irreversibly changed the structure of morbidity and mortality in children. In the late 19 th century in Russia up to 85 % of infants died in summer from intestinal infections, in the 20 th century the mortality rate in civilized countries rarely exceeded 5-7 % [1]. Weak children, who have various genetic and innate features, have more chances to survive and their number increases every day.…”

The paper discusses the brain mechanisms of autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It is shown that these disorders are associated with different genetic causes that create certain psychophysiological mechanisms. Nevertheless, their diagnosis is interrelated. Moreover, a child is often first diagnosed with ADHD, and then the diagnosis is changed to “autism spectrum disease”. Among the most common causes of the disease is the behavior of retrotransposons. Retrotransposons (also called transposons via intermediate RNA) are genetic elements that can amplify themselves in the genome. These DNA sequences use a “copy and paste” mechanism, whereby they are first transcribed into RNA and then converted back to identical DNA sequences via reverse transcription, and these sequences are then inserted into the genome at target sites. In humans, retro elements take up 42 % of the DNA. The conclusion is made that for the formation of an individual profile of gene expression in the neuron, the most important is the phenomenon of somatic mosaicism, due to the process of L1 retrotransposition, in addition to the classical described mechanisms of differentiation. The number of such events and their localization is significant as they are likely to contribute to the development of both autism and ADHD.
