Abstract Human beings are often affected by a wide range of skin diseases, which can be attributed to genetic factors and environmental influences, such as exposure to sunshine with ultraviolet (UV) rays. If left untreated, these diseases can have severe consequences and spread, especially among children. Early detection is crucial to prevent their spread and improve a patient’s chances of recovery. Dermatology, the branch of medicine dealing with skin diseases, faces challenges in accurately diagnosing these conditions due to the difficulty in identifying and distinguishing between different diseases based on their appearance, type of skin, and… More >

Abstract Minimally invasive approaches for cardiac surgery in children have been lagging in comparison to the adult world. A wide range of the most common congenital heart defects in infants and children can be repaired successfully through a variety of non-sternotomy incisions. This has been shown to be associated with superior cosmetic results, shorter hospital stays, and rapid return to full activity compared to sternotomy. These approaches have been around for decades, but they have not been widely adopted for a variety of reasons. Right axillary thoracotomy is one of these approaches that we believe should More >

Abstract Background: Emotional attention refers to the capacity to recognize and properly respond to one’s and others’ emotional states. On another note, family is a primary source of socialization that influences the development of various social skills. In another line, adolescence is a complex stage that has been associated with emotional difficulties that could be related to competences such as prosociability and inclusion. It is inferred that through the family context and the attention that is processed, a series of competencies are transmitted to the youngsters, but this relationship is still unclear. For this reason, the… More >

Abstract School difficulties are common in children cancer survivors and may be prognostic for the success of the patient social reintegration after the disease. Here, we carry out a narrative review of the literature from 2001 to 2022 to assess the school difficulties of these patients, the predictive factors of these difficulties, and the possible long-term consequences. We punctuate this review the practical point-of-view of a teacher dedicated to our hospital, who works with children with chronic diseases such as cancer. Therefore, we expose possible barriers and solutions to improve the scholar reintegration and limit the More >

Abstract In recent years, speculation of an increase in Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) has surfaced with the growing popularity of internet gaming among Chinese children and adolescents. The detrimental impact of IGD on mental health cannot be denied, even though only a small portion of the screen-dependent population exhibits psychopathological and behavioral symptoms. The present study aimed to explore a latent profile analysis (LPA) of Internet Gaming Disorder on the mental health of Chinese school students. The data were collected from a sample of 1005 Chinese school students (49.8% male; age M = 13.32, SD = 1.34… More >

Abstract Childhood maltreatment, as a typical early adverse environment, is known to have a negative impact on one’s life satisfaction. Mindfulness, on the other hand, may serve as a protective factor. This study explored the mediating role of mindfulness and its related variables–positive thoughts, psychological resilience and self-esteem. In order to testify the mechanism, we administered Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) to a non-clinical sample of Chinese university students (N = 1021). The results indicated that positive thoughts More >

Abstract Social anxiety is a common psychological problem among left-behind children (LBC) and has been a popular issue in recent years. Children with higher levels of social anxiety have more emotional and behavioral problems and are prone to negative life events. Although several studies have explored the differences in social anxiety between LBC and non-left-behind children (N-LBC), the findings have not been consistent. In this study, a systematic review and meta-analysis method was used, with 411 papers retrieved on October 01, 2023, from Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, and Chinese databases (CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang) (PROSPERO… More >
