Asthma Comorbidities: Frequency, Risk Factors, and Associated Burden in Children and Adolescents

2022

Identifying asthma comorbidities in children is fundamental for improving disease management. We aimed to investigate the frequency of allergy-related comorbidities in children and adolescents with asthma, and to identify associated risk factors and disease burden. Between September 2015 and December 2018, 508 asthmatic patients (5–17 years) were consecutively enrolled. Parents answered a standardized questionnaire on the history of disease and risk factors. Comorbidities were classified based on the involvement of respiratory and/or extra-respiratory districts: asthma only (A, 13%), asthma with respiratory comorbidities (AR, 37%), asthma with extra-respiratory comorbidities (AER, 10%…

2nd and 3rd graders' attitudes towards the English language : attitudes before and after studying English at school

2014

Oppilaat aloittavat Suomessa englannin opiskelun useimmiten 3. luokalla. Englannin kieli on kuitenkin vahvasti läsnä Suomessa esimerkiksi mediassa ja ulkomaalaisten kautta. Monet perheet myös matkustavat ulkomaille. Siksi onkin syytä olettaa, että lapsilla on asenteita englannin kieltä kohtaan jo ennen kuin he aloittavat sen opiskelun koulussa. Asenteilla on suuri merkitys englannin kielen oppimistuloksien kannalta. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tutkia millaisia asenteita lapsilla on englannin kieltä kohtaan 2. luokan keväällä ja kuinka asenteet ovat muuttuneet 3. luokan kevääseen mennessä, kun he ovat opiskelleet englantia suurin piirtein yhden lukuvuoden verran. Tutkimus käsittelee my…

Z Wadowic do nieba. Postać Jana Pawła II w biografiach i biografijkach dla dzieci i młodzieży

2016

Books about John Paul II aimed at the young reader were published even during the Pope's lifetime. However, their number increased rapidly after his canonization in 2014. Authors and publishers of such books presentthe image of Karol Wojtyła as a model of life and humanity based on love, goodness, honesty, and tolerance. This model is close to the Church's teachings and the educational standard that was used across many centuries. A real-life example has a much better chance to appeal to the child, as it shows that it is actually possible to follow said model. The authors attempt to depict the whole life of the Pope from his childhood and youth to his pastorał work, pontificate, and death. …

Physical activity during pregnancy and early childhood from the perspective of gestational diabetes risk and children's body composition

2017

This study investigated the factors associated with self-reported leisure-time physical activity excluding household activities (LTPAexHH) among women at risk for gestational diabetes (GDM), change in self-reported LTPA including household activities (LTPAinHH) from pre-pregnancy to 7-year follow-up as well as the influence of risk for GDM on their children’s physical activity (PA) and body composition. The association between maternal and child PA, and associations of PA with body composition and physical fitness in preschoolers were also studied. A sample of 399 pregnant women at risk for GDM was examined in a cohort study, and 199 mother-child dyads were assessed in cross-sectional and l…

Overview of methods used to evaluate the adequacy of nutrient intakes for individuals and populations

2009

The objective of the present paper is to review the methods of measuring micronutrient intake adequacy for individuals and for populations in order to ascertain best practice. A systematic review was conducted to locate studies on the methodological aspects of measuring nutrient adequacy. The results showed that for individuals, qualitative methods (to find probability of adequacy) and quantitative methods (to find confidence of adequacy) have been proposed for micronutrients where there is enough data to set an average nutrient requirement (ANR). If micronutrients do not have ANR, an adequate intake (AI) is often defined and can be used to assess adequacy, provided the distribution of dail…

Exercise and adequate nutrition can influence the bone growth process. The aim of this paper was to verify if a different pre-exercise meal can change exercise-induced bone resorption in female child artistic gymnasts. Twenty-eight preadolescent female were requited for this study. Training was preceded by high-carbohydrate meal (HCM; 300 kcal, 88% carbohydrates, 9% protein, 3% fat) or high protein meal (HPM; 300 kcal, 55% carbohydrates, 31% protein, 13% fat) ninety minutes before the start of the training session.
