Abstract:

(Thesis: M.A.)<br>In 2000, US Surgeon General David Satcher released a report on the severity of oral health disease in the high risk demographic. His grave report ushered in an era of oral health prevention programs utilizing a combination of education, mouth rinses, fluoride varnishes, dental sealants, and more invasive procedures. Given this wide range of acceptable treatment interventions available, the aim of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of certain treatments both by themselves and in tandem with one another on target high risk school age children.

The objective of this study was to investigate the extent to which vitamin D and K are associated with bone health in pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. We hypothesized that: (1) the prevalence of vitamin D and K deficiencies would be high despite routine vitamin therapy, (2) bone health would be reduced and (3) vitamin K and D status would be associated with bone health.<br>Our results showed poor bone mineral mass in these CF children despite mild disease and good nutritional status.

Abstract:

Emergency department (ED) use for behavioral-health-associated diagnoses has steadily increased in adult and pediatric populations, accounting for 1 out of every 8 ED visits. The increase in pediatric behavioral health ED visits, combined with limited resources for treatment, has created a challenge for EDs faced with extended boarding and constant observation of this population. The generalized behavioral health guidelines used at the practice site have not been adapted for the pediatric population. This project focused on providing age- and developmentally appropriate best practice guideline

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: The global prevalence of childhood obesity is increasing. Overweight children face risks of compromised physical and mental well being, increased incidence of disease processes, and increased risk of adult obesity. Pediatric providers play a unique role in reversing the prevalence of obesity, yet there is little understanding of what practices are utilized to monitor children\'s weight. PROBLEM: Identifying children who are obese or are at risk for becoming obese may rely on evidence based weight monitoring practices. For many providers there may be a gap in knowledge regarding r

Abstract:

Public Health<br>Ph.D.<br>Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease which affects approximately 2.5 million people worldwide, including approximately 7,000 children. The etiology of MS is unclear, although researchers generally agree that both environmental and genetic factors are involved. It is also unclear why some patients may only have one demyelinating event (acquired demyelinating syndrome, or ADS) and others develop chronic demyelinating disease (MS). Recent evidence suggests an association between smoking and multiple sclerosis (MS) in adults. A question

Therefore it is important to maintain a normal set-up for them under all of their routine and disturbed mental and physical conditions.Sickness and hospitals are one thing that affect a child's psychology.

Art is assumed to possess therapeutic benefits of healing for children, as part of patient-focused design in healthcare. Research on adult patients suggests that by infusing art into the healthcare setting, the design may reduce stress that could impede the healing process. Since the psychological and physiological well-being of children in healthcare settings is extremely important in contributing to the healing process, it is vitally important to identify what type of art supports stress reduction.
