Abstract:

Reading scholar Maryanne Wolf believes that every child needs an array of digital skills in their learning repertoire. Her research focuses on how best to introduce technology in terms of reading acquisition so children can develop deep reading skills over time. Educators must focus on a carefully considered trajectory in order to develop a truly biliterate child who knows what is best for different kinds of reading.

Abstract:

 ‘A foot and a boot’. Narratives about children killed by wolves in Finnish folk tradition and media material    Sofie Strandén-Backa    Keywords: wolf attacks in Finland 1880–1881, children, living tradition, mass and social media   The article focuses on narratives about children and wolves, and the material consists of different texts that deal with children who have been killed by wolves in Finland in earlier times. The particular events in question are a series of well-known and documented wolf attacks on children in the Turku region during 1880 and 1881. Older newspaper articles, as well as contemporary texts, are analysed. One aim of the study is to investigate what is set in motion when the relationship between wolves and children is discussed and which underlying patterns emerge as part of that discussion. Another aim is to allow for narrative elements to create a base for discourse about the dangerous wolf. The analysis covers peoples’ comments on websites where the discourse is both defended and challenged and where negotiations about the prerogatives of the animal are made visible. Ever-returning narratives about the dangerous wolf are part of a legend process, where one goal is to convince the audience of the truth of the stories. One way of doing so, throughout the years, has been to present what could be called ‘the bloody list’, a list that consists of the name and age of the dead children, the circumstances under which they were killed and what was left of their bodies. In the stories, there was no way to protect the children, and there is nothing the parents could have done once the wolf got hold of their child. The message in these stories from the 1880s is that there is no rescue from the wolf. This message is passed down to parents and further to the children of today, creating a child-eating beast of (every) wolf. Another goal is to keep the stories alive for future generations, since the events are viewed as so important that they are not to be forgotten. The stories have a somewhat emblematic character, since they reflect an original myth about the genesis of modern Finland, freed from untamed nature and the chaos of wolves.

Abstract:

Reading educators and clinicians dating from Orton (1928) have asserted that dyslexic children exhibit impairments in one or more aspects of the reading process that are not seen in nondyslexic children. There has been chronic disagreement about the identity and causes of these impairments, but their existence has been generally assumed. We will term this the standard view of dyslexia.

Abstract:

Background. Games are figuratively meaningful in that they are created primarily on the basis of the interplay of strong and weak animals. In this way, the oppression of people who are physically or economically strong is revealed to those who are weak in this respect. Methods. It is based on the ancient beliefs of our people about the wolf and the ancient notion that the wolf is a protector of children. There is also the fact that the image of the wolf is also found in the children's games of non-Turkic peoples. Results. The game of knucklebone attracts attention not only by the history of its origin, but also by the method of its organization and types. It is observed that the types of this game are directly related to the intended purpose.

Abstract:

Abstract Few studies exist of developmental trajectories in children with intellectual disability, and none for those with subtelomeric deletions. We compared developmental trajectories of children with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome to other genetic disorders. We recruited 106 children diagnosed with fragile X, Williams-Beuren syndrome, or Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, assessing their intellectual and adaptive behavior abilities. We retested 61 children 2 years later. We compared Time 1 and Time 2 difference scores related to genetic disorder, age, initial IQ, or adaptive behavior composite. Results show genetic disorder and initial IQ score were significant factors for IQ differences, but only genetic disorder affected adaptive behavior differences. Results suggest different gene-brain-behavior pathways likely exist for these genetic disorders. Different developmental trajectories will influence the type and intensity of intervention implemented by caregivers.

Abstract:

We explored the development of children's ability to relate musical forms to extramusical concepts. In Experiment 1, we presented four excerpts from Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf and asked 4-and 6-yearold children to match each excerpt to a picture of a wolf, bird, cat, or duck (four-alternative forced choice). Children matched appropriate animal pictures to musical excerpts significantly better than chance but identified the wolf and bird more readily than the cat and duck excerpts. In Experiment 2, 3-year-olds participated in a simplified version of the task (two-alternative forced choice). The order of difficulty of matching the various music-animal pairs was comparable across all age groups. In Experiment 3, we replicated Experiment 1 with less familiar music, specifically Saint Saen's Carnival of the Animals. Again, performance was above chance, increasing the likelihood that children's success in Experiments 1 and 2 was not attributable to previous exposure to the music. We discuss the results in relation to theories of musical meaning.

Abstract:

This essay examines an alternative eco-familial reading of Mamoru Hosoda’s manga film, Wolf Children (2012) through an analysis of Japanese extinction anxieties further exacerbated by 3/11. By reading the film through a minor history of the extinction of the Honshu wolf as a metaphor for 3/11, I argue that an examination of the degradation of Japanese preindustrial “stem family” and the fabulative expression of species cooperation and hybridity can more effectively be framed by the popular Japanese imaginary as a lupine apocalypse. In a reading of Deleuze and Guattari on becoming-animal, the omnipresence of lupine loss in the institutions of the home, work, and schools of contemporary Japan, interrogated in many manga, anime, and video game series like Wolf Children, further reveals the ambivalence of post-3/11 artists as they approach family and the State in seeking out more nonhuman depictions of Japan. In this reading of becoming-wolf, Hosoda’s resituates the family/fairy-tale film as a complex critique of the millennial revival of a nuclear Japan in the age of economic and environmental precarity and collapse. I hope to explore the nuances and contradictions of Hosoda’s recapitulation of family through a celebration of Deleuzo-Guattarian pack affects and an introduction of the possibilities of “making kin,” as Donna Haraway explains, at the ends of the Anthropocene.

Abstract:

Children's ability to make moral judgements about an act on the basis of aspects of the act rather than on liking and preconceived ideas about the actor was investigated. 85 children of 4 age groups (preschool, Grades 1, 2, and 3, age range 5–9 years) participated. Act/Actor discrimination was investigated with a test consisting of 8 cartoons. In 4, a rabbit was behaving aggressively against a wolf; the other 4 portrayed identical acts with the wolf as aggressor and the rabbit as victim. Participants made moral evaluations of each cartoon IQ was measured with Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices, and the general level of moral development was measured in accord with Piaget's (1932) criteria. Age, IQ, and general moral development correlated with discriminative ability for Act and Actor. In Piagetian terms, children at the heteronomous level were not capable of such discrimination, while children at the autonomous level (above 7 years of age) in general were.

Abstract:

Extracorporeal piezoelectric lithotripsy is an effective method for treating renal pelvic stones in children. Treatment with the Wolf lithotriptor is essentially painless and can be performed without anesthesia on an outpatient basis. Real-time ultrasound is used to localize stones. In a 1-year period at the University of Utah, extracorporeal piezoelectric lithotripsy was administered to eight children with nine renal units. Of the eight children, aged 5 to 17½ years, only two required sedation and only one received retreatment. No stents were placed. At 1 month posttreatment, all children were stone-free, and no significant complications occurred.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT This essay explores the coincidence of boredom, animalism, and trance states in several late-Victorian and early modernist texts. Through analyses of colonialist novels, mid-Victorian writings on the automaton debate, and case studies of Indian ““wolf children,”” it demonstrates how attempts to escape dehumanizing boredom have paradoxical results, leading to confrontations with other emblems of the bestial and uniting the animal and the automaton, human and machine.

Abstract:

This article deals with the issue of achieving the goals of ecological education in the context of the fable The Wolf Called Ambaras by Tomasz Samojlik and its influence on shaping pro-ecological attitudes of children and adolescents towards wolves. The fable The Wolf Called Ambaras by Tomasz Samojlik is part of the literature trend promoting pro-ecological attitudes within the framework of ecological education. The main educational goal included in the story of the fable treating the adventures of the young wolf is to provide young readers and their parents the knowledge about the wolves’ life as well as public awareness of the need to protect the wolf by shaping positive attitudes of people towards this predator. Helpful in this assumption is taking up the problem of overthrowing negative stereotypes about wolves, on which the form of answers as well as attemption of demythologizing them are individual scenes of the fable. The plot of the analyzed fable attempts to answer the three main allegations of people towards wolves, which often appear in social, political and ecological discourse: the issue of wolves attacks on people, the impact of wolves hunting on forest game population and the public perception of a wolf as a bad animal, one unnecessary in the ecosystem. In addition, the bibliotherapeutic character of the fable was indicated. Through identificaiton with the character of the fable, readers can overcome their own fears related to their weaknesses and complexes based on the desensitization.

Abstract:

The research considers Russian folk tales, the characters of which are a wolf, fox and hare. It is substantiated that in Russian tales, a WOLF, FOX and HARE have representative qualities – they serve as a representative of a person, that is, they are quite definite metaphorical representatives of a person’s behavior strategy, actions and behavior in the family. Images of these animals, widely presented in the folklore and ethnographic context, reflect a typical pattern of behavior in the family, thinking and appreciation of any person with a Russian mentality. It is emphasized that the roots of Russian folklore are deeply and inextricably linked with its basic family values, which in folklore reflect the images of the animal world, presented in a bright and accessible artistic form. Images of a wolf, fox and hare are transmitted over many generations, through folklore texts, introducing both children and adults to the family's basic values and consolidating a strong harmonious national and cultural foundation. It is proved that in Russian folk tales, the relationship between a wolf and a fox is built taking into account the gender factor, which allows to reveal the pattern of behavior in the relationship between a man and a woman.

Abstract:

The weak phonological awareness and slow reaction time in word identification is a disorder that dyslexic people have in reading (Wolf and Bowers, 1999). Therefore, this study will investigate the ability of phonological awareness (phonological awareness), rapid naming (Rapid Naming) and reading ability of people with dyslexia. The subjects consisted of 4 children aged 7-8 years of dyslexia in Pantara Inclusive Elementary School, Jakarta. The four dyslexic children were compared to the control group (20 children from Kwitang 8 PSKD Pancoran Mas, Depok, who had the same age and gender as dyslexic children). The research used quantitative method with case study control design. The study was conducted with three experiments, namely: reading test, counting the number of silabel, and fast-track test. The first experiment consisted of 100 words (simple words, digraphs, diphthongs, and consonant clusters). The second experiment consisted of 48 words (24 words with illustrations and 24 words with trisilabik). All words are from the 10,000 words that have the highest frequency in the Indonesian linguistic corpus (Indonesianwac). The third test is 50 RAN letters (Pennington et al., 2001). Results showed that persons with dyslexia had a lower ability than the control group on all three tests. Dyslexic children tend to perform sound recovery, eliminate phonemes and swap words with nonwords and slow reaction times. Based on the results obtained, 2 dyslexic children data support double deficit hypothesis Wolf and Bowers (1999) because dyslexic children show phonological deficits and rapid naming deficits.

Abstract:

AbstractThe important role of Jewish medical practitioners in medieval and early modern Aschkenas has been underlined time and again. Regardless of legal restrictions and anti-Jewish polemics Jewish physicians were highly appreciated by Christian patients. However, although sources are rather scare, there were also Jewish patients who consulted Christian doctors. Practice records of the Nuremberg physician Johann Christoph Götz (1688–1733) and letters of his contemporary Christoph Jacob Trew (1695–1769) indicate that Jewish children, women and men from nearby Fürth asked for medical advice or treatment. The documents bear witness to a vivid exchange of ideas between Trew and the Jewish physician Wolf Enoch Levin from Fürth in the age of Enligthment. In ambiguous and difficult cases, Wolf often addressed himself to Trew as intermediary for his sick coreligionists.

Abstract:

Neonatal obstructive jaundice is frequently explained by biliary atresia (BA) or the presence of a choledochal cyst (CC). Cystic biliary atresia (CBA) has been a proposed as a subtype of BA with projected improved outcomes. We aimed to characterize these lesions further. We conducted an Institutional Review Board-approved review of all patients treated for obstructive jaundice at our tertiary children's hospital over 10 years. Over the decade we evaluated 91 children with obstructive jaundice: 13 CBA, 52 BA, and 26 CC. Patients with isolated CBA and BA were diagnosed significantly earlier than those with CC (15.9, 54, and 281 days, respectively; P = 0.0001). There was a significant delay between diagnosis and surgical intervention for patients with CBA compared with BA: 17 days versus 5.7 days ( P = 0.004). There was no difference in rate of transplant between CBA and BA (31 vs 50%; P = 0.35). The time from surgery until transplant was 13.9 and 18.6 months for CBA and BA, respectively ( P = 0.62). Although radiographically similar to CC, CBA behaves similarly to isolated BA. Delay in recognition and surgical treatment may affect outcomes and lead to an increased incidence of liver failure. The presence of a cystic biliary malformation in the setting of neonatal jaundice should be regarded as CBA until proven otherwise.

Abstract:

It is an inconvenient truth that the state of the planet is likely to figure powerfully in both the real and the imagined lives of children, in whatever nation state children and young people are situated. Physical space as a literary trope, representing both outer and inner landscapes, has a long tradition in the telling of stories where the child listener/ reader/viewer is often positioned to see nature in terms of binary oppositions. From the survival story â€“ where the island is represented as personally malevolent â€“ to the country garden â€“ where nature is represented as a benign healer; from the wild forest of the folktale â€“ where the wolf-man/rapist roams â€“ to the benevolent beach where children play innocently, children â€˜readâ€™ contradictory ideas about the natural world in the word. This article unlocks some of these binary oppositions in childrenâ€™s literature through an examination of a range of South African and New Zealand picture books, seeking to reveal how various ideologies are inscribed in the visual and verbal space of the picture book. The article asserts that, in the context of globalisation, teachers must be awakened to the opportunity of including eco-criticism in a critical literacy curriculum, developing thus an emancipatory politic.

Abstract:

Weinraub and Wolf investigated maternal and preschool child functioning in households headed by solo mothers. Solo mothers—nonadolescent women raising children from birth without a male partner—differed from demographically matched, married counterparts with regard to stress and social supports, yet no differences in child outcomes were observed. Twenty-eight families (70%) from that original sample were reassessed as children entered preadolescence. Child measures included maternal and teacher report of behavior problems, social competence, and academic performance. Maternal measures included parenting, social supports, and stress. According to teachers, preadolescent children of solo mothers had more behavior problems, lower social competence, and poorer school performance than children of married mothers. Solo mothers continued to be less satisfied with emotional supports and reported higher stress. Maternal stress moderated family status effects on child outcome. Longitudinal analyses revealed stability over time for maternal and child variables, with greater vulnerability for children of solo mothers.

Abstract:

Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome (WHS) is a rare genetic disease caused by deletion in the short arm of chromosome 4. It is characterized by typical fascial features and a varying degree of intellectual disabilities and multiple systemic involvement. Epidemiological studies confirmed the association of acute pancreatitis with the development of diabetes. However, this association has not been reported in WHS. We report an 18-year-old girl with WHS who presented acutely with nonketotic Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Status (HHS) in association with severe acute pancreatitis. Her presentation was preceded by febrile illness with preauricular abscess. She was treated with fluids and insulin infusion and remained on insulin 18 months after presentation. Her parents are cousins and the mother was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. She had negative autoantibodies and no signs of insulin resistance and her monogenic diabetes genetic testing was negative. Microarray study using WHS probe confirmed deletion of 4p chromosome. Acute pancreatitis is uncommon in children and development of diabetes following pancreatitis has not been reported in WHS. HHS is considerably less frequent than diabetes ketoacidosis in children. We highlight the complex presentation with HHS and acute pancreatitis leading to diabetes that required long term of insulin treatment.

No spectacle in Soviet cities more troubled Russian and foreign observers during the 1920s than the millions of orphaned and abandoned children known as besprizornye. Whether portrayed as pitiable victims or as devious wolf-children preying on the surrounding population, they haunted the works of journalists, travelers and Communist Party members alike. “Every visitor sees it first,” a foreigner noted, “and is so shocked by the sight that the most widely known Russian youth are the … homeless children flapping along the main streets of cities and the main routes of travel like ragged flocks of animated scarecrows.” By 1922 the number of waifs reached the neighborhood of seven million, inundating cities and alarming officials that the country might soon amass enough inveterate delinquents to disrupt the socialist transformation of society.

Isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy resulting from an arrest in normal endomyocardial embryogenesis. The diagnosis can be made echocardiographically, and the entity may be associated with problems of cardiac rhythm. We describe two illustrative cases, with Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome in one, and left bundle branch block in the other. We emphasize that children with problems of rhythm and findings suggestive for left ventricular cardiomyopathy, either hypertrophic or dilated; should be investigated to exclude isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium.

Abstract:

Introduction The earliest gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopies were performed in the late 1880s by using rigid instruments to examine the esophagus and rectum. The semiflexible gastroscope was developed in the early 1930s by Schindler and Wolf, and fiberoptic endoscopes were popularized in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The first small-diameter instrument used for esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) in a child was a fiberoptic bronchoscope. Video endoscopy has only developed over the past 2 decades, with the first mass-produced video instruments introduced in the 1980s. Parts or all of the procedure can be recorded for later review. Pediatric GI endoscopists can perform most of the endoscopic techniques of their adult counterparts. The referring physician and endoscopist should be familiar with the risks and benefits of endoscopy as well as clinical situations in which it is most useful. Personnel Specially trained pediatric endoscopy assistants are an important component of the endoscopy team. Preprocedure anxiety may be reduced by a physician, nurse, or play therapist explaining the procedure to the patient. One assistant can hold and reassure the child throughout the procedure while a second can help to obtain and process tissue and assist with other equipment and patient monitoring. Physicians performing GI endoscopy on infants and children should have completed a pediatric gastroenterology fellowship or have experience with pediatric gastrointestinal diseases and adequate training in pediatric endoscopy.

Abstract:

Background: Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a rare disease caused by deletion in the distal moiety of the short arm of chromosome 4. The objectives of this study were to report the most representative oral findings of WHS, relate them with other clinical characteristics of the disease, and establish possible phenotype-genotype correlation. Methods: The study was conducted at 6 reference centers distributed throughout Spain during 2018–2019. The study group consisted of 31 patients with WHS who underwent a standardized oral examination. Due to behavioral reasons, imaging studies were performed on only 11 of the children 6 years of age or older. All participants had previously undergone a specific medical examination for WHS, during which anatomical, functional, epilepsy-related, and genetic variables were recorded. Results: The most prevalent oral manifestations were delayed tooth eruption (74.1%), bruxism (64.5%), dental agenesis (63.6%), micrognathia (60.0%), oligodontia (45.5%), and downturned corners of the mouth (32.3%). We detected strong correlation between psychomotor delay and oligodontia (p = 0.008; Cramér’s V coefficient, 0.75). The size of the deletion was correlated in a statistically significant manner with the presence of oligodontia (p = 0.009; point-biserial correlation coefficient, 0.75). Conclusion: Certain oral manifestations prevalent in WHS can form part of the syndrome’s phenotypic variability. A number of the characteristics of WHS, such as psychomotor delay and epilepsy, are correlated with oral findings such as oligodontia and bruxism. Although most genotype-phenotype correlations are currently unknown, most of them seem to be associated with larger deletions, suggesting that some oral-facial candidate genes might be outside the critical WHS region, indicating that WHS is a contiguous gene syndrome.

Abstract:

We give a simple, direct proof of the ‘mother’ protocol of quantum information theory. In this new formulation, it is easy to see that the mother, or rather her generalization to the fully quantum Slepian–Wolf protocol, simultaneously accomplishes two goals: quantum communication-assisted entanglement distillation and state transfer from the sender to the receiver. As a result, in addition to her other ‘children’, the mother protocol generates the state-merging primitive of Horodecki, Oppenheim and Winter, a fully quantum reverse Shannon theorem, and a new class of distributed compression protocols for correlated quantum sources which are optimal for sources described by separable density operators. Moreover, the mother protocol described here is easily transformed into the so-called ‘father’ protocol whose children provide the quantum capacity and the entanglement-assisted capacity of a quantum channel, demonstrating that the division of single-sender/single-receiver protocols into two families was unnecessary: all protocols in the family are children of the mother.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Antibiotic prophylaxis decreases rates of febrile neutropenia and systemic infection in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, it is unknown whether prophylaxis prevents or ameliorates the severity of specific types of infections like upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) or lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI). Methods This is a retrospective, observational convenience cohort study of children with newly-diagnosed ALL, comparing respiratory tract infections (RTI) in participants receiving no antibiotic prophylaxis, levofloxacin prophylaxis, or non-levofloxacin prophylaxis. Information regarding the presence of URTI or LRTI, identified respiratory viruses, hospitalization, oxygen supplementation, and ICU admission was collected through medical record review. The proportion of participants in each group was estimated and compared between groups using Fisher’s exact test and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Results Of 262 evaluable participants, 126 received no antibiotic prophylaxis, 59 received levofloxacin prophylaxis, and 77 received non-levofloxacin prophylaxis, with a total of 136 children getting any antibiotic prophylaxis regimen. In the no-prophylaxis group, 22/126 (17.4%) had RTI, compared to 23/136 (16.9%) in the prophylaxis group. There was no significant difference in the numbers of LRTI and URTI, with or without an identified respiratory virus, regardless of the presence or type of antibiotic prophylaxis. Participants receiving prophylaxis did not have a significantly different risk of hospitalization, oxygen supplementation, or ICU admission. Participant Characteristics Comparisons of levofloxacin prophylaxis, other prophylaxis, any prophylaxis, and no prophylaxis Conclusion There was no observed difference in RTI, hospitalization, oxygen supplementation, or ICU admission for RTI between participants receiving or not receiving antibiotic prophylaxis in this cohort. Because of the relatively low number and severity of respiratory infections, and the high proportion that are viral in etiology, it would likely take a very large sample size to determine the impact of antibacterial prophylaxis on respiratory infections during induction therapy for pediatric ALL.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Infection and sepsis are important contributors to mortality in children with cancer. Although pediatric risk prediction scores have improved identification of children at high risk of death in the PICU, the value of these tests in immunocompromised children is unknown. Methods In this IRB-approved retrospective study performed at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, we evaluated the performance of 4 pediatric risk scores, the Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM), Pediatric Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (pSOFA), Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) scores (using data available at 1, 6, 12 and 24 hours) and the Paediatric Index of Mortality 3 (PIM-3) score (at 1 hour), to predict attributable mortality (death ≤ 60 days without organ dysfunction recovery). Inclusion criteria: Age &lt; 24 years, active cancer therapy (other than bone marrow transplantation), and admission to PICU between 2013 and 2019 with suspected infection (collection of a blood culture and initiation of antibiotic therapy). Scores were calculated using the worst value obtained for each variable. Score distributions were compared by the Mann-Whitney U test, and optimal cutoffs selected by maximizing Youden’s index. An unadjusted p-value &lt; 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Of 202 episodes of PICU admission for suspected infection in 168 participants, there were 12 attributable (6%) and 4 unrelated (2%) deaths. Demographic and cancer-related characteristics were not associated with mortality (Table 1). Of the 4 prediction scores, only the PRISM score at 24 hours was associated with mortality (P = 0.012; Table 2). For PRISM score ≥ 18, sensitivity was 58.3%, specificity was 81.6%, positive predictive value was 16.7%, and negative predictive value was 96.9% for attributable mortality. Table 1. Risk factors for attributable mortality in pediatric patients with cancer admitted to the intensive care unit with suspected infection. Table 2. Association between risk prediction scores and attributable mortality in pediatric patients with cancer admitted to the intensive care unit with suspected infection. Conclusion In children with cancer admitted to PICU with suspected infection, early pediatric risk prediction scores did not predict mortality. The PRISM score calculated at 24 hours did predict mortality but was relatively insensitive. Further research is needed to develop a risk score for immunocompromised children and to validate the 24 hour PRISM score in this population. Disclosures Joshua Wolf, MBBS, PhD, FRACP, Karius Inc.

Abstract:

Street children have a negative impact on the stigma of child growth. Street children depend their lives on the streets because of economic, social or even family conditions that do not support their development. After the natural disaster, 28 September 2018 was the point where areas were affected, especially in the areas of Palu, Sigi and Donggala (Pasigala). The phenomenon that occurs when a disaster occurs, robs them of their finances, such as their homes and their livelihoods. The increasing number of street children will certainly affect the number of crimes committed considering the harshness of street life and the bad friendship environment can make a child who has never been faced with the law becomes a child who is dealing with the law. So in this case it is necessary to protect the law for street children. So that the main problem in this research is what are the factors that dominate a child being a street child in the Post-Natural Disaster Post Wolf Area, and how is the Model for Handling Street Children Post-Natural Disasters through an Innovation System Based on Family Empowerment. The results of this study indicate that legal protection for street children after natural disasters qualifies with the adoption of the family empowerment model by presenting the Tina Nu Ngata model.

Abstract:

Despite the wealth of material related to China in Victorian and Edwardian children’s literature, relatively few scholarly works have been published on the subject. Critics who have discussed the topic have tended to emphasize the negative discourse and stereotypical images of the Chinese in late nineteenth-century children’s literature. I use the case of William Dalton’s The Wolf Boy of China (1857), one of the earliest full-length Victorian children’s novels set in China, to complicate previous generalizations about negative representations of China and the Chinese and to highlight the unpredictable nature of child readers’ reactions to a text. First, in order to trace the complicated process of how information about the country was disseminated, edited, framed, and translated before reaching Victorian and Edwardian readers, I analyse how Dalton wove fragments from his reading of a large archive of texts on China into his novel. Although Dalton may have preserved and transmitted some ‘factual’ information about China from his sources, he also transformed material that he read in innovative ways. These are reflected in the more subversive and radical parts of the novel, which are discussed in the second part of the essay. In the final section, I provide examples of historical readers of The Wolf Boy of China to challenge the notion that children passively accept the imperialist messages in books of empire.

Abstract:

Introduction: Post-prandial hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (PPHH) is a recognized complication of various gastric surgeries in children, but rarely reported after oesophageal atresia repair. We report 2 children diagnosed with PPHH after oesophageal surgery and the challenges of their management. Case 1: A 2-year-old boy diagnosed with oesophageal atresia at birth was surgically repaired requiring 6 oesophageal dilatations in the first year of life. At 11 months of age, he manifested hypoglycaemic seizures and investigations confirmed PPHH. Acarbose and diazoxide trials failed. He was managed with 17-h continuous gastrostomy feeds. Currently, he is 28 months old with euglycaemia on daytime bolus gastrostomy feeds and overnight 12-h continuous gastrostomy feeds. Case 2: A 6-month-old girl diagnosed with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome and tracheo-oesophageal fistula was surgically repaired, requiring monthly oesophageal dilatations. At 5 months of age, she was reported to have hypoglycaemia and PPHH was confirmed. She responded to diazoxide and continuous nasogastric tube feeds, but developed pulmonary hypertension possibly diazoxide-induced. Subsequently, diazoxide was stopped and normoglycaemia was secured via 20-h continuous gastrostomy feeds. Conclusion: PPHH may be an underdiagnosed complication in children undergoing surgery for oesophageal atresia. These children must be monitored closely for symptoms of hypoglycaemia and if there are concerns must be screened for possible PPHH. Our cases demonstrate that continuous feeding regimens might be the only therapeutic option, until PPHH gradually lessens in intensity over time.

Abstract:

Abstract Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4. The clinical picture includes growth retardation, severe mental retardation, characteristic “Greek helmet” like face, seizures and midline defects in the brain, heart, palate and genitalia. Recently-used molecular techniques increase the number of diagnosed cases due to the detection of smaller deletions. The severity of the clinical presentation is variable depending on the haploinsufficiency of genes in a deleted region. We present six children with WHS with variable clinical appearance. The assessment of several elements (facial dysmorphism, mental retardation, additional congenital anomalies) provided classification into minor, mild or severe forms. Three of the children had a visible cytogenetic deletion on chromosome 4p, two had microdeletions detected with fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), and one child with a less characteristic clinical picture had a mosaic type of the deletion. Correlation between the clinical presentation and the length of the deleted region was confirmed.

Abstract:

Young children will inherit the biosphere; therefore, it is crucial that they recognize the importance of all living organisms based on their intrinsic value and ecosystem function, not only on their “cuteness”. However, children’s knowledge about the interdependence among organisms has been little investigated. We interviewed 56 kindergarten children (5–6 years old) in Norway. The aim of the study was to investigate their perception of the importance for nature of six organisms, representing different trophic levels of food webs (producers, consumers, decomposers) and providing different ecosystem services (production, decomposition, and pollination). There was no difference in ranking between sexes or between ordinary and farm-based kindergartens. Bumblebees and earthworms were perceived as the most important organisms, followed by squirrel, trees, and wolf. None of the children recognized the ecological role of mushrooms. Our results show that, although upon completing kindergarten many children had gained an early understanding of the role of different organisms in nature, they missed the importance of plants and fungi. Kindergarten children’s “fungi blindness” might reflect a neglect of the public for this extremely important, diverse, and dominating taxon. We should therefore put more emphasis in raising awareness about the interdependence among trophic levels in food webs.

Abstract:

At some time in the 1320s, the Sienese master Simone Martini painted an altar-piece celebrating the Hermit friar Agostino Novello. Agostino, who had died at the convent of San Leonardo al Lago, near Siena, in 1309, is shown surrounded by illustrations of four of his posthumous miracles (see plates 1 and 2, pp. 198 and 200, below). Of these, three were performed on behalf of children. The exception, at upper right, shows the deliverance of a knight who, riding in a desolate mountainous landscape, has fallen beneath his horse. Top left, we see the rescue of a child from mauling by what is presumably a wolf. Below, a child falls into the street from a wooden balcony when one of its slats gives way; not only does he suffer no injury from the fall, but Agostino seizes the falling slat in mid-air and prevents it from hurting him. Bottom right, an infant suffers head injuries when he falls from his cradle, but his aunt kneels to make a vow to Agostino, and in the lower register we see the fulfilment of the vow: robed as a little Augustinian friar and carrying a taper, the child is carried by his nurse to give thanks, followed by his mother and his aunt, who carries another taper.

Abstract:

This article compares the TV and cinematic versions of the Chinese 3D animation Boonie Bears in terms of their representations of media violence within the context of social concern, government regulation, and industry self-regulation. These works are particularly significant among domestically produced animation with respect to their effects on children of exposure to violent programming. The first part of this article examines physical violence and verbal abuse in Boonie Bears and Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, the two most influential and widely watched animated TV series in China. The second part reviews the corresponding public criticism the above two works have received and the reasons behind it. The third part of this article analyzes how and to what extent the production company has reduced the degree of children’s exposure to media violence in cinematic Boonie Bears productions (especially the first two films), which have been deemed acceptable by the majority of potential audience members.
