Aim: to assess the landscape of pneumococcus serotypes among children organized in kindergarten groups in Khanty-Mansiysk city. Patients and Methods: the study included 510 children (2-6 years old) attending kindergartens in Khanty-Mansiysk city. The children were divided into 2 groups: vaccinated (n=50) and non-vaccinated against pneumococcal infection (n=460). The data on vaccination status were received from the prophylactic immunization records (Form 063/u) and child's medical records (Form 112/u). In addition, the following data were analysed: age, gender, gestation age at birth, attitudes of child's legal representatives towards vaccinations, and the presence of chronic health problems. Pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate adsorbed 13-valent vaccine (PCV-13) was used for the prevention of pneumococcal disease. Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from children as a source of biological material. The pneumococcus was detected using a culture-based method and PCR assay. Results: the average age of organized children examined in Khanty-Mansiysk for Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae, pneumococcus) was 54.31 [53.46–55.16] months. In 56% of the examined children, pneumococcal DNA was found in nasopharyngeal swabs by polymerase chain reaction assay. The identified serotypes in 71.1% of cases were the same as in the PCV13 vaccine formulation. The most common serotypes detected were 4 (27%), 19 F (13.3%), 23 F (3.6%) and serogroup 6 (11.6%). In children immunized against S. рneumoniae, the pneumococcal strain DNAs, same as the vaccine strain DNAs, were found in 53.7% of cases, while in non-immunized children — in 73% of cases (OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.29–0.97). Conclusion: the increasing prevalence of S. рneumoniae carriage in children as they get older and attend organized children's groups for a longer time, along with the predominance within the population of the same pneumococcus strains as those in the vaccine formulation, dictate the need for timely immunization against pneumococcal infection in compliance with the National Vaccination Schedule (vaccination at 2 and 4.5 months of age, revaccination at 15 months of age). KEYWORDS: children, pneumococcal infection, S. pneumoniae, vaccination, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, children in organized groups, carriage.

Children who suffer from brain disorders, either disorders due to medical factors or disorders due to abnormalities in brain function also pass through the language acquisition stage. KY is a teenager who has a language disorder and is declared mentally retarded. Children with mental retardation acquire language skills in essentially the same way as non- mentally retarded children. Their rate of acquiring language skills was lower than that of non-mindset children of the same mental age. In the case of Kartini, Kartini was able to pronounce the sounds [a], [c], [d], [e], [g], [h], [i], [j], [k], [l], [s], [t], [u], and [y]. There are some consonants that cannot be pronounced if the consonants are at the beginning, in the middle and at the end. For vocals [u] Kartini can pronounce it but it is not perfect. The tongue is located between the oral cavity under the palate. For consonant [i] Kartini sometimes changes it to vowel [e]. Consonants [b], [d], [m],[t] are sometimes missing. For the consonant [n] which is located at the end of the word, Kartini changes it to the sound [ŋ]. However, for the consonant [n] which is located in the middle of the word Kartini omitted it. For consonant [s] Kartini undergoes obliteration and replacement. Consonant [s] changes to consonant [c] , Consonant [s] at the end of the word changes to consonant [t].

Najčešće su maligne bolesti u dječjoj dobi leukemije, limfomi i tumori središnjeg živčanog sustava. Incidencija malignih bolesti kod djece i adolescenata iznosi 1 % i ima tendenciju rasta. Maligne se bolesti mogu manifestirati putem širokog spektra simptoma. Često se javljaju bol, depresija, anksioznost, kronični umor, ali i brojne nuspojave liječenja poput mučnina, povraćanja, alopecije, malaksalosti i/ili nesanice. Bol se može javiti zbog same patofiziologije malignih bolesti i zbog brojnih bolnih dijagnostičkih i terapijskih procedura, a povećava je neizvjesnost prognoze bolesti i strah od smrti. Sve zajedno narušava kvalitetu života djece, adolescenata i njihovih obitelji, te možemo govoriti o totalnoj boli. Depresija i anksioznost mogu, osim narušavanja kvalitete života, negativno utjecati na rezultate liječenja. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da je razina depresije i anksioznosti povećana na početku bolesti i smanjuje se do prve godine liječenja, no ne vraća se do razine prije oboljenja. Ukoliko nedostaje socijalna podrška, utoliko se može razviti i posttraumatski sindrom. Prevalencija kroničnog umora kod djece i adolescenata kreće se od 30 % pa do više od 90 % oboljelih. Osim same bolesti i terapijskih postupaka, čest uzrok kroničnog umora jest stres zbog izostanaka s nastave, gubitka prijatelja, pojave komplikacija, neizvjesnosti oko ishoda intervencija i liječenja, proceduralne boli i socijalne izolacije. U zbrinjavanju svih ovih simptoma pozitivne rezultate pokazuje upotreba distraktora. Širokom upotrebom računalnih tehnologija kao distraktor, ali i kao alat za edukaciju djece i adolescenata u pripremi za zahvate i intervencije, počinju se koristiti videoigre. Najčešće se koriste videoigre virtualne stvarnosti koje su interaktivna i multisenzorna aktivnost koja zahtijeva uronjenost u zabavne sadržaje te na taj način smanjuje okupiranost simptomima bolesti. Osim u dječjoj onkologiji, upotreba videoigara pokazala je dobre rezultate u liječenju i rehabilitaciji bolesnika oboljelih od neuroloških, mišićno-koštanih, psihijatrijskih, ali i brojnih drugih skupina bolesti.

The aim of this study was to compare the vocabulary of boys with behavioral disorders (N = 34; age range: 10-13 years) and boys from the general population (N = 34; age range: 10-13 years), as well as examine the relationship between vocabulary and aggressive behavior and problems in their relationships with peers. Parents and caregivers assessed the child’s aggressive behavior and problems in relationships with peers, while data on the child’s vocabulary, cognitive abilities, and executive functions (working memory) were collected using a standardized intelligence test. By comparing the two groups, boys with behavioral disorders had a significantly poorer vocabulary than boys of the same age in the general population, and this difference could not be explained by the child’s cognitive abilities, or executive functions. In addition, poor vocabulary was significantly associated with peer relationship problems, as well as reactive, but not proactive, aggressive behavior. The findings have particular implications in the areas of early intervention for high-risk boys, as well as communication with children in the social welfare and justice systems.

SummaryBlood clotting activation and fibrin deposition are common findings in lymphoma patients. We evaluated the capacity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to produce procoagulant activity (PCA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) in 12 children with newly diagnosed lymphoma (8 non-Hodgkin’s, 4 Hodgkin’s) and in 12 matched healthy donors. In the same subjects we also measured plasma antigen levels of tissue-type PA (t-PA), urokinase-type PA (u-PA), PAI-1, PAI-2, and D-dimer. PCA generated by mononuclear cells after incubation for 20 h at 37° C was significantly higher in patients than in controls (p = 0.027). In all samples it was identified as tissue factor by functional criteria (dependence on factor VII). Moreover, culture medium obtained from patients’ mononuclear cells after incubation for 20 h at 37° C contained significantly higher amounts of PAI activity and PAI-2 antigen than control samples (p <0.001). Plasma PAI-1 and t-PA antigens were significantly augmented in patients (p <0.005), the mean increase of PAI-I being about 5 times higher than that of t-PA. Plasma levels of D-dimer wete markedly increased in the patients’ group (p <0.001), whereas u-PA and PAI-2 antigens did not differ from controls. It is suggested that monocytes from lymphoma patients are endowed with functional abnormalities leading to the simultaneous expression of tissue factor and antifibrinolytic activity. These abnormalities, coupled with a reduced plasma fibrinolytic potential, could play an important pathogenetic role in blood clotting activation and fibrin deposition associated with lymphoma.

This study compared the physical fitness level and weight status of children and adolescents in China and Japan. Children and adolescents aged 7–18 years were recruited (China: n = 5660; Japan: n = 5660). Physical fitness was assessed using seven core items—grip strength, 30-s sit-ups, standing long jump, sit-and-reach, 20-s repeated straddling, 20-m shuttle run test, and 50-m dash. A physical fitness index (PFI) was calculated by adding all items’ Z-scores. We conducted comparisons of PFI and its distribution, each physical fitness item, and weight status for individuals from China and Japan across all ages. The PFI was lower in China than in Japan for all age groups, with an especially large difference at age 18 years for boys (a difference of 9.05) and girls (a difference of 9.10) (p < 0.001). The same result was seen for the seven items. The PFI distribution for children and adolescents was more disperse among those in Japan than among those in China. Obesity prevalence was 2.84 times higher in China than in Japan. An inverted U-shaped relationship was observed between physical fitness and nutritional status. Children and adolescents showed markedly lower physical fitness and higher obesity prevalence in China than in Japan.

Introduction: One of the very important indicators used in the treatment of postural defects is the relative symmetry of the lower limbs. The selection of a safe and effective therapeutic tool is not an easy task and is particularly important in children. The authors of the experiment have decided to check the effectiveness of two manual techniques, that minimally interfere with patient's tissues. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of selected manual procedures: the Ackerman's second phenomenon and mobilization of the sacroiliac joint to hyperextension (Kowtun's grip) on the relative length of the lower limbs in a school-age children. Materials and methods: 70 children aged 8-12 participated in the study. All of them were diagnosed with postural abnormalities: spine defects in the sagittal plane, three-dimensional asymmetry of the torso, knee and / or foot defects and asymmetry of the length of the lower limbs. Qualification of children for a particular group with a postural defects was based on the concept of Sastre Fernandez. In each patient, the manual procedure in order to compensate the leg length, was applied once. In 28 children the applied procedure was the Ackerman's second phenomenon and in 42 it was the Kowtun's grip. The relative length of t h e l o w e r l i m b s w a s m e a s u r e d immediately before and after the manual procedure. Results: The executed experiment indicates the effectiveness of the Ackerman's second phenomenon in compensating the asymmetry of the length of the lower limbs in children with posture defects. The effect of Kovtun's mobilization is less clear. Conclusions: Manual procedure change the relative length of the lower limbs in children with postural defects. The Ackerman's second phenomenon in an effective and yet gentle and safe manual tool that can be used in children in order to compensate the relative length of the lower limbs. The effect of the Kowtun's treatment requires further research.

<p>The work is aims to study the features of empathic potential in children with mental retardation. The materials of empirical research obtained from a sample of preschool children are presented. The study involved respondents aged 5 to 6 years (N=32; M=5.19; SD=0.37) with an average level of intelligence. Pictures from the children's educational game “ABC of Emotions” (N.L. Belopolskaya), the drawing technique “Draw yourself”, the technique “Plot pictures” (R.R. Kalinina), the technique “Unfinished stories” (T.P. Gavrilova) and the Wexler’s test (children's version) were used. Mathematical processing methods include: χ2 (chi-squared) Pearson, Mann-Whitney U-test, cluster regression analysis. The results obtained make it possible to say that children with mental retardation do not differ from children without this status in terms of emotional awareness, the nature of emotional response and the moral component of empathic potential in general. At the same time, children with mental retardation find it difficult to choose the nature of their emotional response. This is a fact that can be used as a marker to determine the status of mental retardation. The results can be used in developing psychocorrection programs.</p>

Background and Purpose: Current evidence shows that physical fitness (PF) is declining among children and adolescents in Africa and worldwide, and this trend is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the baseline PF data of primary school children in Lagos State, Nigeria, and to determine the predictors of low PF within the cohort. Materials and Methods: A total of 733 primary school children aged 6-12 years in Lagos, Nigeria, were included in this cross-sectional quantitative study. PF measures were assessed using the Eurofit battery test including sit and reach (S&R), standing long jump (SLJ), sit-ups (SU), 5 m shuttle run test (5 m-SRT), and cricket ball throw (CBT). A structured questionnaire was used to determine the socio-demographic factors. Anthropometric and cardiovascular measurements were performed using standardized protocols. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequencies, percentages, median, and quartiles, and inferential statistics of the Mann- Whitney U test, Quade analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) correlation matrix, and multiple linear regression model. Results: Boys showed significantly higher SU counts (P<0.001), higher CBT (P<0.001), lower 5 m SRT (P=0.003), and the same SLJ (P=0.008) than girls, while S&R scores were statistically comparable (P=0.135). Also, the results showed that sex (B=-0.647, P=0.015), height (B=0.831, P=0.0001), weight (B=-0.641, P=0.007), and hip circumference (HC) (B=0.955, P=0.009) were significantly associated with total PF (measured using S&R, SLJ, SU,5 m SRT, and CBT). Conclusion: Increased weight and gender were the main predictors of low PF among primary school children in Lagos, Nigeria.

Texto completoResumen
In 1471-1472 Ferrante King of Naples (r. 1458-1494) ushered in an ambitious political program with clear imperial overtones. This project was centered (at least initially) on countering the Ottoman advance and was based on a complex system of marriage alliances set up through Ferrante’s numerous legitimate and illegitimate children as well as his nieces. This paper shows how Ferrante used his nieces, the daughters born of his sister Eleonora and the disgraced baron Marino Marzano, to draw in a select group of magnates from the eastern, “Illyrian” coast of the Adriatic. These were magnates with previous connections to the Aragonese regime that had been established by Ferrante’s father, Alfonso King of Aragon and Naples (r. 1416/1442-1458). However, after the Ottoman conquest of Bosnia in 1463, they found themselves in a desperate state, as they came under pressure not only from Ottoman raids but also from the centralizing politics of their overlords. Vlatko Kosača, Duke of St. Sava, an Ottoman tributary; Count Stjepan Frankapan of Modruš, a subject of the King of Hungary; and Count Ivan Frankapan of Krk, a Venetian vassal. This paper examines the political circumstances that drove these magnates to respond to Ferrante’s calls and traces the dynamic of the marriage negotiations that transpired between them. The marriage negotiations of Vlatko Kosača are by far the best attested of the three and seem to have been carried out with the least obstacles. Drawing on previously unpublished or simply unknown sources (published in Appendix 1), this paper reconstructs the complex three-way communication that transpired from December of 1472 till June of 1473 between the Neapolitan court, Duke Vlatko in (Herceg-)Novi, and, finally, Vlatko’s sister Catherine, the exiled Queen of Bosnia, who, together with Nicholas bishop of Modruš, helped broker the deal from Rome. The result was the marriage of Duke Vlatko and Ferrante’s niece Margherita Marzano, celebrated in May of 1474. Ivan Frankapan of Krk and Stjepan Frankapan of Modruš established direct contacts with the Neapolitan court as early as October of 1472, when an unnamed Neapolitan envoy — perhaps Ferrante’s resident ambassador in Venice, Anello Arcamone — arrived in Croatia as part of the joint Venetian-papal-Neapolitan mission to reconcile the Croatian magnates (extensive documents related to which are published in Appendix 2). It is argued, however, that both the Frankapani of Krk and the Frankapani of Modruš, much like Costanzo Sforza of Pesaro, were first presented with an opportunity to marry Ferrante’s nieces at the wedding of Ferrante’s older daughter Eleonora d’Aragona and Duke Ercole d’Este in Ferrara in July 1473, which tellingly they both attended. Their experiences with the Neapolitan court thereafter were quite different, as revealed, among other things, by new archival evidence regarding their contacts with Italian courts (the most extensive of which are published in Appendix 3). Ivan Frankapan thus seems to have begun the discussions regarding the marriage of his son Nikola with a Neapolitan princess at the end of 1473 or in the first half of 1474, making use of the growing Neapolitan-Venetian enmity over Cyprus. His plan of secretly sending his son to the Neapolitan court was, however, foiled by Venice, as was his subsequent plan to marry him off to the daughter of Ferrante’s captain general, Federico da Montefeltro. Stjepan Frankapan, on the other hand, had a tense relationship with his overlord, King Matthias of Hungary, but, though he constantly maintained independent contacts with the Italian courts, he only responded to Ferrante’s proposal after September 1474, when the Neapolitan-Hungarian marriage alliance was agreed. The result was the marriage of Stjepan’s son Bernardin to Luisa Marzano, which was celebrated in Naples in summer of 1476, just before the per procuram marriage of Beatrice d’Aragona and King Matthias. This marriage, finally, after a decade of tense relations, brought the Frankapani of Modruš back into their king’s grace. Ultimately all three lords turned to King Ferrante for political reasons and all three hoped that marriages to his nieces would also be followed by the establishments of Aragonese bridgeheads on the eastern Adriatic coast, whether south in Dubrovnik (per the hopes of the Kosače) or north in Senj (per the hopes of the Frankapani). At the same time, it is also clear that there were other non-political questions that were important to the magnates. Probably the most important was the beauty and youth of the bride; not all the Marzano sisters were considered equally attractive. Also, it is interesting that Ferrante insisted on the magnates paying the dowries themselves, since he believed that the protection and prestige that came with marrying into royalty was enough of an incentive. The fact that Bernardin Frankapan of Modruš and Vlatko Kosača agreed to this shows that they did indeed consider them an investment. In the end the Neapolitan heritage became an important element of their family identity even after the collapse of the Aragonese regime.

Objective of this thesis was construction of Engel´s curve of demand for children, separately for mother´s and father´s income. Moreover, analysis shows differences in Engel´s curve according to genders or marital status (if couple is married or not and only lives together). The models were estimated from data of the survey ISSP 2008. Results estimated by OLS models and models with corrected hetoreskedasticity were supported by multinomial regression. Estimations showed that in case of decision about children, women are influenced by income more than men. Own income has negative impact on number of children demanded by woman because of higher opportunity cost. Married women are less influenced by own income than single women, because married women take into the account also income of husband which has positive effect on number of children. In case of men´s demand for children, neither effect of own income nor effect of partner´s income was proven.

Theoretical part of the study summarizes information about developmental dyspraxia (sometimes also known as developmental coordination disorder). It also describes developmental dysphasia which is predominantly studied in logopaedics and it is less known in physiotherapy. The link between these disorders is the topic of the last chapter of the theoretical part. The aim of the practical part is to evaluate motor skills of children with developmental dysphasia with usage of diagnostic battery Movement Assessment Battery for Children 2. Both foreign and newly published Czech population norms have been used for analysis of the results. In the research, 89 children with average age of 69 months have been examined. The first group included 41 children with developmental dysphasia. For this first group, the control group of 48 children was also set up. The research proved statistically significant difference between motor skills of children with developmental dysphasia in comparison to the control group. This difference has been proven by both Czech and foreign norms. On the other hand difference between motor skills of...

This dissestation deals with an evolution of income tax by families with children since 2005 to 2009. The main aim of the dissertation is to find out if the state has gone down or gone up a tax duty of families with children during 5 years. The mentioned fact will be examined for three model families which have either minimal, average or maximum annual incomes. The state has changed methods of personal income tax calculation three times at a period of five years. Many changes have taken place such as a change of tax calculation structure, a change of non-taxable amounts and tax reliefs which affect a final tax substantially. First of all will be analysed the evolution of payer tax relief, wife tax relief and children tax relief by the model families. The above mentioned tax reliefs I consider for main items which affect the tax duty of families with children.

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the science' state of unconventional physical therapies, such as yoga therapy (YT) and equine-assisted therapy (EAT), in the treatment of the Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in children and young adolescents. The aim of this systematic review is to highlight the effects of unconventional physiotherapy in autism. Data from 12 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were retrieved and analyzed to help with the making of this review. Physical, cognitive and social functions were measured in approximately 530 children and adolescents with autism, always partaking in either case or control group. Results indicate that the above mentioned therapies have an overall positive impact in the treatment of autism by reducing the stereotypical behaviors and increasing the cognitive and social functions. Participants vary from 4 to 16 years of age. There is still a gap of knowledge when it comes to all the direct effects and action mechanisms of such therapies in the lives of these children. Therefore a lot of space for further studies is present and also recommended. Future RCTs are needed to better refine treatment choices, in order to come up with new and better ways of dealing with such disorder. Keywords: physiotherapy; yoga therapy; horse riding therapy;...

The diploma thesis surveys the school age children's personality with attention deficit disorder, yoga and its exercise, relaxation techniques and its positive affect on them. The work shows yoga postures' detailed description, sun salutation and the whole lecture. The aim was to bring in yoga exercise to reduce ADHD symptoms and to find out how can regular yoga exercise affect school behavior and self-perceived stress level. By this experiment was used data analysis and presence observing as the survey methods. The current study found that regular yoga exercise at school has slight change in the participants' ADHD symptoms and school behavior. The current study found no change in the participants' self-perceived stress level. Participants viewed yoga as both physical activity and relaxation.

AbstractContrary to the common belief that the age-happiness relationship is mountain shape (the middle aged being happier than children and the aged), it is really largely U shape, with the middle aged (at around mid 30’s or 40’s) least happy. The increase from around 60 to 70’s is particularly clear. However, happiness becomes lower over the last few years of illness before passing away. The decline in happiness from around 12 years old and the trough in happiness level around middle ages may partly be explained by the delay in sleep–wake cycles of teenagers, causing conflict with their mostly middle-aged parents. Recognizing the evolutionary ultimate explanation for this delay advanced here, the society should delay start hours for high schools to fit in with the delayed biological clock of teenagers.

The demographics of schools in United States (U.S.) are rapidly changing. Therefore, teachers in the U. S. need to be prepared to teach children with a wide variety of diverse backgrounds. This article describes an introductory early clinical experience purposefully designed to provide early childhood pre-service teachers from a large Midwestern university in the U. S. with opportunities to teach children in a high-need and diverse setting. Data from exit slips and surveys associated with the Open Doors program were analyzed over four years. Results indicated that almost 90% of candidates felt the experience was beneficial to their professional growth and would consider working in a diverse school. Slightly over 90% felt the experience increased their knowledge and skills regarding working with diverse students. Implications for similar projects are provided.

Abstract This chapter describes the allocation and sending proceedings. The Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980, s 24 establishes a presumption that youth defendants will be dealt with summarily for any indictable offence. A youth defendant will only appear in the Crown Court for trial when charged with homicide; when charged with a firearms offence subject to a mandatory minimum sentence; when charged with a ‘grave crime’; when charged with certain terrorism offences; when notice has been given in a serious or complex fraud; when a notice has been given in a child case; when charged with a specified offence and it is considered that the criteria for imposing a sentence of extended detention are met (dangerous offender); and when charged with an adult offender who has been sent to the Crown Court. Save where allocation to the Crown Court is mandatory (homicide and firearms cases), it is only rarely that a youth court should send a child or young person to the Crown Court for trial, because of the interrelationship between the allocation provisions and the general power to commit for sentence. The youth court is best designed to meet the specific needs of children and young persons.

Pathogens of every type can affect the eye— bacterial, fungal, viral, protozoal, and parasitic. The eye is a complex structure but for the purposes of categorizing infections it can be viewed as a series of layers, which are: ● Conjunctiva ● Cornea ● Vitreous humour ● Retina The bulk of acute conjunctivitis is viral— up to 90% of infection will be due to adenovirus. Enterovirus species can cause acute epidemic haemorrhagic conjunctivitis, e.g. coxsackie A 24 virus, enterovirus 70. Bacterial causes are more common in children than adults and include S. aureus, S. pneumoniae, and H. influenzae. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram negatives may cause conjunctivitis in contact lens wearers. It is sometimes possible to differentiate viral from bacterial disease clinically. Where viral conjunctivitis usually results in watery eyes and often comes in concert with a more generalized viral illness, bacterial infection usually occurs in the absence of systemic features and is more likely to be associated with purulent discharge or matting of the eyelids. Viral conjunctivitis does not require specific treatment save in the rare instances where herpes simplex virus is the causative agent—topical aciclovir can then be used. Bacterial infections, however, will resolve more rapidly with topical therapy. A wide range of preparations are available but topical chloramphenicol is the mainstay of treatment. Purulent conjunctivitis in the neonate is often a result of congenitally acquired N. gonorrhoeae or Chlamydia trachomatis infection. In these circumstances conjunctivitis can be the herald of systemic infection and it is therefore wise to treat both systemically and topically. Swabs can be sent for PCR and culture to identify the pathogen. Chlamydia can be treated with topical and oral azithromycin; gonococcal infection can be treated with topical chloramphenicol and a systemic cephalosporin chosen based on local sensitivity patterns. Sexually active adults can also occasionally suffer from these infections and should be treated similarly. Herpes simplex virus is a relatively common cause, usually inoculated directly into the eye by contaminated fingers. The classic presentation is with a unilateral dendritic ulcer, easily visualized on fluorescein dye staining. Herpes zoster virus can also affect the cornea—reactivation in the distribution of the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve (CN V) results in ophthalmic shingles.

Three children with severe inherited bleeding disorders have been followed for a number of years at this center. One child (DOB 3/71) initially presented with mild hemophilia A, (Factor VIII 6%). He subsequently developed an inhibitor to Factor VIII (maximum 45 B. U.) and seroconverted to HIV+ Status 12/83. In 12/86 he had virtually lost his antibody response to infused Factor VIII (previously withheld), with a maximum increase in inhibitor titre to1 B. U. on challenge. In addition, his antitetanus antibody titre was very low at 0.01 u/ml earlier in theyear. His absolute T4 cell number at this time was very low at 64 and did not respond to skin antigen testing to PPD, tetanus and Candida.The second patient (severe hemophilia A DOB 7/76) had seroconvertedto HIV+ Status in 9/78. This child has lost his a-HBs seropositive status with an absolute T4 count of 239. His current anti-tetanus titre is 0.01 u/ml.The third patient (von Willebrand disease, Type III, DOB 7/74) seroconverted to HIV+E status by 5/83. His T4 absolute numbers have fallen to 53. His anti-tetanus antibody titre has fallen to extremely low levels (0.01 u/ml), and this failed to respond to re-immunization with tetanus toxoid. These three patients indicate that previously immunized children may lose their immune status and their ability to respond to recall antigens. It is pertinent to note that lymphocytes from all 3 patients failed to respond mitogenically in vitro to tetanus antigen pari passu with the observed very low anti-tetanus antibody titres. These phenomena would indicate that these patients are probably susceptible to previously preventable infectious agents including poliovirus, measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus and hepatitis B virus.

Persons with various degrees of visual impairment are part of the education system and often pose a pedagogic challenge to educators and teachers. Despite advances in medicine, many children and parents struggle with vision difficulties such as strabismus, large refractive errors, and various congenital defects that cause inadequate visual development and amblyopia. Teachers and educators often lack opportunities to receive training on vision difficulties. The paper is intended for teaching staff in educational institutions and non-teaching staff who work with the visually impaired. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the most common causes of visual impairment and to show the world how children with different visual impairments visually experience it in order to better understand their problems and the way they experience and perceive their environment. How does a healthy child wearing glasses see the world? What does the world look like to a child with strabismus or a child with a severe visual impairment? These are just some of the questions that the paper will answer as a contribution to the development of special competencies in educators and teachers for better inclusion of children with visual impairments in the educational system. In our daily work, we have noticed that visually impaired people and people with strabismus are more likely to encounter certain prejudices regarding their physical appearance. Every prejudice stems from inadequate knowledge of the matter, and we hope that this paper can contribute to an adequate perception of this issue. In conclusion, we believe that it is necessary to establish better cooperation between health and school institutions for the benefit of persons with disabilities, including the visually impaired

The purpose of sleep is to help children grow and develop, which is why many parents try to lull their children to sleep. The present paper investigates what types of feelings, desires, blessings and expectations from a childare contained in lullabies sung by different nations, as well as what perspectives on sleep and lulling a child to sleep there are. The corpus consists of 120 lullabies published in Milutin Đuričković‟s book “Zvezdice sna: uspavanke naroda sveta” (2021). The content analysis technique and descriptive method are used in analyzing the corpus. The obtained results show that the blessings and desires in the lullabies are concerned with the child‟s health, happiness and long life. They are related to dreams that come to life, which provides evidence for lullabies having a magic function. The expectations from a child show that the child was raised to fulfill the expectations of his/her family and the community. The analysis of the perspectives on sleep and lulling a child to sleep shows that emphasis is placed on the quality of sleep, the things that help the child go to sleep and the role of family, primarily that of mother, in creating optimum conditions for going to sleep and removing sleep distractions. The analyzed lullabies also contain a model of raising a child – encouraging the desired behavior (sleeping) by rewarding a child or punishing a child for misbehavior by frightening him/her as a means of reactive discipline. The analysis shows that the lullabies belonging to different nations have many elements in common. The fact that the lullabies used to have other functions besides the basic one suggests the need for further research.

In this paper, the authors discusses a comparative overview of the legal frameworks governing the appeal of conscience, with emphasis on the reproductive medicine first of the Republic of Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia and the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and after that of the Spain, Norway, Sweden, Italy and France. In the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1978, which parts were Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Slovenia and Croatia, the Law on Health Measures for Exercising the Right to Free Decision-Making on the Birth of Children entered into force, which is still in force in the Republic of Croatia. After the break-up of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, some states that were part of it regulated the right to conscience by the Constitution and some only by the laws in the field of health and health care. We identified a number of problems through the analysis. In the paper, the topic is analyzed in detail. For example, in the Republic of Croatia, there is no uniform and standardized procedure for refusing to perform certain services due to the appeal of conscience, there is no systematic collection of data on health personnel with the appeal of conscience and about the impact of the appeal of conscience on the quality of health care.

The paper analyzes the situation in the craft and craft ́s legal regulations, in the period from the beginning of the XIX century to the 30s of the XX century, i.e. until the adoption of the Yugoslav Law on Actions. At the beginning of the 19th century, the patriarchal spirit ruled in the craft; a quasi-family relationship was established between the masters and the students. Craftsmen provided themselves protection from competition through associations in guilds and its tradition rules. In the middle of the 19th century, the Decree on Guilds was passed, which regulated labor relations in crafts and trade. At the end of the 19th century, due to the increased import of goods, the situation in the craft has changed, patriarchal relations were disturbed, and there was general dissatisfaction among the workers. Therefore, a huge action was taken for the modern regulation of labor relations, which came in 1910, with the adoption of the Law on Actions. But, despite the modern legal regulation of labor relations, the factual situation in the craft has not changed. Therefore, the paper will point out the basic reasons for the decline of the craft, as well as the normative attempts to save it.

The need for energy efficiency captured the attention of all sectors of our society in the 1970s when energy supplies dwindled and prices increased. Interest in energy efficiency continued during the 1980s primarily due to environmental concerns and secondarily because of economic and industrial competitiveness issues. Energy supply disruptions caused by hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and recent hikes in energy prices have generated a renewed interest in energy efficiency. An example of this renewed interest is that the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) initiated, developed, and implemented a national campaign to save energy now in 2006. In the past, the industrial sector has responded to energy shortages and its price increases with varying effectiveness, but small and medium-sized plants generally lacked the resources to cope effectively. One of the U. S. government’s responses to this situation was to offer these small and medium-sized plants technical assistance such as Industrial Assessment Center (IAC) program. One such center was established at Bradley University in 1993. Since its inception, the Bradley University Industrial Assessment Center (BU IAC) has functioned very successfully. Periodically BU IAC has been doing an in-house critical review of its performance and effectiveness. These reviews included outcomes such as total assessment recommendations, (ARs); diversity of ARs; quantifications of identified opportunities to save energy, minimize waste, and enhance productivity; implementation rates analysis; and impacts on energy engineering education. The purpose of this paper is to describe the impacts of the Industrial Assessment Center program on energy engineering education. The impacts on employment, salaries, and job performance of BU IAC graduates are discussed in this paper. The impacts of the BU IAC in improving the quality of in-class instruction by its Director(s) are explained in this paper.

Texto completoResumen
Less than 15 years ago the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute surveyed physicians in the United States in order to characterize the demographics of hemophilia. The average age of persons with hemophilia in the United States was found to be 11.5 years old. By 10 years later, the life expectancy was predicted to be normal, and indeed the average age of persons with hemophilia in the U.S. is now in the early twenties. Early, intensive and predictably efficacious control of hemorrhage has made this result possible, and the therapeutic product which has allowed such control is commercial clotting factor concentrate.We now know that starting in 1978, and with great frquency during 1982 and 1983, the majority of U.S. hemophiliacs were infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It is estimated that as of January, 1987, approximately two thirds of the 20,000' persons with hemophilia in the United States have been infected with HIV. Among those with severe factor VIII deficiency, more than 9056 are seropositive. As of 1/5/87, there were 288 cases of AIDS among U.S. hemophiliacs, for an AIDS rate of approximately 2.256 of those with HIV infection. This number included 185 with severe, 32 with moderate and 28 with mild hemophilia A; 12 with severe, 6 with moderate and 1 with mild hemophilia B; 9 with vWD, and 4 others. A disproportionate number were older patients: 55 were ages 1-19; 62 ages 20-29; 85 ages 30-39, and 86 age 40 or older. Although the AIDS attack rate is no longer climbing logarhythmically, new cases are certainly still occurring.A variety of other HIV-related syndromes have emerged. Of great concern is immune thrombocytopenia, which is now relatively common; among a group of 209 carefully followed HIV-positive patients at our center, 31 (1556) are or have been thrombocytopenic. Progressive failure to normally gain height and weight in children with hemophilia has recently been shown by our group to correlate with HIV antibody positivity, and also with decreased T4/T8 ratio, decreased T4 cell count, decreased skin test reactivity, and subsequent development of ARC or AIDS in some such children. Finally, a picture of progressive fall in T4 count associated with recurrent non-specific infections and increased likelihood of positive viral culture, may predict an increased risk of developing AIDS.We know that the immune dysfunction in hemophilia is complex, and not wholly explained by HIV infection. One important factor may be the many foreign proteins contained in commercial clotting factor concentrates, and their ability to stimulate T cells. It is known that latent HIV infection in cultured T4 lymphocytes can be induced to enter the proliferative, viral secretory phase by the addition of soluble foreign antigens to the cell culture. Recent data of Brettler and colleagues, to be presented at this meeting, suggest that the use of highly purified VI!I:C (specific activity >3000 u/mg) in place of the present extremely impure products, may improve the immune dysfunction in hemophilia. This observation offers a new hypothetical approach to the prevention of progressive T4 cell depletion in HIV infected hemophiliacs, and requires immediate and extensive further study.The psychosocial burden of HIV infection is immense. The need for extensive, formal education and support programs is largely unmet in most parts of the world. Such programs are best run out of hemophilia treatment centers in most cases, and must include an active program on prevention of sexual transmission, provision of HIV testing before and during pregnancies, provision for maintenance of confidentiality, etc. Education concerning HIV is like all other forms of education. It requires formal organization, a curriculum, active rather than passive learning in which there is interaction between the teacher and the pupil, time for planned repetition, reinforcement with written materials, and assessment of goals achieved. For all of these reasons it is inappropriate to assume that the physician at the hemophilia center will be able to provide an adequate education program. Adquate paramedical personnel will need to undertake this effort, under the directjon of the physician.

According to the Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory of human development ([1][2][3][4][5]), the development of each individual cannot be observed without considering its relationship with the development of other people and, above all, with the environment in which they live. The ecological orientation of Bronfenbrenner with respect to human development is therefore based on the interest in the progressive adaptation between an active organism that grows and its immediate environment: the individual-environment interaction that is determined by the relationships existing between the different environmental situations and the individuals present in that context is fundamental. Consequently, the ecological environment that is considered relevant to development processes is not limited to a single environmental situation but includes the interconnections between multiple environmental situations and the different influences of each individual. The evolution of the Internet-based technologies has brought to the development of solutions that have profoundly changed the way we live, including education. The advent of social media and social networks represents a milestone in the history of Internet, opening up to profound reflections on the "virtualization" of relationships, their growing importance in everyday life, and their role in education. Many authors argue that the Internet and the social media should no longer be considered as a tool to connect to a virtual reality that is separate from the real world, but as a place in which users live daily ([6][9][11][10]); consequently, they constitute one of the environmental situations mentioned by Bronfenbrenner. However, the risks deriving from the use of social media have been widely discusses in the literature ([7][8][12]). Adolescents are more exposed to the social media threats, since they are unable to perceive the profoundly different dynamics that govern offline and online networks. In this paper, having in mind the Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory of human development, we argue that the progressive adaptation of students to social media should be considered as a process of their growth and development. Furthermore, we analyze some corrections to be introduced in the educational paths of adolescents necessary to reduce the threats deriving from the use of social media and social networks in education.

School meals are typically served to children for free, at a reduced price, or at full price depending on their household income and size. In response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the U. S. Department of Agriculture issued a waiver allowing schools to provide meals for free to all students, regardless of household income, in the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years. This waiver expired on June 30, 2022, leading some advocates and policymakers to express concern that the reintroduction of prices for school meals could make it difficult for some households to meet their other expenses. This study finds that overall, nearly one-third of households with children ages 5-17 that paid for school meals in December 2022 reported that doing so made it difficult for them to pay for other usual expenses. The share reporting the same among households with school-aged children and incomes below 225 percent of the Federal poverty level, and among non-White households with school-aged children, was higher than the overall share.

Texto completoResumen
TB was the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent until the COVID pandemic. The number of people newly diagnosed with TB in 2020 fell by 18% from the previous year due to disruptions to health systems and services caused by the pandemic, with only a partial recovery in 2021. As a result, in 2021, only one in three people with drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) received treatment for the disease. However, since the onset of the pandemic, more effective and patient-friendly treatments and regimens for adults and children have become available to the TB community. Now more than ever there is a need to accelerate treatment and save more lives. This Issue Brief – the eighth in this series – by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)’s Access Campaign, examines the current landscape and trends of DR-TB drug pricing and patents, and highlights challenges and opportunities to accelerate people’s access to lifesaving regimens that are shorter, all-oral and make use of the most effective medicines.
