Abstract Background: Raising a child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a key challenge for the primary caregiver. This systematic review aims to identify major burdens facing the primary caregiver of a child with ADHD. Methods: The electronic databases CINAHL, PubMed, and Google Scholar were searched for studies published in English from 2017 to 2022 assessing the challenges facing caregivers of a child with ADHD. The Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Model was used to assess quality and risk of bias of studies identified for inclusion. Articles were synthesized by evaluating principal themes of burden… More >

Abstract Objective: Many children with fully corrected congenital heart disease (CHD) avoid physical activity (PA). This descriptive study sought to determine child and parental factors that could predict PA levels in Thai children after corrective surgery. Methods: Ninety school-aged children with fully corrected CHD were recruited from a cardiology clinic at a university hospital in northern Thailand. Data collection involved five validated questionnaires: (1) the Modified Thai Adolescent’s Physical Activity Questionnaire, (2) the Child Health Status Questionnaire-Forms I and II, (3) the Parental Knowledge on School-aged Children’s Physical Activity Scale, (4) the Perceived Self-efficacy to Physical Activity… More >

Abstract Congenital atrial septal defect (ASD) with severe scoliosis is a rare compound malformation in children. Severe scoliosis should be corrected as soon as possible. The growth rod is suitable for patients with early scoliosis and obvious scoliosis under 10 years old. However, the fluoroscopic radiopaque of titanium alloy plate will inevitably partly make the operative field of interventional occlusion blind. We present a 7-year-old Chinese girl with ASD and scoliosis who underwent spinal correction with a dual-growth rod. In this case, we performed transcatheter closure of ASD solely under the guidance of transthoracic echocardiography. Transthoracic More >

Abstract Objectives: Attachment is a profound and enduring connection to the emotion children progressively form with their parents as they mature. It significantly impacts the social and psychological development of kids and teenagers. This study aimed to explore the latent profiles and longitudinal transition patterns of parent-child and peer attachments among adolescents. Methods: A cohort of 914 participants from China completed the measures with a twelve-month interval. There were 46.8% boys and 53.2% girls in this survey. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was adopted to explore the distinct profiles reflecting different parent-child and peer attachment response patterns… More >

Abstract Background: Parents of children with autism are susceptible to parenting burnout due to tremendous parenting burden and parenting challenges. Parenting burnout has a detrimental effect on both children with autism and their parents. However, the underlying mechanisms that lead to parenting burnout remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between parenting stress and parenting burnout, along with the serial mediation effect of social support and coping strategies in the context of families with autistic children. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in 231 parents of autistic children in four autism facilities located in… More >

Abstract Objectives: The statistics from World Health Organization show a high incidence of childhood maltreatment which has a negative impact on the development of middle school students; for this reason, it is necessary to investigate the potential harms of childhood maltreatment. This study aimed to explore the direct negative consequences of childhood maltreatment on subjective well-being as well as the mediating roles of shyness and emotion regulation strategies. Methods: A random cluster sampling survey was conducted among 1021 Chinese middle school students (male 49.2%, female 50.8%). The Subjective Well-Being Scale (SWLS), The Positive affect and Negative… More >

Abstract Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive condition with a poor prognosis in children. Lung transplantation (Ltx) remains the ultimate option when patients are refractory to PAH-specific therapy. Reverse Potts shunt (RPS) has been introduced to treat suprasystemic PAH. This study aims to investigate the clinical outcomes of suprasystemic PAH in children. Methods Embase, Pubmed, and the Cochrane Library databases were searched for related studies that reported the clinical outcomes of suprasystemic PAH following RPS in children. To investigate the clinical outcomes of RPS, meta-analyses of the early and overall mortalities were performed. Results Nine studies… More >

Abstract Background: Childhood environmental unpredictability (CEU) is crucial to personal development, profoundly influence physical and psychological growth particularly, and psychopathy is recognized as a dark personality trait. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of insecure attachment and life history strategy (LHS) on the relationship between CEU and psychopathy by establishing a sequential mediation model based on evolutionary life history theory and cognitive-affective personality system. Methods: A group of 532 undergraduates completed the measurements for CEU, insecure attachment, LHS, and psychopathy, and Bootstrap mediation test through SPSS 25.0 and PROCESS macro tool was… More >
