Health professionals in Greece face barriers assessing child and adolescent mental health conditions due to the lack of instruments with evidence validity local samples. This study addresses this gap by evaluating psychometric properties establishing common norms for six globally recognized tools Greece: Child Adolescent Trauma Screen-2 (CATS-2), Pediatric Symptoms Checklist-17 (PSC-17), Revised Children's Anxiety Depression Scale-25 (RCADS-25), Swanson, Nolan, Pelham Scale (SNAP-IV),...
The amplitude of the post‐ganglionic potential was measured in isolated preparations superior cervical ganglion from rats at different stages thiamine deficiency. At low frequency stimulation (0·5/sec) a decrease not observed until final high (20/sec) thiamine‐deficient showed an early and much more pronounced comparison with that both normal animals pair‐fed controls. conduction velocity components sympathetic cord action were unaffected by
AbstractThe slow potentials and afferent discharge of impulses in frog semicircular canals have been studied at different endolymphatic perilymphatic K+ concentrations. Results indicate that the presence K ions bathing fluids is essential for maintaining receptor function crista ampullaris, although very low concentrations this ion perilymph are sufficient to preserve responsiveness mechanical stimuli. The hypothesis put forward may be pumped from exterior canal towards intracupular...
To evaluate physical and mental health indicators in adolescents with preexisting chronic immunocompromised conditions during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) quarantine.
To assess the possible factors that influence sleep quality in adolescents with and without chronic immunosuppressive conditions quarantined during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
AbstractThe role of various ions in stimuli conversion has been investigated isolated frog semicircular canals, by replacing the endolymph with solutions deprived turn Na+, K+, Cl− and Ca++. Mechanical electrical were employed slow ampullar nerve potentials recorded, together afferent discharge impulses eighth nerve. The results support evidence that K+ is carrier receptor current, as postulated Davis hypothesis, while Ca++ essential processes which allow current to be modulated during...
Abstract Background Health systems need tools to assess patient’s experience of service, but existing lack reliability and validity assessment. Our aim is investigate the factor structure, reliability, validity, item parameters interpretability parent version Experience Service Questionnaire (ESQ) for practical use in Greece. Methods A total 265 caregivers that were using mental health services Greece participated this study as part Nationwide cross-sectional survey from Child Adolescent...
Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic has had major impacts in many different spheres, including mental health. Children and adolescents are especially vulnerable because their central nervous system is still development they have fewer coping resources than do adults. Increases the prevalence of depressive anxiety symptomatology been reported worldwide. However, access to health care limited, for paediatric population low- middle-income countries. Therefore, we developed a brief...
To assess factors associated with emotional changes and Hyperactivity/Inattention (HI) motivated by COVID-19 quarantine in adolescents immunocompromising diseases.A cross-sectional study included 343 diseases 108 healthy adolescents. Online questionnaires were answered including socio-demographic data self-rated healthcare routine during validated surveys: Strengths Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0).The...
Incubation of isolated preparations the superior cervical ganglion rat in presence low concentrations oxythiamine and pyrithiamine results an early pronounced decrease post‐ganglionic potential. This effect is particularly evident with regard to oxythiamine. The depressant action both antithiamines on transmission appears be specifically due their metabolic competition because it can completely prevented by equimolecular amounts thiamine incubating medium.
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze factors associated with the legal status at psychiatric admission individuals psychosis or bipolar disorder in a Latin-American cultural setting. Methods: Prospective observational study, conducted São Paulo, Brazil. We analyzed 169 psychotic need hospitalization. Sociodemographic data, data on disorder, information about hospital stay and time discharge were collected. Their families also contacted by telephone interviews 1, 2, 6 12 months...
Ionic mechanisms sustaining sensory transduction in crista ampullaris cells have been investigated chiefly by replacing the endolymph with solutions K+ and Ca++ chelators added. The effects of modified were evaluated extracellular intracellular recordings both presynaptic postsynaptic activity ampullar receptors. results strongly suggest that receptor current labyrinthine is carried exclusively K+. Moreover evidence are reported indicating transducer membrane receptors provided sensitive...
The aim of this study was to assess mental health in Latin American pediatric rheumatologists (LAPRs) during the COVID-19 pandemic.A cross-sectional performed with 318 LAPRs based on an online, self-rated survey about clinical practice/mental impacts pandemic. Validated self-reported scales for anxiety (Generalized Anxiety Disorder [GAD-7]) and depression (Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-9]) were evaluated.The response rate 126 (40%), including 13 20 (65%) countries. Working frontline...
