Game Design, Effectiveness, and Implementation of Serious Games Promoting Aspects of Mental Health Literacy Among Children and Adolescents: Systematic Review

Game Design, Effectiveness, and Implementation of Serious Games Promoting Aspects of Mental Health Literacy Among Children and Adolescents: Systematic Review

A recent survey on health behavior in school-age children in Austria [16] showed that a substantial proportion of those aged 11 to 17 years (31% of the girls and 24% of the boys) reported low levels of self-efficacy. Furthermore, mental health literacy seemed to be particularly low, with only approximately half of those aged 11 to 17 years reporting that they knew where to find support for themselves or relatives in the event of mental health problems [16].

Reasons for Crown Failures in Primary Teeth: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Reasons for Crown Failures in Primary Teeth: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Dental caries is a highly prevalent chronic disease affecting millions of children worldwide, leading to pain, infection, and difficulties in eating and speaking [1-3]. Untreated caries of the primary teeth may affect over 621 million children globally [1]. Early intervention with fillings is essential to manage caries, but in cases where the tooth structure is significantly compromised, pediatric dental crowns become necessary to preserve the tooth’s functionality and prevent premature loss [4].

Readdressing the Ongoing Challenge of Missing Data in Youth Ecological Momentary Assessment Studies: Meta-Analysis Update

Readdressing the Ongoing Challenge of Missing Data in Youth Ecological Momentary Assessment Studies: Meta-Analysis Update

For example, a recent study applied EMA in such marginalized minority groups as asylum-seeking children [177], while other EMA protocols were scaled to public implementation [26], where any app-store user could become a participant but would receive only minimal participant care [9,19]. Although such pioneering work may suffer from more missing data, it is not necessarily poorly conducted regarding the valuable insights it offers.

Mobile Health Interventions for Modifying Indigenous Maternal and Child–Health Related Behaviors: Systematic Review

Mobile Health Interventions for Modifying Indigenous Maternal and Child–Health Related Behaviors: Systematic Review

Studies were excluded if they reported on the development or design of a digital health intervention without reporting on its effectiveness on the behavioral outcomes of Indigenous women and children, reported on mixed Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations without reporting subgroup data, or applied the intervention directly to children with the intention to change maternal behavior.

Evidence of Interventions for the Prevention of Unintentional Injuries: Scoping Review

Unintentional injuries were noted among children of younger mothers, overactive children, children belonging to extended or joint families, and children from urban dwellings, which assists in the identification of contributing risk factors to formulate strategies aimed at risk reduction and prevention of childhood injuries [9].

Pain Assessment Tools for Infants, Children, and Adolescents With Cancer: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Pain Assessment Tools for Infants, Children, and Adolescents With Cancer: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Annually, an estimated 400,000 children and adolescents aged 0-19 years are diagnosed with all types of cancer [1,2]. Due to advances in medical care, >80% of these children will become long-term survivors in high-income countries, while Palliative care for children refers to the active total care of the child’s body, mind, and spirit, and involves providing support to the family.

Primary Tumors of the Brain and Central Nervous System in Adults and Children in Sub-Saharan Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Primary Tumors of the Brain and Central Nervous System in Adults and Children in Sub-Saharan Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review

Late detection of cancers is common, with later reporting and higher reported case fatality rates among adults and children [4]. Furthermore, the SSA medical workforce in oncology, neurology, and neurosurgery is severely undercapacitated, further impeding the effective management of brain and CNS tumors. Although less common than other neoplasms, CNS tumors rank comparatively high as a cause of death due to their high case fatality rates.

Artificial Intelligence Models for Pediatric Lung Sound Analysis: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Artificial Intelligence Models for Pediatric Lung Sound Analysis: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Accurate and timely diagnosis is essential for the treatment of pediatric respiratory illnesses, which remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among children worldwide [1,2]. Auscultation of lung sounds is the most widely used method of respiratory diagnosis due to its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and safety.

Evaluation of a Curriculum-Based Nutrition Education Intervention Protocol in Elementary Schools: Nonrandomized Feasibility Study

The first phase of the lesson, “Minds On”, introduces children to the lesson topic and establishes expectations (5‐10 min). In the second phase, “Exploration”, children play through 1 module of the Foodbot Factory serious game on a tablet provided by the research team (10‐15 min). For the final phase, “Consolidation”, discussion and teacher-led activities allow children to connect their new knowledge from the serious game to their previous knowledge and lived experiences (10 min).
