Increased screen time (ST) among preschool children is becoming a matter of concern globally. Although gadgets such as phones, tablets and computers might be educational use in this population, excessive ST impair cognitive function preschoolers. As data on topic are scarce, study sought to investigate the relationship between executive functions (EFs) population. A total 1016 aged 5–6 years (M = 70.8 months, SD 4.5) were tested using Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment (NEPSY-II) Dimensional Change Card Sort tests for flexibility (CF), visual working memory (WM), verbal WM, inhibition motor persistence with parental consent, while was reported via questionnaire completed by their mothers. Participants spent approximately 2 h both active passive per day, boys spending much more than girls. There very weak negative correlation CF ST, WM ST. Additionally, there weekday. To ensure proper development EFs children, should limited ≤ 1 day high-quality educational/interactive content previously determined eminent pediatric institutions worldwide. Proven remedies that enhance physical activity training, practiced regularly.

Abstract Although previous studies have suggested an association between digital media use and health, detailed knowledge about how different types of impact adolescent health is limited. This cross-sectional population-based study explored the relationship time spent on various adolescents’ self-rated general mental health. The included 3566 Swedish high school students aged 16–17 years. Associations (social media, gaming, watching movies/series/video clips etc. schoolwork) outcomes (general self-esteem, symptoms worry/anxiety low mood/depression, trust in other people, head/neck/shoulder pain sleep quality) was assessed. Statistical analyses employed logistic regression models adjusted for covariates (sociodemographic variables behaviours). In models, spending very amounts (≥ 6 h/day) any except schoolwork, associated with poor mood/depression (ORs 1.35–2.93, p < 0.05).

Visuomotor function impairment is commonly observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). In this case report, a 13-year-old child diagnosed NF1 and impaired visuomotor skills participated an 8-week tablet computer-based cognitive training for function.

The modernization of technology today has raised concerns among parents and health professionals about its probable impact on children's sleep, vision, behavior, school performance. This study explores the effects digital screen use focusing time duration, parental use, device types, supervision. It examines key risk factors correlations. A descriptive design was used to explore impacts usage behavior. Parents 580 children aged 1-12 years from Duhok City, Iraq, were included. data collected through online questionnaires addressing demographic data, time, physical behavioral issues.

ABSTRACT Background Adherence to 24‐h movement behaviour (24‐h MB) guidelines, encompassing moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA), recreational screen time (ST) and sleep, is low among Australian children adolescents, with poorly understood contributing factors. This review synthesised current evidence identify areas requiring further exploration in this demographic. Methods A systematic search PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, SportDiscus CINAHL identified articles published from June 2016 March 2024. Peer‐reviewed English focusing on healthy school‐aged adolescents (5–17 years) addressing MB including those using compositional data analysis (CoDA), were included.

Insufficient physical activity, excessive recreational screen time, and inadequate sleep pose health risks in school-aged children adolescents. The Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for Children Youth advocate balanced daily movement behaviours. This population-level study British Columbia (BC), Canada, examined the proportion of young adolescents following these guidelines how adherence correlated with their mental well-being. Using cross-sectional self-report data from 26,974 grades 6-8 (48% girls, mean age = 13.31) who had completed Middle Years Development Instrument (MDI) BC 2023, we calculated percentages meeting activity (at least 1 h daily), (9 + hours 5- to 13-year-olds, 8 > 13-year-olds), time (no more than 2 daily) recommendations. Eight groupings were created, indicating many which behaviour met: none, only, sleep, all three Mean differences depressive symptoms, optimism, satisfaction life scores across categories estimated through sex-stratified linear mixed models, adjusting covariates. Four percent met recommendations, while 15% none. Meeting some or recommendations was associated higher levels optimism life, lower symptoms compared Beneficial effects overall larger largest among girls versus none (-1.05, 95% CI [-1.14, -0.96]).
