This study aimed to explore the association between sensory reactivity (SR) and feeding problems in children at 3-7 years of age. We analysed data from 589 Spanish children from the InProS project, a population-based cross-sectional study. SR was measured using the Short Sensory Profile (SSP) as a two-level categorical variable (SR or no SR) and feeding problems (food variety, texture problems, or both feeding problems) were collected using closed questions (yes or no).

Therefore, this study examined the association between television viewing time and atypical sensory reactivity (SR) in children aged from three to seven years.
Methods: We evaluated data from the InProS cross-sectional study (n = 545).
Importance: The Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) is an evidence-based intervention approach that has significantly increased in popularity over the past two decades. However, how the research literature on this topic is patterned is still unknown, so it is difficult to identify potential areas for research and clinical interest.
Aims: To analyze the literature published on the CO-OP approach to provide a detailed and structured analysis of the publication patterns.
Background The Box and Block Test (BBT) is a highly recommended outcome measure to assess unilateral gross motor activity of the upper limbs. The BBT has not previously been available in a version adapted to the Spanish context. Thus, this study aimed to cross-culturally adapt and translate the BBT's instructions and pilot test the Spanish version of BBT in adults with acquired brain injury (ABI).

Modifiable behavioural and metabolic risk factors significantly contribute to the burden of CVD. Given the vast socio-demographic and health outcome heterogeneity in Latin America, similar southern Latin American countries (Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay) were analysed as a distinct group to describe the CVD death rates related to metabolic and behavioural risk factors.
