- Findings suggest that fear associated with COVID-19 is linked to increased bullying, depression, and anxiety, while social support appears to mitigate some of these effects, highlighting the need for interventions involving teachers and parents.
The concept of left ventricular unloading has its foundation in heart physiology. In fact, the left ventricular mechanics and energetics represent the cornerstone of this approach. The novel sophisticated therapies for acute heart failure, particularly mechanical circulatory supports, strongly impact on the mechanical functioning and energy consuption of the heart, ultimately affecting left ventricle loading.

Despite significant attention to child's exposure to traumas, few instruments to detect potentially traumatic events have been validated psychometrically. Our study aimed to develop, adapt and validate a user-friendly traumatic events checklist in Palestinian children living in three areas affected by low-intensity war and ongoing political and military violence.
