About Your Child's Eating scale: a cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the questionnaire in the Greek language.

Feeding is an interactive process between parents and children and is related to children's healthy nutrition, growth, and feelings about the child or parent. The effectiveness of the interaction between feeding and behaviour is strongly influenced by how well this reciprocal procedure is stimulated and supported. The current study aimed to cross-culturally adapt and validate the About Your Child's Eating (AYCE) questionnaire in its Greek language version for Greek-Cypriot parents and caregivers of children aged six months to 16 years with or without feeding and swallowing problems.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Focal Vibration Therapy-Novafon as an Assistive Therapeutic Tool for Children With Feeding and Swallowing Disorders.

Background: Paediatric dysphagia refers to any feeding and/or swallowing problem that affects nutritional or liquid intake safety or adequacy. There is a prominent lack of available evidence-based effective therapeutic tools to facilitate the rehabilitation of feeding and/or swallowing disorders in children.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of focal vibration therapy-Novafon as an assistive therapeutic intervention for children with feeding and swallowing difficulties.

Using telepractice for language sampling during COVID-19 pandemic: A scoping review.

Introduction: Language sampling is a widely used means of language assessment; it is based on the collection and transcription of a child's language production in various communicative contexts. The need for social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic impacted language sampling and speech and language therapy services in general. The in-person assessment became extremely challenging leading to the immediate increased use of telepractice in speech and language therapy.

Fidelity to and utility of a home blood pressure self-monitoring regime in people with pre-hypertension: results from the REVERSE study.

Introduction: Around 40% of adults have pre-hypertension (120-139/80-89mmHg) increasing their risk of developing hypertension and associated cardiovascular conditions. Guidance on pre-hypertension management focuses on improving lifestyle. Self-monitoring may improve awareness and understanding of blood pressure (BP) for people with pre-hypertension, allowing them to modify their lifestyle risks.

Exploring the diagnostic accuracy and applicability of the Gugging Swallowing Screen in children with feeding and/or swallowing disorders.

Background: The Gugging Swallowing Screen (GUSS) is a bedside dysphagia screening tool that has been designed to determine the risk of aspiration in acute stroke patients. There is no evidence in the literature for the GUSS for the pediatric population. The present study aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of GUSS as a screening tool in the Greek language for children with dysphagia.
