Investigation of cognitive functions in children with bone tumours and lymphoma in treatment process.

Background: Neurocognitive sequelae are among the most debilitating effects of cancer observed in children. Yet we know very little about the impact on neurocognitive functioning, especially cancer types that develop outside the central nervous system. This study aimed to assess and compare the cognitive functions (CoF) of children with bone tumours and lymphoma in the treatment process.

How does therapist guided game-based intervention program effect motor skills in children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?: Single blind randomised study design.

Background: Virtual reality and game-based approaches to the rehabilitation process also brought an opportunity to design more accessible intervention programs.It was seen that many studies utilized trademarked and commercially available games, which were not originally designed as rehabilitation tools but were administrated by a rehabilitation professional to achieve the maximum therapeutic value.

Aims: Study aims to investigate the effects of a Self-oriented game based program(SGBP)and Therapist Guided Game-based Intervention Program(TGGIP) on the motor skills of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD).

Where Exactly Is the Therapist in Virtual Reality and Game-Based Rehabilitation Applications? A Randomized Controlled Trial in Children with Specific Learning Disability.

Children with specific learning disability (SLD) experience problems in visual perception that influence academical skills and activities of daily living. Virtual reality and game-based rehabilitation applications are becoming increasingly popular in rehabilitation, including visual perception rehabilitation. However, the usage of commercially available and easily accessible games as intervention tools raises the question whether rehabilitation conducted with these games is really rehabilitation, or just casual gameplay.

Secretan Syndrome: A Fluctuating Case of Factitious Lymphedema.

Secretan syndrome (SS) is a recurrent or chronic form of factitious lymphedema that usually affects the dorsal aspect of the hand and is accepted as a subtype of Munchausen syndrome. Secretan syndrome usually is induced by compression of the extremity by tourniquets, ligatures, cords, or similar equipment. This unconsciously motivated and consciously produced lymphedema is an expression of underlying psychiatric disease.

The relationship of motor development with sensory processing among infants born very preterm: a prospective case-control study.

Background: Little is known about the relationship between sensory processing and motor development in very preterm infants. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of motor development with sensory processing among such infants with developmental delay and those who had typical development at the ages of 8 and 12 months.

Methods: This prospective case-control study included 61 preterm infants (31 males, 30 females, mean gestational age: 29.

Demographic, clinical and dermoscopic features of melanocytic nevi on the scalp.

Background: The scalp is a special anatomical area and dermoscopic findings of this region may significantly differ from other body parts.

Objective: To investigate and compare the clinical and dermoscopic patterns of scalp melanocytic nevi in patients ≤15 years of age and above, and to analyse their relevance to demographic features, atypical mole syndrome (AMS) and total body nevus count (TBNC).

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, the clinical data and dermoscopic images of patients with scalp melanocytic nevi were retrieved, reviewed and analysed.

Home participation, support and barriers among children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Objectives: Few studies have focused on the participation of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in daily routine and leisure activities. This study aimed to compare the participation, support and barriers for children with ADHD at home pre-COVID-19 and during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Methods: The study included 55 children with ADHD aged 6-11 years.

Correlation of hand functionality and grip strengths with anthropometric measurements.

Background: Using objective anthropometric measurement data and anthropometric ratios, grip strength and hand functionality can be evaluated.
