Book excerpt: Contexte :Le surpoids et l'obésité de l'enfant et de l'adolescent constituent un problème de santé publique majeur pour lequel la mise en place de politiques de santé a permis de stabiliser la prévalence depuis plusieurs années. Les médecins généralistes sont les premiers intervenants pour dépister et prendre en charge cette pathologie complexe. Ils sont cependant peu nombreux à s'investir et font face à des difficultés. Notre travail a cherché à identifier les besoins des médecins généralistes pour réaliser le dépistage et la prise en charge des enfants et adolescents en surpoids ou obèses. Méthode : Une enquête qualitative suivant la méthodologie des focus group a été réalisée entre décembre 2014 et avril 2015 auprès de 14 médecins généralistes des Alpes Maritimes répartis en 3 groupes. Résultats : L'analyse des données recueillies a mis en évidence quatre besoins nécessaires pour optimiser le dépistage et la prise en charge du surpoids et de l'obésité en pédiatrie. Les médecins généralistes ont besoin de motivation pour débuter une prise en charge et affronter les différentes difficultés. Ne pouvant agir seul, ils ont besoin d'un investissement de la famille du patient. Pour mener à bien la prise en charge, une certaine organisation pratique est nécessaire qui regroupe notamment, la nécessité d'avoir du temps, et certains outils facilement accessibles et exploitables. Dans les cas les plus difficiles la collaboration avec des professionnels spécialisés est intéressante mais doit être facilitée. Perspectives : Depuis notre travail, il a été créé une adresse mail dédiée à disposition des médecins généralistes pour communiquer avec le centre spécialisé de l'obésité. Ce document pourra être complété par différents outils au cours d'un prochain travail de recherche puis testé auprès des médecins généralistes afin de définir s'il correspond à leurs attentes.
Download or read book Obesity written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2000 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report issues a call for urgent action to combat the growing epidemic of obesity, which now affects developing and industrialized countries alike. Adopting a public health approach, the report responds to both the enormity of health problems associated with obesity and the notorious difficulty of treating this complex, multifactorial disease. With these problems in mind, the report aims to help policy-makers introduce strategies for prevention and management that have the greatest chance of success. The importance of prevention as the most sensible strategy in developing countries, where obesity coexists with undernutrition, is repeatedly emphasized. Recommended lines of action, which reflect the consensus reached by 25 leading authorities, are based on a critical review of current scientific knowledge about the causes of obesity in both individuals and populations. While all causes are considered, major attention is given to behavioural and societal changes that have increased the energy density of diets, overwhelmed sophisticated regulatory systems that control appetite and maintain energy balance, and reduced physical activity. Specific topics discussed range from the importance of fat content in the food supply as a cause of population-wide obesity, through misconceptions about obesity held by both the medical profession and the public, to strategies for dealing with the alarming prevalence of obesity in children. "... the volume is clearly written, and carries a wealth of summary information that is likely to be invaluable for anyone interested in the public health aspects of obesity and fatness, be they students, practitioner or researcher." - Journal of Biosocial Science

Download or read book Le surpoids chez l enfant et l adolescent written by Danielle Soulié and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En quelques années, l'obésité infantile est devenue un véritable problème de santé publique. En France, en 1980, 6 % des enfants de 5 à 12 ans souffraient d'obésité. Ils étaient 10 % en 1990, et en 2003, 13 à 15 %. On estime que 80 % d'entre eux le resteront à l'âge adulte. Quand on sait les complications médicales que peut entraîner un surpoids important, la nécessité de prévenir cette maladie pour préserver l'avenir de nos enfants paraît urgente. Pourtant, beaucoup de parents se sentent désemparés face aux problèmes de poids de leur enfant, et souvent n'en prennent pas la pleine mesure. Ce guide a donc plusieurs objectifs : permettre aux parents de mieux connaître et comprendre les origines du surpoids et de l'obésité, les facteurs d'aggravation, et les différents recours ; les aider et les orienter dans le choix des traitements afin que le surpoids de leur enfant puisse être pris en charge le plus rapidement et le plus efficacement possible. Et enfin leur donner les outils pour assister leur enfant dans l'acceptation de soi, sans laquelle il ne sera, même s'il maigrit, jamais épanoui. Dans Réponses à vos questions sur le surpoids chez l'enfant et l'adolescent, le Dr Danielle Soulié s'adresse aux parents soucieux de venir en aide à leur enfant. En explicitant les causes, le diagnostic et les traitements possibles, elle ouvre à chacun la voie de la guérison, que ce soit pour inverser le processus de l'obésité ou pour prévenir son apparition prochaine chez les enfants simplement en surpoids.
Download or read book Combining Aesthetic and Psychological Approaches to TV Series Addiction written by Sébastien Lefait and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book establishes, and then analyses, the interrelation between series and dependence by focusing on two aspects of their connection: the overconsumption of TV series, and the production devices that lead to it. Due to its two-sided nature, the volume brings together specialists from different backgrounds. On the one hand, it involves people working with addiction, such as psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers, whose analytical tools and statistics are extremely useful in assessing the prevalence of TV series addiction, as well as its consequences, in order to make sense of its mechanics. For similar reasons, the authors also include professionals working with children and teenagers, since youths under 18 are largely affected by addictive tendencies. On the other hand, other contributions here are authored by TV series specialists, producers and scriptwriters, as well as academics in the fields of film and TV series studies, cultural studies, and narratology. Their specific perspectives on the topic help better understand what it is about the construction or reception of TV series that aims to create, maintain, amplify, or, on the contrary, curb their ingrained addictive effects.

Download or read book Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well Being written by Yasser Khazaal and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

Book excerpt: This Atlas provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the historical and current perspectives on osteoarthritis, including the pathophysiology and epidemiology of the disease. Written by leading authors in the field of osteoarthritis, the book discusses classification, etiology and risk factors for osteoarthritis, the disease course and determinants of osteoarthritis progression, clinical features and diagnosis as well as imaging methods to assess joint damage. The Atlas of Osteoarthritis concludes with the latest treatment updates including both nonpharmacological and pharmacological treatments, as well as surgical recommendations for patients with the disease. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of joint disease causing joint pain, stiffness, and physical disability among adults. It is an important issue for both the individual and society with its impact on public health continuing to grow as a result of the aging population, the rising prevalence of obesity, and the lack of definitive treatments to prevent or halt the progress of the disease.

This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullying has long been tolerated as a rite of passage among children and adolescents. There is an implication that individuals who are bullied must have "asked for" this type of treatment, or deserved it. Sometimes, even the child who is bullied begins to internalize this idea. For many years, there has been a general acceptance and collective shrug when it comes to a child or adolescent with greater social capital or power pushing around a child perceived as subordinate. But bullying is not developmentally appropriate; it should not be considered a normal part of the typical social grouping that occurs throughout a child's life. Although bullying behavior endures through generations, the milieu is changing. Historically, bulling has occurred at school, the physical setting in which most of childhood is centered and the primary source for peer group formation. In recent years, however, the physical setting is not the only place bullying is occurring. Technology allows for an entirely new type of digital electronic aggression, cyberbullying, which takes place through chat rooms, instant messaging, social media, and other forms of digital electronic communication. Composition of peer groups, shifting demographics, changing societal norms, and modern technology are contextual factors that must be considered to understand and effectively react to bullying in the United States. Youth are embedded in multiple contexts and each of these contexts interacts with individual characteristics of youth in ways that either exacerbate or attenuate the association between these individual characteristics and bullying perpetration or victimization. Recognizing that bullying behavior is a major public health problem that demands the concerted and coordinated time and attention of parents, educators and school administrators, health care providers, policy makers, families, and others concerned with the care of children, this report evaluates the state of the science on biological and psychosocial consequences of peer victimization and the risk and protective factors that either increase or decrease peer victimization behavior and consequences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’obésité des enfants, que le corps médical appelle l’obésité pédiatrique, est un problème de santé publique qui a atteint des proportions épidémiques mondiales, mais qui est encore sous-diagnostiqué, sous-prévenu et insuffisamment traité. L’obésité pédiatrique a plus que doublé chez les enfants et quadruplé chez les adolescents au cours des trois dernières décennies. On a récemment estimé que 50 % des enfants aux États-Unis et 33 % en Europe ont un problème de surpoids. Entre 2009 et 2011, au Canada, 32 % des enfants et des jeunes Canadiens de 5 à 17 ans présentaient de l’embonpoint ou de l’obésité. Cet ouvrage est le résultat d’une synthèse des recherches les plus récentes portant sur la prévention et le traitement de l’obésité pédiatrique. Causes et conséquences, diagnostics et interventions, tous les sujets sont abordés sans détour et dans un langage accessible. Au fil des pages, une voie d’avenir se dessine clairement: pour accompagner les jeunes vers un changement d’habitudes et de comportements, pour leur transférer peu à peu la responsabilité de leur bilan de santé, il faudra l’étroite collaboration des parents, des médecins de famille, pédiatres, spécialistes en médecine et autres professionnels: infirmières, diététistes (nutritionnistes), kinésiologues et psychologues.
