- Abstract
Uvod: Poznato je da tjelesna aktivnost snižava arterijski tlak (AT) i smanjuje kardiovaskularni rizik putem brojnih mehanizama. No, visoki AT je često odstupanje na sistematskim pregledima sportaša. Usprkos tome, podaci o prevalenciji arterijske hipertenzije (HTN) u sportaša nedostaju, osobito u mladih sportaša. Studijom smo ispitali prevalenciju visokog AT u adolescentnih sportaša na sportskom sistematskom pregledu. Obzirom da se uz porast prevalencije, debljina u djece sve više prepoznaje kao jedan od najvažnijih rizičnih čimbenika za razvoj HTN, analizirali smo i povezanost visokog AT s prekomjernom tjelesnom masom (TM) u grupi mladih, zdravih sportaša. Ispitanici i metode: U istraživanju su sudjelovala 64 muška adolescentna sportaša i to 37 nogometaša i 27 sportaša borilačkih vještina. Medijan dobi sportaša je bio 16,5 godina (raspon 14-18 godina). Intenzitet treniranja i duljina treniranja među sportašima su bili različiti. Antropometrijski pokazatelji i AT su mjereni prema standardnim protokolima na probirnom pregledu u sportskoj ambulanti, od strane licenciranog specijaliste sportske medicine. Arterijski tlak je mjeren validiranim živinim manometrom. U slučaju izmjerenog povišenog AT, mjerenje je ponovljeno, a sistolički AT (SAT) i dijastolički AT (DAT) su zabilježeni kao prosjek dvaju mjerenja. Prema preporukama International Pediatric Hypertension Association (IPHA), vrijednosti AT su kategorizirane kao centile za spol, dob i tjelesnu visinu. Povišeni AT je definiran sistoličkom i/ili dijastoličkom vrijednošću jednakom ili većom od 90. centile. Prekomjerna TM je definirana indeksom tjelesne mase (ITM) jednakim ili većim od 85. centile. Podaci su analizirani deskriptivnom statistikom i Pearsonovim χ2 testom za nezavisne uzorke, a za zavisne uzorke je korištena Yatesova korekcija. Rezultati: Prevalencija povišenog AT u nogometaša je bila 40,5 % (15/37), a u sportaša borilačkih vještina 55,6 % (15/27). Prekomjerna TM nađena je u 13,5 % (5/37) nogometaša i 33,3 % (9/27) sportaša borilačkih vještina (χ2 = 3,588; p=0,058). Nađena je pozitivna povezanost između prekomjerne TM i povišenog AT (χ2 = 10,23; p=0,0014). Zaključak: Djelatnici koji rade s djecom i adolescentima trebaju biti upozoreni da je debljina jedan od glavnih rizičnih čimbenika za visoki AT. Imajući na umu zdravstvene rizike povezane s preuhranjenošću i debljinom, tjelesna masa se ne bi trebala promicati i podrazumijevati na način kako je to uobičajeno u određenim sportovima i pozicijama u timu.

- Abstract
Chronically ill children nowdays in developed countries are more prevalent than before, and thanks to modern therapeutic modalities more children are surviving into adulthood. Increased survival cannot be assumed to be associated with increased quality of life. With the chronically ill child holistic approach is important, which incorporates not only realisation of the highest possible standards in diagnostics and treatment, but also special care for disease prevention. All this is very important in so called integrative approach in the care of a chronically ill child, with the aim of achieving as high as possible quality of life and complete social integration. At the 14th Preventive Pediatrics Symposium, which took place in Skrad, June 1' 2013, from preventive standpoint, the following chronic childhood illnesses were discussed: attention deficit hyperactivity disorder--ADHD, migraine, thyroid gland diseases, leukemia, cystic fibrosis, chronic renal disease, chronic inflammatory liver disease, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and chronic otitis media with effusion. It is emphasized that talking about a disease prevention, there are three levels of it--primary, second- ary and tertiary prevention: how to avoid occurrence of disease, how to diagnose and treat existent disease in early stages, before it causes significant morbidity, and finally how to reduce the negative impact of existent disease by restoring function and reducing disease-related complications--how to improve quality of life of children with chronic diseases. Quaternary prevention describes methods to mitigate or avoid results of unnecessary or excessive interventions of the health system. An important process is also transition of care from child-oriented to adult-oriented care. Adults with chronic health conditions should continue to be evaluated periodically for possible late consequences of their childhood illness and previ- ous medical treatments. more...

- Abstract
Chronic diseases in childhood have become an important priority, especially in developed countries, because of higher prevalence, relatively and absolutely. Besides that, inappropriate procedures a chronically ill child can result in child's growth and development disorder. According to literature data, 15-20% of children have chronic disease with the impact on their physical, mental and emotional status. Disease prevention strategies are described at the primary, secondary and tertiary level: how to avoid occurrence of disease, how to diagnose and treat existent disease in early stages, before it causes significant morbidity, and finally how to reduce negative impact of existent disease by restoring function and reducing disease-related complications - how to improve quality of life of children with chronic diseases. The new term of quaternary prevention describes methods to mitigate or avoid results of unnecessary or excessive interventions in the health system. In this paper the authors present recent attitudes about chronic diseases prevention modalities in childhood, which, at the beggining of the 21st century, have become more intriguing and represent a new challenge for pediatric health care. Thus, from preventive standpoint, the following chronic illnesses are discussed: asthma, malignant diseases, autism, epilepsy, cerebral palsy, tuberculosis, diabetes type 1, congenital heart diseases, arterial hypertension, celiac disease, and eating disorders. These emphases are from the 13th Preventive Pediatrics Symposium, which took place in Skrad, June 2nd, 2012. Further activities are planned with the aim of continuation of health care furtherance for children with other chronic illnesses. more...

- Abstract
Successful breastfeeding is not an automatism. Like other behavioral models, breastfeeding experience is forwarded from generation to generation. To analyze the influence of previous generation on offspring's breastfeeding. Research was carried out in three general pediatric offices in Croatian towns: Sibenik, Varazdin and Zagreb. Examinees were mothers of preschoolers older than 1 year, and totally 300 mothers were comprised by the questionnaires. Mothers who had been breastfed for longer period (more than 6 mo.) statistically significantly more frequently breastfeed their children over 6 months (chi 2 = 10.4; p = 0.0013), in comparison with mothers who had been breastfed for shorter period (up to 6 mo.). There is no significant difference in children breastfeeding duration (up to 6 mo. vs more than 6 mo.) with regard to whether the mothers lived in autonomous housekeeping, or if they lived in common housekeeping with their mothers, or mothers-in-law (chi 2 = 0.303; p = 0.86; d. f. = 2). The influence of examinees' mothers on decision to breastfeed is more frequently positive (63%) than neutral or negative, while, at the same time, positive influence on decision to breastfeed was exerted by significantly smaller number (40%) of mothers-in-law (chi 2 = 27.87; p < 0.001). The strongest influence on mother's decision to breastfeed was exerted by mass media. In the age of nuclear families, health workers should offer more support to breastfeeding mothers with the aim of achieving successful lactation. more...
