“…According to a report submitted by the Indonesian Ministry of Health (Syarifah, Widjiartini, Sarumpaet Sori muda, 2012) said that diet is a very important behavior that can affect a person's nutritional status. This is because the quantity and quality of food intake consumed by a person can affect that person's nutrition so that it can cause health problems such as stress and disruption of children's sleep patterns (Bai et al, 2022). Based on Table 4 the results can be that the majority of the diet is adequate with normal nutritional status as many as 36 children (53.7%).…”

“…There is increasing evidence in the literature that COVID-19 may have a negative effect on mental illness in healthy patients and populations. The unprecedented changes brought about by COVID-19, such as social isolation, school closures, and family stress, are negatively impacting people's mental health, especially children (Bai et al, 2022).…”

Monitoring the nutritional status of children at the West Nias Health Office is carried out twice a year in February and August. Monitoring was carried out to determine the nutritional status of children in every region in West Nias Regency and to find out some descriptions of the prevalence of children's nutritional status with several indicators. Indicators that can be used to determine the nutritional status of children in the area can be seen from indicators of children's weight according to age (W/A), indicators according to height for age (TB/U), and indicators of weight according to height (BB/TB). According to the local Health Office, the highest prevalence of malnutrition is in West Nias Regency, reaching 9.89%. From the data above, it has been shown that before the COVID-19 pandemic that occurred in the world and in Indonesia itself, nutritional problems that occurred in children were still high, especially coupled with the occurrence of cases of the spread of COVID-19 that had occurred in various countries around the world. The impact caused by the COVID-19 pandemic will be malnutrition due to various reasons, including: (1) poor diet due to declining finances, (2) non-standard nutrition, low level of hygiene, low access to health, and high spread of disease. This research is a research method approach Crossectional. The research sample is 67 people.

COVID-19 outbreak caused severe disruptions in daily life, partly due to limitations implemented to prevent the spreading. In France, it included school closures during a national lockdown, then a reopening of schools, with access depending on viral status of students and teachers. Those changes had an impact on children's mental health. We conducted an online cross-sectional study using a parental self-administered survey in December 2021 to explore the emotional and behavioral changes (EBC) during this 5th wave (W5) and retrospectively since the first one (W1) in their children and their multidimensionality with principal factor analysis (PCA) and stability analysis. Out of 4552 parent responders, 62.4% (n = 2839) noticed negative EBC during W1 and 54.1% (n = 2462) during W5 of the pandemic. Only 10.0% of the responders noticed negative EBC at W1 but not during the W5. In younger children (3–6 years old) with significant EBC, PCA revealed three main dimensions at W1 and W5: restlessness, depression and anxiety. In older children (7–13 years old), PCA showed partially similar dimensions: depression-suicidality, anxiety and withdrawal. Almost all correlations between dimensions at W1 and W5 were significantly positive. Every EBC was stable across waves, except for one. Recall bias concerning the EBC during W1 and lack of data concerning parental mental health should be taken into account. Our stability analysis found a strong correlation between dimensions at W1 and W5. Our results highlighted the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on children's mental health and the predictive aspect of its early deterioration.

Adolescents with Neuropsychiatric Disorders during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Focus on Emotional Well-Being and Parental Stress

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

(1) Introduction: The aim of our research was to explore emotional/behavioral changes in adolescents with neuropsychiatric conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic, and parental stress levels through a standardized assessment, comparing the data collected before and during the first months of lockdown. Moreover, an additional goal was to detect a possible relationship between emotional/behavioural symptoms of adolescents and the stress levels of their parents. (2) Methods: We enrolled 178 Italian adolescents aged between 12–18 that were referred to the Child Neuropsychiatry Unit of the University Hospital of Salerno with different neuropsychiatric diagnoses. Two standardized questionnaires were provided to all parents for the assessment of parental stress (PSI-Parenting Stress Index-Short Form) and the emotional/behavioral problems of their children (Child Behaviour Check List). The data collected from questionnaires administered during the six months preceding the pandemic, as is our usual clinical practice, were compared to those recorded during the pandemic. (3) Results: The statistical comparison of PSI and CBCL scores before/during the pandemic showed a statistically significant increase in all subscales in the total sample. The correlation analysis highlighted a significant positive relationship between Parental Stress and Internalizing/Externalizing symptoms of adolescent patients. Age and gender did not significantly affect CBCL and PSI scores, while the type of diagnosis could affect behavioral symptoms and parental stress. (4) Conclusions: our study suggests that the lockdown and the containment measures adopted during the COVID-19 pandemic could have aggravated the emotional/behavioral symptoms of adolescents with neuropsychiatric disorders and the stress of their parents. Further studies should be conducted in order to monitor the evolution of these aspects over time.
