“…Therefore, masturbation in children may cause parental concern in traditional societies more than in western societies, and of course, visits to the doctor may be more commonplace (12). Previous studies have reported the prevalence of this behavior in girls more than boys (7, 9, 12); however, in our study, the amount of masturbation in boys was more than in girls, which can be caused by higher rates of visits to the clinic by boys. In addition, most of the case reports have also mentioned age of onset of masturbation prior to the two years, and some studies have reported an age under one year as age of onset (2–6, 9–11); however, in our survey the masturbation cases have had patients more than two years of age.…”

BackgroundThe main source of information about children’s masturbation is more on the basis of case reports. Due to the lack of consistent and accurate information.ObjectiveThis study aimed to determine prevalence and underlying factors of masturbation and its comorbidity with psychiatric disorders in children.MethodsIn this descriptive-analytical study, among the children referred to the Pediatrics Clinic of Psychiatric Ward, Golestan Hospital, Ahvaz, Southwest Iran, 98 children were selected by convenience sampling in 2014. Disorders were diagnosed by clinical interview based on the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Psychiatric Disorders (DSM-IV) and the Child Symptom Inventory-4 (CSI-4). We also used a questionnaire, containing demographic information about the patient and their family and also other data. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-square test with SPSS software version 16.ResultsOf the children who participated in this study (most of whom were boys), 31.6% suffered from masturbation. The phobias (p=0.002), separation anxiety disorder (p=0.044), generalized anxiety disorder (p=0.037), motor tics (p=0.033), stress disorder (p=0.005), oppositional defiant disorder (p=0.044), thumb sucking (p=0.000) and conduct disorder (p=0.001) were associated with masturbation.ConclusionMasturbation was common in children referred to psychiatric clinic, and may be more associated with oppositional defiant disorder, or conduct disorder, some anxiety disorders, motor tics and other stereotypical behavior. Authors recommended more probing for psychiatric disorders in children with unusual sexual behavior.

“…PVCs have also been incorporated into teaching and learning in a number of other specialties, including general paediatrics,6 7 child psychiatry8 and primary care 9. Additionally, careful analysis of a series of PVCs illustrating specific disorders has expanded our knowledge about clinical presentations, particularly in paediatric neurology, for example, in epilepsy,10 11 movement disorders12 and neuromuscular diseases 13…”

Patient video cases (PVCs) are brief video recordings of patients during spontaneous or instructed activity. PVCs are true to life and can be replayed, enabling the establishment of highly interactive, contextual and safe learning environments, with a minimum of facilitation. This article describes the use of workshops in which PVCs are used to assist with the development of observational skills and clinical reasoning in medical students and postgraduates. We describe why PVCs are a valuable addition to an educator's portfolio of resources, what evidence there is for their effectiveness, how to use videos for teaching, and some practical advice and tips on their collection and storage.

“…According to Nordli et al (1997), infantile seizures are often so subtle that even skilled observers may fail to identify the seizures correctly. Moreover, some of these movement patterns occur only occasionally, are short-term and subtle, and therefore not salient compared to other movements or characteristics of the infant (Hansen and Balslev 2009). As a result, an infant's epileptic seizures may easily be mistaken for normal behaviour (Egger et al 2003;Hansen and Balslev 2009) or attributed to other disorders (Nordli 2002).…”
