“…Los problemas más evidentes son los asociados a la salud mental como la autoestima y la ansiedad (27). Varios factores estresantes y de alto riesgo se vinculan con el empeoramiento tanto de la ansiedad y la baja autoestima en el transcurso de la pandemia, por la presencia de la enfermedad en algunos integrantes de la familia, complicaciones financieras, discusiones familiares, el consumo excesivo de alcohol en los padres (28).…”

La aparición del Covid-19, genero una serie de medidas para contrarrestar la propagación a nivel mundial, el confinamiento y el distanciamiento social sirvieron en gran parte para minimizar el impacto, sin embargo, el asilamiento genero en la población un alto índice de violencia intrafamiliar y el aparecimiento de niveles bajos de autoestima. Por lo antes mencionado es importante analizar el nivel de violencia intrafamiliar y autoestima en los estudiantes debido a la pandemia. La metodología utilizada para la muestra es estratificada, con la fórmula de la muestra finita, el empleo de un software estadístico SPSS para evaluar la relevancia de las preguntas, y escalas de medición para medir la autoestima y la violencia intrafamiliar en los estudiantes de la Unidad Educativa Huasimpamba. En la investigación se evidencio que todas las preguntas son relevantes en los dos cuestionarios, puesto que, el pvalor es mayor que 0.05. Además, que el 2.2 % tiene un alto nivel de violencia intrafamiliar y un 49.4 % tienen una elevada autoestima. En varias investigaciones desarrolladas enmarcadas en la situación de la pandemia, mostró que las secuelas provenientes de la cuarentena son la violencia doméstica, los trastornos mentales como la baja autoestima.

“…La escala se distribuye en 4 puntos críticos, muy de acuerdo, de acuerdo, desacuerdo y por último muy en desacuerdo. Así mismo, los rangos están determinados por el grado de autoestima sean estos: elevada (26-40), media (26)(27)(28)(29), autoestima baja menor a 25.…”

“…Anxiety disorders are the largest group of mental disorders in the Western world (Craske et al , 2017), with a 20% lifetime occurrence (Meier & Deckert, 2019). The COVID pandemic has been accompanied by yet a greater number of anxiety cases (Walsh et al , 2021), highlighting the need to explore the origins of infection-induced anxiety and seek ways to treat these devastating disorders and the Long COVID symptoms (Sudre et al , 2021). Intriguingly, anxiety disorders have often been found to be positively linked to obesity and the metabolic syndrome (characterized by three of the following five symptoms - type II diabetes, hyperlipidemia, high LDL, low HDL and hypertension (Huang, 2009)); this is the case in humans (Van Reedt Dortland et al , 2013; Tang et al , 2017), rats (Dutheil et al , 2016), mice (Xia et al , 2021; Almeida-Suhett et al , 2017; Meydan et al , 2016) and adult zebrafish (Türkoğlu et al , 2022; Picolo et al , 2021).…”

Anxiety disorders often associate with metabolic impairments, but the underlying developmental and molecular mechanisms are yet unknown. To seek RNAs that may link anxiety and obesity, we subjected RNA from zebrafish larvae of a caffeine-induced anxiety model and a high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity model to RNA-sequencing. We found differentially expressed genes in the larval anxiety and obesity models, including long noncoding RNAs and transfer fragment RNAs. Surprisingly, they were inversely regulated and comprised overrepresentation of immune system pathways, e.g., interleukin signaling and inflammation. Similarly, inverse regulation persisted in adulthood, but with different overrepresented immune system processes, e.g., T cell activation, leukocyte cell-cell adhesion and antigen processing and presentation. Furthermore, unlike the known link in adult zebrafish, obesity in zebrafish larvae was not accompanied by anxiety-like behavior. These results may reflect an antagonistic pleiotropic phenomenon involving re-adjusted modulation of the anxiety-metabolic links with the immune system. Furthermore, the HFD potential to normalize the anxiety-upregulated immune-related genes may explain previously reported protective roles of high fat diet in rodent anxiety and Alzheimer's disease models.

“…A systematic review estimated the economic impact of child and adolescent mental health disorders at $201 billion dollars in the United States in 2016, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic [1]; and literature cites the pandemic as a significant factor in rising anxiety rates in pediatric populations. During the pandemic, anxiety prevalence rates were estimated at between 18.9 and 23.87% in children and 15.4 and 39.9% in adolescents [2]. The toll of the pandemic contributed to a collaborative declaration by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) and Children's Hospital Association (CHA) regarding a national state of emergency in children's mental health in America [3].…”

Background:In 2021, leading pediatric healthcare organizations declared a national state of emergency in children's mental health in America. Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions affecting pediatric populations. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5 th edition, recommends objective measurement of pediatric anxiety for evaluation of symptomatology and treatment response. The objective of this review was to summarize recommendations and resources for measuring pediatric anxiety, and to quantify and characterize utilization of outcome measures for generalized anxiety in pediatric psychiatry. Methods:A literature review of PubMed, last searched on August 22, 2022, was conducted. Results were reviewed for use of objective rating scales for measurement of generalized anxiety by mental healthcare professionals in pediatric populations. Full text case reports and observational studies in English over the past 10 years were included. Clinical trials were excluded with the intention of focusing on real-world practice.Results: Seventeen studies were identified for inclusion, most of which were conducted in Europe. There was minimal repetition in rating scale selection between studies. Many studies were prospective in nature, suggesting that anxiety rating scales may have been implemented for study purposes, rather than as routine practice.Conclusions: These findings represent an essential step toward understanding how and to what extent anxiety rating scales are utilized in pediatric psychiatry and where quality improvement initiatives may be needed. The limited number of studies identified for inclusion suggests a potential need for increased utilization of objective rating scales, especially in light of the youth mental health crisis. There appears to be a lack of consensus regarding which measurement tools are most ideal. Education, training, and further research are warranted to optimize utilization of measurement-based care for generalized anxiety in pediatric psychiatry settings and to determine which scales are optimal for use in this context.
