Baby watching TV

Approximately 40 percent of children aged three months and 90 percent of children 24 months regularly watch television, movies or videos, according to a report in the May issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.

The health implications of television and video viewing are potentially large. There are both theoretical and empirical reasons to believe that the effects of exposure to the media in the development of children are more likely to be adverse before the age of 30 months later, the authors note. Recent studies suggest that children under two years, if you are alone or with one parent may be important for their vocabulary development.

Frederick J. Zimmerman, Ph.D., University of Washington, Seattle, and colleagues conducted a telephone survey to 1,009 parents of children aged 2 to 24 months. The study analyzed four television and DVD categories of content: education of children, child non-educational, baby DVDs and adult television (such as talk shows or sports programming). I collect average daily viewing parents gave reasons for your child’s vision, if present during viewing and socio-demographic factors was collected.

5 words that all babies say

For millions of sleep-deprived mothers around the world, the results of this woman could be a miracle! Priscilla Dunstan, a mom with a special gift, says he is open the secret language of babies.

Five words that all babies from 0 to 3 months of age they say, regardless of race and culture:

Neh = “I have hunger”
OWH = “I have a dream”
Heh = “I’m experiencing discomfort”
EAIR = “I have gas”
Eh = “I have to burp”

These “words” are actually sound reflexes, Priscilla says. “The babies around the world has the same reflexes, and therefore make the same sounds,” he says. If parents do not respond to reflexes, Priscilla says the baby finally stop using them.

Priscilla recommends that parents listen to these words in a baby before it starts mourn to mourn hysterically. She says there is a sound that is harder to hear than others because it varies by individual. She also says some babies use some words more than others, simply need to pay close attention, is a sign announcing the problem.

Future challenges

Obese children from 3 years and have elevated levels of C-reactive protein, this is a marker of inflammation that in adults is considered an indicator of possible heart disease, according to a study by the School of Medicine, University of North Carolina North (USA) published in the journal Pediatrics.

This study found that obese children with these markers of inflammation, the rate of saturation of ferritin / transferrin (F / T) and absolute neutrophil count (ANC). Elevated levels of F / T began at the age of 6 years and the rise of the ANC at age 9.

According to the director of the study, “These findings were a surprise” for them.
The director explains that most adults understand that being overweight or obese is not good for them, but many are unaware that being overweight is also unhealthy for young children.

In the group of children who were tested, nearly 70 percent of them had a healthy weight, 15 percent were overweight, 11 percent were obese and 3.5 percent were extremely obese.
Among the largest age difference is even more marked.

The study concludes that the weight and elevated inflammatory markers are closely linked and that even in young children.
And that future research should avoid these problems as children, taking into account that it must make decisions such as examining the impact of low-grade inflammation in the small long-term overweight and obese.
