Fast facts-about-childrens-brain-development
The document discusses the importance of early childhood brain development. It notes that 60% of a baby's energy goes to brain development, which grows fastest in the first 3 years. Babies whose parents talk to them more know 300 more words by age 2. Social interaction and bonding with caregivers enhances learning and prepares children to handle stress. Reading aloud also stimulates brain growth, yet only 50% of infants are read to regularly. Floor time activities like talking and playing are the best ways to stimulate development.

Breastfeeding and ensuring adequate sleep are important for infant development and health. New mothers should exclusively breastfeed for the first six months as breast milk provides optimal nutrition and protects against disease. Babies typically need 10-20 hours of sleep per day and should not be disturbed at night to allow for healthy brain development. Taking care with breastfeeding and sleep, even if they seem easy, can significantly impact a baby's long-term growth and well-being.
Night terrors ages 10 20
Night terrors typically occur in children ages 10-20 during the first third of the night or even during naps, with symptoms like abrupt awakening from sleep, inability to communicate, fast breathing and heart rate, and sweating. Treatments include having the child use the bathroom during episodes, rearranging their bedroom furniture, and avoiding making the child feel stressed about the episodes. Potential causes are stress, certain medications, fatigue, sleep deprivation, head injuries, or irregular brain function.

Baby sleep problems
Most infants don't stay asleep from sundown to sunset for some reason. At times it very well may be because of an ailment or uneasiness as in colic.
Yet, a portion of the rest issues could be brought about by you! You don't do this deliberately, you just didn't have a clue. You most likely got exhortation from loved ones on the best way to tackle the evening time child rest issue.
Prenatal and newborn development
Key milestones in prenatal development include the formation of structures to support growth in the first two weeks, the development of the head, eyes, nose, ears and mouth between 3-8 weeks, and the completion of the physical structure and development of body systems from 9 weeks until birth. Newborns develop gross motor skills like sitting and crawling, fine motor skills such as holding a spoon, and sensory, language and social skills in their first year. Parents can support development by singing, reading, cuddling, and encouraging play to help children succeed in school and life.

These Five Facts About Children and Hearing Loss May Surprise You
Nearly 12% of children ages 6-19 have noise-induced hearing loss. Approximately 12,000 babies are born with hearing loss each year in the United States. Hearing loss can delay language development if not addressed early on. Some causes of hearing loss in children, like ear infections, are temporary if treated promptly but can become permanent if ignored. Early identification and treatment of hearing loss leads to better language outcomes for children. Permanent noise-induced hearing loss can be prevented by using hearing protection for loud noises. Parents should monitor their children for signs of hearing loss.

Physical growth refers to increases in height, weight, and other body changes as a child becomes larger through hair growth, teething, and puberty. During the first year, babies grow rapidly, typically increasing 10 inches in height and tripling their weight. After the first year, growth slows to around 2.5 inches per year until adolescence. Parents can support healthy growth by ensuring their child gets enough sleep, a balanced diet, and regular exercise while keeping lines of communication open and supporting their self-esteem. Most variations in growth and development are normal, but parents should see a doctor if truly concerned about their child's progress.
Oro motor stimulation for new born
This document discusses oro-motor stimulation and newborn oral development. It notes that sucking assists with pads of fat between the buccinators and masseter muscles. Sucking facilitates fleeing of clam, reduces heart rate, and elevates pain thresholds in mothers and babies. Non-nutritive sucking occurs when fluid is not introduced into the baby's mouth. Feeding difficulties can arise in children with respiratory, neurological, or heart conditions and can lead to malnutrition, failure to thrive, and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. The document provides techniques for oro-motor stimulation including stroking the cheek and lip, rubbing the palate and gums, and massaging under the chin.

Physical Growth and Motor Development
Physical growth and motor skill development are closely intertwined. The first two years of life are a period of rapid growth and development physically, from the newborn period through the active toddler and preschool years. Children’s growth and development is impacted by heredity, nutrition, illness, and environment.
TOPICS IN THIS LESSON INCLUDE:
· The effects of heredity and hormones on physical growth and health in early childhood
· The impact of nutrition on early childhood physical growth and health
· How infectious disease and immunizations impact early physical growth and health in early childhood
· Major milestones of gross‐ and fine‐motor development in early childhood
Effects of Heredity and Hormones
· ROLE OF HEREDITY

HORMONES

THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH)
The influence of heredity on physical growth is seen directly through the relationship between a child’s size and growth rate and those of his or her parents. A central mechanism is that of genes in producing growth hormones. Sleep is an important contributor as growth hormones are most actively released then.
Genes influence growth in a number of ways, including controlling the body’s production of hormones. Around 60 to 80 percent of height is determined by heredity; the other 20 to 40 percent is impacted by nutrition and other environmental factors. The pituitary gland at base of brain releases two essential growth hormones. These are

Physical Growth and Motor Development
Physical growth and motor skill development are closely intertwined. The first two years of life are a period of rapid growth and development physically, from the newborn period through the active toddler and preschool years. Children’s growth and development is impacted by heredity, nutrition, illness, and environment.
TOPICS IN THIS LESSON INCLUDE:
· The effects of heredity and hormones on physical growth and health in early childhood

Effects of Heredity and Hormones
· ROLE OF HEREDITY
· HORMONES
· GROWTH HORMONE
· THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE (TSH)
The influence of heredity on physical growth is seen directly through the relationship between a child’s size and growth rate and those of his or her parents. A central mechanism is that of genes in producing growth hormones. Sleep is an important contributor as growth hormones are most actively released then.
Genes influence growth in a number of ways, including controlling the body’s production of hormones. Around 60 to 80 percent of height is determined by heredity; the other 20 to 40 percent is impacted by nutrition and other environmental factors.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.share - Lions, tigers, AI and health misinformation, oh my!.pptx

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
