Physical Activity and Exercise among Children: Health Implications
According to the World Health Organization’s new recommendations on physical activity for children, regardless of living with disability or not, physical activity should be at least 60 minutes per day.

A healthy lifestyle, as being physically active, is normally set during childhood and adolescence, making children an important group to study and target. This Research Topic will address physiological health effects related to physical activity and exercise among children, regardless of living with disability or not, and how to assess these effects in a valid and reliable way. Children do not ...

Nephrotic Syndrome in Pediatric Patients
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) - characterized by heavy glomerular protein loss (proteinuria), edema, hypoalbuminemia, and hyperlipidemia - has diverse causes and frequently leads to chronic kidney disease. This E-book encompasses articles on a variety of topics in NS, including a historical perspective on understanding and treatment of NS, followed by state-of-the-art reviews of the molecular pathomechanisms, clinical outcomes, as well as current and emerging treatment strategies for NS. We hope that this comprehensive review will help to reduce the gaps between the research and the day-to-day care of patients with NS and inspire new research efforts towards updating and expanding the treatment armamentarium for the future.
Postural Control
Clinics in Developmental Medicine No. 179 The complex nature of the postural control system makes it vulnerable to adverse conditions during early life, such as prenatally or perinatally acquired lesions of the brain or preterm birth. Children with disorders of the developing brain nearly always have dysfunctions in postural control. The postural control system of children with other neurodevelopmental disabilities such as myelomeningocele or muscle disease is also challenged: it has to find age-specific solutions for the postural problems posed by the disorder. These postural problems have serious consequences for the activities of daily life, as adequate postural control is a prerequisite ...
