Article Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-based atopy care program (SACP) for children with atopic dermatitis (AD). The program is administered by health teachers who are also school nurses. The study compared groups using a pre- and post-test design. Participants were children with AD and their parents (98 dyads; 32 in the test group and 66 in the control group) sampled from four elementary schools in Seoul. After completing the SACP, parents in the test group had significantly increased knowledge of AD (p = .04) and a greater sense of parental efficacy (p = .02) when compared with the control group. This study derived guidelines that elementary health teachers can use in practice for school-aged children with AD. We concluded that there is sufficient evidence of effectiveness for the SACP to be used as a model for chronic disease management in school-aged children.

School of Journalism & Communication, Southwest University of Political Science and Law, Chongqing, 401120, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Increased subjective well-being (SWB) during adolescence significantly predicts higher levels of SWB, greater income, and more harmonious relationships in adulthood. However, addictive behaviors (including substance addictions and behavioral addictions) may trigger mental health problems, thereby adversely affecting adolescents' SWB. Therefore, this study aims to explore the mediating role of mental health problems in the process by which addictive behaviors affect adolescents' SWB.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder lacking objective biomarkers for early diagnosis. DNA methylation is a promising epigenetic marker, and machine learning offers a data-driven classification approach. However, few studies have examined whole-blood, genome-wide DNA methylation profiles for ASD diagnosis in school-aged children.

Objective: Children in the Gaza Strip have lived their entire lives with chronic economic and political insecurity punctuated by periodic escalations of overt combat. Clinicians need to learn how children raised in these conditions respond to escalations of threat. This study investigated the prevalence of stress and trauma-related symptoms and functional impairment among young Palestinian children following the May 2021 escalation in Gaza.
