Study on the Impact of Breastfeeding to Cognitive Functions in 5 Years Old Children| Chapter 9 | Current Overview on Science and Technology Research Vol. 9

 Two groups of five-old age-old offsprings born in the stained Karvina district and the control commune of eské Budejovice were researched to determine the effect of breastfeeding on intelligent development. The adolescents were born in the age 2013 and 2014. From mothers' surveys, news about nursing was assembled. Psychological and cognitive estimates were conducted utilizing the Raven Colored Progressive Matrices (RCPM) and the Bender Visual Motor Gestalt Test (BG test). Mothers engaged in the study provided us accompanying information concerning social atmosphere of the family, breastfeeding and consuming habits, and child´s record of what happened. The findings indicate a beneficial impact of breastfeeding for six months or more interminable on cognitive development in five-period-old youth. When compared to the judgments of the RCPM exam, that measures problem-solving talents, this effect was more significant in the BG test results, that focused on optic-motor abilities.

Determining the Effect of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Exposure on Cognitive Development in 5 Years Old Children: A Case Study in the Czech Republic | Chapter 8 | Recent Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 10

 Background: In many Asian cultures, standing on the floor rather than sitting in a chair is preferred. Squatting and cross-legged sitting on the ground are common among the Indian population's traditional practises and daily duties. Squatting is a closed kinetic activity that involves several joint movements.

The goal of the study was to evaluate the functional end-ranges of the hip, knee, and ankle joints in healthy Indian volunteers in common ADL situations such as squatting and cross-legged sitting.

Methods: A total of 66 healthy participants, ranging in age from 30 to 50 years, were recruited from rural and urban populations. The Universal Goniometer was used to quantify joint ROM in the lower extremities. Squat and cross-legged stances were required of all subjects, which were graded.

The individuals in cross leg sitting grade 2 (independent CLS) had hip flexion ranges of 1150, hip abduction ranges of 410, hip external rotation ranges of 420, and ankle plantar flexion ranges of 460, p0.005. Grade 2 (independent squat) had hip flexion ranges of 1130, p>0.005, knee flexion ranges of 1200, p>0.005, and ankle dorsiflexion ranges of 150, p0.005.

Conclusion: The findings imply that squatting and cross-leg sitting several times a day can help prevent the early closure of lower limb end ranges. It's critical to understand why ranges are limited, as this has implications for clinical practise. By acknowledging such factors, future investigations may be piloted with a deeper knowledge.
