“…Indeed, 41.3% of the parents in our study reported engaging in less physical activity than they did before the pandemic while 28.7% reported engaging in no physical activity. In a similar study, it was found that the parents of disabled children were inactive and did not have enough awareness about the necessity of physical activity (Tahmaz et al 2019 ). The awareness of parents on this issue is extremely important as it can be effective in raising awareness in children.…”

The family has a key role in the obesity management of children with autism. This study examines the relationship between the nutrition-physical activity behaviors of autistic children with their families and children’s obesity levels during covid-19 pandemic. The descriptive and cross-sectional study involved 80 parents of autistic children. A positive correlation was found between children’s mean BMI values before and during the pandemic(p = 0.000). Family Nutrition and Physical Activity Scale(FNPAS) and Brief Autism Mealtime Behavior Inventory(BAMBI) score were 55.18 ± 7.86 and 31.76 ± 8.79, respectively. In addition, it was found that 32.5% of the children ate more than before the pandemic, 50.0% engaged in less physical activity, and 16.3% didn’t do any physical activity. The study results suggesting the risk of obesity.

“…A person’s physical, social or intellectual disability affects not only the individual, but also the individual’s immediate environment and even the society in which they live. In society, those who are most affected by this situation are undoubtedly the caregivers, and the caregivers are most composed of mothers (Ören & Aydın, 2020 ; Tahmaz et al, 2019 ; WHO, 2020 ). In its general definition, caregiving includes supporting the individual physically, socially, emotionally or financially (Türken Gel & Tokur Keskin, 2017 ).…”

This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study aiming to reveal the relationship of gratitude and coping styles with depression in caregivers of children with special needs. As a result of the study, which was conducted with 330 caregivers, it was determined that the caregivers’ level of gratitude was high. In this study, it was found that the caregivers used mostly turning to religion, planning, positive reinterpretation, and instrumental social support as coping styles respectively. It was established that there was a significant correlation between caregivers’ depression level and gender, education level, level of gratitude, focus on and venting of emotions, substance use, behavioural disengagement, positive reinterpretation, using emotional social support and planning coping styles. The depression disclosure level was found to be 17.8%. For holistic nursing care, the assessment of spiritual care and spiritual needs of caregivers is very important because of its positive effect on mental health.

Purpose The study aimed to investigate the relationship between voiding disorders, functional independence, and quality of life, according to the gross motor function classification system, in children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 8–17. Methods A total of 102 individuals (aged 8–17) with CP were included in the study. The Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Scoring System (DVISS), Wee Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM), and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) were used to evaluate the clinical parameters. Results There is a statistically significant difference in DVISS (p = 0.010), WeeFIM (p = 0.001), and PedsQL (p = 0.001) scores of individuals with CP regarding GMFCS. According to the CP classification, there is a statistically significant difference between WeeFIM (p = 0.001) and PedsQL (p = 0.020) scores. Besides, there is a significant difference between DVISS (p = 0.048), WeeFIM (p = 0.001) and PedsQL (p = 0.001) according to the ambulation status of individuals with CP. On the other hand, there is a positive moderate, statistically significant correlation between WeeFIM and PedsQL scores (ρ = 0.306, r = 0.002). A moderately negative statistically significant relationship exists between PedsQL and DVISS (ρ = −0.266, r = 0.007). A negative, moderate, statistically significant correlation was shown between DVISS and WeeFIM scores (ρ = −0.323, r = 0.001). Conclusions As the gross motor functional level of individuals with CP increased, voiding dysfunction increased; on the other hand, functional independence and quality of life decreased.
