Abstract	Obesity represents a worldwide leading health problem. Although the proportion of adolescent obesity is continuously rising, yet little is known considering adolescent's opinions regarding this condition.To investigate adolescent's perceptions in relation to various aspects of obesity in a prospective cohort study.The study population included primary school adolescents, 11-12 years of age. Anthropometric measurements of participants included height and weight. Overweight and obese participants were classified using the International Obesity Task Force criteria. A structured questionnaire assessing physical activity, dietary habits, parental guidance regarding dietary intake and psychological aspects in relation to social functioning, body weight and image was completed by each adolescent.Three hundred and thirty-five adolescents (181 boys) formed the study group. Obese participants were found to have significantly fewer friends (p=.050) and preferred indoor sedentary activities (p=.041). No differences were observed within the groups when questioned about their eating habits in terms of appetite and hunger. The majority of participants reported frequent consumption of homemade snacks in school resulting in no significant difference within the groups. Finally, body weight satisfaction was recorded for only 5.66% of the obese children, 25.66% and 68.64% of overweight and normal-weight participants respectively.Our findings support the notion that adolescents are perfectly capable of expressing their opinions. When planning interventional programs for the management of adolescent obesity their views should be strongly considered.

Abstract	Vaccination during pregnancy is increasingly adopted worldwide in order to protect the mother and her offspring. We studied the current vaccination programs specifically for pregnant women in 42 European countries. Vaccination programs for pregnant women are in place in 37 countries, as follows: influenza (36 countries), pertussis (28), hepatitis B (12), tetanus (10), pneumococcal disease (10), meningococcal disease (10), rabies (8), tick-borne encephalitis (6), hepatitis A (5), poliomyelitis (4), diphtheria (3), Haemophilus influenzae (2), and human papilloma virus (1). Recommendations for vaccination against influenza and pertussis concern almost exclusively pregnant women regardless of high-risk conditions, however differences between vaccination recommendations are noted in terms of timing. Vaccinations against hepatitis B, hepatitis A, pneumococcal disease, meningococcal disease, poliomyelitis, H. influenzae, rabies, and tick-born encephalitis mainly concern pregnant women at high-risk for exposure or serious illness and post-exposure vaccinations. Overall, five European countries have no vaccination recommendations specifically for pregnant women. In conclusion, there are significant differences in vaccination programs for pregnant women in Europe. Vaccination programs for pregnant women should expand in order to protect maternal and infant health. A consensus-based vaccination program is needed.

Abstract	A case of a 2-month-old boy with constipation and a localized abdominal distension in the right abdomen and hypogastrium is presented. Plain radiograph, ultrasound exam as well as a barium enema were suggestive of Hirschsprung's disease (HD) (ultrashort segment disease). Nevertheless, rectal suction biopsy was negative for neuronal abnormalities and unexpectedly on plain radiograph vertebral abnormalities were noticed. Subsequently magnetic resonance imaging of the spine and abdomen was performed, to evaluate possible spinal cord lesions and potential abnormalities of the perineal region musculature. A syringe throughout medullary cone was noted. The well-known issue, that the diagnosis of HD does not depend on the imaging (radiological) findings, was confirmed. The step-bystep diagnostic approach from the initial thought of ultrashort segment HD to the later imaging-based diagnosis of syringomyelia is discussed in this present paper.

Abstract	Background: While all European countries implement vaccination programs for children, there are gaps in terms of vaccination programs for adults. Methods: We studied the 2019 vaccination policies for adults in 42 European countries. Results: Vaccination programs for adults were in place in all countries. However, there were considerable differences between countries in terms of number of vaccinations, target populations and frame of implementation (recommended or mandatory vaccinations). In particular the following vaccination policies were in place: influenza (42 countries), tetanus (31), diphtheria (30), pneumococcus (29), hepatitis B (20), pertussis (18), measles (14), human papilloma virus (14), meningococcus tetravalent A,C,W,Y (14), rubella (13), hepatitis A (11), mumps (11), poliomyelitis (10), herpes zoster (9), varicella (8), tick-born encephalitis (8), meningococcus B (6), rabies (6), Conclusions: There are significant differences in vaccination programs for adults in Europe. Routine vaccination programs for adults need to be strengthened. A consensus-based vaccination program is needed.

Abstract	Background: The internet is a valuable tool for access to health-related information. There is limited literature regarding its use by parents of children with surgical conditions. Aim: To investigate internet usage by parents seeking information about the surgical conditions of their offspring in relation to epidemiological factors such as family residential area and parental educational level and to subsequently review the literature regarding this topic. Methods: An anonymous questionnaire about internet usage was completed by eligible parents of children who were admitted to our clinic for minor surgical procedures during a six-month period. Results: Our results demonstrated that the internet has been mostly used by mothers for children's health information. Google was the most commonly used search engine, while pediatricians were the first parental choice for 'live' information. Only one-quarter of the parents informed their doctor about the information found online. Nine of ten parents had a positive opinion of an official website managed by the doctors of our clinic. Our results mostly agreed with the international literature. Conclusion: In conclusion, the establishment of official websites (designed and managed by specialists) that parents can access to receive appropriate health information is mandatory in the internet era.

Abstract	This study examines the views of teachers and parents on critical issues concerning their collaboration in the education of children with ASD. For the purposes of this study, a total of 171 teachers and 50 parents of children with ASD, attending mainstream or special primary school units, were randomly selected in Greece in order to respond to a structured questionnaire. The majority of teachers and parents were found to be of the opinion that communication and collaboration between teachers and parents are rendered as critical [n=165 teachers (96.5%), n=50 parents (100%)]. Postgraduate academic studies and working experience with children with ASD are seen to be the most important factors shaping the attitudes of teachers towards collaboration with parents. On the other hand, the types of working unit teachers were employed in are seen to rank in lower importance.
