Quality of life and mental health in children and adolescents during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic: results of a two-wave nationwide population-based study

Ulrike Ravens-Sieberer et al.

Summary: The German COPSY study is a longitudinal study that examines the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children and adolescents. The study found that during the pandemic, the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children and adolescents decreased, and there was an increase in emotional problems, peer-related mental health problems, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and psychosomatic complaints. Socially disadvantaged children and children of mentally burdened parents were more at risk of impaired mental health, while female gender and older age were associated with fewer mental health problems. A positive family climate and social support supported the mental health of children and adolescents during the pandemic.

Elissa M. Abrams et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated adverse impacts on children, leading to increases in housing and food insecurity, as well as a significant rise in abuse-related injuries.

School Closures During Social Lockdown and Mental Health, Health Behaviors, and Well-being Among Children and Adolescents During the First COVID-19 Wave A Systematic Review

Russell Viner et al.

Summary: This study reviews the association of school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic with the mental health, health behaviors, and well-being of children and adolescents. The findings suggest that school closures are associated with adverse mental health symptoms and unhealthy behaviors among children and adolescents. However, it is difficult to determine the direct impact of school closures as they are often implemented as part of broader social lockdown measures.

Summary: The survey in Austria highlights the psychological burden and impairments faced by children and adolescents during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Children and adolescents are worried about the situation, with girls being more burdened across all age groups.

Physical abuse of young children during the COVID-19 pandemic: Alarming increase in the relative frequency of hospitalizations during the lockdown period

Melanie Loiseau et al.

Summary: The study looked at hospital admissions for physically abused children aged 0-5 in France during the COVID-19 lockdown from March to April 2020, compared to the same period in the previous three years. While the absolute number of abused children did not significantly change, there was a 40% increase in the relative frequency of hospitalizations for physical abuse from 2017 to 2020. This suggests a concerning rise in violence against young children during the lockdown period.
