Saudi Arabia 1983 |
Prospective longitudinal study/ N= 178 |
To outline the etiological and ecological factors responsible for accidents in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) and suggest relevant preventive actions for this society. |
Proximal DSH: (child's age; child's sex). Intermediate DSH: (behavioral factors - supervision). Distal DSH: (housing; employment situation of father/mother; social factors; economic factors; cultural factors; education of parents).
The AH addressed were Poisoning/Intoxication. The age range of children was from six months to seven years old, predominantly male. Most mothers were unaware of the toxicity potential of the substances. In 18% of cases supervision was delegated to an older child (sibling); 38% of families lived in small apartments and 30% in isolated houses in poor neighborhoods. In 80% of cases the father of the child had primary education and the mother had no formal education. |

Proximal DSH: (child's sex; ethnicity/race). Distal DSH: (living conditions, housing, mother's education, social factors, economic factors, access to health services).
General AHs were addressed. Boys were more likely to suffer a home injury. White, non-Hispanic children were significantly more likely too. Uninsured children were more likely to live below the poverty level and in households characterized as disordered, factors associated with the occurrence of injuries. |

Proximal DSH: (child's sex). Intermediate DSH: (mother's age). Distal DSH: (living conditions, employment of the father/mother).
General AHs were addressed. For the case group, the child's primary caregiver was single, the majority received some benefit from the government. The assessment of physical and mental well-being did not reveal differences in both groups. A larger proportion (19%) of the group of cases did not receive social support when compared to those controlled, who received more support from friends and neighbors. The families of cases had more children. |

Proximal SDH: (child's age; child's sex). Intermediate SDH: (lifestyle - monoparental vs. biparental homes). Distal SDH: (parents' education; social factors; economic factors)..
The study addressed general AH. Boys have slightly higher injuries rates than girls. It was also determined that 32.9% of children who suffered injuries at home had between 24-35 months. The low educational level of parents significantly increased the risk of injuries. It was significantly higher for the children of families with lower income (p<0.05). Daughters of young mothers with parents of lower education and low socioeconomic status have a considerably higher risk of injuries. |

AH were addressed in a general way. The results showed that a greater number of household risks were significantly attributed to school-age children. Migrant children are more exposed to risks at home compared to local children. High family stress has been identified as a risk factor as it can lead to mental distraction of parents and disturb the child's emotional behavior. |

Transversal study/ N= 80 |
To examine the relation between the socioeconomic and sociodemographic factors of the family and the risk factors for the domestic injury. |
Intermediate SDH: (parents' age). Distal SDH: (life conditions; economic factors). .
AH were addressed in a general way. In both low-income and higher-income families, risk factors were found. However, poorer families with younger parents have less knowledge to identify risk factors for the occurrence of AH. |

Case-control study/ N(cases)= 40 N(control)= 40 |
To examine the relation between home-based injuries in children and the presence of parents with symptoms of hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). |
Intermediate SDH: (psychological factors)..
AH were addressed in a general way. The risk of ADHD among parents was significantly higher in children hospitalized for AH compared to the control group. Having a father at high risk for ADHD increased two times the relative risk of children being exposed to injuries. |

Transversal study with descriptive and analytical components/ N= 6534 |
To investigate the association between unintentional injuries in children and postpartum depression. |
Intermediate SDH: (psychological factors).
General AH were addressed. 9.8% of the infants suffered unintentional injuries and 9.5% of the mothers had postpartum depression. After adjustment for covariates, postpartum depression was significantly associated positively with any unintentional injuries. |

Case-control/ N(cases)= 338 N(control)= 1438 |
To determine the relation between a range of modifiable risk factors and cases of medically assisted burns in children under 5. |
Proximal SDH: (ethnicity/race). Distal SDH: (housing; economic factors).
AH by Burns/Scaldings were addressed. The children of the cases were slightly younger than the control ones (median age 1.47 vs. 1.56 years old), less likely to be of white ethnic origin (82% vs. 91%), more likely to receive state benefits (46 % vs. 35%) and greater probability of living in rented places (50% vs. 37%). In addition, they lived in neighborhoods with higher deprivation scores (median, 20.6 vs. 15.7). |

Cohort study/ N= 12.966 |
Investigate behavioral and child developmental characteristics and the risk of burns and scalds. |
Proximal SDH: (child's age; child's sex). Intermediate SDH: (behavioral factors).
AH by Burns/Scaldings were addressed. Boys younger than two years old were more likely to suffer burns, and girls suffered more burns between five and eleven. Pre-school injuries were related to gender and motor development, and in school-age children: frequent tantrums, hyperactivity, and coordination difficulties. |
