Über diese Zeitschrift

Objective

The International Journal of Adolescent Medicine and Health (IJAMH) is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, scientific journal which aims to publish original research on the promotion, prevention and improvement of adolescents’ health and well-being globally.

Starting 2025, the journal will be transferred to Diamond Open Access on a year-by-year basis. All articles will thus immediately appear under the Creative Commons license CC-BY. There will be no publication costs for the authors. The Open Access transformation is based on Subscribe-to-Open, an alternative model that enables the full Open Access transformation of journals by continuing existing subscriptions. The prerequisite for successful transformation is that subscriptions are continued to the same extent as before. The editors of the International Journal of Adolescent Medicine and Health and the publisher De Gruyter would therefore like to thank all subscribers for their support in making the transformation to Open Access possible.

Our mission is to enhance the health and well-being of individuals during adolescence. To achieve this, we aim not only to publish research that supports their healthy growth and development but also to empower young people with chronic conditions and special health needs to successfully transition from pediatric to adult care. Starting in　2025, the journal will feature a dedicated section　"Transitions in Medicine and Health Care", focusing on this important topic. We work closely with the Society for Transition Medicine (Gesellschaft für Transitionsmedizin e.V., GfTM), whose official publication the journal is.

We seek original manuscripts, review articles, short communications, and letters to the editor from all disciplines worldwide. We welcome manuscripts from our colleagues in medicine, nursing, health services research, social work, psychiatry, psychology and youth work, public health and policy, and other disciplines working to improve the health and well-being of adolescents and young adults.

International Journal of Adolescent Medicine and Health regularly identifies focus topics that the editorial team considers to be of particular global relevance.

Focus Topics in 2024 and 2025

Innovations in Adolescent Health

Climate Change and Health

Refugee and Migrant Health

Promoting Mental Health

Diversity and Inclusion

Sexual and Reproductive Health

Our International Editorial Team is dedicated to producing a high-quality scientific journal that is essential reading for healthcare professionals, practitioners, researchers, educators, managers, policymakers, students, and other learners. All contributions submitted for publication undergo single-anonymized peer review by at least two renowned experts in the field, selected and invited by the Editors-in-Chief or the Associate Editors.

Objectives Patterns of smartphone use vary across ages; however, adolescents and young adults may be at particular risk, with more behavioral addictions and adverse health effects. This study explored the prevalence of smartphone addictions among health adolescent professional students and examined how problematic smartphone usage interferes with their level of physical activity as well as health-related quality of life. Methods A cross-sectional Analytical study based on self-perceived outcome measures such as the smartphone addiction scale-short version, the ‘International Physical Activity Questionnaire-short form’, and ‘Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System 29’-item profile was done with a sample of 400 participants. Results A total of 400 individuals (125 Males & 275 females) with mean age being 20.8 + 2.06 years recruited for the study. Smartphone addiction was most prevalent in dentistry students (43 %), followed by medicine (32 %) and allied health science (30.5 %), with no statistically significant differences in the addiction rate among the three programs. Compared with smartphone-addicted individuals, nonaddicted individuals had marginally greater physical function (mean difference =0.670, p<0.001), and those addicted to smartphones had significantly higher. anxiety (mean difference = 2.776, p<0.001), depression (mean difference =2.264, p< 0.001), and fatigue (mean difference =2.264, p<0.001). Physical activity was found to have no statistically significant difference between addicted and non-addicted individuals and except for sleep disturbance, none of the domains of PROMISE-29 showed any statistically significant correlation with physical activity. Conclusions The findings highlight the need for recommendation for setting a time limit for the usage of smartphones for formal and informal academic activities, as well as policy measures to promote normal smartphone use.

Objectives To estimate anemia prevalence and risk factors among adolescent females in Beni-Suef Governorate. Methods A population-based cross-sectional mixed quantitative and qualitative survey was conducted among 1000 adolescent females in the seven Beni-Suef governorate, Upper Egypt districts from November 2023 to March 2024. A structured questionnaire including socio-demographic and menstrual history was used. Focus group discussions (FGD) were conducted to assess their awareness. Hemoglobin testing was performed on the participants, and the diseased ones were treated. Results Anemia is highly prevalent among adolescent females in the Beni-Suef governorate (35.8 %). Residence (Adjusted OR=0.652, 95 % CI:0.439–0.970), and daily number of pads (Adjusted OR=1.208, 95 % CI:1.006–1.451) were found to be statistically significant risk factors for anemia in adolescent females. Conclusions Anemia is highly prevalent among adolescent females. Early assessment and management of anemia is highly recommended. Nutritional interventions such as food fortification, supplementation, and nutrition education should be provided. Micronutrient supplementation programs should be implemented in all basic schools, and extensive nutrition awareness initiatives should be implemented for adolescent females and caregivers.

Objectives This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, knowledge, and practices related to non-prescribed weight loss supplements among university students, and to identify reported side effects to support targeted health education. Methods An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among students at a public Egyptian university using a self-administered bilingual (English and Arabic) questionnaire. A total of 437 male and female undergraduates from all academic years were selected through multistage random sampling technique. Sample size was calculated via OpenEpi (v24.1), and data were analyzed using SPSS (v25). Results The prevalence of weight loss supplement use among students was 12.6 %. Among users, 43.6 % self-prescribed these products, and 80 % were females. Social media and family recommendations were key influencing sources for nearly 60 % of users. Moreover, 40 % of users reported experiencing side effects. The mean knowledge score among all participants was 3.15 ± 0.89 out of 4. Conclusions The findings indicate that 12.6 % of university students use weight loss supplements, and 43.6 % of them consume these products without medical consultation. The gap between knowledge and practice highlights the need for targeted awareness campaigns and stricter regulation.

Objectives Optimal cognitive development in early life is crucial for academic achievement and long-term quality of life. However, there is limited and inconsistent evidence regarding its association with nutritional status, especially among underprivileged school-aged children and adolescent girls. This study aimed to assess the association between nutritional status and cognitive function among adolescent girls aged 11 to 17 years. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 372 adolescent girls from two schools in Takalar District between July and November 2024. Data collection included questionnaires, 24-h dietary recall, anthropometric measurements, and cognitive function assessments using the Culture Fair Intelligence Test (CFIT). Multivariate regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors of cognitive function. Results The mean age of participants was 14.0 ± 1.5 years. The prevalence of stunting, wasting, and chronic energy deficiency (CED) was 18.0 , 11.3, and 19.9 %, respectively. Girls with CED and stunting had significantly lower cognitive scores than their counterparts (CED: 74.3 ± 13.8 vs. 78.8 ± 13.8; p<0.05; Stunting: 73.3 ± 12.6 vs. 79.0 ± 13.9; p<0.01). Regular intake of iron-folic acid (IFA) supplements was associated with higher cognitive scores (80.2 ± 13.1 vs. 77.0 ± 14.1; p<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that BMI-for-age z-score (β=3.419; p<0.01), IFA intake (β=4.054; p<0.05), and height-for-age z-score (β=0.652; p<0.01) were significant predictors of cognitive performance. Conclusions Nutritional status was significantly associated with cognitive function among adolescent girls in underprivileged communities. Targeted nutrition interventions may be critical in supporting cognitive development in this vulnerable population.

Objectives This study aimed to assess the dietary patterns of adolescents to develop targeted medical and organizational interventions for optimizing nutrition and physical activity. Methods Research was conducted in Astana in the fall of 2024 and involved 162 adolescents aged 15–19 years (mean age: 17.8 ± 0.41 years) who were classified into special medical groups based on preventive health examinations. Dietary data were collected using the World Health Organization-recommended 24-h recall method, and nutrient intake was assessed against national dietary recommendations and Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization standards. Results The analysis demonstrated that adolescents in special medical groups had significantly reduced daily caloric intake (p<0.001) and an imbalanced macronutrient profile, characterized by excessive consumption of animal fats and simple carbohydrates alongside insufficient intake of polysaccharides and dietary fiber. Widespread deficiencies in essential micronutrients were observed, particularly in vitamins A, D, B1, B6, B9, C, and E, as well as calcium, iodine, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron. These nutritional inadequacies were closely associated with reduced physical endurance, increased fatigue, and lower academic and physical performance, underscoring the urgent need for targeted nutritional interventions. Conclusions These findings emphasize the necessity of dietary interventions and tailored physical activity programs to enhance the overall health and functional capacity of adolescents requiring specialized medical supervision.

Background Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women in India. To reduce its incidence, the government is set to roll out a Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination for adolescent girls. Objectives To find the association between risk perception, self-efficacy, vaccine response efficacy and willingness to vaccinate adolescents (9–18 years) against HPV and to explore factors associated with willingness for vaccination among adolescent girls, their parents and healthcare workers. Methods A mixed-method study was conducted among parents of adolescent girls aged 9–18 using multistage simple random sampling in Puducherry. After a brief education session, a self-developed and validated questionnaire was used to assess perceived risk, self-efficacy, vaccine response efficacy and willingness for HPV vaccination. Chi-squared and Fisher’s exact tests were used for analysis. Results Out of 388 participants, majority (78.1 %) had heard of cervical cancer, and 6.2 % were aware of HPV infection. Of the participants, 44.8 % (95 % CI: 39.9–49.8 %) had a high perceived risk, 49 % (95 % CI: 44.0–53.9 %) had low self-efficacy, and 70.9 % (95 % CI: 66.2–75.2 %) believed in high vaccine response efficacy. Additionally, 91.5 % of participants were willing to vaccinate under a universal immunisation schedule, and only 44.1 % from private providers. Participants who were willing to vaccinate had a higher risk perception of HPV infection and cervical cancers, high belief in vaccines and low self-efficacy in their own health (p<0.001) compared to those who were not willing for HPV vaccination.

Objectives Tuberculosis is a global public health challenge, disproportionately affecting adolescents in low-and middle-income countries. Malnutrition worsens immune function, delays recovery and increases the risk of treatment failure in Tuberculosis patients. The objectives of this study was to assess the nutritional status of adolescents undergoing TB treatment in urban Bangladesh and identify the determinants of malnutrition. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 1, 2023, to May 31, 2024, among 339 adolescents receiving Tuberculosis treatment in five hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Nutritional status was primarily assessed by Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA). Anthropometric data were collected to calculate BMI-for-age and height-for-age z-scores to verify nutritional status. Results The prevalence of severe malnutrition was 14.2 % and another 41.6 % were found moderately malnourished in PG-SGA. The z-scores also showed 14.2 % had severe malnutrition and 21.2 % had moderate malnutrition. The mean BMI was 17.89, with 59.3 % of participants underweight and 63.7 % experiencing some degree of stunting. Eating difficulties, particularly appetite loss, were reported by 45.4 % of adolescents. While 52.8 % received some nutrition-related information, only 1.8 % received comprehensive nutritional care. Logistic regression identified significant predictors of malnutrition, including female gender (AOR=0.51, p=0.01), presence of major comorbidities (AOR=3.67, p=0.01), eating difficulties (AOR=3.41, p<0.01), Type I Tuberculosis (AOR=2.57, p<0.01), and less than four meals (AOR=2.69, p=0.01). Conclusions Both PG-SGA and anthropometric indicators revealed significant nutritional deficits. Integrated nutritional support and management of comorbidities should be prioritized alongside Tuberculosis care to improve treatment outcomes.

Objectives Adolescent knowledge about sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in Indonesia is low and moderate. This study aims to determine the influence of peer mentorship on improving adolescents’ knowledge and attitudes about SRH. Methods This study uses a quasi-experimental pre- and post-test with a control group design. The population is adolescents in high school, aged 15–19. Eight students were selected as volunteers to be trained by professionals as mentors. The sample was selected using a proportional random sampling technique, with 91 students in each group. Peer mentoring was carried out for three months with 12 meetings. A questionnaire measured knowledge and attitudes before and after the intervention. Results The majority of respondents were women (57.1 %) and men (42.9 %), with the most common age being 17 years old (29.7 %). There was no difference between the characteristics of the respondents and the variables studied. Respondents’ knowledge level increased in the high category after the intervention from 67 to 95.6 %; positive attitudes increased from 48.4 to 51.6 %. Conclusions Peer mentoring interventions significantly influenced respondents’ knowledge. The peer mentoring approach effectively increases adolescents’ knowledge and attitudes. It is recommended that this assistance become a school program.

Objectives This study aims to investigate the impact of specific learning disorder (SLD) on quality of life, expressed emotion, and clinical features in adolescents diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods A total of 35 adolescents participated in the study, 15 of whom were diagnosed with ADHD alone, while 20 were diagnosed with both ADHD and SLD. The adolescents completed the Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CASI), the Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI), and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL). Parents filled out the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL)-Proxy Report, the Expressed Emotion Scale (EES), and the Conners Parent Rating Scale-48 (CPRS-48). Results According to the children’s self-reports, the ADHD+SLD group showed significantly lower physical health-related quality of life and a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms compared to their peers. However, based on parental reports, no significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of the children’s quality of life or the levels of expressed emotion among parents. Conclusions Adolescents with ADHD+SLD tend to perceive their physical health-related quality of life as lower. Therefore, it is crucial to identify this issue early and implement appropriate interventions.

Objectives Mental health literacy (MHL) plays a crucial role in promoting mental health and early identification of psychological issues among students. Identifying the determinants of MHL can contribute to the development of effective educational interventions and policies. This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing MHL among high school students in Khoy, Iran. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted on 564 high school students selected through a two-stage cluster sampling method from six health-promoting schools in Khoy. Data collection tools included a demographic questionnaire and a standardized mental health literacy questionnaire. Data were analyzed using MANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression tests. This project has an ethics approval code. Results The results indicated that male students had significantly lower mental health literacy (MHL) scores compared to female students (β=−3.51, p<0.001). Maternal education and occupation were identified as significant predictors, with students whose mothers had university education (β=−5.64, p=0.03) or were employed (β=−2.33, p=0.02) achieving higher MHL scores. Similarly, students with employed fathers also scored higher (β=−1.92, p=0.03). No significant associations were found between MHL and economic status, living situation, or parental age. Conclusions Based on the findings of the study, gender, maternal education, and parental occupation significantly influence students’ mental health literacy (MHL). Therefore, it is recommended that educational interventions and targeted strategies be implemented to enhance MHL, with a particular focus on male students and those from families with lower educational and occupational status. Such efforts should aim to address existing disparities and promote equitable access to mental health resources and knowledge.
