-The normal role of the immune system is to fight infections: however, in a child with juvenile arthritis, the immune system starts attacking the healthy tissues, particularly the lining of the joint (synovial membranes).
-Usually the synovial membranes produce fluid that lubricates and cushions the connecting bones but when the synovial membranes become inflamed, more fluid is produced, resulting in the affected joints becoming swollen, painful and stiff.
-Term arthritis means "joint inflammation" but juvenile arthritis can also affect the eyes, skin and gastrointestinal tract.
-Also referred to as: Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, juvenile chronic arthritis and Still's disease.

Protective-
- Having access to recreation facilities will allow the child to have movement and keep its joints and muscle active
Risk-
- If the child cant access recreation facilities, this will lead to the individual not having as much movement as required, which will lead to the condition. 

Housing Environment: Ensuring safety in the home is important for reducing the risk of injury for children with juvenile arthritis due to their inability to move quickly and a lack of balance as a result of inflamed joints

-          The number of cases of juvenile arthritis is difficult to estimate because is it an uncommon condition. Based on self-reported data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) 2014–15 National Health Survey (NHS), juvenile arthritis is estimated to affect at least one child in every 1,000 aged 0–15. 
-          Research suggests that more girls suffer from juvenile arthritis than boys [1]. 
-          X 2.3 increase in the rate of hospitalisations for children with juvenile arthritis, from 2005–06 to 2014–15—girls accounted for most of this increase 
- In the 10 years to 2009-10, the age-standardized hospitalization rates for juvenile arthritis increased significantly , from 8.8 per 100,00 population in 200-01 to 28.9 per 100,00 in 2009-10.
- The hospitalization rate for girls was more than double the hospitalization rate for boys.

Age: some children may grow out of the conditions as they age.
Sex: a greater number of girls are affected by juvenile arthritis than boys.
Protective: If your parents don't have arthritis you may be less likely to develop it.
Risk: If your parents have arthritis you may be more likely to develop it.

Behavioural
Physical activity:
protective: regular physical activity will help maintain the mobility of the joints.
risk: Over - exercising can also increase the pain associated with juvenile arthritis.
Diet:
protective: if children consume an adequate supply of energy-dense nutrients this could decrease the risk of juvenile arthritis
risk: if children over-consume energy dense-nutrients then they are at risk of becoming overweight/obese. Vice versa if they don't consume enough nutrients than they are at risk of being underweight/anorexic . This can increase the risk of juvenile arthritis.

As there are different types of juvenile arthritis, the type of treatment will vary according to individual circumstances, children may require therapy to strengthen muscles and keep the joints flexible in order to promote normal limb development. medications to control inflammation and prevent long term joint damage are also important.
Protective-
- having access to health care can decrease the chances of having the condition
Risk-
- not having access to health care can increase the chance of having juvenile arthritis

Parental Education: being able to effectively manage and treat juvenile arthritis is dependent on the parents/therapy are being followed. 
Protective-
-if the parents and therapist are educated with the matter, it is more than likely to succeed.
Risk-
-if the parents don't know much about the condition, it is more than likely to go undetected, which can have a negative effect on the child.  ]]> 2017-09-04 05:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/haystac/lai8r5rksgnq/wish/184471234 treatment: schimich https://padlet.com/haystac/lai8r5rksgnq/wish/184600530 - non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID)
