Environmental effects on motor development: the case of "African infant precocity" / Charles M. SUPER in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 18-5 (October 1976) . - p.561-567 Titre : Environmental effects on motor development: the case of "African infant precocity" Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Charles M. SUPER, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.561-567 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In order to clarify the extent and cause of African infants' precocity in motor development, as reported by Geber and others, 64 babies and their families were intensively studied in a rural Kenyan community. It was found that the motor skills of sitting and walking, which the Kenyan babies acquired early (by American standards), are (a) specifically taught by the caretakers and (b) can be practised in the course of their usual daily routines. They are not advanced in skills which are not taught or practised. Middle-class urban Kenyan children from the same ethnic background were found generally to be intermediate in both environmental encouragement and rate of advancement. Preliminary results from other groups in Kenya suggest that encouragement of motor development is widespread and that for behaviors which are differentially encouraged among groups, the average age of attainment is predictable from environmental measures.

Testing of visual acuity in young children: an evaluation of some commonly used methods / Josenilda Caldeira BRANT in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 18-5 (October 1976) . - p.568-576 Titre : Testing of visual acuity in young children: an evaluation of some commonly used methods Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Josenilda Caldeira BRANT, Auteur ; Margaret NOWOTNY, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.568-576 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In a comparative study of screening tests for visual acuity in young children, two groups of children were presented with three different tests. In the younger group (three to five years) three single opto-type tests were compared: Sheridan's five and seven letter matching test, the Fooks test and the E card test. The Sheridan test gave the best results and the E card test was found to be unsuitable for this age-group. The Fooks is an attractive test but was less sensitive in the detection of defects than the Sheridan test. In the older group (five to seven years) a single opto-type test, the Sheridan-Gardiner test, was compared with the E chart and the Snellen chart. The Sheridan-Gardiner test was found to have limitations in the detection of defects, including amblyopia, therefore results obtained by this method should not be considered to be directly comparable with those of the Snellen chart. The E chart gave good results in the detection of defects and there was less lateral confusion than had been expected. It has disadvantages, but there is still a place for its use in the screening of normal school-age children. The Snellen chart was the most effective test in the detection of defects, but not all the children were able to co-operate in its use. It is concluded that where it is possible to use the Snellen chart it should always be the method of choice.

Nocturnal enuresis in childhood / Juliet ESSEN in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

More boys than girls were wet at 11 years, although there was no difference at seven years. At both ages the manual social-classes were over-represented among the children with enuresis. These findings add support to the theory that nocturnal enuresis has multiple causes. The relative importance of social, developmental and psychiatric factors varies with the different groups of children early bed-wetting being associated with delayed development and later enuresis being more strongly associated with behaviour difficulties.

The behavior of the full-term but underweight newborn infant / Heidelise ALS in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

ADAMSON, Auteur ; Edward Z. TRONICK, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.590-602 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Ten underweight full-term newborns were compared with 10 full-weight newborns on the Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale. The Brazelton examination differentiated the two groups clearly on the reflexes of walking, crawling and passive movements of arms and legs, and on rooting and sucking. More importantly, it differentiated the two groups on behaviors which are important for the caretaker of the baby: these are attractiveness, need for stimulation, interactive processes and motor processes. The 10 underweight infants were followed up at a later date during the first year. They showed temperamental organizational difficulties and some indication of psychosomatic reaction to stress. It is possible that the underweight newborn's fragile organization elicits anxiety in the caretaker which makes interaction difficult.

TURLAND, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.603-619 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The electroencephalograms (EEGS) were recorded of 223 boys aged from 12 to 16 years inclusive from four different kinds of schools in the former borough of Warley, an industrial area on the outskirts of Birmingham, England. A battery of psychological tests were also administered and descriptions of behaviour were obtained from parents and teachers, as well as information on development and previous medical history. The data were analysed in terms of (a) prevalence of certain EEG features, usually considered abnormal, and (b) the relationship between the EEG and other demographic, developmental and psychological factors. Only 2-2 per cent of the EEGS showed definite abnormalities, such as localised sharp waves and/or spike and wave complexes in their resting record and/or during hyperventilation and photic stimulation, while a further 13-9 per cent showed very slight abnormalities or "immaturity". The abnormal and immature EEGS were significantly related to social class, type of school and positive medical history (especially a history of convulsions or faints). Comparisons with previously reported data are discussed.

In all children there was a positive correlation between the SER changes and the affected side of the body. In 12 children the SER of the "damaged" hemisphere disappeared; in 31 children it was less than the response of the "healthy" hemisphere. On the other hand, a positive correlation between the EEG changes and the affected side was found in only 16 of the patients, and there was a dubious correlation in three cases. It is concluded that SER data are more accurate and reliable than EEG results. Moreover, SER findings allow cerebral damage to be suspected earlier than the EEG results and therefore are of greater prognostic value.

Surgical correction of spastic thumb-in-palm deformity / Caroll M. SILVER in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

SIMON, Auteur ; Mehrdad MOTAMED, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.632-639 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A series of 31 operations on 27 patients for correction of the spastic thumb-in-palm deformity is reported. 19 patients were followed four years or longer post-operatively; the remainder have been followed for at least one year. In approximately 70 per cent of the operations, supplementary procedures were performed on the hand or forearm, as the deformity is usually only one facet of a complex spastic disability of the upper extremity. The surgical technique and illustrative cases are presented. Augmentation of a markedly weak extensor-abductor motor function is necessary, otherwise the spastic thumb-in-palm deformity will recur, as in two cases in the present series which required a second operation. The remainder of the patients were classified as improved, indicating that the thumb was no longer clenched in the palm, could be used in gross grasping activities, and the hand had become more useful. In no instance did the spastic hand become the primary functioning hand post-operatively.

At present there appears to be a wide gulf between sophisticated assessments and effective remedial intervention. This paper examines some of the issues involed in providing and evaluating remedial education, and the issues of definition, measurement and prevalence; it is concluded that as many as 20 per cent of 10-year-olds in inner cities in the United Kingdom may require extra help with reading. The evidence suggests that, over-all, remedial help is not at present very effective. A concerted research programme is needed to identify effective approaches.

Anencephalus in the Oxford Record Linkage Study area / Jean FEDRICK in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 18-5 (October 1976)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 18-5 (October 1976) . - p.643-656 Titre : Anencephalus in the Oxford Record Linkage Study area Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jean FEDRICK, Auteur Année de publication : 1976 Article en page(s) : p.643-656 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The incidence of anencephalus in the largely rural areas of Oxfordshire and west Berkshire from 1965 to 1972 was ascertained from the files of the Oxford Record Linkage Study as 1-49 per 1000 total births. There was little variation within the area, but there was a marked increase in incidence over the eight years of the study. There was a slight seasonal variation, with an excess of conceptions in the first two quarters of the year, a slight excess of births to primiparous women and to women aged between 20 and 24 years. There was an increase in incidence with falling social class, with a significant excess of fathers who were printers, painters and decorators, transport drivers or in the armed forces. Among 115 siblings, 11 (9-6 per cent) had defects of the central nervous system, and the incidence of anencephalus among twins was twice as high as expected.
