[article]
Titre : Post-operative neuropathic fractures in patients with myelomeningocele Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Denis S. DRUMMOND, Auteur ; Marc MOREAU, Auteur ; Richard L. CRUESS, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.147-50 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Neuropathic fractures are common after major surgical procedures to stabilize the hip or spine in patients with myelomeningocele. Complications resulting from such fractures are frequently observed. The fractures occur particularly in the more severely involved children and are associated with prolonged immobilization after surgery. The authors advise that all necessary surgery be done within the shortest possible time, and urge that prolonged immobilization be avoided if possible.

[article]
Titre : Intergenerational factors in the etiology of anencephalus and spina bifida Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lowell E. SEVER, Auteur ; Irvin EMANUEL, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.151-154 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To test the hypothesis that events and conditions early in women's lives influence their future risk of producing babies with anencephalus and spina bifida, a case-control study compared mothers of affected infants with mothers whose infants were normal. Occupational class scores of husbands and fathers of the case mothers and control mothers were also compared. While there was no difference between the scores of case and control husbands, the mean score of fathers of case mothers was significantly less than that of the fathers of control mothers. This can be an indication that case mothers grew up under less favorable conditions. These findings, in conjunction with the pattern evident from previous epidemiological studies, support the hypothesis that intergenerational factors play a rôle in the etiology of these defects.

Titre : Spina bifida: implications for 100 children at school Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Gillian M. HUNT, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.160-172 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : One hundred children with spina bifida were examined at home and reviewed at the schools they attended. The severity of the handicap had not been appreciated at the time of school entry. 27 of the 41 children who were over 10 years of age had become wheel-chair dependent; 39 of the 100 children had an IQ below 80, and incontinence remained a problem for 68 children. 64 had visual defects, including two who were totally blind, 27 had epilepsy, and 87 had suffered fractures, burns, scalds or pressure sores. Most of the children had started at an ordinary school. The teachers had to give a disproportionate amount of attention to the handicapped child, but were themselves often given inadequate information and support. Many children had learning difficulties. As they grew older their incontinence was less well tolerated. Wheelchair dependency precluded their admission to an ordinary secondary school with stairs, so the majority of older children attended special schools. Only very few will enter normal employment, and many will require a period of education and training beyond the usual school-leaving age. The education of such children should have realistic goals and aim at achieving the maximum degree of self-care.

TARRAN, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.173-182 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A specialist social worker interviewed the parents of 67 cerebral-palsied children aged between three and 10 years who were attending or had recently attended for treatment at centres in Dundee and Glasgow. Data were collected on how the presence of a handicapped child affected family life, and on the parents' perceptions of the services they had received and found helpful. Although half the mothers initially were unhappy about their child being away from home for part of the day at a pre-school day placement, the majority soon found that the child's absence (especially in cases when he was receiving active therapy) made it easier to cope when he was home. Nearly half of the parents questioned were dissatisfied about the way they were first told of their child's handicap, and a majority felt they had not received enough help at this time. The requirements for a flexible and comprehensive service to meet the needs of such families are outlined. Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=516

[article]
Titre : Scaphocephaly: aesthetic and psychosocial considerations Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jeanette BARRITT, Auteur ; Mary BROOKSBANK, Auteur ; Donald SIMPSON, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.183-191 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A series of 48 children with scaphocephaly has been reviewed. 44 had synostosis of the sagittal suture alone, and four had additional involvement of other sutures. Although six children showed significant developmental delay, with eventual mental retardation in five cases, it does not appear that this is caused by mechanical constriction of the brain. In the majority of cases, scaphocephaly appears to be a benign variant in cranial development. Operation by linear craniectomy was performed for cosmetic reasons in 14 cases, and in general the results were good. Operation was not performed in the other 34 cases, including 15 seen in infancy, and review of these has shown a high incidence of anxiety among parents and children. Therefore there is an acceptable case for cosmetic correction of severe scaphocephaly in infancy. Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=517

Titre : Prader-Willi syndrome and scoliosis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Vanja A. HOLM, Auteur ; Edwin L. LAURNEN, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.192-201 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Of 37 patients with the Prader-Willi syndrome for whom spinal x-rays were available, 32 had a structural scoliosis of 10 degrees or greater. Kyphosis was also found to be more common in older persons with this syndrome, occurring in only one of 14 adolescents but in five of 10 adults. The scoliosis was analyzed in infantile, juvenile, adolescent and adult subgroups. The results suggest that the scoliosis is present from an early age and remains stable during childhood, but progresses in 15 to 20 per cent of cases during adolescence. Scoliosis in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome has many of the clinical characteristics encountered in idiopathic scoliosis. Because it is difficult to detect in these individuals, the authors recommended that baseline spinal X-rays be obtained in all such patients who have suspicious asymmetry of the spine, followed by regular clinical examination, especially during adolescence.

[article]
Titre : Late diagnosis of congenital dislocation of the hip Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : D. M. DUNN, Auteur ; S. M. O'RIORDAN, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.202-207 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A cohort of children presenting with clicking hips was studied in two districts. In one district any child with a clicking hip was treated as though the hip was dislocated, i.e. by splintage in abduction, but in the other district no treatment was offered. None of the 'treated' group later presented with a dislocated hip, whereas four children were found with dislocated hips among the 'untreated' group. A further four children who were not treated because their hips appeared to be normal on the second examination later presented with dislocated hips. It is suggested that the accuracy of diagnosis in all units might be improved if the examination of the newborn was carried out by a limited number of doctors to whom greater experience would accrue. Further improvements would be made if any hip which was found to click on examination was treated as an unstable hip and splinted in abduction.

DEFRIES, Auteur Année de publication : 1981 Article en page(s) : p.217-227 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Evidence for the heterogeneity of reading disability was sought in a family study. Psychometric test data on 125 reading-disabled children (probands) and their siblings and parents were used to identify four subtypes of reading disability, each with a distinctive cognitive ability profile. The validity of this profile analysis was then assessed by applying the same classification system to profiles of affected parents and siblings of the probands. Affected siblings of probands in subtype 3 (severely impaired reading ability but normal spatial/reasoning and coding/speed) were more likely to be of the same subtype than would be expected on the basis of chance. However, no such evidence for familial transmission of specific subtypes was found in the parental data. It is suggested that family studies may provide a strong test of the heterogeneity of reading disability, and that such studies should be used to assess the validity of alternative typologies.

Serum determinations revealed no significant relationship with clinical assessments. CSF measurements showed significant differences near to the time of delivery between the normal and handicapped groups at age one, which supports the hypothesis of a causal link between neonatal brain damage and CSF enzyme levels.

Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A prospective study was made of levels of lactate and hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid of 57 term neonates, in relation to the time elapsed since delivery, neonatal examinations (Apgar score, neurological symptoms and EEG findings) and psychomotor outcome at one year of age. Serum determinations revealed no significant relationship with clinical assessments. CSF measurements showed significant differences near to the time of delivery between the normal and handicapped groups at age one, which supports the hypothesis of a causal link between neonatal brain damage and CSF enzyme levels.

The latter group had all been included in a developmental enrichment program at the clinic. The results showed that the later-treated group had had more surgical operations than the earlier group, and at younger ages; that they were able to sit and stand earlier; and that eventually they had greater ambulatory ability. Early intervention also improved family relationships, and parents and siblings became more involved in the team approach to the children's therapy.
