Periventricular low density as a predictor of neurobehavioral outcome in very low-birthweight infants / Cecelia MCCARTON-DAUM in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-5 (October 1983)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 25-5 (October 1983) . - p.559-565 Titre : Periventricular low density as a predictor of neurobehavioral outcome in very low-birthweight infants Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Cecelia MCCARTON-DAUM, Auteur ; Herbert G. VAUGHAN, Auteur ; Allan DANZIGER, Auteur ; Holly RUFF, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.559-565 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Sixty-four low-birthweight infants (less than 1500 g) were studied prospectively by cranial computerized tomography (CT) and by periodic neurobehavioral assessments. CT scans were obtained at 40 weeks postconceptional age. Neurobehavioral development was assessed by the Bayley Scales of Infant Development at seven, 12 and 18 months corrected age. 47 infants (73 per cent) had areas of diffuse periventricular low densities (PVLD). As a group, infants with PVLD had deviant Bayley scores for both mental and motor development at all follow-up ages. Scores for these infants were significantly lower than scores for infants with normal CT scans or scans with only focal low densities. It is concluded that very-low birthweight infants have an unexpectedly high prevalence of diffuse PVLD, and that this CT finding at 40 weeks postconceptional age is associated with abnormal neurobehavioral development throughout the first 18 months of life.

Part II considers school achievement problems at age 10 among the same groups of children. 80 per cent of MBD children had obvious problems in school achievement, compared with 16 per cent in the comparison group. The MPD and ADD groups did not differ significantly from the comparison group in this respect. There was a considerable overlap between behaviour problems and school achievement problems, and the results indicate a gloomy prognosis for both types of problem among children with MBD.

Neuroimmaturity decreased significantly with age, and after controlling for age and sex there were statistically significant differences in NI between the learning-disabled and control children. Male children from both groups, controlling for age, tended to have a higher NI than females. Patterns of disability were related to communication skills; older learning-disabled males had difficulty writing and spelling, whereas younger female learning-disabled children had difficulty with spoken language.

Mildly retarded individuals for unrelated parentage, both idiopathic and familial, had a strikingly higher prevalence of recorded disturbances than did a control group of retarded individuals with consanguineous parents and of probably genetic aetiology. These disturbances were as frequent among those with mild retardation as among parallel groups with severe retardation. The most significant single disturbance among the mildly retarded was a history of maternal reproductive inefficiency. These findings conflict with the view that mild retardation is predominantly 'cultural-familial' and is not pathological in nature.

The children were four to five years of age and did not have any overt signs or symptoms of the disease. However, they both had markedly reduced auditory memory-span before decreased vision and funduscopic changes developed. The subsequent course of the disease confirmed the diagnosis. It is concluded that neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis may affect mental functions much earlier than previously believed.

Birth and 'bonding'in non-industrial societies / Betsy LOZOFF in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-5 (October 1983)

Most cultures made no special effort to get mothers in body contact with infants in the minutes after birth: almost always the neonate was bathed, generally by a female birth assistant and in 54 per cent the baby was placed in a cradle or basket. Skin-to-skin contact was uncommon, since the infant was given nude to the mother in only 14 per cent of societies. However, in 98 per cent mother and baby subsequently rested together. In only 27 per cent were fathers allowed to be present during childbirth. Few cultures permitted immediate postpartum nursing, and the first breast-feeding was delayed 24 hours or more in 52 per cent. On anthropological ratings, there was no increase in maternal affection in societies which fostered mother-infant body contact, in paternal involvement when fathers were allowed at childbirth, or in breast-feeding duration in those which permitted early nursing.

Information was obtained by interviewing the district social worker responsible for each child's supervision. Medical progress and school performance was assessed in each case. Following their period in care, 26 children have had an unsatisfactory outcome indicated by the presence, either alone or in combination, of abnormal physical development, emotional disturbance, poor educational progress and occurrence of further abuse. Rehabilitation at home after varying periods of time was attempted for 25 children, five of whom suffered further abuse. The prognosis was worse the older the child on reception into care and the more placements while in care.

Life outcomes and satisfaction ratings of multihandicapped adults / David P. WACKER in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-5 (October 1983)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 25-5 (October 1983) . - p.625-631 Titre : Life outcomes and satisfaction ratings of multihandicapped adults Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : David P. WACKER, Auteur ; Dennis C. HARPER, Auteur ; W. Jack POWELL, Auteur ; Alfred HEALY, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.625-631 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Ten and 20 year longitudinal data were collected on 180 multihandicapped adults. Subjects completed a 50-item questionnaire which was divided into five sections: (a) living circumstances, (b) physical status, (c) social situation, (d) education, and (e) vocational training and employment. Respondents provided both outcome data and their satisfaction with those outcomes. The results indicated that most lived at home, were financially dependent and were not married. However, they reported that they were satisfied with these life outcomes and that they were very satisfied with their social activities. Few significant differences separated the age groups, suggesting that societal and legal changes over the last 20 years have had a limited impact. The variable most strongly related to life outcome and satisfaction with life outcome was functional status. In addition, perceived (self-reported) functional skills were highly correlated with more objective clinical ratings of functional status.

A population-based case-control study of anencephalus and spina bifida in a low-risk area / Marc A. STRASSBURG in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-5 (October 1983)

STRASSBURG, Auteur ; Lowell E. SEVER, Auteur ; Sander GREENLAND, Auteur ; Lawrence D. PORTIGAL, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.632-641 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : For the period 1973 to 1977, a total of 536 cases of anencephalus and spina bifida were ascertained in Los Angeles County, California, a low-risk area, and compared with a 2 per cent random sample of all live births in the county. Women with Spanish surnames had an elevated risk for anencephalus and to a lesser extent for spina bifida; Blacks were at lowest risk, especially for spina bifida. The occurrence of a previous fetal death was a strong risk factor for anencephalus but there was no association between socio-economic status and either of the defects. Advanced maternal age was a stronger risk factor for spina bifida than for anencephalus but, as in other studies in low-risk areas, no increased risk was observed among teenage mothers. Paternal age did not show any independent association after controlling for mother's age. Finally, the association of high birth-order with the birth defects was weakened greatly after simultaneous adjustment for age and ethnicity.

The problems associated with the determination and interpretation of 'therapeutic' levels are discussed, including the justification of applying to children the results of studies of adults. It is concluded that plasma-level determinations are of great value in specific circumstances, but that more study is needed to take into account the multiplicity of variables involved.
