Data obtained from the latter group were used to derive multiple regression equations for the prediction of reading and spelling scores. An index was derived for each adult, expressing actual scores relative to those predicted. A definition of severe and borderline reading disability was validated, using the scores from the questionnaire.

Cerebral function monitor in the neonate. I: Normal patterns / Uma L. VERMA in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-2 (April 1984)

Gestational age and sleep-wake states could be differentiated and normal patterns were defined.

This study describes CFM patterns of 31 neonates with birth asphyxia. Three distinct types emerged: (1) a normal pattern compatible with gestational age was uniformly associated with favorable clinical outcome; (2) a completely disorganized pattern was associated with sever injury and fatal outcome; and (3) a more subtle pattern showed reversal to a more immature gestational age. The three infants with the third pattern all survived, but with varying degrees of neurological deficit. It is concluded that the CFM can be of advantage in predicting outcome for asphyxiated neonates.

Development of consolidated sleep and wakeful periods in relation to the day/night cycle in infancy / Susan COONS in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-2 (April 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-2 (April 1984) . - p.169-176 Titre : Development of consolidated sleep and wakeful periods in relation to the day/night cycle in infancy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan COONS, Auteur ; Christian GUILLEMINAULT, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.169-176 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Periods of sustained sleep were analyzed to assess the development of sleep-state organization and structure during the first six months of life. Infants first establish consolidated sleep and wakeful periods, which then become oriented to the 24-hour day/night cycle. As infants mature they gradually show greater sleep 'efficiency', and at onset of sleep, REM periods become less likely. The longest sleep period progressively becomes associated with the dark period of the 24-hour cycle. This study also assessed the sequences of NREM-REM sleep-cycle organization during the first six months of life. Although individual infants may have a significant correlation between duration of sleep and latency at onset of sleep, the over-all direction is not constant, nor is an 'age effect' apparent during the first six months. The data support the hypothesis that states of alterness , which develop independently in the perinatal period, become integrated in early infancy.

WYKE, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.177-183 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A group of 10 children with spina bifida and shunted hydrocephalus, aged between 7 1/2 and nine years, was tested for memory of two types of verbal material and two types of pictorial material. Their performance was compared with a group of children with matched IQ and with a group of average IQ, all matched for age and sex. The parameters investigated were learning ability; immediate and delayed recall, and also long-term recall/recognition; and reacquisition of material learned after a period of 24 hours. The hydrocephalic children and the matched IQ group were significantly poorer than the average IQ group on all tasks except for 'Memory for a Short Story' Comparisons between the hydrocephalic and matched IQ groups showed that the former group was significantly poorer only in a 'Memory for Words' test. It is suggested that this discrepancy in the performance of hydrocephalic children in learning unrelated, as opposed to connected, meaningful verbal material may reflect a deficit in their ability to use appropriate semantic strategies at the level of encoding.

All children were from a low-income district of Ankara, Turkey. Epileptic children did as well as controls on the recognition of a geometric designs test but were significantly inferior at drawing these designs, suggesting some deficit at a cognitive level involving coordination of perception and motor activity. In language functioning, they were significantly poorer on the receptive test but not on the expressive test. They had significantly more behavioural problems than either the control group or their own siblings, those related to fears and anxiety being most prominent. However, in comparison with their siblings, they also had significantly more problems related to conduct- disobedience and inattention. These findings provide further evidence for the importance of some form of counselling for school-age epileptic children and their families.

In addition, the extent of interprofessional collaboration in presurgical assessment was described.

Using non-preferred hand skill to investigate pathological left-handedness in an unselected population / Dorothy V. M. BISHOP in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-2 (April 1984)

M. BISHOP, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.214-226 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper considers whether pathological influences affect hand-preference among children with epilepsy or mental retardation, for whom there is no evidence of gross motor defect. Data on two tasks of manual skill were analysed for a group of over 12,000 children. The predicted association between poor skill with the non-preferred hand and left-handedness was confirmed for the match-sorting test, and was particularly strong among children with a neurological abnormality (excluding cerebral palsy). No association between poor skill and left-handedness was found for the preferred hand. The data agreed well with a model which estimates hand preference it it occurs on the previously preferred side. The probability of pathological left-handedness among left-handers in an unselected population is about 0.05--this is much higher for children with a history of neurological disease, epilepsy or mental retardation, and for children with poor performance of the non-preferred hand.
