Auditory and visual evoked potentials of schoolboys with spelling disabilities / Roger BYRING in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-2 (April 1985)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 27-2 (April 1985) . - p.141-148 Titre : Auditory and visual evoked potentials of schoolboys with spelling disabilities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Roger BYRING, Auteur ; Timo JARVILEHTO, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.141-148 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : EEG evoked potentials were studied in 23 young adolescent poor spellers and 21 controls. Findings typical of poor spellers were long auditory evoked potential (AEP) latencies and low amplitudes of early AEP deflections. A high frequency of spelling errors concerning the word as a whole was associated with low AEP P50 and P300 amplitudes. Poor reading was associated with high AEP sustained potential amplitudes and a long AEP P185 latency. Generally, poor spellers seem to have problems with the early filtering processes of of attention, whereas spelling errors concerning the word as a whole seem to be associated with problems of late attentional processes. The abnormal findings in the poor spellers are interpreted in terms of a brain maturational delay that presents as an attentional disorder.

FITZ, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.155-160 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : For asphyxiated term infants, prediction of neurological outcome based on clinical criteria alone is not always reliable. We have used changes in tissue density on CT scan (known to represent hypoxic-ischaemic injury) as an adjunct to clinical examination to assess the severity of cerebral injury. The study population comprised 56 term newborns with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy. Scans were performed with a General Electric 8800 scanner and classified as Normal, Patchy, Diffuse or Global according to the extent of areas of decreased density (DD). These were correlated with neurological outcome (i.e. Normal, Minor handicap, Major handicap, Indefinite or Death). Death or major handicap occurred in only two of 14 infants in the combined Normal or Patchy DD groups but in 26 of 29 in the combined Diffuse or Global groups. This correlation was highly significant (p less than 0.0005). 13 classified as Indefinite were normal at age three to 10 months but were excluded from analysis because of the short follow-up. The data demonstrate that CT scanning is a valuable adjunct to neurological examination for assessment of cerebral injury in the asphyxiated term infant.

Assessments included a Three-Component-Scale for the Landau reaction, the Touwen Scale for the Landau reaction, the Bayley Scales of Infant Development Motor Scale, and the Movement Assessment of Infants Muscle Tone Scale. A statistically significant relationship was found between gestational age (preterm vs. fullterm birth) and scores on the hip and kicking subcomponents on the Three-Component-Scale for the Landau reaction, and also between gestational age at birth and scores on the summary of tone-extremities and total risk score items on the Movement Assessment of Infants. Although preterm and fullterm infants may not show differences in scores on motor developmental level assessments, variations in postural reactions and muscle tone may be present at four months of age.

The first symptoms of the disorder occurred between seven and 16 years of age, and the length of the illness before treatment varied from 1 1/2 to 12 months. All six patients were in the first clinical stage of the disorder. After a limited period of follow-up there has been no clinical improvement. Nil or low levels of interferon were found in CSF two hours after intravenous injection, but CSF levels of interferon were maintained for at least 24 hours after intrathecal injections. Side-effects of interferon included pyrexial reactions, especially after high-dose intravenous therapy (six), lethargy (four), a transient rise in blood pressure (two) and a reduction in platelet count (six). Staphylococcus epidermidis was grown from the CSF of one patient.

The estimated incidence of spina bifida was 0.69/1000. It did not vary over the 10 years, seasonally, or in the urban vs. rural areas. The incidence for whites was three times that for non-whites. Reporting of spina bifida on the birth certificate was found for 52 per cent. Fetal loss in the children's mothers was similar to that for controls. However, there was a high number of therapeutic abortions just prior to the conception of the child with spina bifida. Oral contraceptives were used in the early months of the affected pregnancy more frequently than in controls. Recurrence risk was 3.2 per cent. Almost 12 per cent of the children with spina bifida had other major malformations. Even when the deceased probands were discounted, the malformation rate was higher than in the general population. Siblings of affected children had a less impressive but still increased rate of malformations.

Most stages of locomotion occurred at slightly later ages among the neurologically unimpaired preterm infants than among those born at term (age corrected for prematurity). There was no difference between preterm and term infants with regard to the number and types of pathways of locomotion, or to age at onset and type of first movements through space. By 9.5 months of age, 95 per cent of term infants and 92 per cent of preterm infants showed some ability to move through space. The infants with severe cerebral palsy had considerable delay in the development of locomotion, but this occurred to only a minor extent when the degree of cerebral palsy was mild or moderate. Most stages of locomotion occurred at slightly earlier ages for boys than for girls, but these differences were not significant at any age. The number and types of pathways of locomotion, and types of first movements, were comparable in both sexes.

Multifocal spikes or repetitive paroxysmal activity of various kinds were seen in the EEGs at times of crisis. There was a lag in the EEG returning to normal after ammonia levels had returned to normal. Citrulline remained elevated in all cases.

Means are reported for the samples from 17 medically uncomplicated infants and for the larger group (42 to 45) of infants with medical complications. The latter group was divided according to diagnosis and medication. All groups had significantly higher levels of all compounds in comparison with older children and adults. There were few significant subgroup differences in the group with complications. In both the normal and complicated groups a number of significant correlations were observed between the compounds themselves and with other physiological measures.

The latter group was divided according to diagnosis and medication. All groups had significantly higher levels of all compounds in comparison with older children and adults. There were few significant subgroup differences in the group with complications. In both the normal and complicated groups a number of significant correlations were observed between the compounds themselves and with other physiological measures.

BYE, Auteur ; Brian E. KENDALL, Auteur ; J. WILSON, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.215-222 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Five patients (four female, one male) with multiple sclerosis were managed at the Hospital for Sick Children, London, between January 1978 and June 1983. The age at which first symptoms occurred varied from three to 14 years. Focal seizures occurred in three cases and an encephalopathic process in three cases, and there was evidence of progressive intellectual deterioration in all five children. Computed tomography showed low-density lesions in the white matter of all five. Electroencephalograms were abnormal in all cases, and in two the disturbance was severe. Oligoclonal bands were present in the cerebrospinal fluid of two children. Four of the five children had abnormal responses to pattern-reversal stimulus.

The children were tested with a standard kinesthesiometer and two kinds of scores were recorded. Absolute Error scores reflected the children's deviation from the target and Total Movement scores reflected their over-all range of movement. There were significant differences between groups in Absolute Error scores, with the cerebral-palsied children performing worse than the controls and the spastic children worse than the athetoid children. All three groups tended to underestimate the targets and there were no significant differences in Total Movement scores.

Contrary to current reports in the literature, the children disclosed a semiology similar to that of adults, particularly for frequency and distribution of 'positive signs' such as paraphasias. The reasons for this discrepancy are discussed and an hypothesis of early intrahemispheric specialization is proposed.

Prolonged focal seizures with secondary generalization resulted in hemiparesis and developmental retardation, and CT demonstrated cerebral hemiatrophy. Later the infant developed recurrent focal and atonic convulsions, which were refractory to multiple anticonvulsants. Possible etiological factors, especially the pharmacological mechanisms by which theophylline can produce focal convulsions and result in brain damage, are discussed.
