In Part 1, 15 of these children of primary-school age were compared with controls matched for mental age on a non-verbal task during which irrelevant stimuli were present or absent. Interference effects of the irrelevant stimuli were larger and more persistent for the SBH children. In Part 2, the children and their controls were tested for comprehension of relational words, with and without irrelevant information. The two groups performed similarly when there was no irrelevant information, but the SBH children exhibited vocabulary deficiencies when irrelevant items were present. These findings support the original hypothesis of a relationship between distractibility and language deficits.

The findings were compared with those at the 18-months evaluation. At 16 to 18 years neurosensory impairments, cerebral dysfunction and organic behaviour syndromes were predominant, but the majority of children had multiple handicaps. A higher proportion had hearing loss. Although all the hearing-impaired children were begun in oral-based educational programs, 90 per cent of those with severe to profound hearing-loss diagnosed before the age of 18 months had changed to total or manual communication. Those with mild to moderate hearing-loss diagnosed after 18 months primarily communicate orally. The educational implications of these findings are discussed.

Permanent cortical visual impairment in children / Sharon WHITING in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-6 (December 1985)

JAN, Auteur ; Andrew Q. MCCORMICK, Auteur ; Olof FLODMARK, Auteur ; Peter K. H. WONG, Auteur ; Kevin FARRELL, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.730-739 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Fifty patients with permanent cortical visual impairment were evaluated. They had a characteristic behaviour profile, usually with residual sight but poor visual attention. 30 of the 50 also had damage to the anterior visual pathway. Visual evoked potential mapping was shown to have a clear advantage over visual evoked responses, and using that in conjunction with CT and clinical data enabled several subgroups of cortical visual impairment to be identified. The diagnosis probably is more common than previously recognised, and should be suspected when there is greater delay in visual development in other areas and the degree of visual loss is unexplained by ocular findings. Using traditional criteria for cortical blindness may mean that many children are not diagnosed, which has serious implications for their rehabilitation.

Maturation of cortical potentials evoked by tibial-nerve stimulation in newborns, infants and children aged four and eight years / Lada CINDRO in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-6 (December 1985)

PREVEC, Auteur ; Aleksandar BERIC, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.740-745 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study traced changes in cortical activity (SsCEP) evoked by electrical stimulation of leg nerves during the period of fast morphological and functional development of the nervous system from birth to eight years of age. The study revealed complex waveform changes in the SsCEP during this period. At birth low-amplitude potentials with well-defined, simple, three-phasic waveform (P1, N2P2N3, P3) were present in only eight of 26 newborns: no SsCEP could be detected in 13 cases. At one year the SsCEP had a higher amplitude and the simple three-phasic waveform was seen in the majority of cases (15 of 22). At four years an SsCEP with a notch in the middle negative wave was the most common waveform, observed in nine of 18 cases. At eight years adult-like SsCEPs prevailed in the records: they showed well-defined peaks P1 (corresponding to P40 of adults), N2, P2 and N3 (probably corresponding to N75 of adults). Such waveforms were observed in 16 of 24 children. In newborns P1 had a latency of 37 . 5 +/- 2 . 54ms: at one year the latency decreased to 32 +/- 3 . 81ms and increased again in older children, corresponding to increasing body-length.

Within the population of infants who are normal by conventional criteria (term infants with appropriate weight and head-circumference for gestational age), a group with relatively small heads was defined by each of four different methods. Developmental outcome measures included the Bayley Mental and Motor Scales at eight months, Stanford-Binet IQ at four years and Wechsler Intelligence Scales IQ at seven years. No clinically meaningful differences in developmental outcome were found between the infants with relatively small heads and the remainder of the infants.

In one family the syndrome is seen in its full form in the index case and his uncle; three cousins of the index case also show varying degrees of expression of the disorder. In the other family a brother and sister are affected. This case report illustrates the varying expression of the disorder and the change in facial appearance with age. A polygenic basis of inheritance is supported and it is suggested that the typical facial appearance in infancy is the best means of identifying the disorder, as broad thumbs and toes may not be apparent or may be only a borderline abnormality.

Trends in neuromotor behavior of preterm and fullterm infants in the first year of life: a preliminary report / Delia GORGA in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-6 (December 1985)

Three groups (healthy fullterm, healthy preterm, sick preterm) were compared at three, six, nine and 12 months of age. In general, fullterm infants were more similar in their responses to the Neuromotor Behavioral Inventory and more consistently advanced than some preterm infants at all four examinations. The greatest distinction between fullterm and both preterm groups occurred at three and six months. By nine and 12 months fullterm and healthy preterm infants had more similar development, but some sick preterm infants continued to develop differently. It appeared that the influence of prematurity on neuromotor behavior, regardless of whether the infant was healthy or sick, was greatest before nine months of age. After nine months, health appeared to be a contributing factor to the infants' development.

In 1983, 60 of the 76 over 18 years of age were contacted. 39 had been employed at some time since leaving high-school, but only 17 were employed at the time of the survey. Of those who had worked, over half had achieved or exceeded their vocational predictions. Those in competitive employment were more likely to be mildly disabled, to have higher IQs and to have been educated in integrated schools. Those who had never been employed were older and less independent in self-care and travel in the community. However, intelligence was not a major factor in distinguishing the employed from the never-employed. Recommendations are made for integrated education and job training in competitive settings, for community-based assessments and for family involvement in all aspects of planning to improve the vocational prospects of cerebral-palsied children.

Statistically significant changes were found for three of the four motions tested. Hip extension limitation decreased from 10 degrees at nine months to 3 degrees at 24 months. At nine months external rotation was greater than internal rotation in all cases, but with increasing age the mean values for the two motions began to approximate each other. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between infants with the greatest hip extension limitation and the degree of external rotation. There was also a significant negative correlation between the least hip extension limitation and greater abduction.

Effect of clonidine on platelet alpha 2-adrenoreceptors and plasma norepinephrine of children with Tourette syndrome / Faye SILVERSTEIN in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-6 (December 1985)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 27-6 (December 1985) . - 793-799 Titre : Effect of clonidine on platelet alpha 2-adrenoreceptors and plasma norepinephrine of children with Tourette syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Faye SILVERSTEIN, Auteur ; Charles B. SMITH, Auteur ; Michael V. JOHNSTON, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : 793-799 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Clonidine, an alpha 2-adrenoreceptor agonist, is useful for treating some patients with Tourette syndrome, and it has been suggested that their noradrenergic receptors are 'subsensitive'. The authors measured plasma norepinephrine and specific binding of 3H-clonidine and 3H-yohimbine, an alpha 2-adrenoreceptor antagonist, to receptors on platelet membranes from children with Tourette syndrome. Before clonidine treatment, plasma norepinephrine, the maximum number of binding sites and the dissociation constants for both ligands were the same as for the controls. After two weeks of treatment there was little clinical improvement, but the number of binding sites for 3H-yohimbine decreased and plasma norepinephrine also decreased in four of the five patients. Over the next six months all five patients continued to improve clinically, but both indices of noradrenergic activity returned towards baseline values. The data suggest that clonidine's action may be independent of its prominent effects on alpha 2-adrenergic receptors and norepinephrine release.

Cerebrospinal fluid myelin basic protein immunoreactivity as an indicator of brain damage in children / S. D. LEVIN in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 27-6 (December 1985)

THOMAS, Auteur Année de publication : 1985 Article en page(s) : p.807-813 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) myelin basic protein (MBP) was measured blind by double antibody competitive inhibition radioimmunoassay (RIA) in 20 children who had seizures and 17 children with hydrocephalus. MBP values correlated with clinical outcome and mean maximum intracranial pressure (ICP) in the hydrocephalic group, and with type of convulsion in the epileptic group. A value of 20ng/ml or more was regarded as significantly raised. A significant rise in MBP levels could be demonstrated in those with ICP alone and in patients with additional problems, whose levels tended to be even higher. Hydrocephalic children with normal ICP and children with seizures had similar normal MBP levels, and in the latter group clinical outcome was not related to MBP levels. For individual patients CSF MBP is of little value as a prognostic indicator, or as a method of quantifying cerebral damage.

The first symptom was isolated dystonia of the left foot and later writer's cramp developed in the hands. Fluctuations of the dystonia occurred later in the course of the disorder, which were not related to the sleep-walking cycle. Complete remission of symptoms was obtained with low dosage of L-dopa. This case broadens the spectrum of fluctuating dopa-sensitive progressive childhood dystonias and provides evidence for writer's cramp being a form of focal dystonia.
