Titre : Exploring an objective measure of overactivity in children with rare genetic syndromes Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rory O'SULLIVAN, Auteur ; Stacey BISSELL, Auteur ; Georgie AGAR, Auteur ; Jayne SPILLER, Auteur ; Andrew SURTEES, Auteur ; Mary HEALD, Auteur ; Emma CLARKSON, Auteur ; Aamina KHAN, Auteur ; Christopher OLIVER, Auteur ; Andrew P. BAGSHAW, Auteur ; Caroline RICHARDS, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Child Humans Smith-Magenis Syndrome/complications Angelman Syndrome/complications/diagnosis Tuberous Sclerosis/complications Intellectual Disability/complications Actigraphy Angelman syndrome Children Hyperactivity Objective Overactivity Questionnaire Rare genetic syndromes Smith-Magenis syndrome Tuberous sclerosis complex Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Overactivity is prevalent in several rare genetic neurodevelopmental syndromes, including Smith-Magenis syndrome, Angelman syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis complex, although has been predominantly assessed using questionnaire techniques. Threats to the precision and validity of questionnaire data may undermine existing insights into this behaviour. Previous research indicates objective measures, namely actigraphy, can effectively differentiate non-overactive children from those with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. This study is the first to examine the sensitivity of actigraphy to overactivity across rare genetic syndromes associated with intellectual disability, through comparisons with typically-developing peers and questionnaire overactivity estimates. METHODS: A secondary analysis of actigraphy data and overactivity estimates from The Activity Questionnaire (TAQ) was conducted for children aged 4-15 years with Smith-Magenis syndrome (N=20), Angelman syndrome (N=26), tuberous sclerosis complex (N=16), and typically-developing children (N=61). Actigraphy data were summarized using the M10 non-parametric circadian rhythm variable, and 24-hour activity profiles were modelled via functional linear modelling. Associations between actigraphy data and TAQ overactivity estimates were explored. Differences in actigraphy-defined activity were also examined between syndrome and typically-developing groups, and between children with high and low TAQ overactivity scores within syndromes. RESULTS: M10 and TAQ overactivity scores were strongly positively correlated for children with Angelman syndrome and Smith-Magenis syndrome. M10 did not substantially differ between the syndrome and typically-developing groups. Higher early morning activity and lower evening activity was observed across all syndrome groups relative to typically-developing peers. High and low TAQ group comparisons revealed syndrome-specific profiles of overactivity, persisting throughout the day in Angelman syndrome, occurring during the early morning and early afternoon in Smith-Magenis syndrome, and manifesting briefly in the evening in tuberous sclerosis complex. DISCUSSION: These findings provide some support for the sensitivity of actigraphy to overactivity in children with rare genetic syndromes, and offer syndrome-specific temporal descriptions of overactivity. The findings advance existing descriptions of overactivity, provided by questionnaire techniques, in children with rare genetic syndromes and have implications for the measurement of overactivity. Future studies should examine the impact of syndrome-related characteristics on actigraphy-defined activity and overactivity estimates from actigraphy and questionnaire techniques.

Titre : Sleep disorders in rare genetic syndromes: a meta-analysis of prevalence and profile Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Georgie AGAR, Auteur ; Chloe BROWN, Auteur ; Daniel SUTHERLAND, Auteur ; Sean COULBORN, Auteur ; Chris OLIVER, Auteur ; Caroline RICHARDS, Auteur Article en page(s) : 18 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Congenital Abnormalities/epidemiology Humans Prevalence Sleep Wake Disorders/epidemiology Syndrome Genetic syndromes Intellectual disability Meta-analysis Sleep disorders Sleep profile Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Sleep disorders are common in people with intellectual disability (ID) and autism, with growing evidence of diverse sleep profiles across ID associated genetic syndromes. Documenting the prevalence and profile of specific sleep disorders in syndromes will quantify syndrome-driven 'risk', inform prognosis and enhance understanding of aetiology of sleep disorders. METHOD: Following PRISMA guidelines for meta-analysis, we searched Ovid PsycINFO, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, Web of Science and PubMed Central with use of syndrome-specific keywords and 60 sleep-related search terms. We screened and extracted papers that reported sleep disorder prevalence data for five or more individuals within a genetic syndrome, and applied quality criteria to produce a quality-effects prevalence model of six types of sleep disorder across nineteen syndromes. Relative risk estimates were calculated for the prevalence of each sleep disorder in each syndrome. RESULTS: Two hundred and seventy three papers were identified, generating 463 prevalence estimates for Angelman, CHARGE, Cornelia de Lange, Down, fragile X, Prader-Willi, Rett, Smith-Magenis and Williams syndromes, mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS disorders), neurofibromatosis and tuberous sclerosis complex. Prevalence estimates were higher in genetic syndromes than published equivalents for typically developing individuals, with few exceptions. Between-syndrome differences for some disorders were evident; sleep-disordered breathing was most prevalent in MPS disorders (72-77%), while excessive daytime sleepiness was highest in Smith-Magenis syndrome (60%). Conversely, insomnia, which was reported at a higher rate than TD estimates in all syndromes except fragile X, was not associated with specific genetic risk. This suggests insomnia could emerge because of the individual's environment or associated developmental delay, rather than any specific genetic syndromes. LIMITATIONS: Due to the broad scope of the meta-analysis, only syndromes previously identified as reporting preliminary sleep research were included. Other syndromes may also experience elevated prevalence rates of specific types of sleep disorder. Only English language papers were included. CONCLUSIONS: Differing prevalence rates between types of sleep disorder suggest differing causal mechanisms, such as cranio-facial morphology in Down and Prader-Willi syndromes and the build-up of mucopolysaccharides in MPS disorders. Priorities for clinical assessment and intervention for sleep disorders are discussed.
