Associated movements as a measure of developmental age / Peter H. WOLFF in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-4 (August 1983)

WOLFF, Auteur ; C. E. GUNNOE, Auteur ; C. COHEN, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.417-429 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Fifty normal kindergarten and 50 first-grade children were examined three times at six-month intervals for synkineses to stress gaits and mirror movements to finger lifting, finger spreading, and timed motor maneuvers. Motor signs in the age-sensitive range showed substantial individual differences between children of the same chronological age. The frequency of associated movements changed reliably in the expected direction over a 12-month period, and within each domain of neuromotor function the individual motor signs conformed to a stable sequence of developmental stages. It is concluded that age-appropriate motor signs for associated movements are a reliable measure of developmental age, in contrast to chronological age, among elementary-school children.

The children were found to have more difficulty in spelling and reading these words than a group of children with normal speech who were matched for reading age. It is suggested that 'dyspraxic' children are subject to a phonetic spelling deficit which arises because of a difficulty in segmenting words at a speech-sound level.

According to teachers', parents' and self-rating questionnaires, the index children, especially those with MBD, showed extremely high rates of severe behavioural/experiential problems at follow-up. None had been treated with stimulants or other drugs directed at alleviating the symptoms of the neurodevelopmental disorder. It is argued that the high rates of disturbances according to the questionnaire ratings are a true reflection of the psychiatric ill-health in these children.

Neurobehavioural comparison of low-risk preterm and fullterm infants at term conceptional age / Fabrizio FERRARI in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-4 (August 1983)

The preterm infants were significantly inferior in orientation, motor performance, regulation of state and autonomic regulation. With the exception of autonomic regulation, the neurobehavioural clusters were more heterogeneous among the preterm group. The data suggest that low gestational age at birth, even following relatively normal pre-, peri- and neonatal development, is associated with a behavioural repertoire which is different, more heterogeneous and on average poorer than that of fullterm infants.

The effects of premature birth on parents and their relationship / Mary Anne TRAUSE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-4 (August 1983)

The results indicate that the birth caused a crisis in the immediate postpartum period, but that distress decreased once the babies were at home. At one month and seven months after discharge, parents of both preterm and fullterm infants described their feelings in similar ways--the only difference at one month was that mothers of fullterm infants were more upset than those in the preterm group. Parents of preterm babies became more attuned to each other with time than did parents of fullterm infants, and only preterm mothers became pregnant within the 26 months following their first baby's birth. Mothers in both groups rated themselves as more distressed than fathers throughout the study period, which suggests that within the low-risk preterm sample, becoming a mother for the first time had more impact than did giving birth prematurely.

In six cases CT scans did not return to their original state after ACTH therapy. Two illustrative cases are reported. There was a good correlation between the total dose of ACTH and the percentage decrease of brain parenchyma. It is concluded that 'cerebral atrophy' on CT scans may represent an accumulative effect of ACTH and that ACTH should be given with the utmost discretion, and in as low a dose as possible.

The average ages of onset and death were 2.47 and 11.77 years respectively. Most patients had a large head and short stature. Persistent diarrhoea was noted in 65 per cent of the patients. 76 per cent had an umbilical hernia. Right and left inguinal herniae were noted in 51 and 32 per cent respectively. Evidence of cardiovascular disease was found in 65 per cent of cases; and serious lower respiratory-tract disease occurred in 84 per cent. Induction of anaesthesia proved difficult or impossible in five boys. The disease pattern was dominated by the effects of neurological involvement, with initial developmental delay and behavioural disturbance, followed by regression, with convulsions and pyramidal tract signs. Death was due primarily to this neurodegenerative cachexia, with superimposed respiratory disease.

Stepwise discriminant analysis was used to obtain a classification function of outcome, based on clinical variables determined at two separate time-periods of examination: (1) the time of admission and (2) about 24 hours after onset of coma. 12 clinical variables were included in the stepwise procedure. Seven of these: coma severity, extra-ocular movements, pupils, motor patterns, blood pressure, temperature and seizure type, entered the classification function for the first time-period, data being available for 102 children. 75 per cent of these cases were correctly classified into one of five outcome groups and 8 per cent were seriously misclassified. Similarly, 67 per cent of the 66 children evaluated in the second time-period were correctly classified and 3 per cent seriously misclassified. The variables that entered the classification function in this second time-period were age, coma severity, motor patterns, blood pressure and seizure type. The data suggest that the analysis of clinical variables recorded early in the comatose state can provide predictive information, and stepwise discriminant analysis may be one method of determining the most likely outcome for individual cases.

For those with moderate hydrocephalus the aim was to avoid shunt surgery, and this was achieved in 31 of the 43 infants. In cases with severe hydrocephalus or when the cerebrospinal fluid was abnormal the aim was to delay shunt surgery until the optimum time, with a lower risk of complications. Five of 48 such infants avoided shunts and 30 achieved a worthwhile delay. Nine other children were treated with isosorbide following shunt complications. Toxic effects were infrequent, not severe, and reversible on stopping treatment or reducing dosage. 63 infants eventually had shunts inserted.

The development of children with congenital hypothyroidism / J. BIRRELL in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-4 (August 1983)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 25-4 (August 1983) . - p.512-519 Titre : The development of children with congenital hypothyroidism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : J. BIRRELL, Auteur ; J. M. PARKIN, Auteur ; G. J. FROST, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.512-519 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Standardised motor, intellectual and behavioural tests were undertaken in a group of 56 children in the north of England. All were aged between five years and 15 years 11 months and all had congenital hypothyroidism. The results were compared with those of a control group. The mean IQ of the hypothyroid group was found to be 1 to 2 standard deviations below the population mean. In the group there was no correlation between developmental measures and age at diagnosis but in a subgroup with bone-age evidence of prenatal hypothyroidism there was a correlation between age at diagnosis and both intellectual and motor development. Intellectual development was normal among those treated before one month of age, but there was some evidence of disturbed fine motor and cerebellar functions.

At follow-up for periods from three months to four years, 28 children are continent for at least three hours during the day and are dry at night. Two have had the device removed because of erosion and are still incontinent. 18 children empty their bladders completely, but 10 require clean intermittent catheterization to do so. None of the children has required revision of the device because of somatic growth.
