Predictive validity of developmental screening in young children with sickle cell disease: a longitudinal follow ‐up study
AimTo assess the predictive validity of developmental screenings in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) for academic outcomes and stroke risk. MethodParent questionnaires and medical record data were collected for a cohort receiving developmental screenings between September 2004 and May 2008 as toddlers or early school age. Screening outcomes were dichotomized (positive, negative) by a priori criteria. Questionnaires assessed school and social functioning, services received, and quality of life. Medical record data assessed general SCD morbidity and stroke risk. ResultsForty‐one toddlers (mean age 2y 5mo; 25 males, ...

Specifying the graphic characteristics of words that influence children ’s handwriting
AbstractResearch about the development of the graphomotor side of writing is very scarce. The goal of this study was to gain a better understanding of what constitutes graphic complexity of written material by determining the impact of graphic characteristics on handwriting production. In this end, the pen stroke of cursive handwriting was precisely described through an algorithm of detection of seven graphic characteristics: the number of angles, turn backs, curves in X and Y, pen-ups and modified links. Twenty typically developing children in grade 2 completed a single-word dictation task, composed of 48 items, on a digi...

Development and validation of the Pediatric Stroke Quality of Life Measure
AimTo develop and validate a disease‐specific parent proxy and child quality of life (QoL) measure for patients aged 2 to 18 years surviving cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) and arterial ischaemic stroke (AIS). MethodUtilizing qualitative and quantitative methods, we developed a 75‐item Pediatric Stroke Quality of Life Measure (PSQLM) questionnaire. We mailed the PSQLM and a standardized generic QoL measure, Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL), to 353 families. Stroke type, age at stroke, and neurological outcome on the Pediatric Stroke Outcome Measure were documented. We calculated the internal consiste...

Motor system plasticity after unilateral injury in the developing brain
In maturity, motor skills depend on the corticospinal tract (CST) and brainstem pathways that together synapse on interneurons and motoneurons in the spinal cord. Descending signals to spinal neurons that mediate voluntary control can be distinguished from peripheral sensory signals, primarily for feedback control. These motor system circuits depend initially on developmental genetic mechanisms to establish their connections and neural activity‐ and use‐dependent synaptic refinement during the early postnatal period to enable motor skills to develop. In this review we consider four key activity‐dependent developmenta...
