Cognitive functioning over 2 years after intracerebral hemorrhage in school ‐aged children
This study examined cognitive outcomes after spontaneous ICH in school‐aged children with serial assessments over 2 years after stroke. MethodSeven children (age range 6–16y, median 13; six males, one female; 57% white, 43% black) presenting with spontaneous ICH (six arteriovenous malformations) were assessed at 3 months, 12 months, and 24 months after stroke. The Pediatric Stroke Outcome Measure (PSOM) quantified neurological outcome and Wechsler Intelligence Scales measured cognitive outcomes: verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. ResultsPSOM scales showed improved neurolog...

Early predictors of psychosocial functioning 5 years after paediatric stroke
This study aimed to evaluate psychosocial outcomes in children 5 years after paediatric stroke and explore the contribution of early presenting factors. MethodThirty‐one children (19 males and 12 females) with arterial ischemic stroke were involved in this prospective, longitudinal study. Children underwent intellectual assessment at 12 months poststroke and parents completed questionnaires rating their own mental health and their child's functioning at 12 months and 5 years poststroke. ResultsAt 5‐year follow‐up, psychological and social function were significantly poorer than normative expectations. Exploration of ...

Association of transcallosal motor fibres with function of both hands after unilateral neonatal arterial ischemic stroke
The objective of this study was to investigate the involvement of the motor fibres of the corpus callosum after unilateral neonatal arterial ischemic stroke (NAIS) of the middle cerebral artery territory and the relationship to both ipsilesional and contralesional hand function. MethodUsing high‐resolution structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI, and magnetic resonance diffusion‐tractography, we compared the midsagittal area of the motor part of the corpus callosum (defined by the fibres connecting the precentral gyri) between 33 7‐year‐old children after unilateral NAIS and 31 typically develop...

Neurocognitive outcomes in children with unilateral basal ganglia arterial ischemic stroke and secondary hemidystonia.
We examined intellectual function, academics, and several aspects of executive function in children with unilateral basal ganglia stroke during childhood, comparing those with dystonia and those without. Although groups did not differ in terms of lesion size, we found significantly lower performance on measures of verbal and nonverbal reasoning, inhibitory control, and academic ability in children with secondary dystonia compared to those without. In contrast, there were no significant group differences on parent ratings of their child's executive function in daily life. These findings suggest that maladaptive reorganizati...

Secondary attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder following perinatal and childhood stroke: impact on cognitive and academic outcomes.
Abstract This cross-sectional retrospective clinical research study examines a large group of children followed within a pediatric stroke program and a developmental attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) clinic at the Hospital for Sick Children, between May 2004 and June 2016. All children with a history of stroke who participated in a neuropsychological assessment between the ages of 4 and 18 years were considered for inclusion. From a sample of 275 participants with a history of stroke, 36 children (13.1%) received a diagnosis of secondary ADHD. Children with secondary ADHD were younger at the time of...

Psychosocial function in the first year after childhood stroke
This study aims to describe psychosocial function within the first year after childhood stroke, and to identify factors associated with outcome. MethodThirty‐seven children were involved in a prospective, longitudinal study investigating recovery over the first year after childhood stroke. Children's social functioning was assessed at 6‐months and 12‐months poststroke and psychological function at 12‐months poststroke, using standardized measures. ResultsMean social function was poorer at both 6‐months and 12‐months poststroke, compared to prestroke. Psychological problems were more common than expected, with e...

Cognitive outcomes of pediatric stroke.
This study retrospectively examines cognitive outcomes in 41 children with a history of stroke, with reference to age at stroke, laterality, region and mechanism of stroke. In the course of recovery, neuropsychological measures of intellectual functioning and memory were administered at two time points, whilst executive functioning, attention and academic skills were administered at one time point. As predicted, children with stroke performed significantly worse compared to normative expectations on all neuropsychological measures. Up to two thirds of children scored in the borderline impaired and impaired ranges on at lea...
