“…In this study, prematurity, low birth weight, recurrent abortion, neonatal seizures, and jaundice were significantly more common in the CP group than in the control group. This finding is consistent with other reports of significantly higher rates of prematurity and low birth weight in patients with CP 18,31–33…”

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most frequent cause of motor handicap. The present door-to-door survey was conducted in Al-Quseir City, Egypt, to investigate the epidemiology of CP. All inhabitants were screened by three neurologists. Medical and neurological examinations were performed for all residents and suspected cases of CP were confirmed by meticulous neurological assessment, brain magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography, and testing with the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale. Forty-six of 12,788 children aged ≤18 years were found to have CP, yielding a childhood prevalence of 3.6 (95% confidence interval 1.48–2.59) per 1,000 live births. Five adults (aged 19–40 years) among 13,056 inhabitants had CP, giving an adult prevalence of 0.4 (95% confidence interval 0.04–0.72) per 1,000. The risk factors for CP identified in this study were premature birth, low birth weight, neonatal jaundice, neonatal seizures, and recurrent abortion in mothers of children with CP.

“…Turkey has a high rate of consanguineous marriage (21.1%) , and between 16.1% and 23.8% of the parents of patients with CP were found to have consanguineous marriages (16,17). Our finding of consanguineous marriages in 21.4% of the parents is similar to the 21% penetration reported by Serdaroğlu et al (4).…”

ÖzetAmaç: Bu makalenin amacı İstanbul 'daki serebral palsi (SP) olgularının demografik özellikleri, klinik tipi, risk faktörleri ve bazı klinik özelliklerini içeren epidemiyolojik özelliklerini araştırmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Eğitim, araştırma ve üniversite hastanelerinden oluşan 11 merkezin katıldığı çok merkezli ve retrospektif bir çalışmadır. 2005 ve 2007 yılları arasında eğitim, araştırma ya da üniversite hastanelerinde kayıt edilen SP olgularının demografik ve klinik verileri, İstanbul Serebral Palsi Çalışma Grubunca toplandı. Bulgular: Yaş ortalamaları 7,27±4,63 (2-18) yıl olan 730 olgu çalışmaya alındı. Olguların 429'u (%58,8) erkek, 301'i (%41,2) kızdı. Klinik tiplendirmede, spastik tip %91, karma tip %3,6, diskinetik tip %3,2 ve ataksik tip % 0,7 olarak bulundu. Olguların %51,9'una yaşamlarının ilk 6 ayı içinde tanı konmuştu, %24,6'sı 2. altı ay; %23,5 'i ise 12. aydan sonra tanı almıştı. Yüzde 32 olguda konuşma bozukluğu, %23,1'inde mental gerilik ve %20,9'unda epilepsi mevcuttu. AbstractObjective: The objective of this study is to identify epidemiological characteristics of patients with cerebral palsy (CP) in Istanbul, including demographic information, clinical types, risk factors, and some clinical features. Material and Methods: This is a retrospective and multicenter study, with the participation of 11 training and university hospitals in Istanbul. Demographic and clinical data of patients with CP presenting to university and training hospitals in Istanbul between 2005 and 2007 were recorded. Data were collected by the Istanbul Cerebral Palsy Study Group (ICPSG). Results: A total of 730 patients with a mean age of 7.27±4.63 (2-18 years) were enrolled into the study; 429 (58.8%) of the patients were male and 301 (41.2%) were female. During clinical typing, it was seen that 91% of the patients were spastic, 3.6% was mixed, 3.2% was dyskinetic, and 0.7% was ataxic. Also, 51.9 % of the patients had a diagnosis of CP during 0-6 months of age, 24.6% had the diagnosis

Introduction: The cerebral palsy presents different degrees and consequences, and its causes not very known. Thus, this article objectified to identify the etiology factors and evaluate the gross motor function of students with cerebral palsy of the municipal public of Florianópolis (Santa Catarina, Brazil) system education. Materials and Methods: This study was classified as descriptive, diagnostic and transversal. Twenty-two subjects with cerebral palsy that obeyed the inclusion approaches were selected. The instruments used were antecedent form and the Gross Motor Function Measure-88. Statistical analysis was based on the descriptive and inferencial statistics. Results: The average age was eight years, with 63.3% of the female gender and 36.7% male. The prevalent palsy was quadriplegia (35.7%). The preponderant etiologic factor was perinatal asphyxia (42.8%). The larger percents of gross motor function occurred in the measures A, B, E and D of the ataxic cases, and the less percents in the measures C, D and E of the choreoathetosis cases. Discussion: Multiple etiologic factors on prenatal, perinatal and postnatal periods were identified. Lowest scores in the Gross Motor Function occurred in the quadriplegia and choreoathetosis cases, in which the girls had a total score greater than the boys in the average value, however, this difference was not significant.
