“…Importantly, we demonstrated associations between sensory modulation patterns, functional disability, and poorer QOL in adolescents with persistent pain. These findings are consistent with lower participation in daily activities of typically developing, healthy children with sensory modulation disorder [31,32], and the poorer physical and mental health-related QOL reported for healthy adults with atypical sensory modulation [18]. The adolescents in this study had moderate to high Copyright © 2018 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.…”

Objectives: Sensory modulation patterns contribute to altered pain perception and disengagement in activities; atypical sensory modulation patterns have been associated with higher pain sensitivity, catastrophizing, and reduced function.Objectives of this study were to ascertain whether: adolescents with persistent pain had atypical sensory modulation patterns, atypical sensory modulation was associated with reduced functioning and higher pain, and pain catastrophizing mediated the relationship between sensory modulation and functional disability. Methods: Adolescents (N = 70, Females = 63, Males = 7) attending tertiary level interdisciplinary team assessment for persistent pain completed sensory modulation (Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile), pain catastrophizing (Bath Adolescent Pain Questionnaire), pain intensity, functional disability (Functional Disability Index), and quality of life (Pediatric Quality of Life (QOL) Scales) questionnaires.Results: Adolescents with persistent pain had atypical patterns of sensory modulation compared to normative data. Sensory modulation patterns were not associated with pain intensity; however, higher sensitivity was associated with greater disability (r = .36, p < .01), and lower registration of sensation was associated with poorer emotional (r = .31, p < .01), social (r = .35, p < .01), and school-related (r = .49, p < .001) QOL.Sensory modulation, pain intensity, and catastrophizing contributed independently to disability; catastrophizing mediated sensory sensitivity and both functional disability and emotional QOL. Discussion:This study is the first to demonstrate that atypical sensory modulation patterns are associated with poorer function for adolescents with persistent pain, suggesting that individualized sensory-informed interventions can potentially facilitate participation in daily activities and improve QOL.

“…Despite self-care activities being one of the main occupational areas of interest in childhood, they are rarely part of motor assessment tools, and consequently, relevant information is often lacking in studies regarding the daily impact of DCD. Self-care and instrumental ADL are two of the area's that children with DCD and other neurodevelopmental conditions most struggle with [7,[40][41][42]. Therefore, assessment protocols of motor coordination in daily living aimed to identify children at risk for DCD should systematically include self-care and instrumental ADL evaluation.…”

Motor performance is influenced by individual, environmental, and task constraints. Children perform differently according to individual (i.e., sex), environmental (i.e., country), and task (i.e., type of activity) factors. However, little is known about the effect of the interaction between sex and country factors across different activities of daily living (ADL) learning, participation, and performance. The main aim of this study was to examine the relationship between sex, country, and type of activity in motor-based ADL learning, participation, and performance in five-to-eight-year-old, typically developing children. Additionally, we aimed to compare the prevalence of probable Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) across sex and country. The DCDDaily-Q was used to assess ADL learning, participation, and performance in 300 age and sex-matched children from Spain and The Netherlands. The prevalence of probable DCD was determined based on the total ADL performance score. Results showed that differences in ADL learning, participation and performance differed across sex and country (p < 0.05). Prevalence of probable DCD was statistically similar in both countries. These findings show that daily participation and performance in typically developing children may be influenced by individual, country, and task constraints, and that country and sex may have different influences on particular tasks.

“…Sensory dysregulation can impact on children's participation and enjoyment of tasks because of their atypical reactions to sensory stimuli . Difficulties associated with sensory dysregulation were categorized into five functional impairment areas: (1) decreased social skills and involvement in occupational performance areas; (2) reduced frequency, duration, or complexity of adaptive responses; (3) impaired self‐confidence or self‐esteem; (4) poor family and daily life skills; and (5) impaired gross‐motor, fine‐motor, and sensory‐motor skill development…”

Sensory dysregulation in tic disorders is associated with executive dysfunction and comorbidities

Background Tics are conceptualized as a sensorimotor phenomenon with a premonitory urge typically described by patients. As observed in other neurodevelopmental disorders, we have observed sensory dysregulation symptoms, such as tactile hypersensitivity to clothing, in children with tic disorders; however, formal clinical research in this area is limited. Objective To define the presence of sensory dysregulation symptoms in tic disorders, and their clinical associations. Methods Prevalence of sensory dysregulation in 102 children with tic disorders was compared to 61 age‐ and sex‐matched healthy controls. Sensory dysregulation, executive function, and quality of life data were obtained through the Short Sensory Profile‐2, Sensory Profile‐2, Sensory Processing Measure, Behaviour Rating Inventory of Executive Function‐2, and Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory. Tics were assessed with the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale. Results Children with tics, in the presence of comorbidity, had elevated sensory dysregulation compared to healthy controls (P < 0.001). There was a positive correlation between sensory dysregulation and global executive difficulties in children with tics and comorbidity (n = 87; rho = 0.716; P < 0.001) and a negative correlation of sensory dysregulation with quality of life (n = 87; rho = –0.595; P < 0.001). In children with tics, there was an association between sensory dysregulation and number of comorbidities (P < 0.001). Conclusion In the presence of comorbidity, children with tic disorders have broad sensory dysregulation symptoms beyond the premonitory urge. There was a statistically significant association between sensory dysregulation and executive function difficulties and the presence of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric comorbidity. Sensory dysregulation can be considered neurodevelopmental symptoms, providing insight into the neurobiology of tics and opportunities for therapeutic intervention. © 2019 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society
