Fall experiences of ambulatory children and adults with cerebral palsy: A qualitative study using thematic content analysis

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 673-680, May 2026.
Abstract Aim To qualitatively assess the causes, adaptations, and psychosocial impact of falls, and solutions for safer environments, as shared by individuals diagnosed with cerebral palsy (CP). Method Ambulatory adults with CP (n = 165; age median [interquartile range], range: 30 years [25–50], 18–76 years); 101 females, 59 males, five non‐binary/not ...

Abnormal cerebellar connectivity and plasticity in isolated cervical dystonia.

PLoS ONE, 2019
There is increasing evidence that supports the role of the cerebellum in the pathophysiology of dystonia. We used transcranial magnetic stimulation to test the hypothesis that patients with cervical dystonia may have a disrupted cerebellar cortical ...

Spatial Discrimination Threshold Abnormalities are not Detected in a Pilot Study of DYT6 Dystonia Mutation Carriers [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Spatial discrimination thresholds (SDTs) assess somatosensory integration, and provide a window into better understanding the pathophysiology of dystonia. They are abnormal in some focal dystonias, but normal in DYT1 dystonia.

Visual compensation in cervical dystonia

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 2019
Introduction: Visual-spatial processing can be affected in people with cervical dystonia (CD). These impairments have almost exclusively been observed in laboratory studies, but the impact of visuo-spatial impairments on daily activities is unclear. Here, we investigated how people living with CD visually explore the environment.
