Efficacy of pediatric integrative manual therapy in positional plagiocephaly: a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2021
Background Positional plagiocephaly frequently affects healthy babies. It is hypothesized that manual therapy tailored to pediatrics is more effective in improving plagiocephalic cranial asymmetry than just repositioning and sensory and motor stimulation.

Barriers and facilitators influencing parental adherence to prevention strategies for deformational plagiocephaly: Results from a scoping review

open access: yesChild: Care, Health and Development, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 852-869, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Deformational plagiocephaly can be prevented in many healthy infants if strategies are implemented early after birth. However, despite efforts to disseminate accurate information, parental adherence to evidence‐based prevention strategies is a challenge.

Facial asymmetry in children with either unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis or positional posterior plagiocephaly

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 216-223, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background In unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis (ULC), the posteriorly situated lambdoid suture of the cranial vault fuses prematurely. Positional posterior plagiocephaly (PPP) causes flattening of the posterior side of the head, either through external forces or through underlying differences in brain development.

Microcornea, iris and choroidal coloboma, and global developmental delay caused by TENM3 pathogenic variants in a Chinese patient

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022
To date, only four cases of MCOPS15 were reported and the clinical features of the patients were variable, which indicate potential broad phenotypic spectrum. In this study, using trio‐whole exome sequencing, we identified biallelic variants (L1471F and E661G) of TENM3, in a 6 months Chinese boy. Our findings expand the mutational spectrum of the TENM3

Anatomical Engineering and 3D Printing for Surgery and Medical Devices: International Review and Future Exponential Innovations

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Three‐dimensional printing (3DP) has recently gained importance in the medical industry, especially in surgical specialties. It uses different techniques and materials based on patients’ needs, which allows bioprofessionals to design and develop unique pieces using medical imaging provided by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

A case of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva associated with a novel variant of the ACVR1 gene

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2021., 2021
FOP is a rare genetic disease representing the most severe and disabling condition due to heterotopic ossification associated with gain‐of‐function mutations of the ACVR1 gene. We describe here a little patient with an early clinical presentation of the disease carrying a novel substituton of the ACVR1 causative gene. Abstract Background Fibrodysplasia

Direct Anthropometry Overestimates Cranial Asymmetry—3D Digital Photography Proves to Be a Reliable Alternative

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
This study compared manual and digital measurements of plagiocephaly and brachycephaly in infants and evaluated whether three-dimensional (3D) digital photography measurements can be used as a superior alternative in everyday clinical practice.

X‐rays had little value in diagnosing children’s abnormal skull shapes, and primary care clinicians should refer concerns to specialist teams

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 1330-1334, April 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim This study examined the consensus between the primary care radiological diagnosis and specialist clinical diagnosis of abnormal skull shapes in children. Methods We performed a retrospective review of children treated at the National Paediatric Craniofacial Centre at Children's Health Ireland, Dublin, Ireland.

Paleopathological Findings of Dry Skulls with Plagiocephaly

open access: yesActa Medica, 2006
In literature, plagiocephaly is defined as abnormal asymmetrical head shape with unilateral flattening of the anterior and/or posterior part of the skull. It is classified as synostotic or deformational.

Effectiveness of pediatric integrative manual therapy in cervical movement limitation in infants with positional plagiocephaly: a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2021
Background Positional plagiocephaly (PP) is a cranial deformation frequent amongst children and consisting in a flattened and asymmetrical head shape. PP is associated with excessive time in supine and with congenital muscular torticollis (CMT).
