Development of Clinical Milestones in Parkinson’s Disease After Bilateral Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation [PDF]
Objective Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients does not halt disease progression, as these patients will progress and develop disabling non-levodopa responsive symptoms.

Current evidence for treatment with nusinersen for spinal muscular atrophy : a systematic review [PDF]
Recent discovery of nusinersen, an antisense oligonucleotide drug, has provided encouragement for improving treatment of spinal muscular atrophy. No therapeutic options currently exist for this autosomal recessive motor neuron disorder.

Objectives The later achievement of gross motor milestones during infancy is associated with adiposity in early childhood. However, the associations between gross motor development and adiposity after entering primary school are unclear.

Early motor trajectories predict motor but not cognitive function in preterm- and term-born adults without pre-existing neurological conditions [PDF]
Very preterm (VP; 0.05). Motor problems in childhood were homotypically associated with poorer motor competence in adulthood. Similarly, early cognitive problems were homotypically associated with adult cognitive outcomes. Thus, both motor and cognitive

Early motor developmental milestones and level of neuroticism in young adulthood:a 23-year follow-up study of the Copenhagen Perinatal Cohort [PDF]
BackgroundStudies investigating early developmental factors in relation to psychopathology have mainly focused on schizophrenia. The personality dimension of neuroticism seems to be a general risk factor for psychopathology, but evidence on associations ...

Breastfeeding and developmental delay: Findings from the Millennium Cohort Study [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether the duration and exclusivity of breastfeeding affects the likelihood of gross and fine motor delay in infants and examined the effect of factors that might explain any observed differences.

A closer look at ARSA activity in a patient with metachromatic leukodystrophy. [PDF]
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease mainly caused by a deficiency of arylsulfatase A activity. The typical clinical course of patients with the late infantile form includes a regression in motor skills ...
