Aim: To identify developmental trajectories of impaired hand function in infants aged 3 to 15 months with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP).

Method: Sixty-three infants (37 male; median gestational age 37 weeks [interquartile range 30-39.1 weeks]) recruited as part of a randomized trial with a confirmed diagnosis of unilateral CP were included.

To compare pain characteristics, impact of pain and characteristics of patients with painful root-filled teeth with and without signs of inflammatory dental disease. This cross-sectional study was performed in the Public Dental Health services, Region Örebro County, Sweden. Adult patients with ≥1 root-filled tooth identified at their regular check-up were included and assigned to one of two groups; those with ≥1 sign of inflammatory dental disease (DD+) and those without any such sign (DD-).

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of constraint-induced movement therapy (Baby-CIMT) and bimanual therapy (Baby-BIM) in infants at high risk for unilateral cerebral palsy.
  • A total of 96 infants were randomly assigned to either therapy group, with both interventions yielding significant improvements in hand development, though neither was found to be superior to the other.
  • Infants starting therapy before 6 months of corrected age showed greater enhancements in hand function compared to those who began later, indicating the importance of early intervention.

Aim: To investigate what happens to cross-sectionally identified root-filled teeth over a 6-year period, regardless of the time that elapsed since primary root canal treatment, in a cohort of adult patients regularly attending a Public Dental Service. A secondary aim was to investigate how the cumulative events affecting root-filled teeth over the same time were associated with variables obtained from a baseline examination.

Methodology: Adult patients with ≥1 previously root-filled tooth and regularly attending the Public Dental Service in Örebro County were enrolled for study participation in 2015.

: Early interventions for infants at high risk of cerebral palsy (CP) are recommended, but limited evidence exists. Our objective was, therefore, to evaluate the effects of the family-centered and interprofessional Small Step early intervention program on motor development in infants at high risk of CP (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03264339).
