Few prospective studies have examined school mobility in children in foster care. This study described the school moves of 86 such children and 55 community comparison children (primarily Caucasian), living in a medium-sized metropolitan area in the Pacific Northwest who were approximately 3 to 6 years old at the study start. Additionally, the effects of moves from kindergarten through Grade 2 on academic and socioemotional competence in Grades 3 through 5 were examined. A greater number of early school moves was associated with poorer later socoemotional competence and partially mediated the effects of maltreatment and out-of-home placement on socioemotional competence. This was the case only for children with poorer early learning skills in kindergarten. Implications for preventive intervention are discussed.

The safety and feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation and exercise therapy for the treatment of cervicogenic headaches: A randomized pilot trial.
Headache
January 2025
Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Objective: Our primary objective was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with exercise therapy for the treatment of cervicogenic headache. Our exploratory objectives compared symptoms of headache, mood, pain, and quality of life between active and sham transcranial direct stimulation combined with exercise therapy.
Background: Cervicogenic headache arises from injury to the cervical spine or degenerative diseases impacting cervical spine structure resulting in pain, reduced quality of life, and impaired function.
Background: Kirschner wire (K-wire) and intramedullary (IM) screw fixation are accepted techniques for treatment of unstable proximal phalanx fractures, but comparative reports are lacking. This study aimed to evaluate early clinical outcomes following treatment with K-wire or IM fixation.
Methods: A retrospective review of all proximal phalanx fractures treated surgically at a single center by multiple surgeons was performed from May 1, 2019 to March 1, 2024.
Prevalence of and risk factors for osteoporosis and fragility fracture in adults with cerebral palsy: A systematic review.
Dev Med Child Neurol
January 2025
Centre for Endocrinology and Metabolism, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton, VIC, Australia.
Aim: To systematically review the prevalence and incidence of osteoporosis, osteopenia, low bone mass, and fragility fracture in adults with cerebral palsy (CP), and identify the risk factors for osteoporosis and fracture.
Method: A systematic literature search was performed in the MEDLINE, PubMed, CINAHL, AMED, Cochrane Reviews, EMBASE, and EBM database reviews from inception until May 2024. Search terms covered a combination of keywords for CP, fracture, osteoporosis, incidence and prevalence, and risk factors.
Background: The aging of the world's population and the increase in sedentary lifestyles are leading to an increase in walking impairments at older ages. Here, we aimed to comprehensively discuss walking in the context of an aging population; and identify and agree on a list of future research priorities and policy actions.
Methods: We followed a participatory approach and held a multidisciplinary two-day workshop on October, 2023 in Barcelona, Spain, with experts in the fields of aging and walking, and participants from the general public.
Comparing the effectiveness of different exercise interventions on quality of life in stroke patients: a randomized controlled network meta-analysis.
BMC Neurol
January 2025
Graduate School of Physical Education, Myongji University, Mingzhi Road, Churen District, Yongin, 17058, Gyeonggi Province, Republic of Korea.
Background: This study evaluates the comprehensive impact of different exercise interventions on the quality of life in stroke patients through network meta-analysis, aiming to provide scientific evidence for developing more effective rehabilitation programs and improving patients' physical, psychological, and social functions.
Methods: This systematic review, registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024541517) and following PRISMA guidelines, searched multiple databases (PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, Cochrane, Ebsco) until November 1, 2024. Studies were selected based on the PICOS criteria, including RCTs on stroke and exercise.
