Unlabelled: Neurodevelopmental disorders can be studied from two distinct perspectives: an internal approach, which examines the causes and consequences of these disorders; and a contextual approach, which considers the role of the family in the lives of children and adolescents. Research has demonstrated that the most significant form of family involvement in families raising a child with NDD is through homework. This involvement has been shown to have an emotional impact on children with neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD or dyslexia. The objective of this study is to review published articles on homework and neurodevelopmental disorders, with particular attention to the role of the family and the emotional health of children and families.

Method: The review followed the PRISMA guidelines. The final sample consisted of 11 articles, with samples ranging from less than 30 participants to more than 100 at the international level.

Results: The results demonstrate the complex methodological and bibliometric picture of the final sample, as well as the many emotional and contextual variables that influence the relationship between homework and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Conclusions: Future research should consider how emotional health affects the engagement of families with children with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Background/aim: Functional asymmetry in the upper extremities may occur in infants with neuromotor problems due to neurodevelopmental or musculoskeletal disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Infant Motor Activity Log (IMAL-T), which assesses the frequency (how often) and quality (how well) of the affected arm usage during activities in infants with functional asymmetry in the upper extremities.

Materials And Methods: The IMAL-T was administered face-to-face to the parents of 102 infants [60 infants at high risk of developing cerebral palsy (CP) and 42 infants with brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI)], aged 6-24 months, with functional asymmetry in the upper extremities.

Background: Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) are rare but severe neurodevelopmental disorders characterised by early-onset seizures often combined with developmental delay, behavioural and cognitive deficits. Treatment for DEEs is currently limited to seizure control and provides no benefits to the patients' developmental and cognitive outcomes. Genetic variants are the most common cause of DEE with KCNQ2 being one of the most frequently identified disease-causing genes.

Growing evidence supports a role for dysregulated neuroinflammation in autism. However, the underlying mechanisms of microglia-evoked neuroinflammation in the development of autistic phenotypes have not been elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of microglial S100 calcium-binding protein A9 (S100A9) in autistic phenotypes.

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are complex neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by impairments in social interaction, communication and repetitive activities. Gut microbiota significantly influences behavior and neurodevelopment by regulating the gut-brain axis. This review explores gut microbiota-influenced treatments for ASD, focusing on their therapeutic applications and mechanistic insights.
