Article Synopsis
- Children with microcephaly experience various disabilities affecting their motor, cognitive, and communication skills, often resulting from heterogeneous causes such as mutations in the CASK gene that lead to specific conditions like MICPCH.
- A pilot study tested an intensive therapy on three girls with a CASK mutation, focusing on improving their motor skills, social interaction, and communication over 10 days of 4-hour daily sessions.
- The results showed significant developmental improvement, with each child gaining between 14 and 39 developmental months, indicating that targeted therapy can enhance functional skills in children with MICPCH.
