Abstract This large scale computer‐assisted telephone survey was undertaken to explore the prevalence, severity, treatment and impact of chronic pain in 15 European countries Israel. Screening interviews identified respondents aged ≥18 years with for in‐depth interviews. 19% 46,394 willing participate (refusal rate 46%) had suffered ≥6 months, experienced last month several times during week. Their intensity ≥5 on a 10‐point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (1 = no pain, 10 worst imaginable)...
We compared the developmental status of school-age children with single-suture craniosynostosis (case group) and unaffected (control group). Within case group we performance distinguished by location suture fusion (sagittal, metopic, unicoronal, lambdoid).
Introduction Air pollution is linked with poor neurodevelopment in high-income countries. Comparable data are scant for low-income countries, where exposures higher. Longitudinal pregnancy cohort studies optimal individual exposure assessment during critical windows of brain development and examination neurodevelopment. This study aims to determine the association between prenatal ambient air pollutant children aged 12, 24 36 months through a collaborative, capacity-enriching research...
The linear analogue score can be used in Chinese patients with relative accuracy provided it has been well explained. error from employing a vertical presentation is significantly less than that horizontal one. choice of upward or downward orientation matter convenience. Younger and those higher intelligence are quicker to understand the concept make better judgement placing mark where they wish be. A scale seems suitable method record study pain population.
The hypothesized association between single-suture craniosynostosis and neurodevelopment remains unclear, given the methodologic limitations of previous studies, most notably absence control groups.Standardized measures were used to assess 125 matched case-control pairs shortly after cases first diagnosed with isolated fusions sagittal, metopic, lambdoid, or right left coronal sutures. Participants varied in age from 2 24 months.Cases had significantly lower mean standardized scores than...
We assessed the neurodevelopment of infants with and without deformational plagiocephaly (DP), at an average age 6 months.The Bayley Scales Infant Development III (BSID-III) were administered to 235 case subjects 237 demographically similar, control participants. Three-dimensional head photographs randomized rated for severity deformation by 2 craniofacial dysmorphologists who blinded status.We excluded no photographic evidence DP 70 judged have some degree DP. With age, gender,...
<h3>Objective</h3>To determine whether the heightened risk of developmental delays seen in infancy patients with deformational plagiocephaly (DP) continues into toddler years.<h3>Design</h3>Longitudinal study comparing development children and without DP, assessments (mean age, 7 months) at age 18 months.<h3>Setting</h3>Infants DP were recruited from a large craniofacial center, unaffected infants research registry.<h3>Participants</h3>The included 227 232 previously diagnosed DP.<h3>Main...
Object Although most infants with single-suture craniosynostosis (SSC) appear to have neurodevelopmental test scores in the average range, SSC has been associated cognitive and motor delays during infancy. Whether when surgery improves such deficits are not yet known. The authors aimed compare pre- postsurgical status of patients those control without craniosynostosis. Methods conducted a large, multicenter, longitudinal study 168 115 controls synostosis who were similar age, race, sex,...
OBJECTIVES: Infants and toddlers with deformational plagiocephaly (DP) have been shown to score lower on developmental measures than unaffected children. To determine whether these differences persist, we examined development in 36-month-old children without a history of DP. METHODS: Participants included 224 DP 231 diagnosed DP, all who had followed longitudinal study since infancy. confirm the presence or absence pediatricians blinded children’s case status rated 3-dimensional cranial...
<h3>Objective</h3>To evaluate the hypothesis that 3-year-old children with single-suture craniosynostosis would receive lower neurodevelopmental scores than a comparable group of born patent sutures.<h3>Design</h3>Longitudinal comparison study.<h3>Setting</h3>Five tertiary care craniofacial centers.<h3>Participants</h3>Patients (cases) and without (controls). Patients diagnosed from 2002 to 2006 were eligible as cases. Controls frequency-matched cases on age, sex, race, socioeconomic status,...
Background: The OPENMinds Primary Care group is a of European primary care physicians (PCPs) with an interest in pain management, formed to improve the understanding and management chronic care. Objective: A survey was conducted assess challenges nonmalignant (CNMP) Europe, focusing particularly on assessment, opioid therapy, educational needs. Methods: questionnaire developed for online use by PCPs 13 countries (Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,...
: media-1vid110.1542/5972296741001PEDS-VA_2018-2373Video Abstract BACKGROUND: Studies have revealed an association between positional plagiocephaly and/or brachycephaly (PPB) and development, although little is known about long-term outcomes. We examined cognition academic achievement in children with without PPB, testing the hypothesis that who had PPB as infants would score lower than controls.We enrolled 187 school-aged a history of 149 controls. Exposures were presence or absence...
Prenatal exposure to multiple phthalates is ubiquitous, and yet few studies have evaluated these exposures as a mixture in relation child autistic traits behavioral problems. To assess cumulative associations between prenatal phthalate mixtures behaviors, including effect modification by timing sex. Analyses included 501 mother/child pairs from the multicenter pregnancy cohort The Infant Development Environment Study (TIDES). Nine maternal urinary metabolites were measured early late...

Participants Thirty 30 site attending their general practitioner pain. Interventions specifically designed patient profile questionnaire identify...
Intrathecally delivered baclofen has been used as a treatment for severe spasticity since 1984. Despite this, there are uncertainties surrounding the benefits of and costs involved. The authors assessed evidence identified cost/benefit ratio continuous intrathecal infusion in spasticity.A systematic literature review was conducted to estimate effect on function quality-of-life (QOL) measures patients with spasticity. Outcomes were related standard QOL scores potential gains quality-adjusted...
Objectives To examine trajectories in academic achievement for children with oral clefts versus unaffected classmates and explore predictors of persistently low among clefts. Design Longitudinal cohort study a population-based sample. Setting participants Children born from 1983 through 2003 were identified the Iowa Registry Congenital Inherited Disorders matched to by sex, school/school district month year birth. Main outcome measures Academic was measured Testing Programs data. Outcomes...
