Children and adolescents with SGCE-associated myoclonus dystonia showed a progression of motor symptoms during a mean follow-up of 4 years. Patients developed a significant increase in the severity of axial and limb myoclonus, as well as dystonia during writing. Consequently, patients reported a marked decline in their speech, writing, and walking abilities. Up to 74% of patients had a psychiatric diagnosis, most commonly anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

This study outlines efforts to establish expert consensus on key therapist-supported intervention principles for interventions spanning the NICU-to-home transition. A modified Delphi technique was utilized to seek opinions from independent and relevant interdisciplinary experts on the use of interventions during the transition from NICU to home. Results showed strong consensus on four key intervention principles: building caregiver-child relationships, optimizing infant development, providing education and knowledge sharing, and enriched environments.

• Patients with cerebral palsy (CP) undergoing ankle fracture open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) were at increased odds of 90-day adverse events.
• Many of the 90-day adverse events related to previously described comorbidities associated with CP.
• Patients with CP undergoing ankle fracture ORIF experienced increased rates of prolonged length of stay.

• Negative community attitudes about disability affect confidence and self-perception, and hinder participation, in young adults with cerebral palsy (CP).
• Close friends can act as a buffer for young adults with CP, fostering their participation and bringing joy.
• A government-funded disability support scheme has improved access to services.
• However, high levels of advocacy are required to obtain appropriate support.
• Online learning enhanced the participation and engagement of young adults with CP enrolled at university during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A series of qualitative participation-focussed interviews with young adults with CP highlighted the complexity they faced during the transition into adulthood. In this study, young adulthood was described as a time of exploration, change, and growth. The overarching theme of ‘branching out into adulthood’ captured the broad and varied hopes, plans, and experiences of participation for these young people.
