1. 1. Antecedents of Cerebral Palsy in children born at term - according to subtype, motor severity and accompanying impairments

   Författare :Kristina Ahlin; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cerebral Pares; Risk factors; Epilepsy; Cognitive impairment; Spastic hemiplegia; Spastic diplegia; Spastic tetraplegia; Dyskinetic CP; Motor impairment; Accompanying impairments; Antecedents;

   Sammanfattning : Aims: To explore antecedents of cerebral palsy (CP) according to subtype, severity of motor impairment and accompanying impairments (epilepsy and/or cognitive impairments) in relation to neuroimaging patterns. Material and methods: Case control studies were performed in a population-based serie of children with CP born at term (n=309), matched with a control group (n=618). LÄS MER

3. 2. Autism and ADHD in children with cerebral palsy

   Författare :Magnus Påhlman; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cerebral palsy; autism spectrum disorder; attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder; children; impairments; screening; prevalence; neuroimaging;

   Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder (autism) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are likely underdiagnosed in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Early identification of impairments is important for adequate understanding and support. LÄS MER

4. 3. Visual and proprioceptive control of arm movements : studies of development and dysfunction

   Författare :Birgit Rösblad; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vision; proprioception; reaching; pointing; arm movements; child; motor impairments; sensorimotor development;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this dissertation was to examine the role of sensory information for control of goal-directed arm movements in children. The role of visual and proprioceptive information on the target for end point accuracy was examined in normal 4- to 12-year- old children (Study I), and in children with motor impairments (Study II).

5. 4. How to Make Bicycling Safer - Identification and Prevention of Serious Injuries among Bicyclists

   Författare :Maria Ohlin; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bicycle; Injuries; Crashes; ICF; HRQoL; Sickness Absence; Health; Disabilities; Impairments;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to guide current and future safety improvements that address serious injuries among bicyclists. The thesis is compiled by four studies, of which the first two aimed to identify injuries leading to loss of health from a biopsychosocial perspective, and the two following studies aimed to understand how these injuries occur and how they can be prevented.

7. 5. Perception and control of upper limb movement: Insights gained by analysis of sensory and motor variability

   Författare :Dmitry Domkin; Mats Djupsjöbacka; John Jeka; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; proprioception; kinaesthesia; position sense; movement sense; position-matching; velocity-discrimination; correlation; uncontrolled manifold; variability; synergy; upper limb; motor control; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; Medicine; medicin;

   Sammanfattning : Chronic neck-shoulder pain is associated with impairments of proprioception and motor control. Thus, assessment of proprioceptive and motor function may be powerful tools both for research and clinical practice. LÄS MER
