Impaired Cognitive Performance Occurs Within Children With...
Background: Impaired cognitive performance occurs in children with multiple sclerosis (MS). In adults, cognitive impairment (CI) is seen at the time of first attack suggesting a prodrome of disease progression prior to first onset of physical disability. Children who develop multiple sclerosis also have CI at time of diagnosis suggesting that actual disease onset occurs prior to manifestation of physical symptoms. It has not been reported whether children who go on to develop a clinical diagnosis of multiple sclerosis are delayed in acquiring early developmental milestones. Objective: To determine whether children with early onset MS are delayed in attaining early developmental milestones and whether children with MS diagnosis prior to the age of 11 years are more likely to need special education services. Methods: Pediatric-onset MS and cases and controls less than 18 years of age from 14 pediatric MS centers in the United States were studied. A questionnaire on environmental and genetic influences was completed by family members, capturing information on demographic and developmental history. Data on time of first walking unaided and acquisition of two word phrases were captured on MS and control groups. The need for special education services was captured in MS subjects only. Results: A total of 467 cases and 428 controls were enrolled. Patients with early onset MS prior to age 18 were not delayed in walking or using two word phrases compared to healthy controls.Show MoreRelatedUnit 2 study guide8637 Words à |à 35 Pagesclose, or open the gate.
