Abstract:
Cerebral Palsy is a brain disorder that affects a motor area. Parents who have a child with Cerebral palsy are usually sorrowful. They feel hopeless and inferior because of their inability to manage their stress, and their resilience is poor. The level of stress management for each parent is different. For that reason, parents join an online group created on the Facebook online. Among the typical objective of joining such groups is to share their experience of having children with cerebral palsy. Is there any positive effect of this sharing experience toward their resilience? This study used a mixed method to answer this question. The quantitative data are collected by using questionnaire with a scale of CD-RiSC resilience and scale of sharing experience Response. This quantitative data is then elaborated by interviewing the participants by using purposive sampling technique. The research found that the Facebook group indeed helps the parents in improving their resilience. It is achieved by additional information and knowledge they learn from the group.[Orang tua yang mendapati anaknya terfonis sebagai anak Cerebral Palsy mengalami kedukaan mendalam yang mengakibatkan ketidakpercayaan diri, dan putus asa. Hal itu diakibatkan ketahanan terhadap stres (resiliensi) rendah, oleh karena itu orang tua mengikuti sharing experiences penyandang Cerebral Palsy melalui Facebook Group orang tua anak Cerebral Palsy. Penelitian ini bertujuan menjawab pertanyaan adakah pengaruh sharing experiences penyandang Cerebral Palsy terhadap resiliensi orang tua anak Cerebral Palsy yang terhimpun dalam Facebook Group Orang Tua Anak Cerebral Palsy. Penelitian menggunakan methode kombinasi antara kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Penelitian menemukan bahwa Facebook Group berpengaruh pada peningkatan resiliensi orang tua anak cerebal palcy karena mereka mendapatkan pengetahuan dan informasi tambahan dari forum itu.]

Abstract:
Words matter. In utilizing language in a medical context, we should strive to communicate succinctly and clearly, conveying both continuity and understanding. This article seeks to put forward the error in continuing to use the term “cerebral palsy,” implying a unitary disease phenomenon, when the heterogeneous nature of this entity is self-evident. In an analogous fashion to that which occurred with autism (another neurodevelopmental disability), the transition in nomenclature to “cerebral palsy spectrum disorder” is put forward for the community's consideration.

Abstract:
Background: Cerebral Palsy is a disorder of movement and postural balance due to insult to the brain. The injury to the developing brain may be prenatal, natal or postnatal. The diagnosis is clinical mainly. The spastic Cerebral Palsy is classified into monoplegic, hemiplegic, diplegic, and quadriplegic types. There is a difference in the frequency of these types of Cerebral Palsy in different studies. The patterns of various forms of Cerebral Palsy emerge gradually with a delay in developmental milestones. A spectrum of associated developmental disabilities has been found to be common in these children. Management is through a multi-disciplinary approach. Objectives: To find out the frequency of different types of Cerebral Palsy and degree of associated developmental delay. Methodology: A cross sectional study was carried out for a period of six months (October 1, 2006 to March 31, 2007) at The Children’s Hospital & Institute of Child Health Lahore. 100 Cases diagnosed as Cerebral Palsy on clinical basis were assessed for the type of cerebral palsy and the degree of associated developmental delay. Results: Out of the total 100 patients 54% had quadriplegia, 32% had diplegia, 10% had himiplegia and 4% had monoplegia. The total fifty-four cases of quadriplegic cerebral palsy 54 had developmental delay and amongst them 4 (7%) had mild delay, 16 (30%) had moderate delay while 34 (63%) had severe delay. Amongst the total forty-six other three types of cerebral palsy 12 (26%) had mild delay, 6 (13%) had moderate delay and 28 (61%) had severe delay. The P-value was >0.05. Conclusions: Quadriplegic is the commonest type of CP, associated with the factors (peri-natal more than socio-demographic) and had significant effect on the developmental parameters.

Abstract:
La modélisation musculosquelettique est aujourd’hui utilisée dans de nombreux domaines tels que l’analyse de la marche pathologique et la simulation des traitements thérapeutiques et chirurgicaux. Dans le cadre de la paralysie cérébrale (PC), la prise en considération des spécificités des patients, des troubles neurologiques et des déformations osseuses est nécessaire. Etant donné que les techniques d’imagerie médicale sont encore marginales en routine clinique, le recours aux modèles génériques reste donc indispensable. Notre étude rétrospective vise le développement d’un modèle musculosquelettique (MMS) générique adapté aux enfants PC. Une première étude détermine les limites d’un tel modèle pour la marche normale, les marches pathologiques des enfants paralysés cérébraux, et les postures pathologiques imitées par une population saine. Une seconde étude propose une technique de calibration pour raffiner les paramètres du MMS à partir des données recueillies de l’analyse quantifiée de la marche (AQM). Ainsi, on a pu déduire que, même si les résultats estimés sont représentatifs pour les adultes sains, le MMS standard présente des limites concernant la cinématique et les forces musculaires prédites pour les enfants sains et les enfants PC. D’autre part, la procédure de calibration influe de façon positive sur les données prédites comme les activations musculaires et les forces musculaires. Ce travail montre que le MMS générique peut être calibré à partir des données de l’AQM afin d’améliorer les résultats du modèle. Cette technique pourrait représenter une nouvelle perspective dans les applications cliniques de la modélisation musculosquelettique
The analysis of pathological gait using musculoskeletal modeling is a promising approach to qualify and quantify the pathology as well as to monitor the potential recovery after therapy. When dealing with cerebral palsy, its specific neurological disorders and consequently bones deformities, specific-subject musculoskeletal models has been developed. The imaging techniques are still unaffordable in clinical practises. So, using the LifeMod software, we aimed to develop musculoskeletal model in a retrospective study to evaluate the accuracy of surgical treatments on cerebral palsy. Two principles studies are performed. First, relying on the accuracy of a rescaled generic adult skeleton, the musculoskeletal modeling limitation have been determined when applying normal gait and pathological crouch and jump postures, imitated by healthy adults and children. Second, calibration technique had been developed to refine the model’s parameters based on data collectid from the subject. Results from musculoskeletal modeling are compared to gait analysis date. As results, even if the model outputs gave correct results with healthy adults, the standard rescaled musculoskeletal modeling showed limits on predicted kinematics and muscle forces for healthy and CP children. The refinement of subject-specific joint parameters and driving the model with the experimental GRF data have a huge influence in model outputs and improve quantitatively the predicted muscle activations and forces. This work pointed out that the parameters of a rescaled generic musculoskeletal moded can be refined and personalized to improve model’s outcomes. It may represent a new perspective in clinical applications

Abstract:
The thesis examined the importance for movement control of perceptual information about the relation of the actor to the environment and about the actor's action capabilities and bodily characteristics. In four experiments it was shown that providing better information improves perceptuo-motor performance in Cerebral Palsied (CP) children. The first two studies investigated whether CP and normal children find abstract tasks more difficult than concrete tasks. CP children were found to perform better on a concrete bang-the-drum-task than on an abstract move-as-far-as-you-can task. The underlying movement kinematics were also different, although the movements involved in both tasks were indistinguishable by eye. Thus, improving information about the CP child's relation to the environment by making a task more concrete improves movement control. The importance of perceiving one's action capabilities was studied in an interceptive timing task in which CP and nursery children were striking an accelerating ball. The results showed that both groups controlled initiation of the striking movements by the value of an optic variable tau specifying time-to-contact under constant velocity (thus treating the accelerating ball as if it was travelling at a constant speed). However, the affected hand of the CP children initiated the striking actions at a significant larger tau value, thus allowing for its relative slowness. The children's striking movements were also analysed in more detail to test a theory of how deceleration and timing of the hand are conjointly controlled.

Abstract:
Background. Children with cerebral palsy (CP) encounter a number of orthopedic complications as a result of abnormalities in motor function. One of the most significant complications is fragility fractures, occurring in up to 23% of children in prior reports. Despite a growing literature on how to best interpret bone densitometry in children, little research has determined optimal utilization of dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in children with CP in order to characterize the patients' bone health status. This study outlines the use of the mechanostat theory of bone physiology to classify osteopenia and interpret bone complications in this population. The mechanostat theory posits that muscle forces have the greatest impact on bone strength and that low bone mass will result from one of two pathologic circumstances: a primary disorder of abnormally low bone mass despite normal muscle forces, and a secondary disorder of bone mass due to abnormally low muscle forces on bone. The later category, secondary osteopenia, is hypothesized to be the bone health state of most children with CP, due to the motor dysfunction resulting from brain injury in these children. Bone morbidity is expected to be greater in those with osteopenia. Methods. Single, community-based, rehabilitation centre, cross sectional study of 53 subjects with CP age 2-15 years of age. Subjects underwent a baseline interview, examination, x-ray, laboratory and DXA bone densitometry. Calculations of z-score values for total body bone mineral content and muscle mass were made based on published normal children. The z-scores determined the classification of osteopenia with -2 defined as abnormally low bone mineral content or muscle mass. Results. The subjects (51% females) had a mean age of 9 years (s.d.=3.8, range=2.5-15.8). All types and severity of CP were represented in the sample. Normal DXA bone parameters were seen in 24 children, with 11 children classified as having primary osteopenia, five having secondary osteopenia and three with both primary and secondary (mixed). Three children had fragility fractures. Using the classification proposed herein, the fractures occurred only in children defined as having osteopenia. Having at least one bone complication and joint subluxation were more prevalent in the osteopenic subjects compared to non-osteopenic subjects (Chi square, p<0.05). Using z-scores for bone mineral content as an outcome variable, only one CP specific factor, the Gross Motor Function Classification System, was an important independent variable (beta=-0.48, R2=0.18, p<0.05). The final model also included age (beta=0.52, R2=0.34, p<0.05) and gender (beta=-0.36, R2=0.12, p<0.05), showing lower z-scores in males and those of younger age. Use of anti-convulsants, type of CP, family history, calcium and vitamin D intake did not contribute to the model. Measures of pain or quality of life, although worse in osteopenic subjects, were not significantly related to reductions in bone mineral content, when severity of CP was controlled. Conclusions. Using the mechanostat theory to interpret bone density DXA measurements is a more physiologic way to interpret bone health in children and appears foundationally sound in this sample of children with CP. In the reported subjects orthopedic complications were more common in those with osteopenia, and fragility fractures were accurately classified in functional terms according to whether the osteopenia resulted from a primary or secondary bone defects.

Abstract:
In 2011, 19.2 million households in the United Kingdom had access to the Internet. Online social networks (OSN) such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Bebo and YouTube have proved to be the most popular Internet activity (Office of National Statistics, 2011). 49% of these users have updated or created an OSN profile and are making over 24 million visits a month (Dutton, 2009). These websites are often directed at a broad market i.e. people without disabilities. Unfortunately people with disabilities, especially those with physical impairments, often have a greater risk of experiencing loneliness than people without a disability as a result of their mobility, access and or communication impairments. Conventional communication methods such as face-to-face communication, telephone communication and text message communication are often difficult to use and can limit the opportunities for people with disabilities to engage in successful socialisation with family members and friends (Braithwaiteet al, 1999). Therefore people with disabilities can often see online communication, especially OSNs, as an attractive alternative. Previous studies such as Braithwaite et al(1999), Ellis and Kent (2010) and Dobransky and Hargittai (2006) suggests that OSNs are opening a new world to individuals with disabilities. They help these individuals, especially those exhibiting lifelong physical challenges to carry out social interaction which they would otherwise not be able to do within the analogue world. However due to inaccessible features presented in the technology for example features requiring JavaScript, hard-coded text size and Captcha (AbilityNet, 2008; Cahill and Hollier, 2009 andAsuncion, 2010) access to OSNs is often difficult. The overarching purpose of this PhD research is to understand the experiences and challenges faced when people with the physical disability cerebral palsy (cp) use OSNs. It is estimated that 1 in 400 children born in the UK is affected by cp (Scope Response, 2007). The disability can present itself in a variety of ways and to varying degrees. There is no cure for cp, however management to increase social interaction especially through technological innovations is often encouraged (United Cerebral Palsy, 2001; Sharan, 2005 and Colledge, 2006). Previous studies such as AbilityNet (2008), Cahill and Hollier (2009), and Boudreau (2011) have explored mainstream OSNs use from the perspective of users with disabilities, i.e. blind and visually or cognitively impaired, but have placed great emphasis on investigating inaccessibility of OSNs without involving these users. Other studies such as Manna (2005) and Belchiorb et al (2005) have used statistical methods such as surveys and questionnaires to identify Internet use among people with unspecified disabilities. Conversely Asuncion (2010) has taken a broader approach involving OSN users using high-level taxonomies to classify their disabilities, and Marshall et al (2006) focused on a specific disability type, cognitive impairments, without considering the variety of limitations present within the disability. Other studies such as Pell (1999) have taken a broader yet more specific approach and looked at technology use, especially computer and assistive technology among people with physical disabilities, where only 7 out of 82 surveyed had cp. Whereas Braithwaiteet al (1999) focused on individuals with disabilities, where most were classified has having a physical disability. However the study does not explicitly look at OSNs but rather at online social support within forums for people with disabilities. Studies such as these have not involved the users; defined what constitutes disability or focused on cp without encompassing other disabilities, making it impossible to identify the requirements of OSN users with cp. Initially this PhD research explored the experiences and challenges faced when individuals with cp use OSNs. Fourteen interviews were carried out consisting of participants with variations of the disability. The study identified the reasons for OSN use and non-use and also discovered key themes together with challenges that affected their experiences. This work was followed by an in-context observational study that examined these individuals context of use. The study identified the OSNs and assistive technology used, tasks carried out and users feelings during interaction. As a result of these studies it was determined that changing OSNs prevented and or slowed down these users ability to communicate online. Previous work within human-computer interaction and other disciplines such as software engineering and management science, change is often discussed during software development and is restricted to identifying scenarios and tools that assist change management within information technology (Jarke and Kurkisuonio, 1998). Studies such as these have not considered change deployment or its affect on users, though within HCI such an understanding is limited. Other disciplines i.e. psychology and social sciences have looked at change deployment. Theorists such as Lewin (1952), Lippett (1958) and Griffith (2001) attempt to offer solutions. However no one theory or approach is widely accepted and contradictions, adaptations and exclusions are continually being made. Conversely Woodward and Hendry (2004) and By (2007) have attempted to contend with these difficulties specifically stress as a result of change, believing that if change agents are aware of what an affected individual is thinking during the on set of change it will help to minimise or prevent damage. Studies such as these have focused on software development or organisational change from the perspective of developers or employees, they have not considered OSNs or individuals with cp. To fill this gap a longitudinal OSN monitoring and analysis study was carried out. The study identified how OSN changes are introduced, their affect on users, and the factors that encourage change acceptance or non-acceptance. The study was divided into three studies: two studies investigating realworld examples of OSN change by observing the actions of change agents (Twitter.com and Facebook.com) and their users reactions to the change process. A third study that asked OSN users about their experiences of OSN change was also carried out. A by product of these studies was a unique way of displaying OSN change and user acceptance on a large scale using a infographic and an inductive category model that can be used to examine OSN change. The findings from the five studies were then distilled alongside identified change management approaches and theories to develop an five-stage process for OSN change for change agents to follow. The process defined the requirements for OSN change including the change agent responsibilities before, during and after the change.

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the literacy difficulties of fifteen children with cerebral palsy (CP). The children were an opportunistic sample from two schools, and were initially selected on the basis that they had typical abilities in other school subjects. A review of the literature pertaining to the development of literacy and related aspects of cognitive development in typically-developing children and children with CP informed the development of the research strategy. The children's literacy, their general non-verbal and communication abilities, as well as a set of cognitive abilities that could be related to literacy impairments, were assessed. The findings revealed that most, but not all, of the children with CP had literacy difficulties with low scores in reading and spelling, and all the children had problems with handwriting. Standardised assessments showed that while the children had good verbal abilities, they had very low scores on a non-verbal test. The children with the most severe literacy difficulties also had the most problems with phonological processing. Almost all of the children had difficulties with visual and spatial perception; however the better readers had typical results in an assessment of visual sequential memory. Tests of working memory (WM) revealed a clear division between typical levels of performance on verbal recall measures, and very poor performance on the visual components of working memory tests. There were mixed results for the assessment of the central executive, but generally those children who were the more able in literacy had higher scores. Correlations suggested that visual sequential memory; phonological segmentation; verbal recall; and aspects of the central executive of working memory were most closely associated with the children's literacy abilities. Thus, the findings indicate that children with CP ha,ve specific cognitive impairments, including a new suggestion that poor visual sequential memory abilities could delay the development of reading and spelling skills.

Abstract:
Self-concept is the perception that individuals have of themselves across different aspects of life such as academic performance or appearance. The Self-Concept Feedback Loop proposed for this research program conceptualised self-concept as developing through an interactive and iterative process involving social experiences and the cognitive processes of individuals. Through this process, individuals evaluate their behaviour or attributes against their internal standards. Subsequently, this evaluation influences their self-concept. In the general population, low self-concept has been linked to a range of negative outcomes, including poor academic achievement, and behaviour and mental health problems. However, research into the self-concept of children with cerebral palsy (CP) is rare. The motor and accompanying impairments associated with CP limit participation opportunities for children with CP, creating a unique social experience for these children that are likely to differ from typically developing (TD) children. Given this unique social experience, children with CP may perceive their self-concept differently from TD children as well as be at potential risk for low self-concept. The overall aim of this research program was to examine the self-concept of children with CP after identifying or developing a CP-specific self-concept instrument suitable for this purpose. In Study 1, a systematic review was undertaken to identify self-concept instruments suitable for children with CP. Five studies that measured the self-concept of preadolescent children with CP that had population-specific psychometric data were identified. Examination of the psychometric properties of the instruments utilised in those studies identified no CP-specific self-concept instruments, whilst existing instruments developed for TD children did not have strong psychometric support for their use with children with CP. In Study 2, a three-round Delphi consensus survey was conducted to identify self-concept domains relevant to children with CP. Three groups were recruited: professionals working with children with CP (n=21), caregivers of children with CP (n=18), and children with CP (n=12, 7 boys). Findings demonstrated that children with CP generally conceptualise self-concept using similar domains to TD children. However, several CP-specific domains were identified. Based on these findings, it was determined that the construction of a population-specific instrument which incorporates CP-specific domains was necessary in order to provide a comprehensive evaluation of self-concept for children with CP. The myTREEHOUSE Self-Concept Assessment (myTREEHOUSE) was developed using classical test theory based on the rational-empirical approach. Self-concept is measured by the child’s appraisal of their performance for 26 items across eight domains. The child’s appraisal is rated from three perspectives: Personal, Social, and Perceived. In addition, children also complete an Importance Rating. The discrepancy between the Importance Rating and the Personal Performance Perspective for each item is summed to achieve a Personal Concern Score which indicates the presence and severity of self-concept concerns. In Study 3, the validity and reliability of myTREEHOUSE was examined. Support for face and content validity was ascertained through semi-structured interviews with seven experts. myTREEHOUSE demonstrated strong internal consistency assessed with 50 children with CP (29 boys). Moderate test-retest reliability was demonstrated with a subset of 35 children (20 boys). Study 4 explored the profile of self-concept using myTREEHOUSE for 50 children with CP (29 boys) in relation to age, gender, and motor, communication, and cognitive function. Children with CP in this cohort reported high self-concept. Findings also demonstrated that self-concept was not associated with age, gender, motor function, or communication function. Cognitive function was found to be associated with the self-concept domains of Social Skills and Learning Skills. Study 5 investigated the relationship between self-concept and quality of life measured using two population-specific instruments; myTREEHOUSE for self-concept and CP QOL-Child for quality of life. Higher self-concept was associated with higher quality of life in this cohort of 25 children with CP (13 boys). The relationships between self-concept with child-reported quality of life were stronger than proxy-reported quality of life. Through this research program, it was ascertained that existing self-concept instruments are not suitable for children with CP, given their weak psychometric data and the absence of CP-specific domains. In response, the myTREEHOUSE Self-Concept Assessment was developed and preliminary validation undertaken. Findings from this research program present the first self-concept profile of children with CP and provide a deeper understanding about how these children perceive their self-concept and quality of life.

Abstract:
Objectives. Although the health benefits of physical activity are well described for the general population, less is known about the benefits and harms of physical activity in people dependent upon, partially dependent upon, or at risk for needing a wheelchair. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for physical activity in people with multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and spinal cord injury regardless of current use or nonuse of a wheelchair. Data sources. We searched MEDLINE®, CINAHL®, PsycINFO®, Cochrane CENTRAL, Embase®, and Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine Source from 2008 through November 2020, reference lists, and clinical trial registries. Review methods. Predefined criteria were used to select randomized controlled trials, quasiexperimental nonrandomized trials, and cohort studies that addressed the benefits and harms of observed physical activity (at least 10 sessions on 10 different days of movement using more energy than rest) in participants with multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and spinal cord injury. Individual study quality (risk of bias) and the strength of bodies of evidence for key outcomes were assessed using prespecified methods. Dual review procedures were used. Effects were analyzed by etiology of impairment and physical activity modality, such as treadmill, aquatic exercises, and yoga, using qualitative, and when appropriate, quantitative synthesis using random effects meta-analyses. Results. We included 146 randomized controlled trials, 15 quasiexperimental nonrandomized trials, and 7 cohort studies (168 studies in 197 publications). More studies enrolled participants with multiple sclerosis (44%) than other conditions, followed by cerebral palsy (38%) and spinal cord injury (18%). Most studies were rated fair quality (moderate risk of bias). The majority of the evidence was rated low strength. • In participants with multiple sclerosis, walking ability may be improved with treadmill training and multimodal exercise regimens that include strength training; function may be improved with treadmill training, balance exercises, and motion gaming; balance is likely improved with postural control exercises (which may also reduce risk of falls) and may be improved with aquatic exercises, robot-assisted gait training, treadmill training, motion gaming, and multimodal exercises; activities of daily living may be improved with aquatic therapy; sleep may be improved with aerobic exercises; aerobic fitness may be improved with multimodal exercises; and female sexual function may be improved with aquatic exercise. • In participants with cerebral palsy, balance may be improved with hippotherapy and motion gaming, and function may be improved with cycling, treadmill training, and hippotherapy. • In participants with spinal cord injury, evidence suggested that activities of daily living may be improved with robot-assisted gait training. • When randomized controlled trials were pooled across types of exercise, physical activity interventions were found to improve walking in multiple sclerosis and likely improve balance and depression in multiple sclerosis. Physical activity may improve function and aerobic fitness in people with cerebral palsy or spinal cord injury. When studies of populations with multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy were combined, evidence indicated dance may improve function. • Evidence on long-term health outcomes was not found for any analysis groups. For intermediate outcomes such as blood pressure, lipid profile, and blood glucose, there was insufficient evidence from which to draw conclusions. There was inadequate reporting of adverse events in many trials. Conclusions. Physical activity was associated with improvements in walking ability, general function, balance (including fall risk), depression, sleep, activities of daily living, female sexual function, and aerobic capacity, depending on population enrolled and type of exercise utilized. No studies reported long-term cardiovascular or metabolic disease health outcomes. Future trials could alter these findings; further research is needed to examine health outcomes, and to understand the magnitude and clinical importance of benefits seen in intermediate outcomes.
