[PMID: 38628701 PMCID: PMC11018907 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2024.1292587] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This bibliometric study explores cerebral palsy (CP) research from 2003 to 2022 to reveal the topic hotspots and collaborations. Methods We retrieved studies on CP from the Web of Science Core Collection from 2003 to 2022 and then used CiteSpace and Bibliometrix to perform a bibliometric analysis and attain knowledge mapping, including publication outputs, funding, journals, authors, institutions, countries/territories, keywords, collaborative relationships, and topic hotspots. Results In total, 8,223 articles were published from 2003 to 2022. During this period, the number of publications increased continuously. Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology was the most productive and frequently co-cited journal. Boyd was the most productive and influential author, with 143 publications and 4,011 citations. The United States and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam were the most productive countries and institutions, respectively. Researchers and institutions from the USA, Australia, and Canada constituted the core research forces, with extensive collaborations worldwide. The most common keywords were gait (553), rehabilitation (440), spasticity (325), botulinum toxin (174), therapy (148), upper extremity (141), quality of life (140), disability (115), pain (98), electromyography (97), kinematics (90), balance (88), participation (85), and walking (79). Conclusion This study provides a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the CP-related literature. It reveals that Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology is the most active journal in this field. The USA, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and Boyd are the top countries, institutions, and authors, respectively. Emerging treatment methods, complication management, and functional recovery comprise the future research directions and potential topic hotspots for CP.

Abstract
Cerebral palsy is a clinical descriptor covering a diverse group of permanent, non-degenerative disorders of motor function. Around one-third of cases have now been shown to have an underlying genetic aetiology, with the genetic landscape overlapping with those of neurodevelopmental disorders including intellectual disability, epilepsy, speech and language disorders and autism. Here we review the current state of genomic testing in cerebral palsy, highlighting the benefits for personalized medicine and the imperative to consider aetiology during clinical diagnosis. With earlier clinical diagnosis now possible, we emphasize the opportunity for comprehensive and early genomic testing as a crucial component of the routine diagnostic work-up in people with cerebral palsy.

Mol Genet Metab 2022; 137:420-427. [PMID: 34364746 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymgme.2021.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Revised: 07/17/2021] [Accepted: 07/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The presentation and underlying etiology of Cerebral Palsy (CP) in general are heterogenous. Clinical features present differently in pediatric versus adult patient populations. Many metabolic and genetic conditions present with clinical symptoms suggestive of CP. Precision medicine practices are currently a standard of care, and Next-Generation-Sequencing (NGS) tools are used for the purpose of diagnosis and management. We describe the diagnostic yield and impact on management of NGS comparing a cohort of 102 children and 37 adults with CP, referred to two tertiary care centres between 2015 and 2020 (adult cohort) and 2017-2020 (pediatric cohort) respectively. PRINCIPAL RESULTS In the adult cohort, 28 patients had a positive genetic diagnosis, giving a yield of 75.6%. Their age varied between 18 and 59 years, with a median of 28 years. Out of the positive diagnoses, 12 were consistent with an inborn error of metabolism and in 9 patients (32.1%) some form of treatment or management guideline was recommended. In the pediatric cohort 21 patients had a positive genetic diagnosis and 22 results are still pending, giving a yield of 32.8%. Age at diagnosis ranged between 18 months and 12 years. In 15 patients (71.4%) there was some form of management recommendation. All families benefited from genetic counseling. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Given the combined high yield of positive genetic diagnosis in pediatric and adult cases presenting with symptoms of Cerebral Palsy, and the more readily available Next Generation Sequencing testing in major academic centres, we recommend that either a referral to a pediatric or adult neurometabolic centre to be made, or genetic testing to be initiated where this is available.

Dev Med Child Neurol 2022; 64:1470-1476. [PMID: 35441707 PMCID: PMC9790418 DOI: 10.1111/dmcn.15245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Revised: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
AIM To define clinical common data elements (CDEs) and a mandatory minimum data set (MDS) for genomic studies of cerebral palsy (CP). METHOD Candidate data elements were collated following a review of the literature and existing CDEs. An online, three-round Delphi survey was used to rate each data element as either 'core', 'recommended', 'exploratory', or 'not required'. Members of the International Cerebral Palsy Genomics Consortium (ICPGC) rated the core CDEs as either mandatory or not, to form the MDS. For both the CDEs and the MDS, a data element was considered to have reached consensus if more than 75% of respondents agreed. RESULTS Forty-six individuals from around the world formed the Delphi panel: consumers (n=2), scientists/researchers (n=17), medical (n=19), and allied health professionals (n=8). The CDEs include 107 data elements across six categories: demographics, diagnostics, family history, antenatal and neonatal details, clinical traits, and CP-specific assessments. Of these, 10 are mandatory, 42 core, 41 recommended, and 14 are exploratory. INTERPRETATION The ICPGC CDEs provide a foundation for the standardization of phenotype data captured in CP genomic studies and will benefit international collaborations and pooling of data, particularly in rare conditions. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS A set of 107 common data elements (CDEs) for genomics studies in cerebral palsy is provided. The CDEs include standard definitions and data values domains. The CDEs will facilitate international data sharing, collaboration, and improved clinical interpretation of findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE Germline loss-of-function variants in CTNNB1 cause neurodevelopmental disorder with spastic diplegia and visual defects (NEDSDV; OMIM 615075) and are the most frequent, recurrent monogenic cause of cerebral palsy (CP). We investigated the range of clinical phenotypes owing to disruptions of CTNNB1 to determine the association between NEDSDV and CP. METHODS Genetic information from 404 individuals with collectively 392 pathogenic CTNNB1 variants were ascertained for the study. From these, detailed phenotypes for 52 previously unpublished individuals were collected and combined with 68 previously published individuals with comparable clinical information. The functional effects of selected CTNNB1 missense variants were assessed using TOPFlash assay. RESULTS The phenotypes associated with pathogenic CTNNB1 variants were similar. A diagnosis of CP was not significantly associated with any set of traits that defined a specific phenotypic subgroup, indicating that CP is not additional to NEDSDV. Two CTNNB1 missense variants were dominant negative regulators of WNT signaling, highlighting the utility of the TOPFlash assay to functionally assess variants. CONCLUSION NEDSDV is a clinically homogeneous disorder irrespective of initial clinical diagnoses, including CP, or entry points for genetic testing.

Abstract
AIM To determine which patients with cerebral palsy (CP) should undergo genetic testing, we compared the rate of likely causative genetic variants from whole-exome sequencing in individuals with and without environmental risk factors. METHOD Patients were part of a convenience and physician-referred cohort recruited from a single medical center, and research whole-exome sequencing was completed. Participants were evaluated for the following risk factors: extreme preterm birth, brain bleed or stroke, birth asphyxia, brain malformations, and intrauterine infection. RESULTS A total of 151 unrelated individuals with CP (81 females, 70 males; mean age 25y 7mo [SD 17y 5mo], range 3wks-72y) participated. Causative genetic variants were identified in 14 participants (9.3%). There was no significant difference in diagnostic rate between individuals with risk factors (10 out of 123; 8.1%) and those without (4 out of 28; 14.3%) (Fisher's exact p=0.3). INTERPRETATION While the rate of genetic diagnoses among individuals without risk factors was higher than those with risk factors, the difference was not statistically significant at this sample size. The identification of genetic diagnoses in over 8% of cases with risk factors suggests that these might confer susceptibility to environmental factors, and that further research should include individuals with risk factors. What this paper adds There is no significant difference in diagnostic rate between individuals with and without risk factors. Genetic variants may confer susceptibility to environmental risk factors. Six causative variants were identified in genes not previously associated with cerebral palsy. Global developmental delay/intellectual disability is positively associated with a genetic etiology. Extreme preterm birth, stroke/brain hemorrhage, and older age are negatively associated with a genetic etiology.

An Emerging Role for Epigenetics in Cerebral Palsy. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11111187. [PMID: 34834539 PMCID: PMC8625874 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11111187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Revised: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Cerebral palsy is a set of common, severe, motor disabilities categorized by a static, nondegenerative encephalopathy arising in the developing brain and associated with deficits in movement, posture, and activity. Spastic CP, which is the most common type, involves high muscle tone and is associated with altered muscle function including poor muscle growth and contracture, increased extracellular matrix deposition, microanatomic disruption, musculoskeletal deformities, weakness, and difficult movement control. These muscle-related manifestations of CP are major causes of progressive debilitation and frequently require intensive surgical and therapeutic intervention to control. Current clinical approaches involve sophisticated consideration of biomechanics, radiologic assessments, and movement analyses, but outcomes remain difficult to predict. There is a need for more precise and personalized approaches involving omics technologies, data science, and advanced analytics. An improved understanding of muscle involvement in spastic CP is needed. Unfortunately, the fundamental mechanisms and molecular pathways contributing to altered muscle function in spastic CP are only partially understood. In this review, we outline evidence supporting the emerging hypothesis that epigenetic phenomena play significant roles in musculoskeletal manifestations of CP.

Public Health Genomics 2021; 25:1-10. [PMID: 34537775 DOI: 10.1159/000518942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2020] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The goal of this study was to understand individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) and their family's attitudes and preferences to genomic research, including international data sharing and biobanking. METHODS Individuals with CP and their family members were invited to participate in the web-based survey via email (NSW/ACT CP Register) or via posts on social media by Cerebral Palsy Alliance, CP Research Network, and CP Now. Survey responses included yes/no/unsure, multiple choices, and Likert scales. Fisher's exact and χ2 tests were used to assess if there were significant differences between subgroups. RESULTS Individuals with CP and their families (n = 145) were willing to participate in genomics research (68%), data sharing (82%), and biobanking efforts (75%). This willingness to participate was associated with completion of tertiary education, previous genetic testing experience, overall higher genomic awareness, and trust in international researchers. The survey respondents also expressed ongoing communication and diverse information needs regarding the use of their samples and data. Major concerns were associated with privacy and data security. DISCUSSION The success of genomic research and international data sharing efforts in CP are contingent upon broad support and recruitment. Ongoing consultation and engagement of individuals with CP and their families will facilitate trust and promote increased awareness of genomics in CP that may in turn maximize participant uptake and recruitment.

[PMID: 34442409 PMCID: PMC8400439 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11080765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Individuals with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) often exhibit altered sensitivities to neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) used for surgical intubation. We assessed usage of the NMBA rocuronium in patients with spastic CP and evaluated potential modifiers of dosing including gross motor function classification system (GMFCS) level, birthweight, gestational age, and the use of anticonvulsant therapy. In a case-control study, surgical patients with spastic CP (n = 64) or with idiopathic or non-neuromuscular conditions (n = 73) were enrolled after informed consent/assent. Patient data, GMFCS level, anticonvulsant use, and rocuronium dosing for intubation and post-intubation neuromuscular blockade were obtained from medical records. Findings reveal participants with CP required more rocuronium per body weight for intubation than controls (1.00 ± 0.08 versus 0.64 ± 0.03 mg/kg; p < 0.0001). Dosing increased with GMFCS level (Spearman's rho = 0.323; p = 0.005), and participants with moderate to severe disability (GMFCS III-V) had elevated rocuronium with (1.21 ± 0.13 mg/kg) or without (0.86 ± 0.09 mg/kg) concurrent anticonvulsant therapy. Children born full-term or with birthweight >2.5 kg in the CP cohort required more rocuronium than preterm and low birthweight counterparts. Individuals with CP exhibited highly varied and significant resistance to neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium that was related to GMFCS and gestational age and weight at birth.

Abstract
In addition to commonly associated environmental factors, genomic factors may cause cerebral palsy. We performed whole-exome sequencing of 250 parent-offspring trios, and observed enrichment of damaging de novo mutations in cerebral palsy cases. Eight genes had multiple damaging de novo mutations; of these, two (TUBA1A and CTNNB1) met genome-wide significance. We identified two novel monogenic etiologies, FBXO31 and RHOB, and showed that the RHOB mutation enhances active-state Rho effector binding while the FBXO31 mutation diminishes cyclin D levels. Candidate cerebral palsy risk genes overlapped with neurodevelopmental disorder genes. Network analyses identified enrichment of Rho GTPase, extracellular matrix, focal adhesion and cytoskeleton pathways. Cerebral palsy risk genes in enriched pathways were shown to regulate neuromotor function in a Drosophila reverse genetics screen. We estimate that 14% of cases could be attributed to an excess of damaging de novo or recessive variants. These findings provide evidence for genetically mediated dysregulation of early neuronal connectivity in cerebral palsy.

Abstract
The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO)—a standardized vocabulary of phenotypic abnormalities associated with 7000+ diseases—is used by thousands of researchers, clinicians, informaticians and electronic health record systems around the world. Its detailed descriptions of clinical abnormalities and computable disease definitions have made HPO the de facto standard for deep phenotyping in the field of rare disease. The HPO’s interoperability with other ontologies has enabled it to be used to improve diagnostic accuracy by incorporating model organism data. It also plays a key role in the popular Exomiser tool, which identifies potential disease-causing variants from whole-exome or whole-genome sequencing data. Since the HPO was first introduced in 2008, its users have become both more numerous and more diverse. To meet these emerging needs, the project has added new content, language translations, mappings and computational tooling, as well as integrations with external community data. The HPO continues to collaborate with clinical adopters to improve specific areas of the ontology and extend standardized disease descriptions. The newly redesigned HPO website (www.human-phenotype-ontology.org) simplifies browsing terms and exploring clinical features, diseases, and human genes.

Front Cell Neurosci 2019; 13:494. [PMID: 31749688 PMCID: PMC6848160 DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2019.00494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of non-progressive motor impairment syndromes that are secondary to brain injury in the early stages of brain development. Numerous etiologies and risk factors of CP have been reported, and genetic contributions have recently been identified. Autophagy has an important role in brain development and pathological process, and autophagy-related gene 7 (ATG7) is essential for autophagosome biogenesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the genetic association between ATG7 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and CP in Han Chinese children. Six SNPs (rs346078, rs1470612, rs11706903, rs2606750, rs2594972, and rs4684787) were genotyped in 715 CP patients and 658 healthy controls using the MassArray platform. Plasma ATG7 protein was determined in 73 CP patients and 79 healthy controls. The differences in the allele and genotype frequencies of the rs1470612 and rs2594972 SNPs were determined between the CP patients and controls (p allele = 0.02 and 0.0004, p genotype = 0.044 and 0.0012, respectively). Subgroup analysis revealed a more significant association of rs1470612 (p allele = 0.004, p genotype = 0.0036) and rs2594972 (p allele = 0.0004, p genotype < 0.0001) with male CP, and more significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies were also noticed between CP patients with spastic diplegia and controls for rs1470612 (p allele = 0.0024, p genotype = 0.008) and rs2594972 (p allele < 0.0001, p genotype = 0.006). The plasma ATG7 level was higher in CP patients compared to the controls (10.58 ± 0.85 vs. 8.18 ± 0.64 pg/mL, p = 0.024). The luciferase reporter gene assay showed that the T allele of rs2594972 SNP could significantly increase transcriptional activity of the ATG7 promoter compared to the C allele (p = 0.009). These findings suggest that an association exists between genetic variants of ATG7 and susceptibility to CP, which provides novel evidence for the role of ATG7 in CP and contributes to our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of this neurodevelopmental disorder.

Abstract
High throughput sequencing is discovering many likely causative genetic variants in individuals with cerebral palsy. Some investigators have suggested that this changes the clinical diagnosis of cerebral palsy and that these individuals should be removed from this diagnostic category. Cerebral palsy is a neurodevelopmental disorder diagnosed on clinical signs, not etiology. All nonprogressive permanent disorders of movement and posture attributed to disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal and infant brain can be described as "cerebral palsy." This definition of cerebral palsy should not be changed, whatever the cause. Reasons include stability, utility and accuracy of cerebral palsy registers, direct access to services, financial and social support specifically offered to families with cerebral palsy, and community understanding of the clinical diagnosis. Other neurodevelopmental disorders, for example, epilepsy, have not changed the diagnosis when genomic causes are found. The clinical diagnosis of cerebral palsy should remain, should prompt appropriate genetic studies and can subsequently be subclassified by etiology.

Pathogenic copy number variants that affect gene expression contribute to genomic burden in cerebral palsy. NPJ Genom Med 2018; 3:33. [PMID: 30564460 PMCID: PMC6294788 DOI: 10.1038/s41525-018-0073-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2018] [Accepted: 11/26/2018] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most frequent movement disorder of childhood affecting 1 in 500 live births in developed countries. We previously identified likely pathogenic de novo or inherited single nucleotide variants (SNV) in 14% (14/98) of trios by exome sequencing and a further 5% (9/182) from evidence of outlier gene expression using RNA sequencing. Here, we detected copy number variants (CNV) from exomes of 186 unrelated individuals with CP (including our original 98 trios) using the CoNIFER algorithm. CNV were validated with Illumina 850 K SNP arrays and compared with RNA-Seq outlier gene expression analysis from lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL). Gene expression was highly correlated with gene dosage effect. We resolved an additional 3.7% (7/186) of this cohort with pathogenic or likely pathogenic CNV while a further 7.7% (14/186) had CNV of uncertain significance. We identified recurrent genomic rearrangements previously associated with CP due to 2p25.3 deletion, 22q11.2 deletions and duplications and Xp monosomy. We also discovered a deletion of a single gene, PDCD6IP, and performed additional zebrafish model studies to support its single allele loss in CP aetiology. Combined SNV and CNV analysis revealed pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in 22.7% of unselected individuals with CP. At least 23% of cerebral palsy has a genetic basis, due to either point mutations or large chromosomal abnormalities. Using sequence data from 186 unrelated patients, a team led by Mark Corbett from the University of Adelaide, Australia, searched the protein-coding portion of the genome for disease-causing duplications or deletions, types of mutations collectively known as copy number variants, or CNVs. The researchers singled out 7 pathogenic CNVs that they corroborated through microarray profiling and gene expression analyses. Using a zebrafish model, the researchers identified a new gene “PDCD6IP” associated with cerebral palsy and epilepsy. They also flagged another 14 CNVs that were likely pathogenic but could not be confirmed. The work highlights the need for comprehensive genetic testing to be considered early in the diagnosis of cerebral palsy.
