Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize research findings on the determinants of Quality of Life (QoL) in children with cerebral palsy based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). METHODS The protocol of the review was registered in the International Prospective Register of The Systematic Reviews PROSPERO (CRD42021261966). A PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE complete, and CINAHL Plus search was conducted between January 2020 and October 2021 to identify studies that examined determinants of QoL. Inclusion criteria for the studies were children between the ages of birth and 20 years with cerebral palsy. The data extraction and quality evaluation of studies were carried out independently by two reviewers. RESULTS A total of 664 studies were identified in the search, of which 23 studies were included in the review. The majority of the studies were conducted in high-income countries. According to the ICF, 48% of the studies examined body function determinants, 52% examined activities determinants, and 26% examined environmental determinants. In contrast, 13% of the studies examined determinants related to participation and 13% examined determinants related to personal factors. CONCLUSIONS Based on our findings, most of the determinants identified in the literature are related sequentially to functional activities, body functions and structures, and environmental factors. Researchers should focus on assessing the determinants of QoL related to participation and personal characteristics for children with cerebral palsy in order to improve their QoL.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18094661. [PMID: 33925690 PMCID: PMC8125433 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18094661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Pain and abnormal somatosensory processing are important associated conditions in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP). Perceived social support is highly relevant for pain perception and coping. Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of social support on pain sensitivity in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy and healthy peers. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Pressure pain thresholds were assessed in 42 children and adolescents with CP and 190 healthy peers during three different conditions: alone, with their mother and with a stranger. Results: Children with CP reported lower pain sensitivity when they were with their mother than being alone or with a stranger, whereas healthy peers did not experience different pain sensitivity related to the social condition. Sex or clinical characteristics did not affect the relationship between pain perception and social support. Conclusion: The present study shows how children with CP are highly affected by social and contextual influences for regulating pain sensitivity. Solicitous parental support may enhance pain perception in children with CP. Further research on the topic is warranted in order to attain well-founded conclusions for clinical practice.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the diagnostic performance of anthropometric indicators to identify undernutrition in children with cerebral palsy (CP). METHOD The present study was a monocentric retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data among children and adolescents with CP participating in a rehabilitation program. Undernutrition was defined as a z-score for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) determined body fat percentage less or equal to -2.0. The cut-off values for body mass index (BMI) of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the cut-off values for BMI and height for age of the Robert Koch Institut (RKI) were evaluated. RESULTS In total, 329 children with CP (181 males, 148 females, Gross Motor Function Classification System levels I-V) were eligible for analysis. The mean age was 12 years 4 months (SD 2y 9mo). The BMI cut-off values showed the following sensitivities and specificities: WHO, sensitivity of 0.474 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.244-0.711), specificity of 0.897 (95% CI: 0.857-0.928); CDC, sensitivity of 0.632 (95% CI: 0.384-0.837), specificity of 0.819 (95% CI: 0.772-0.861); RKI, sensitivity of 0.789 (95% CI: 0.544-0.939), specificity of 0.732 (95% CI: 0.679-0.781); and for height for age, sensitivity of 0.263 (95% CI: 0.091-0.512), specificity of 0.668 (95% CI: 0.612-0.720). INTERPRETATION BMI had a high specificity but very low sensitivity in identifying undernutrition in children with CP. Z-scores for height for age had even lower specificity and sensitivity and seemed not to be appropriate for predicting undernutrition in children with CP. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS Body mass index (BMI) z-scores had a high specificity but very low sensitivity in identifying undernutrition in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Height z-scores were not appropriate for predicting undernutrition in children with CP. Undernutrition assessed by BMI was overestimated in children with CP versus when assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).

Abstract
AIM The primary aim of this review is to evaluate the evidence for pain prevalence in children and young adults with cerebral palsy. Secondary aims are to identify pain characteristics and types of pain measurement used in this population. METHOD Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL Plus, and PubMed were searched in October 2016 and updated in November 2017. Two authors independently screened studies according to Preferred Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Pain outcomes were categorized within a biopsychosocial pain framework, with pain prevalence extracted for all recall periods and measurement types. RESULTS One hundred and six publications from 57 studies met inclusion criteria. Pain prevalence varied widely from 14 per cent to 76 per cent and was higher in females, older age groups, and those classified within Gross Motor Function Classification System level V. Pain was most frequent in the lower limbs, back, and abdomen and associated with reduced quality of life or health status. The influence of pain on psychological functioning, interference, and participation was inconclusive. INTERPRETATION Variation exists in reported pain prevalence because of sampling bias, inconsistent measurement, varying recall periods, and use of different participant age ranges. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS Pain prevalence varies from 14 per cent to 76 per cent in children and young adults with cerebral palsy. Pain is more prevalent in females, older age groups, and children in Gross Motor Function Classification System level V.

Abstract
AIM To examine the risk, burden, and management of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) among people with cerebral palsy (CP). METHOD Databases (Ovid MEDLINE, Embase Ovid, CINAHL Plus) were systematically searched up to August 2017. Data on the prevalence of risk factors for, and the burden and management of, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancers, and respiratory diseases were extracted. RESULTS Thirty-six studies that examined the prevalence of risk factors among people with CP were identified. There was inconsistent evidence that people with CP had higher prevalence of metabolic risk factors such as hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, and obesity, but strong evidence that they participated in low levels of physical activity, compared with people without CP. Seven studies reported on the burden of NCDs. Adults with CP had a higher risk of NCDs, including stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and other heart conditions, and death due to NCDs, including cancers, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, stroke, and ischaemic heart disease, compared with the general population. Only one study reported on the management of NCD, specifically the uptake of breast cancer screening among females. INTERPRETATION The burden of NCDs is higher among adults with CP compared with the general population. Further research is required to determine the prevalence of metabolic risk factors and management of NCDs among people with CP. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS Adults with cerebral palsy (CP) have an increased risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and increased risk of death because of NCDs. Evidence is inconsistent about the elevated prevalence of metabolic risk factors for NCDs. Evidence is consistent that people with CP participate in reduced physical activity. Only one study reported on management of NCD among people with CP. Available evidence suggests people with CP are less likely to receive preventive medicine.

Abstract
AIM To systematically review literature on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children and adolescents (≤18yo) with cerebral palsy (CP) from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to identify trends in HRQoL and areas for future research. METHOD We systematically reviewed six key bibliographic databases and two reviewers independently screened results. Peer-reviewed original articles examining HRQoL of children from LMICs were eligible. RESULTS A total of 22 524 papers were identified, of which 16, from eight LMICs, were included. Four measures of HRQoL were used; Child Health Questionnaire Parent Form 50 (n=5); Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 and 4.0 (n=4); CP Quality of Life Questionnaire for Children (n=4); Lifestyle Assessment Questionnaire CP (n=3). Children with CP from LMICs (n=1579; 2-18y) had significantly poorer HRQoL on all instrument dimensions when compared to age-matched controls (p<0.003) and on all except two dimensions when compared to peers in high-income countries (p<0.001). Physical well-being dimensions of HRQoL were poorest overall and associated with impaired motor function. INTERPRETATION Research to improve HRQoL in LMICs is required and should address all aspects of HRQoL. Future research is recommended to incorporate multi-respondent assessment, utilize both general and CP-specific measures of HRQoL, and delineate adolescents as a unique cohort. What this paper adds Children with cerebral palsy from low- and middle-income countries are at high risk of poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Physical well-being was poorest dimension of HRQoL and associated with impaired motor function.
