what does ASD involve?
rare de novo mutations and polygenetic risk
for ASD what early disruptions are there?
neuronal migration, synaptogensis and cortical layering during early brain development
what motor devlopemental impact have on ASD?
delays in gross and fine motor milestones, atypical motor planning and coordination, motor signs may precede social-communication symtoms
how does CP result from?
disruptions in brain devleopment during the second or third trimester, periventricular leukomalacia or cortical malformations
what is the motor development impact of CP?
non progressive motor impairment due to early brain injury, affects muscle tone, posture and voluntary movement, mild clumsiness to severe spasticity and immobility
what is Down syndrome caused by?
trisomy of chromosome 21
what is the embryological relevance of down sydrome?
impacts neurogenesis, synaptic developement, and cerebellar growth
what is the motor development impact of down syndrome?
delayed motor milestones, hypotonia and ligamentous laxity, requires early intervention and pt
what is the genetic influence of spina bifida?
genetic susceptibility and enviroronmental factors
what is the embruological relevance of spina bifida?
failure of neural tube closure during weeks 3-4 of gestation
what is the motor development impact of spina bifida?
lower limb weakness or paralysis, orphopedic compleications, may require mobility aids, surgical repair, and lifelong therapy
