Disease relevance of Disabled Children

• Vomiting, hematemesis, and esophagitis resulting from gastroesophageal reflux or hiatal hernia are frequently observed in severely handicapped children [1].
• OBJECTIVE: To determine the safety and efficacy of glycopyrrolate in the treatment of developmentally disabled children with sialorrhea [2].
• Effect of a new H2-blocker, famotidine, in reflux esophagitis among severely handicapped children [1].
• Evaluation of stannous fluoride and chlorhexidine sprays on plaque and gingivitis in handicapped children [3].
• The application to orthotics was limited to Hip-Knee-Ankle-Orthoses (HKAO) as worn by severely handicapped children with spina bifida and led to the development of a shapable CFRP/aluminium alloy hybrid composite bar [4].

Psychiatry related information on Disabled Children

• Children with behavioral subtypes of ADHD do not exhibit the specific skill deficits on neuropsychological tests that are characteristic of reading disabled children [5].
• Early literature has suggested that children with disabilities, especially chronic medical or biological disabilities, typified by epilepsy and diabetes, are more susceptible to the development of psychopathology and negative self-concepts [6].
• To determine optimal and least effective response modes of learning disabled children, the procedure described by Owen, Braggio, and Ellen (1976) and the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities were used [7].
• Melatonin may help disabled children suffering from sleep disorders [8].
• Memory in learning disabled children: digit span and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test [9].

High impact information on Disabled Children

• Oral melatonin in neurologically disabled children [10].
• The influence of attention on the dichotic REA with normal and learning disabled children [11].
• It covers the eugenic sterilization programme, the killing of handicapped children, the so called Action T4 (the killing of adult psychiatric patients) and the second phase of Action T4 after its official termination, i.e. between 1941 and 1945 [12].
• Phenobarbital in neurologically handicapped children [13].
• The study investigated the effectiveness of large amounts of ascorbic acid, niacinamide, calcium pantothenate, and pyridoxine when added to a low carbohydrate-high protein diet with 20 learning disabled children [14].

Chemical compound and disease context of Disabled Children

• Fanconi syndrome caused by sodium valproate: report of three severely disabled children [15].
• Because histamine2-receptor antagonists such as ranitidine have not been uniformly effective, we treated disabled children with esophagitis with greater than usual doses [16].

Biological context of Disabled Children

• From their event related potentials (ERPs) to tones of four intensity levels, a sample of attention disordered and/or reading disabled children, recommended for a trial on methylphenidate, were classified as auditory augmenters or reducers [17].

Associations of Disabled Children with chemical compounds

• Omeprazole: therapy of choice in intellectually disabled children [18].
• DESIGN: We studied the effect of omeprazole sodium on healing and symptom relief in 52 institutionalized intellectually disabled children (male-female, 21:31; mean age, 15.4 years; range, 4-19 years) [18].
• However, it was uncertain what factor of bedridden state influences the uric acid level in severely disabled children [19].
• A comparison of three delivery methods of chlorhexidine in handicapped children. II. Parent and house-parent preferences [20].
• Hypouricemia in severely disabled children: influence of valproic acid and bed-ridden state [21].

Gene context of Disabled Children

• Compared an estimated Psycholinguistic Quotient, based on Cronkhite and Penner's (1975) revised scoring procedure for the ITPA Psycholinguistic Age, to the WISC-R Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs of developmentally disabled children [22].
• Data on the incomes of families with a severely disabled child were obtained by replicating the Family Expenditure Survey. These data were compared with income data from a control group of families with children, drawn from the FES for the same period [23].
• The learning disabled children with epilepsy tended to perform better on tests of verbal intelligence, certain achievement-related abilities and were better in one area of academic achievement, i.e. spelling [24].
• The percentage of handicapped children is 19% in the SGA group and 9% in the AGA group [25].
• Reading disabled children performed significantly worse than normal children on the Temporal Dot Task, but were only mildly impaired on the Spatial Dot Task, Backward readers were not significantly better than the reading disabled group on either task, suggesting that poor poor visual temporal processing is not specific to dyslexia [26].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Disabled Children

• Using the reproductive lifeline and semi-structured interviews, information was gathered on both partners' periods of exposure to Agent Orange, pregnancy outcomes, perceived health problems of children and experiences of living with handicapped children [27].
• METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 273 families with children with disabilities using ambulatory services at an academic children's hospital in Germany. We measured family burden using a translated version of the Impact on Family Scale (FABEL) [28].
• For domains other than Self care, alternative assessment strategies may be necessary to improve assigning ICF codes to children with disabilities [29].
• METHODS: Eighteen neurologically handicapped children, followed in the Tube Feeding Clinic at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin who were intolerant of gastrostomy feedings [30].
