TL;DR: The changes in the epidemiology of this disease, the underlying prenatal mechanisms, and possible treatments that may reduce the prevalence of CP and alter the course of the disease are described.

TL;DR: Bed-side somnography technology revealed that in an unselected sample of patients with acute ischemic stroke, almost 90% had sleep-disordered breathing with third having severe form of the disorder, providing possible pathophysiological explanation of OSA-associated stroke risk.

TL;DR: Among women with preeclampsia, the presence of neonatal infectious morbidity, birth asphyxia, and complications of prematurity are independent risk factors for the development of cerebral palsy, which further supports the role of a multi-hit model in the pathogenesis of this syndrome.

TL;DR: The authors observed higher birth prevalence of conotruncal heart defects compared with the birth prevalence reported worldwide, specifically among the Bedouins, a population characterised with high consanguinity rate.

TL;DR: In this paper, the association between preeclampsia and cerebral palsy was determined and risk factors for the development of these patients were determined by using generalized estimating equation multiple logistic regression models.
