Abstract:
AbstractFunctional circuits of the human brain emerge and change dramatically over the second half of gestation. It is possible that variation in neural functional system connectivity in utero predicts individual differences in infant behavioral development, but this possibility has yet to be examined. The current study examines the association between fetal sensorimotor brain system functional connectivity and infant postnatal motor ability. Resting-state functional connectivity data was obtained in 96 healthy human fetuses during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Infant motor ability was measured 7 months after birth using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development. Increased connectivity between the emerging motor network and regions of the prefrontal cortex, temporal lobes, posterior cingulate, and supplementary motor regions was observed in infants that showed more mature motor functions. In addition, females demonstrated stronger fetal-brain to infant-behavior associations. These observations extend prior longitudinal research back into prenatal brain development and raise exciting new ideas about the advent of risk and the ontogeny of early sex differences.

Abstract:
Objective: Many researchers and health care providers have noticed male vulnerability in infant health, mother–infant interactions, and some infant cognitive development, especially among very low birth weight (VLBW) preterm infants. However, factors beyond gender that could explain these observed differences have not been clear. The purpose of this article is to review the literature on the subject and to introduce a conceptual framework relating these factors. Discussion: According to gender-difference theories, prenatal exposure to high levels of testosterone may influence infant health and mother–infant interactions by negatively affecting infant cognitive/motor/language development. We constructed a conceptual framework based on the associations among biological (perinatal testosterone), stress-related (perinatal and maternal cortisol), and developmental (infant cognitive/motor/language skills) factors. If research establishes these biological, environmental, and developmental associations in mother–VLBW preterm pairs, the results will highlight the importance of addressing gender differences in nursing research and encourage the development of nursing interventions designed to reduce stress among mothers of VLBW preterm infants, particularly male infants. Conclusion: From a psychobiosocial perspective, combining biophysiological factors such as perinatal testosterone and cortisol with socioenvironmental factors such as the quality of mother–infant interactions and infant temperament may provide a broader view of gender differences in infant health and development.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To compare the motor development of infants from three population samples (Brazil, Canada and Greece), to investigate differences in the percentile curves of motor development in these samples, and to investigate the prevalence of motor delays in Brazilian children. METHODS: Observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study with 795 Brazilian infants from zero to 18 months of age, assessed by the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) at day care centers, nurseries, basic health units and at home. The Brazilian infants' motor scores were compared to the results of two population samples from Greece (424 infants) and Canada (2,400 infants). Descriptive statistics was used, with one-sample t-test and binomial tests, being significant p≤0.05. RESULTS: 65.4% of Brazilian children showed typical motor development, although with lower mean scores. In the beginning of the second year of life, the differences in the motor development among Brazilian, Canadian and Greek infants were milder; at 15 months of age, the motor development became similar in the three groups. A non-linear motor development trend was observed. CONCLUSIONS: The lowest motor percentiles of the Brazilian sample emphasized the need for national norms in order to correctly categorize the infant motor development. The different ways of motor development may be a consequence of cultural differences in infant care.

Abstract:
This longitudinal study investigated monthly motor development and physical activity (PA) of infants with and without Down syndrome. Gross and fine motor skills (Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III) and PA (accelerometer) were assessed in 35 infants at eight time points during infancy. A multivariate mixed model identified time points when motor scores diverged between the groups. In infants with Down syndrome, bivariate correlations between monthly PA and motor changes were calculated, and multivariate analysis of variance probed the influence of early PA on motor-skill timing. Results indicate that differences in gross and fine motor skills first emerge at 2 and 4 months, respectively. In infants with Down syndrome, gross motor and PA changes between 4 and 6 months were positively correlated. Infants more active than the mean at 2 or 3 months achieved several prone and sitting skills earlier. These results highlight the adaptability of early infancy and the importance of early intervention.

Abstract:
Background: Motor dysfunction has been reported as one of the first signs of atypical development in infants at high familial risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (HR infants). However, studies have shown inconsistent results regarding the nature of motor dysfunction and whether it can be predictive of later ASD diagnosis. This is likely because current standardized motor assessments may not identify subtle and specific motor impairments that precede clinically observable motor dysfunction. Quantitative measures of motor development may address these limitations by providing objective evaluation of subtle motor differences in infancy. Methods: We used Opal wearable sensors to longitudinally evaluate full day motor activity in HR infants, and develop a measure of motion complexity. We focus on complexity of motion because optimal motion complexity is crucial to normal motor development and less complex behaviors might represent repetitive motor behaviors, a core diagnostic symptom of ASD. As proof of concept, the relationship of the motion complexity measure to developmental outcomes was examined in a small set of HR infants. Results: HR infants with a later diagnosis of ASD show lower motion complexity compared to those that do not. There is a stronger correlation between motion complexity and ASD outcome compared to outcomes of cognitive ability and adaptive skills. Conclusions: Objective measures of motor development are needed to identify characteristics of atypical infant motor function that are sensitive and specific markers of later ASD risk. Motion complexity could be used to track early infant motor development and to discriminate HR infants that go on to develop ASD.

Abstract:
A longitudinal study of cognitive and motor development among infants born to adolescent mothers was conducted with 58 adolescent mothers and a control group of 59 adult mothers. The experimental and control groups were matched on race (white/black), parity, prenatal care, and SES. Data were obtained on antepartum, delivery, and postpartum performance of the mothers, along with data on infant status within each maternal group. Additionally, infants from each maternal group were followed longitudinally over the first year of life. Measures of infant mental and motor development test performance on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development were obtained at six and 12 months of age. The HOME Inventory was also used to obtain ratings of the infant home environment at six and 12 months of age. No differences were observed in the incidence of infant or maternal complications between the adolescent and adult maternal groups. However, birthweight, cesarean section, and labor and delivery complications were significantly related to race, with black subjects experiencing less favorable outcomes on these variables. Infants born to adolescent mothers scored significantly lower on the Mental Development Index of the Bayley relative to controls. Black infants also performed significantly lower on this Index compared to white infants. Home environments of infants born to adolescents were found to be significantly less nurturant than those of controls, and the HOME ratings for black subjects were significantly lower than those for whites.

AbstractObjectiveTo describe the gross motor development of infants who had undergone cardiac surgery in the neonatal or early infant period.MethodsGross motor performance was assessed when infants were 4, 8, 12, and 16 months of age with the Alberta Infant Motor Scale. This scale is a discriminative gross motor outcome measure that may be used to assess infants from birth to independent walking. Infants were videotaped during the assessment and were later evaluated by a senior paediatric physiotherapist who was blinded to each infant's medical history, including previous clinical assessments. Demographic, diagnostic, surgical, critical care, and medical variables were considered with respect to gross motor outcomes.ResultsA total of 50 infants who underwent elective or emergency cardiac surgery at less than or up to 8 weeks of age, between July 2006 and January 2008, were recruited to this study and were assessed at 4 months of age. Approximately, 92%, 84%, and 94% of study participants returned for assessment at 8, 12, and 16 months of age, respectively. Study participants had delayed gross motor development across all study time points; 62% of study participants did not have typical gross motor development during the first year of life. Hospital length of stay was associated with gross motor outcome across infancy.ConclusionActive gross motor surveillance of all infants undergoing early cardiac surgery is recommended. Further studies of larger congenital heart disease samples are required, as are longitudinal studies that determine the significance of these findings at school age and beyond.

Abstract:
Smooth tracking and efficient reaching for moving objects require the ability to predict the velocity and trajectory of the object. This skill is important to be able to perceive human action and object motion in the world. This thesis explores early visual motor development in full term and preterm infants. Study I showed that horizontal eye tracking develops ahead of vertical (full term infants at 5, 7 and 9 months of age). The vertical component is also more affected when a second dimension is added during circular pursuit. It is concluded that different mechanisms appear to underlie vertical and horizontal eye movements Study II-IV compared the development of the ability to visually track and reach for moving objects in very preterm infants born <32 gestational weeks to healthy infants born at term. The development of horizontal smooth pursuit at 2 and 4 months of corrected age was delayed for the preterm group (Study II). Some infants were catching up whereas others were not improving at all. A question raised by the results was whether the delay was caused by specific injuries as a result of the prematurity. However, the delays persisted when all infants with known neonatal complications and infants born small for gestational age were excluded (Study III), indicating that they were caused by prematurity per se. At 8 months corrected age preterm and full term infants were equally good at aiming reaches and successfully catching a moving object. Nevertheless, the preterm group used a bimanual strategy more often and had a more jerky and circuitous path than the full term group (Study IV). In summary, preterm infants showed a delayed visual motor development compared to infants born at term. The results of these studies suggest that there is additional diffuse damage to the visual motor system that is not related to neonatal complications as diagnosed today. Measuring smooth pursuit could potentially be a new method for early non-invasive diagnosis of impaired visual function.

Resumo: Com o objetivo de avaliar e correlacionar o estado nutricional e a atividade motora de Lactentes Sibilantes em processo de internação hospitalar, este estudo transversal foi realizado com uma coorte de 28 crianças com diagnóstico de Lactente Sibilante de 03 a 18 meses de vida internadas na enfermaria de pediatria do Hospital Estadual Sumaré/UNICAMP. Um segundo grupo de 28 lactentes saudáveis de escolas municipais de Ribeirão Preto e São Paulo foram igualmente avaliados com a finalidade de promover um pareamento com o primeiro grupo. O critério de pareamento foi o sexo e idade da criança. O período total do estudo compreendeu de 15 de agosto de 2005 a 04 de maio de 2007. Foram colhidos dados pessoais, antropometria e avaliação da função motora no momento da internação hospitalar para os Lactentes Sibilantes e durante período escolar para o grupo controle. A análise antropométrica foi feita por meio da medida de peso e comprimento da criança. Foi calculado o escore z do peso, altura e relação peso/altura e utilizadas as curvas do National Center of Health Statistics (NCHS, 2000). Para avaliação motora foi aplicada a Escala Alberta de Avaliação Motora (AIMS). Para obtenção do escore e percentil da escala, todas as posições assumidas pela criança foram registradas na folha de testes após observação da filmagem da movimentação espontânea nas posições prono, supino, sentado e em pé. Além da pesquisadora, foi solicitada a observação das filmagens por uma profissional especializada na área de neurologia infantil. Somente após a verificação e compatibilidade dos dois pareceres a pontuação foi registrada. Foram observadas a influência do z escore de peso e altura com relação ao escore da avaliação motora e escolaridade materna e nível socioeconômico não apresentaram influencia. Os resultados indicaram que houve atraso na função motora e aspecto nutricional deficitário no grupo de Lactentes Sibilantes

Abstract:
This thesis assesses the link between action and cognition early in development. Thus the notion of an embodied cognition is investigated by tying together two levels of action control in the context of reaching in infancy: prospective motor control and executive functions. The ability to plan our actions is the inevitable foundation of reaching our goals. Thus actions can be stratified on different levels of control. There is the relatively low level of prospective motor control and the comparatively high level of cognitive control. Prospective motor control is concerned with goal-directed actions on the level of single movements and movement combinations of our body and ensures purposeful, coordinated movements, such as reaching for a cup of coffee. Cognitive control, in the context of this thesis more precisely referred to as executive functions, deals with goal-directed actions on the level of whole actions and action combinations and facilitates directedness towards mid- and long-term goals, such as finishing a doctoral thesis. Whereas prospective motor control and executive functions are well studied in adulthood, the early development of both is not sufficiently understood. This thesis comprises three empirical motion-tracking studies that shed light on prospective motor control and executive functions in infancy. Study I investigated the prospective motor control of current actions by having 14-month-olds lift objects of varying weights. In doing so, multi-cue integration was addressed by comparing the use of visual and non-visual information to non-visual information only. Study II examined the prospective motor control of future actions in action sequences by investigating reach-to-place actions in 14-month-olds. Thus the extent to which Fitts’ law can explain movement duration in infancy was addressed. Study III lifted prospective motor control to a higher that is cognitive level, by investigating it relative to executive functions in 18-months-olds. Main results were that 14-month-olds are able to prospectively control their manual actions based on object weight. In this action planning process, infants use different sources of information. Beyond this ability to prospectively control their current action, 14-month-olds also take future actions into account and plan their actions based on the difficulty of the subsequent action in action sequences. In 18-month-olds, prospective motor control in manual actions, such as reaching, is related to early executive functions, as demonstrated for behavioral prohibition and working memory. These findings are consistent with the idea that executive functions derive from prospective motor control. I suggest that executive functions could be grounded in the development of motor control. In other words, early executive functions should be seen as embodied.

The principle of proximo-distal direction of motor development is investigated in this study. Treatment of motor dysfunction has often been based upon the assumption that development occurs first in proximal muscle groups and then in distal groups. A longitudinal study was done on ten infants at five, seven, and nine months of age. Proximal and distal skills were measured and the relationship between them was studied. Two scales were used to assess the infant's reaching abilities (proximal skills), and prehension abilities (distal skills). The scales were developed by Loria (1978) and represented a combination of fmdings from studies done by Halverson (1931, 1932), Gesell and Amatruda (1947) and Kopp (1974). In Loria's scales (1980) unequal weight was given to the criteria used. In the present study however, the scales were modified so that each item was weighted equally. Both scales were used in this research, Loria's Original Scales and the new Adapted Scales. High positive correlations were found between proximal and distal scales of infant motor development at 5, 7, and 9 months of age. An exception was observed at the 9 months of age when using Loria's Original Scales, where results showed significantly lower correlations. However, when using the modified version of the scales, the correlations found suggest that both skills develop simultaneously or co-occur in infants at these ages.

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi descrever o desenvolvimento motor de crianças de 0 a 18 meses de idade, identificando os principais fatores de risco para atraso motor, assim como, analisar a validade da Alberta Infant Motor Scale para avaliação do desenvolvimento motor de crianças gaúchas, verificando a representatividade de seus critérios motores. A amostra deste pesquisa foi de 561 crianças, provenientes de Escolas de Educação Infantil, Creches, Entidades e Unidades Básicas de Saúde. Os instrumentos utilizados na coleta de dados foram: 1) Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS); 2) Affordance in the Home Environment Motor Development (AHEMD); 3) Questionário estruturado com perguntas sobre características biológicas. Das crianças avaliadas, 63,5% foram consideradas com desenvolvimento motor normal para idade, sendo que os bebês com idade entre 3 e 12 meses foram os que demonstraram pior desempenho. Foi observado uma inferioridade nos comportamentos motores referentes as posturas prono e em pé. Entre os fatores biológicos de maior influência, destacaram-se o baixo peso ao nascer, a prematuridade e o tempo de internação na UTI. No que se refere aos fatores sócio-ambientais, destacaram-se a escolaridade dos familiares; o grau de instrução paterna, a renda familiar mensal, o número de adultos e de crianças que vivem na casa, tempo carregado no colo e número de brinquedos para motricidade fina e ampla. Quanto ao processo de Validação da AIMS, as análises de correlação, associação e consistência interna indicaram que a AIMS é válida e fidedigna para população gaúcha. Conclui-se que as crianças apresentaram seqüência progressiva do aparecimento de habilidades motoras nas posturas avaliadas, porém parte destas foram consideradas com desenvolvimento motor inferior ao esperado para idade. Sugere-se que os fatores biológicos, contextuais e o instrumento de avaliação influenciaram no desenvolvimento motor das crianças avaliadas, sendo a AIMS um instrumento significativamente útil e confiável para utilização em várias áreas da pesquisa científica e clínica.
The purpose of the present study was describe the motor development of infants aging from 0 to 18 months and verify the influence of the biological and socio-environmental risk factors and analyze the validation of Alberta Infant Motor Scale to evaluate the motor development of southern children, analyzing the representativeness of the instrument´s items. The sample was composed of 561 children, coming from Kinder gardens, Children Education schools, Health Basic Units of Rio Grande do Sul. The instruments used were: 1) Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS); 2) Affordance in the Home Environment Motor Development (AHEMD); 3) biological factors through structured questionnaire. From the evaluated infants, 63, 5% were considered with a regular motor development for their age, and the babies aging from 3 to 12 months were the ones with the worst development. It was found inferiority in the motor behaviors regarding the prono and standing postures. Among the biological factors with a major influence, the low weight when they are born, the prematureness and the time they spend in the intensive treatment unit (ITU) are prominent. In relation to the socioenvironmental factors, the parents’ schoolarity; the father’s instruction, the family’s income, the number of adults and children that live in the house, the time being hold and the number of toys for fine and global motricity. On the Validation process, the analysis of correlation, association and internal consistency indicate that the AIMS is valid and trustworthy in the evaluation of infants motor acquisitions of southern children. Conclused that the infants from this study presented a progressive sequence of appearance of motor abilities in the evaluated postures, however parts of these were considered with an inferior motor development according to what was expected by their age. It is suggested that, either the socio-environment risk factor as well as the biological and evaluation instrument influenced in the motor development of the infants, being the AIMS a significatively useful and reliable instrument to several areas of clinic and scientific research.

A prematuridade se caracteriza por ser qualitativamente distinta do nascimento de termo, em função das intercorrências neonatais, do impacto do período de permanência na incubadora e da influência da ação da gravidade no desenvolvimento postural, do equilíbrio e da locomoção. Este estudo teve como OBJETIVOS: 1- comparar a coordenação motora axial de lactentes pré-termo (RNPT) saudáveis, com a de lactentes de termo (RNT), por meio dos escores da Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS), segundo a idade cronológica (ICr) e corrigida (ICo), a partir do termo até a utilização da marcha independente como principal meio de locomoção; 2- verificar período de aquisição, entre RNPT e RNT, segundo ICo, de 7 itens avaliados pela AIMS (transição de quatro apoios para sentado; engatinhar; segurar o(s) pé(s) em supino; sentar-se independente; transição de sentado para quatro apoios; ficar em pé sem apoio; marcha independente); 3- determinar a influência de variáveis biológicas e sóciodemográficas para obtenção da marcha em RNPT. MÉTODOS: estudo coorte, prospectivo, observacional, mensal e comparativo entre 101 RNPT (grupo de estudo) e 52 RNT (grupo controle). Foram ajustados modelo de regressão beta e equações de estimação generalizada para curvas de ICr e ICo, a fim de comparar a média mensal dos escores entre os grupos. Para comparar as idades de aquisição dos sete itens da AIMS entre os RNT e RNPT, foram utilizadas estimativas de Turnbull da distribuição da idade e modelo de taxa de falhas proporcionais de Cox para censuras intervalares. Para análise estatística dos resultados das médias mensais entre os grupos e as idades de aquisição dos itens, recorreu-se à construção de intervalo de confiança (IC). Para análise das variáveis prognósticas no tempo da aquisição da marcha nos RNPT, análise de sobrevivência para censuras intervalares e modelo de regressão Weibull foram utilizados. O nível de significância considerado foi < 5%. RESULTADOS: Finalizaram o estudo 77 RNPT e 49 RNT. Os escores segundo ICr dos RNPT demonstraram ser estatisticamente inferiores em relação aos dos RNT. Segundo a ICo, os escores dos RNPT tornaram-se equivalentes aos dos RNT, não demonstrando diferença estatística significativa. Dos 7 itens analisados, somente em pé sem apoio e a marcha foram adquiridos mais tardiamente pelos RNPT. As variáveis biológicas com influência significante no tempo de aquisição da marcha foram: peso ao nascimento (PN), estatura ao nascimento (EN) e permanência no hospital após nascimento. CONCLUSÃO: A coordenação motora axial dos RNPT deve ser avaliada segundo ICo para não ser subestimada. A aquisição da marcha e a posição em pé sem apoio se desenvolvem mais tardiamente nos RNPT. Além disto, a aquisição da marcha em RNPT foi tão mais tardia quanto menor o PN e EN, assim como o longo período de internação após o nascimento retardaram a marcha nos RNPT.
The prematurity characterizes to be qualitatively different from term delivery, due to neonatal morbidities, impact of the long period in the incubator and the influence of gravidity in the postural development. This study has as OBJECTIVES:1- to compare the gross motor development in healthy preterm infants (PT) with term infants (T), using Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) scores, according to corrected and chronological ages, from term to walking independently; 2- To compare the age attainment of seven AIMS items, according to corrected age (four-point kneeling to sitting; reciprocal creeping; hands to feet in supine; sitting independently; sitting to four-point kneeling; stand alone; early stepping) between PT and T infants; 3- To study biologic and sociodemographic factors that affect walking attainment in PT. METHODS: cohort, prospective, observational monthly and comparative study between 101 PT and 52 T. In order to compare descriptively mean monthly scores, beta regression models and general estimated equations were used to adjust the chronological and corrected age graphics and for statistics purposes, the confidence interval of monthly mean scores were used. Turnbull estimation of age distribution and Cox´s proportional hazards model were used to compare the age in each seven items between groups. For prognostic factors of age walking attainment in PT, methods of Kaplan-Meyer and Weibull regression model were used. The level of significance was considered significant, if p < 5%. RESULTS: 77 PT and 49 T infants finished the study. Chronological age scores of PT were statistically lower in comparison with T scores. According to corrected age, PT monthly mean scores were not statistically different from T scores. Of seven analysed items, only standing alone and early stepping were attained later in PT infants. The variables that seemed to influence statistically in age of walking attainment were: birth weight and stature and duration of hospitalization. CONCLUSION: Gross motor development of PT infants should be assessed according to corrected age, in order not to be underestimated. The both milestones standing alone and early stepping developed later in PT infants. The lower the birth stature and weight were, the longer it took for the PT infants to attain walking, while the longer the PT newborns stayed hospitalized, the later they started walking.

Abstract:
Introdução: a carência de estudos descrevendo a trajetória motora de crianças brasileiras na primeira infância, assim como, a ausência de instrumentos normatizados para avaliação do desempenho motor nesta idade, dificultam a triagem de atrasos motores. Existe a possibilidade de erros na categorização e interpretação das avaliações sempre que usadas normas de amostras populacionais com características socioculturais diferentes. Objetivos: a) descrever e interpretar a trajetória do desenvolvimento motor e a maestria nas aquisições posturais antigravitacionais de crianças brasileiras de 0 a 18 meses; b) descrever as diferenças existentes no desenvolvimento motor de meninos e meninas brasileiras de 0 a 18 meses de idade; c) comparar as médias dos escores e os percentis de crianças brasileiras com resultados de outras amostras populacionais; d) criar normas para a interpretação dos resultados das avaliações da Alberta Infant Motor Scale no Brasil, com a apresentação da média dos escores e os percentis para cada idade e sexo. Métodos: estudo descritivo e observacional, transversal (cross-seccional), do qual participaram 795 crianças de Instituições, Hospitais, Unidades Básicas de Saúde e Escolas de Educação Infantil. A Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) foi utilizada para avaliar o desenvolvimento motor das crianças brasileiras. Os resultados de pesquisas com as amostras populacionais da Grécia (424 crianças) e do Canadá (2.400 crianças) foram utilizados nos estudos de comparação. Utilizou-se estatística descritiva, teste U Mann Whitney, teste t one-sample e binomial, sendo significante p<0,05. Resultados: os resultados indicaram: a) ocorre aumento alinear das aquisições motoras das crianças brasileiras com o passar da idade e aparecimento de platôs a partir dos 15 meses; b) a primeira posição na qual a criança adquire maestria é em supino e por último na posição sentado; c) a trajetória de desenvolvimento motor de meninos e meninas é semelhante; d) a trajetória motora das crianças brasileiras difere das crianças canadenses e gregas; e) o aparecimento do controle postural antigravitacional é mais tardio nas crianças brasileiras; f) pouca variação nos valores dos percentis até o primeiro mês de vida e após os 15 meses, demonstrando pouca sensibilidade da AIMS para diferenciar o desempenho motor de crianças nestas idades; g) os percentis nacionais descritos para adequada caracterização do desempenho das crianças brasileiras de 0 a 18 meses de idade diferem dos apresentados para a amostra canadense. Discussão: os escores brutos e percentis mais baixos da amostra brasileira reforçam a necessidade do uso de normas nacionais para categorizar adequadamente o desempenho motor da criança. Deve- se ter cautela ao utilizar a AIMS para avaliar crianças nos 2 primeiros meses de vida e após os 15 meses ou aquisição da marcha independente. As diferentes trajetórias do desenvolvimento motor são, possivelmente, decorrentes de diferenças sociais e culturais existentes entre os países.
Introduction: The lack of studies describing the motor trajectory’s brazilian children in early childhood, as well as, the absence of standardized instruments for assessment of motor development at this age, hinder screening of motor delays. There is the possibility of errors in categorization and interpretation of evaluations where the standards are sample with different sociocultural characteristics. Objectives: The purposes of this research were: a) describing and interpreting the trajectory of motor development and skill of antigravity and postural acquisitions of Brazilian children aging from 0 to 18 months; b) describing the existing differences on motor development of Brazilian boys and girls aging from 0 to 18 months; c) comparing scores and percentiles of Brazilian children with results from other population samples; d) creating norms to interpreting results of the evaluations of the Alberta Infant Motor Scale in Brazil, with presentation of scores and percentiles means to each age and gender group. Methods: It was a descriptive and observational, transactional study, in which participated 795 children from Institutions, Hospitals, Health Basic Unities and Schools and Primary Schools. The Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) was used to evaluate motor development of Brazilian children. Results of researches with population samples from Greece (424 children) and from Canada (2.400 children) were used in comparison studies. Descriptive statistic was used, as well as, one sample t test, U Mann Whitney and binomial. Values p≤0,05 were considered statistically significative. Results: The results show that: a) there’s a nonlinear increase of the number of motor acquisitions on Brazilian children during the years and appearance of plateaus since 15 months of life; b) the first position a child acquires skill is supine, ending with sitting position; c) trajectory of motor development of boys and girls is similar; d) motor trajectory of Brazilian children is different from Canadian and Greek children; 3) appearance of antigravity and postural control is late in Brazilian children; f) little variation on numbers of percentiles to the first month of life and after 15 months, showing little sensibility of the AIMS to notice differences on motor performance in children at these ages; and g) national percentiles described to adequate characterization of Brazilian children’s performance aging from 0 to 18 months are different from the ones from Canadian sample. Discussion and conclusions: The lower raw scores and percentiles of the Brazilian sample reinforce the need of the use of national norms to categorize properly motor development. Should be cautious when using AIMS to assess children in the first 2 months of life and after 15 months or acquisition of the independent walking. The different trajectories on motor development are probably due to social and cultural differences between countries.

Abstract:
Background: After birth, the growth and growth of boys will tend to be faster than girls and will last until a certain moment. This is affected by testosterone, a hormone that is higher in male babies than in female babies. The employment status of mothers may affect the role and presence of mothers in stimulating children to achieve motor development according to their age. Working mothers can have a negative or positive influence on the development of children. The negative impact of working mothers is that the presence of the mother in the child’s daily life is lower than that of the mother who is not working, so that the mother can provide motivation and stimulation. This study aimed to determine the gender and occupation relationship on fine motor skill among infants aged 6-11 months. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study of 284 infants aged 6-11 months. This study was carried out in eight community health centres in Kulon Progo Regency, Yogyakarta. The dependent variable was fine motor skill. The independent variable was gender. Data on fine motoric development were based on the results of the pre-screening development questionnaire. Other data were collected from interview and questionnaire. Data were analyze using the Chi-square test. Results: There was a significant relationship between gender and fine motor development among infants aged 6-11 months. Conclusion: Gender is proven to have a significant relationship with fine motor development among infants aged 6-11 months.

Abstract:
Retinopathy of prematurity is caused by abnormal blood vessel development in the retina of a premature infant. Current options for surgery tables used in laser treatment of this condition are limited. Full-size operating tables or table attachments are used but provide restricted patient manipulation and cause the surgeon to assume ergonomically undesirable positions. A stand-alone four-degree-of-freedom (4-DOF) infant surgical table was designed and is presented in this paper. The new table enables the surgeon to manipulate the patient while sitting in a comfortable position. The table platform can pitch left/right and fore/aft. The table platform can rotate 360° and translate vertically. Two linear actuators and a motor with ball screw provide the three degrees of freedom for table pitch and rotation through a spherical wrist-mechanism. A ball screw and motor achieve vertical movement of the table platform. The rigors of surgery and associated space constraints were accounted for in this design. The design consists of three subassemblies which can be disassembled for transport between operating theaters. A wide base is used to prevent the table from tipping. Biocompatible materials have been selected for all parts. Lastly, foot controls are used to keep the surgeon’s hands free.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Impaired growth and development of children remains a serious problem globally. The role of the family, especially the support and participation of parents are the important factors in monitoring the growth and development of infants/ toddlers. This study aimed to determine the effect of family support on the growth and development of infants/ toddlers. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Kragilan Village, Mojolaban, Sukoharjo, Central Java in November 2018. The study subjects were total of 115 mothers with children aged 1-60 month. Multistage cluster sampling technique was conducted. Dependent variable was growth and development of children. Independent variable was family support. The data for family support was collected by questionnaire. The data for growth of infants/ toddlers was collected by assessing growth chart (monitoring whether weight gain or loss from previous month), assessing length/height-for-age (normal height or stunted), head circumference measurement (macrocephalic/ microcephalic/ normocephalic), and assessing teething chart (erupts/ loss of teeth in accordance with age or not). The data for development of infants/ toddlers was collected by evaluating the gross motor, fine motor, language, and social skills based on child development pre-screening questionnaire. Results: Good family support increases growth (b= 0.895; p <0.001) and development (b= 0.337; p <0.001) of infants/ toddlers. Conclusion: Good family support increases growth and development of infants/ toddlers. Keywords: family support, growth, development Correspondence: Fitria Hayu Palupi.

Abstract:
Premature and very low birthweight (VLBW) infants are susceptible to numerous injuries during, and after parturition. If these injuries are neurological in nature, they can result in long-term cognitive and motor skill deficiencies. Cerebral hemorrhaging is a disease that has disastrous consequences on preterm and VLBW infants, and the mechanism for this type of hemorrhaging is currently not known. Bleeding in the ventricle region of the brain is termed intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and occurs in 32% of infants with birth weights less than 1500 grams and born prior to 32 weeks gestation[1]; 75% of these will experience long-term neurological disabilities[2]. A lack of tissue structure of the cerebral vasculature in early stages of development is a possible underlying cause for such high occurrences of IVH[3,4,5]. Mechanical characterization of neonatal vasculature could show structural underdevelopment as the underlying cause of IVH and provide valuable insight into neonatal vascular development. We previously characterized the mechanical properties of whole umbilical cord arteries and found a correlation between vessel stiffness and gestational age[6]. Considerations of the helical structure of late term umbilical cord vessels prompted a revisit of the characterization of the vessels with altered testing methods. To negate the effects of the vessels’ tortuous structure on stiffness values, we tested axial and circumferential small strips of human umbilical cord artery at various gestational time.
