These findings will facilitate harmonization of data and collaborative research efforts, which are so necessary on account of the heterogeneity and...

Comparing risks of cerebral palsy in births between Australian Indigenous and non-Indigenous mothers

Indigenous infants have a higher risk of CP than non-Indigenous infants, especially postneonatal CP.

Cerebral palsy and perinatal mortality after pregnancy-induced hypertension across the gestational age spectrum: Observations of a reconstructed total population cohort

Changing the focus of cerebral palsy

The cost of respiratory hospitalizations in children with cerebral palsy

Respiratory Health Inequities among Children and Young Adults with Cerebral Palsy in Aotearoa New Zealand: A Data Linkage Study

Respiratory disease is a leading cause of morbidity, mortality, and poor quality of life in children with cerebral palsy (CP). This study describes the prevalence of CP-related respiratory disease and the non-modifiable risk factors for respiratory-related hospital admissions in the Aotearoa New Zealand population.
