We aim to share our research findings with families so that they may better understand Rett syndrome and the future for their family.
We interviewed 17 parents with a daughter with Rett syndrome to gain their perspectives on how their daughter communicates and barriers.
For this study, we examined how Rett syndrome characteristics can be affected by X-inactivation for 2 of the common types of mutation - p.R168X and p.T158M.
We set out to describe the feeding difficulties and nutrition of girls with Rett syndrome and to examine what factors may be influencing their nutrition.
Therefore, we used video data to examine changes in hand function over time. We also investigated what other factors might influence these changes.
