This study measured changes in bone density over time using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Lean tissue or muscle mass (LTM) was also measured.
We wanted to assess bone mineral content and bone mass density in girls and women in our Australian study, and whether specific factors had any influence.
We described the occurrence of scoliosis in Rett syndrome, how it develops and how it is influenced by the individual's age, mutation type, and walking ability.
Twenty-five families of girls who underwent a spinal fusion between 2006-2012 were interviewed to explore the course of their daughter's recovery.
Using information provided by the Rett study, we looked at relationships of early development, genetic characteristics and the development of scoliosis.
Using a large sample size, we investigated the relationships between epilepsy and genotype, and the impact of medications used on seizure management.
Many girls and women with Rett syndrome experience seizures. We wanted to know if there were any factors that influenced the age when seizures first developed.
We collected information on a monthly basis on the patterns of seizures and medications of 162 girls in the Australian Rett Syndrome study over a calendar year.
