A comprehensive picture of the regulatory regions of the three genes involved in Rett Syndrome

Rett syndrome: establishing a novel outcome measure for walking activity in an era of clinical trials for rare disorders

This study investigated the capacity of three accelerometer-type devices to measure walking activity in Rett syndrome

Experience of gastrostomy using a quality care framework: The example of rett syndrome

Gastrostomy assisted the management of feeding difficulties and poor weight gain, and was acceptable to families

Approaches to study the lifelong trajectories of children with neurodevelopmental conditions

We argue that population-based studies are critical to overcome the selection bias seen in many clinical samples and to identify true variability within a...

Management of oral and dental problems in Rett syndrome: a narrative review of the literature

Review of the available dental literature on assessment and management of the oral manifestations of Rett syndrome

Feasibility and Effectiveness of an Individualized 12-Week "Uptime" Participation (U-PART) Intervention in Girls and Women With Rett Syndrome

The U-PART intervention was found to be feasible and effective in the short term in girls and women with Rett Syndrome

Oral health care and service utilisation in individuals with Rett syndrome: an international cross-sectional study

There is a dearth of literature available on the comparative oral health status of those with Rett syndrome (RTT) despite diurnal bruxism being a supportive diagnostic criterion for the disorder. This study was designed to investigate the dental experiences of individuals with RTT in terms of perceived at-home and professional dental care.

Longitudinal effects of caregiving on parental well-being: the example of Rett syndrome, a severe neurological disorder

Our findings suggest that some opportunities do exist for clinicians to help optimise parental well-being

Associations between genotype, phenotype and behaviours measured by the Rett syndrome behaviour questionnaire in Rett syndrome

Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder with developmental impairments, comorbidities, and abnormal behaviours such as hand stereotypies and emotional features. The Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire (RSBQ) was developed to describe the behavioural and emotional features of RTT.

International workshop: what is needed to ensure outcome measures for Rett syndrome are fit-for-purpose for clinical trials? June 7, 2023, Nashville, USA

The clinical, research and advocacy communities for Rett syndrome are striving to achieve clinical trial readiness, including having fit-for-purpose clinical outcome assessments. This study aimed to (1) describe psychometric properties of clinical outcome assessment for Rett syndrome and (2) identify what is needed to ensure that fit-for-purpose clinical outcome assessments are available for clinical trials.
