Associations between deprivation and postneonatal cerebral palsy over 35 years: a population-based longitudinal study.

Key Points

To examine the relationship between socioeconomic deprivation and postneonatal cerebral palsy over a 35-year period.
Analyzed data from a population-based longitudinal study.
Investigated socioeconomic factors linked to postneonatal cerebral palsy.
Assessed trends in prevalence and disparities over time.
Prevalence of postneonatal cerebral palsy has declined over 35 years.
Significant socioeconomic inequalities persist in causes and outcomes.
Highlighted the need for targeted public health initiatives to address these disparities.

Abstract

Although prevalence has declined, socioeconomic inequalities remain in the causes and consequences of postneonatal CP. These findings highlight the need for targeted public health interventions and further research to address persistent disparities and prevent modifiable causes of CP.
