Research

Amidst the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, understanding the transmission dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is key to providing peace of mind for the community and informing policy-making decisions. While available data suggest that school-aged children are not significant spreaders of SARS-CoV-2, the possibility of transmission in schools remains an ongoing concern, especially among an aging teaching workforce. Even in low-prevalence settings, communities must balance the potential risk of transmission with the need for students' ongoing education.

The Australian Rett Syndrome Study is based at The Kids Research Institute Australia located in Subiaco, Western Australia. This study was established in 1993.

Funded by the International Rett Syndrome Foundation, this international online database examines the clinical features and genetic characteristics.

One of the many reasons for setting up the International CDKL5 Disorder Database was to learn more about this condition.

With the help of clinicians and families who have children with Rett syndrome, our research aims to improve understanding of Rett syndrome.

This study used information from international Rett syndrome database to investigate the relationship between clinical characteristics and different mutations.

Using information from the Australian Rett Syndrome database, we coded symptoms according to severity scales and grouped by type and location of mutation.

Therefore, we wanted to compare the features of girls and women with a C-terminal deletion with those with other MECP2 mutations.

We investigated the occurrence of altered pain sensitivity as well as how these altered reactions to pain were observed during daily life.
