PURPOSE
To explore whether cognitive functioning in patients with meningomyelocele (MMC) is related to level of everyday physical activity.
METHOD
In a cross-sectional study in 14 patients with MMC (aged 14 - 26 years) a neuropsychological test battery was administered to each patient. Everyday physical activity of the patients was measured with an accelerometry-based Activity Monitor (AM), and compared to 14 healthy comparison subjects.
RESULTS
Intellectual ability of 10 patients was in the normal range. For memory and verbal learning, executive functioning, divided attention and reaction speed subnormal scores were present in six or more patients. Time spent on dynamic activities was low in patients with MMC as compared to healthy subjects. After controlling for intellectual ability, we found that in patients with MMC (i) executive functioning was positively related, and (ii) word production was negatively related to everyday physical activity.
CONCLUSION
We found some indication that specific impairments in executive functioning might be related to everyday physical activity of adolescents and young adults with MMC.
目的
探讨脊髓脊膜膨出（MMC）患者的认知功能是否与日常身体活动水平相关。
方法
在一项针对14例MMC患者（年龄14 - 26岁）的横断面研究中，对每位患者进行了一套神经心理学测试。使用基于加速度计的活动监测器（AM）测量患者的日常身体活动，并与14名健康对照受试者进行比较。
结果
10例患者的智力能力在正常范围内。在记忆和言语学习、执行功能、分散注意力和反应速度方面，有6名或更多患者得分低于正常水平。与健康受试者相比，MMC患者进行动态活动的时间较少。在控制智力能力后，我们发现MMC患者中：（i）执行功能与日常身体活动呈正相关，（ii）言语产生与日常身体活动呈负相关。
结论
我们发现一些迹象表明，执行功能的特定损害可能与患有MMC的青少年和年轻人的日常身体活动有关。
