Henry's own diagnosis is that "over the coming months and years the athetosis, those involuntary, uncontrolled movements, and the chorea-the helpless jitters, the grimacing, the jerky raising of the shoulders and flexing of fingers and toes--will overwhelm [Baxter], render him too absurd for the street" (218).

The subdivision of the chapter on "Principles of treatment" into subsections as per the type of cerebral palsy: children with severe spasticity, moderate spasticity, choreo-athetosis, dystonic athetosis, ataxia, hypotonia, and mixed is helpful in understanding the spectrum of cerebral palsy, its presentation and developmental approaches.

Following a brief overview of cerebral palsy and treatment approaches, the text classifies cerebral palsy into categories based on distinct pathophysiologies--hypotonia, hypertonia, quadriplegia, diplegia, congenital hemiplegia, athetosis, and ataxia.

Sequelae include cerebral palsy with athetosis (involuntary writhing movements), oculomotor damage, and high frequency hearing loss (Hayes, 2000).

The adverse side-effects of prolonged methamphetamine use can include paranoia, slurred speech, motor instability, violent behaviors (Hall, McPherson Twemlow, & Yudko, 2003), psychosis (Lin, Ball, Hsiao, Chiang, Ree, & Chen, 2004), and stereotypic behaviors such as purposeless physical activity, tremors, muscle tics, bruxism (teeth grinding), and athetosis (strange motor movements).

In basal ganglia diseases, dyskinesias may include chorea, tremors, tics, athetosis, myoclonus and dystonia.

Of the several types of cerebral palsy, spasticity and athetosis were the two involved in this study.

The children first exhibit hypotonic tendancies (a lack of muscular tone), but this eventually becomes a pattern of either spasticity (hypertonicity) or athetosis (involuntary limb motion) or both.

Severe overdoses may result in cerebral edema, tremors, athetosis, tonic-clonic seizures, coma, cardiovascular collapse, or death.
