Given the much greater COVID-19 mortality risk experienced by people with intellectual disabilities (ID), understanding the willingness of people with ID to take a COVID-19 vaccine is a major public health issue.

Bone mineral density and fractures in institutionalised children with epilepsy and intellectual disability

J. J. L. Berkvens,S. Mergler,K. Beerhorst,P. Verschuure,I. Y. Tan,H. J. M. Majoie,J. P. W. van den Bergh

doi : 10.1111/jir.12880

Volume 65, Issue 11 p. 962-970

Long-term use of antiseizure drugs is associated with a low bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased fracture risk. The literature regarding institutionalised children on chronic antiseizure drugs is limited. Therefore, the aim of this cross-sectional study is to evaluate the prevalence of low BMD and the history of fractures in institutionalised children with epilepsy and intellectual disability (ID).

The LEDs move pilot study: the Light Curtain and physical activity and well-being among people with visual and intellectual disabilities

L. Enkelaar,R. Oosterom-Calo,D. Zhou,N. Nijhof,E. Barakova,P. Sterkenburg

Volume 65, Issue 11 p. 971-988

Moving around and being physically active can often be challenging for people with a visual impairment. The combination of a visual and intellectual disability can make being physically active even more difficult. The aim of the current study was to examine whether a technological device for physical activity promotion would be associated with more movement and whether using it would be experienced as enjoyable for people with visual and intellectual disabilities.

Association between physical fitness, body mass index and intelligence quotient in individuals with intellectual disabilities

R. Cabeza-Ruiz,M. E. Trigo-Sánchez,M. Rodríguez-Servián,P. T. Gómez-Píriz

doi : 10.1111/jir.12883

Volume 65, Issue 11 p. 989-997

Physical exercise seems to improve cognitive abilities at different physiological levels. Numerous studies have examined the relationship between physical fitness (PF), physical activity and cognition among populations without intellectual disabilities (ID), but very few have addressed this question with respect to people with ID. This study aimed to determine the correlation between intelligence quotient (IQ) and factors related to PF in healthy adults with ID.

Reviewing causes of death of individuals with intellectual disability in New South Wales, Australia: a record-linkage study

A. R. Walker,J. N. Trollor,S. Reppermund,P. Srasuebkul

doi : 10.1111/jir.12888

Volume 65, Issue 11 p. 998-1009

People with intellectual disability (ID) have a much higher mortality rate than the general population. To reduce the rate of mortality of people with ID, it is critical that causes of death are properly understood, recorded and reported. Formal reviews of causes of death are used in some countries to ensure that causes of death are accurate. To date, the impact of these formal reviews on understanding causes of death of people with ID has not been quantified.

A pilot randomised controlled trial of befriending by volunteers in people with intellectual disability and depressive symptoms

A. Ali,E. McKenzie,A. Hassiotis,S. Priebe,B. Lloyd-Evans,R. Jones,M. Panca,R. Omar,S. Finning,S. Moore,C. Roe,M. King

doi : 10.1111/jir.12886

Volume 65, Issue 11 p. 1010-1019

People with intellectual disability (ID) are more likely to experience chronic depression compared with the general population, which may be compounded by loneliness and lower levels of social support. Befriending aims to provide social support and promote engagement in community activities. No randomised controlled trials have examined whether befriending improves symptoms of depression and social outcomes in people with ID. The aim of this pilot trial was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a future larger trial of one-to-one befriending by volunteers in people with ID and depressive symptoms.
