As of 2024, around 1,278 babies in the United States were born each year with spina bifida without anencephaly. Spina bifida, anencephaly, and encephalocele are neural tube defects in which the neural tube does not close properly, often resulting in damage to the spinal cord and nerves. This statistic shows the number of babies affected each year by select brain/spine birth defects in the United States as of 2024.

In the period 2016-2020, babies born from Hispanic mothers in the United States had the highest rates of spina bifida without anencephaly, with around 4.2 babies born with this defect per 10,000 live births. Spina bifida, anencephaly, and encephalocele are neural tube defects in which the neural tube does not close properly, often resulting in damage to the spinal cord and nerves. This statistic shows the rate of select central nervous system birth defects in the United States from 2016 to 2020, by maternal race/ethnicity.

The spina bifida treatment market is projected to be valued at $600 million in 2024, driven by factors such as increasing consumer awareness and the rising prevalence of industry-specific trends. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.1%, reaching approximately $1.2 billion by 2034.

In 2019, it was estimated that the mean cost of hospitalizations with an encephalocele discharge diagnosis among those aged less than 65 years was around ****** U.S. dollars. Spina bifida, anencephaly, and encephalocele are neural tube defects in which the neural tube does not close properly, often resulting in damage to the spinal cord and nerves. This statistic shows the mean cost of U.S. hospitalizations with a brain/spine birth defect–associated discharge diagnosis among those aged less than 65 years in 2019.

Original survey questions and anonymised participants' replies data set.The survey (available in Microsoft Word document) is composed of 86 multiple choice questions, where multiple responses were possible. Questions are grouped in six main categories:General information: demographic data, bowel symptoms, how general health condition is perceived as impacting on bowel symptoms.Bowel management history: data on onset of bowel symptoms, bowel management methods and health care professional support.Reaching good bowel care: data on healthcare seeking behaviour and access to specialist health care professionals.Bowel management over time: data on bowel symptom changes over time, bowel management challenges and factors influencing bowel symptoms.Reaching transanal irrigation: data on TAI usage to explore routine, challenges and benefits.Perception of treatment explored: what people would like to achieve in their bowel care and if this changes according to life situation.Partecipant answers (available in Microsoft Excel documents) are transferred in spreadsheet and reviewed by the authors. Descriptive analysis only was possible. We described how people with Multiple Sclerosis, Spinal Cord Injury and Spina bifida expressed their preference, we do not intend to add a qualitative or quantitative description.The analysis focused on the most generalisable data on the lived experience of participants with Neurogenic Bowel Dysfunction.

Spina bifida is one of the most common neural tube defects (NTDs) with a complex etiology. Variants in planar cell polarity (PCP) genes have been associated with NTDs including spina bifida in both animal models and human cohorts. In this study, we sequenced all exons of CELSR1 in 192 spina bifida patients from a California population to determine the contribution of CELSR1 mutations in the studied population. Novel and rare variants identified in these patients were subsequently genotyped in 190 ethnically matched control individuals. Six missense mutations not found in controls were predicted to be deleterious by both SIFT and PolyPhen. Two TG dinucleotide repeat variants were individually detected in 2 spina bifida patients but not detected in controls. In vitro functional analysis showed that the two TG dinucleotide repeat variants not only changed subcellular localization of the CELSR1 protein, but also impaired the physical association between CELSR1 and VANGL2, and thus diminished the ability to recruit VANGL2 for cell-cell contact. In total, 3% of our spina bifida patients carry deleterious or predicted to be deleterious CELSR1 mutations. Our findings suggest that CELSR1 mutations contribute to the risk of spina bifida in a cohort of spina bifida patients from California.

The spina bifida in-utero interventions market is projected to be valued at $450 million in 2024, driven by factors such as increasing consumer awareness and the rising prevalence of industry-specific trends. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5%, reaching approximately $1.2 billion by 2034.

Abstract (en): In the past few years it has become alarmingly clear that women with disabilities are at an extremely high risk for emotional, sexual, and physical assault. The Developmental Disabilities Institute at Wayne State University, in collaboration with the United Cerebral Palsy Association in Michigan, conducted a one-year study to investigate the prevalence and correlates of, and service system capacity related to, domestic abuse among women with physical disabilities in Michigan. The study aimed to address the following research questions: (1) What is the prevalence of domestic violence among a sample of women with physical disabilities? (2) What potential factors for domestic violence exist among women with physical disabilities? and (3) What is the capacity of existing support programs (e.g., safe houses, shelters, and service agencies) to assist women with physical disabilities? The population for this study was women over the age of 18 who had physical disabilities. Consistent with the work of other researchers, physical disabilities in this study were defined as those disabilities that result in functional impairment, such as cerebral palsy, post-polio syndrome, spina bifida, amputation, rheumatic conditions, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, visual impairment, hearing impairment, and stroke. A sample of 177 women was recruited through several mechanisms. To address the question of domestic abuse prevalence, the women participating in the study were first asked to complete a brief questionnaire addressing demographic characteristics and their experience with domestic violence (Part 1, Screening Interview Data). Fifty-six percent (100) of the 177 women interviewed indicated a positive history of abuse at their initial screening. In order to address the second research question about the correlates of abuse, this subsample of 100 women was invited and encouraged to participate in the second phase of the research, which involved a more extensive interview (Part 2, Abuse Interview Data). The interview used was based on a protocol developed by Nosek (1995) that addressed demographic characteristics, social networks, and abuse history. Variables in Parts 1 and 2 include type of disability, type of personal assistance needed, and whether the respondent was ever physically, emotionally, or sexually abused. Part 2 also contains variables on sources of monthly income, who perpetrated the abuse, the abuser's gender, how long the victim knew the abuser, whether the victim sought assistance from a domestic violence program or shelter, and a description of the worst incident of physical abuse. Demographic variables in Parts 1 and 2 include ethnicity, age, employment status, and marital status. In the past few years it has become alarmingly clear that women with disabilities are at an extremely high risk for emotional, sexual, and physical assault. The Developmental Disabilities Institute at Wayne State University, in collaboration with the United Cerebral Palsy Association in Michigan, conducted a one-year study to investigate the prevalence and correlates of, and service system capacity related to, domestic abuse among women with physical disabilities in Michigan. The study aimed to address the following research questions: (1) What is the prevalence of domestic violence among a sample of women with physical disabilities?
