A recent study showed that BMD decreased in all children with cerebral palsy (CP), but to a greater extent in non-ambulant children with CP, and immobilization is the major effective factor on bone mineralization. See Bone mineral density in children with cerebral palsy. Tasdemir HA1, Buyukavci M, Akcay F, Polat P, Yildiran A, Karakelleoglu C. Available at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11285068
