The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health in conversation with

• Paige Church on Ableism

  Ableism is a type of discriminatory bias, like racism and sexism for example, that speaks particularly to the idea that there is one standard human norm that exists and any ways of being human that don't meet this standard are considered inferior. In this episode with neonatologist and developmental paediatrician Dr Paige Church we discuss the presence of ableism in paediatrics, and child and adolescent health at large. We consider how, despite the best intentions of paediatricians and other practitioners, we quickly assign value judgements and assume an inherently less meaningful life for children with disabilities or differences that do not meet normative standards or expected developmental milestones. Dr Church share's her own journey of reckoning with the invisible bias of ableism in her clinical practice in counselling parents in the NICU, shares tangible examples of how ableism plays out in neonatal and paediatric clinical care, and we discuss how children and families with disability often face multiple intersecting discriminatory biases-along race, gender, socioeconomic, neuro-normative and other lines-leading to a concentration of marginalisation and othering. Dr Church shares practical individual mindset and language shifts we can all make, that are of no cost to the healthcare system, to start to overcome ableist biases and support children, young people and their families to reach their unique optimal developmental potential.Click here to read the full article: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(25)00222-6/fulltextContinue this conversation on social!Follow us today at...https://thelancet.bsky.social/https://instagram.com/thelancetgrouphttps://facebook.com/thelancetmedicaljournalhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/lanchi/https://youtube.com/thelancettv

• Ann Yeh on paediatric-onset multiple sclerosis

  Paediatric-onset multiple sclerosis before the age of 18 years, although uncommon, is associated with a higher disease burden than adult onset MS, early and progressive motor and cognitive disability, and high levels of depression and fatigue. In this episode Ann Yeh, Professor of Paediatrics and neurologist in Toronto, Canada, highlights the global considerations in preventing MS disease progression in young people with MS, including achieving global equity in access to diagnostics, specialist services, and highly-effective disease modifying therapies for adolescents and young adults with MS.Read the Review in this month's issue here:https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(25)00133-6/fulltext?dgcid=buzzsprout_icw_podcast_August_25_lanchiDisease-modifying therapies in managing disability worsening in paediatric-onset multiple sclerosis: a longitudinal analysis of global and national registries https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(24)00047-6/fulltext?dgcid=buzzsprout_icw_podcast_August_25_lanchiReal-life benefits of high-efficacy therapies for children with multiple sclerosis https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(24)00074-9/fulltext?dgcid=buzzsprout_icw_podcast_August_25_lanchiContinue this conversation on social!Follow us today at...https://thelancet.bsky.social/https://instagram.com/thelancetgrouphttps://facebook.com/thelancetmedicaljournalhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/lanchi/https://youtube.com/thelancettv
