Recommend Brazil scientists are studying a possible link between Zika virus in the womb and birth defects in the joints of newborn children, the importance of incorporating such defects in cases that are being monitored.
In the analysis of the cases of seven children with deformity, arthritis researchers said that such defects-known as arthrogryposis-perhaps the result of impact Zika neurons on the motion and the cells that control muscle contraction or is used in.

In all seven cases the mother was infected with a virus Zika or rash resembles symptoms during pregnancy or bosica she put a kid has a small head as abnormal.

Because of this recent study published in the British medical journal-journal Tuesday-only reviews previous research on cases of joint defects did not come to firm conclusions whether Zika direct cause in those distortions.

But scientists based in Brazilian city of Recife, where they said that Zeca infection spread this case was probably related to how the brain affects the Zeca, the way they carry out neurons on motion signals to the muscles of the child while in the womb.

Said Vanessa van der Linden researcher help handicapped children Association, which led the study that if a weak signal or abnormal in one form or another, this may lead to a constant situation foetus inside the uterus and then abnormalities in his joints.

She added in a telephone "don't know for sure because we believe that there is a problem with the nerve cells involved in the movement and damage incident probably linked to the virus. We need to study more cases to understand this better. "
