balance. The authors find that CP is very complex, so the number of children in
the research and control group is too small to be used for the whole sample of
the CP population. There are differences in the effects of children with a mild
form and a more severe form of CP.

The recognition that manifested throughout the history of proving and
measuring the effects of both H and TR, would point to a small sample of the
research and control group and the great variety of CP.
