objective: the aim of this study was to assess and compare the effect of two neurofeedback protocols (smr/theta and beta/theta) on adhd symptoms, selective attention and eeg (electroencephalogram) parameters in children with adhd. method: the sample consisted of 16 children (9-15 year old: 13 boys; 3 girls) with adhd-combined type (adhd-c). all of children used methylphenidate (mph) during the ...

Our brain is a complex network of structurally and functionally interconnected regions, shaped to efficiently process and integrate information. The development from a brain equipped with basic functionalities to an efficient network facilitating complex behavior starts during gestation and continues into adulthood. Resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) enables the examination of developmental...

Several decades of neuroimaging research in psychiatry have shed light on structural and functional neural abnormalities associated with individual psychiatric disorders. However, there is increasing evidence for substantial overlap the patterns dysfunction seen across disorders, suggesting that risk illness may be shared diagnostic boundaries. Gaining insights existence mechanisms which transd...

oral feeding difficulties are common in children with cerebral palsy (cp). the effect of oral-motor dysfunction on feeding problems has been proved in several studies. the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oral sensorimotor stimulations on feeding performance in children with spastic cerebral palsy. a total of 12 children with spastic cerebral palsy underwent 24 session...

Neuropsychomotor development (DNPM) is a journey of great transformations. It begins at the moment conception and continues throughout life, allowing acquisition functionality independence for increasingly complex elaborate activities in adult individual. Intellectual, physical, socio-emotional language are influenced by biological or genetic factors, such as prematurity, syndromes, perinatal a...

OBJECTIVE We explored the relationships between sensory modulation and health-related quality of life (HRQOL), social supports, and mental health symptoms of anxiety and depression. METHOD Twenty-eight adult volunteers ages 18-60 participated in the study. Fourteen adults were sensory overresponsive (SOR), and 14 adults in a matched comparative group were not sensory overresponsive (NSOR). Al...

Sensory gating is a neurophysiological measure of inhibition that is characterised by a reduction in the P50 event-related potential to a repeated identical stimulus. The objective of this work was to determine the cognitive mechanisms that relate to the neurological phenomenon of auditory sensory gating. Sixty participants underwent a battery of 10 cognitive tasks, including qualitatively diff...

About 25% of the patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) suffer movement disorders, including loss of voluntary control, bradykinesia, dystonia, myoclonus, and tremor. These movement disorders are generally difficult to manage and add considerably to the disease burden. Over the last years, interesting findings have emerged that show how tissue or nerve injury may induce spinal plas...
