Filter by:to bridge the gap between the molecular structure of CNV and the effect on the phenotype, considering NDDs as complex diseases, as they are a consequence of the imbalance in several dosage-sensitive genes, we might try to approach them through different --omics investigations (genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics) according to the emerging field of network medicine. This holistic can provide valuable insight into understanding peculiar molecular mechanisms and unsuspected molecular interactions that contribute to the pathogenesis of the condition and possibly pave the way for uncovering new drug strategies that even if they do not heal the patient may improve his performance and the social interaction
The goal of this observational study is to confirm the impact of using this app adapted to be more specific for screening for 5 neurodevelopmental disorders and to evaluate the mothers' support program on the incidence of postpartum depression in of young parents with a minimum of 1 child under 10 years of age at the time of inclusion and using Malo on a regular basis. The main questions it aims to answer are : - the median age of possible neurodevelopmental disorders notification of infants - the median time of the mothers' postnatal depression notifications after childbirth subsequently to the support and prevention program Participants will agree with use of their data
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an excellent method for diagnosis and staging of brain disease. However, lengthy scan times and sensitivity to patient motion limit its efficacy. To address this, a novel method has recently been demonstrated, called MR Fingerprinting (MRF). The investigators' improved implementation of MRF, featuring fully-quantitative data and a reduced sensitivity to patient motion, can be used to acquire an anatomical exam in less than five minutes at a standard resolution. The potential for wide applicability of this technique, combined with an implied reduction in complexity and cost of MRI exams, has generated wide interest. However, published studies have been limited to demonstrations in healthy volunteers, and the effectiveness of MRF in the clinical practice has not yet been proven. Here, the investigators aim to assess the efficacy of MRF in performing diagnostic exams avoiding sedation in children and for increasing diagnosis rates in challenging adult patients.
The study included boys and girls with neurodevelopmental disorders between the ages of 3 and 16 years, belonging to two educational centers in Madrid, attended by children with this type of disorder. Both centers have similar characteristics in terms of the type of feeding and management of the children attending them. The study will be randomized, so that probiotics will be administered to some children and placebos to others; and blinded, so that neither the patient nor his family will know whether probiotic or placebo is administered. The aim of this project is to study the results obtained on microbiota, intestinal permeability, language, behavior and learning of a probiotic combination that will be administered to children in several educational centers that care for children with neurodevelopmental disorders for 5 months.
In 2016, the US Food and Drug Administration raised concerns about the potential negative effects of anesthesia exposure on neurodevelopment in children during pregnancy or before the age of three. The impact of exposure to anesthetic agents on neurodevelopmental outcome however remains debated: clinical studies on the subject do not allow for unequivocal conclusions to be drawn, given their methodological heterogeneity and the numerous confounding environmental factors. To this date, only two studies have focused on the potential neurodevelopmental effects of general anesthesia during the prenatal period, even though general anesthesia for non-obstetric surgery during pregnancy affects up to 3% of pregnant women. This observational ambidirectional study would be the first to investigate the potential neurodevelopmental effects of prenatal exposure to anesthesia, whether general or regional, for surgery during pregnancy. It would thus differentiate between the contribution of surgical stress and that of anesthetic agents in any observed modifications. The aim of the study is: Are there any subtle modifications of executive functions associated with prenatal exposure to anesthesia during non-obstetric surgery during pregnancy? To investigate this, parents of the participating children will be asked to complete a standardized parental telephone questionnaire from the "Behaviour Rating Inventory of Executive Function" (BRIEF). This parental questionnaire allows for evaluating children's behaviors related to executive functions. Researchers will compare the score derived from the "BRIEF" parental questionnaire (BRIEF score) between three groups of children aged from 5 to 12 years old, born between 2011 and 2018 at Caen University Hospital: - The " General anesthesia " group: children whose mothers underwent general anesthesia for non-obstetric surgery during pregnancy (N: 62). - The " Locoregional anesthesia " group: children whose mothers underwent regional anesthesia for non-obstetric surgery during pregnancy (N: 31). - The " Control " group: children whose mothers did not undergo any surgical intervention during pregnancy (N: 62). The first aim of our study is to investigate the presence of a significant difference in the BRIEF score between the three groups. The seconds aims are to assess the cognitive functioning of patients in their daily lives (school, parental home, and extracurricular activities).
1. Describe the prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders among youth with criminal behaviors 2. Explore the relationship between specific neurodevelopmental disorders and the rates and types of crime 3. Examine the roles of psychiatric comorbidities and sociodemographic factors in juvenile criminality
Although the scales used so far provide information about the neuromotor progression of a single baby, it is thought that they are not sufficient to distinguish babies from each other, and it is thought that there is no assessment battery that will adapt to the knowledge in their conditions and the functional development of babies. Therefore, the aim of our study is to reveal the applicability and psychometric properties of the Neonatal Infant Motor Assessment Scale (NIMAS) test, which reveals the neurological and motor performance of infants hospitalized in the NICU, both as automatic responses and functional behavior.
The aim of our study is to examine the effects of the physiotherapy program applied in the NICU on motor performance, behavior, transition time to full enteral feeding, and feeding performance in preterm infants.
The goal of this clinical trial is to gain importance of sleep routine and environment in mothers have children with neurodevelopmental disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the importance of sleep routine and environment in children with neurodevelopmental disorders? - What kind of an effect does the awareness that mothers gain through sleep trainings have? Participants will: - Evaluations will be applied to all participants - Divided into intervention and control groups - The intervention group will be given "Sleep Training" and followed up for about 1 month. - The results between the two groups will be compared Researchers will compare intervention and control groups to see if turning a healthy sleep routine into a life habit
This study will investigate the effect of physical activity on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in individuals with ASD of different age groups through measuring the hemodynamic, heart activity and respiratory system parameters.
