Filter by:Recent studies have shown that the aperiodic part of the signal (neuronal avalanches) of electroencephalography (EEG) contains important information about the dynamics of neuronal networks. Indeed, this has helped to identify functionally altered areas in patients with temporal epilepsy by simply using the resting EEG signal. Furthermore, it has been seen that the propagation of neuronal avalanches (VNs) correlates with the morphological organization of the cerebral cortex. Therefore, NAs represent a measure with direct utility for studying functional reorganization pre and post drug/surgical treatment. In addition, the aperiodic portion of the signal may represent a noninvasive measure of the excitation/inhibition relationship, which is known of being altered both in epilepsy and in some rare neurodevelopmental syndromes (example: Angelman and Dup15q)
The goal of this observational cross-sectional study is to establish the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder in children and adolescents with Angelman syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: - which clinical variables differentiate AS patients with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder between genetics, epilepsy, pharmacotherapy, behavioural problems, parenting style and parents' perceived stress. - which clinical variables differentiate parenting styles and levels of perceived stress. Data from neuropsychological, speech therapy and physiotherapeutic assessments are collected during regular clinical follow-ups, regarding: cognitive development ("Bayely Scales of Infant Development-III", Cognitive Scale) and adaptive behaviour; Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorder ("Autism Diagnostic Observational Schedule-2"); parental stress and parenting styles; social-communicative skills; motor development.
This study is a 4-year natural history study for patients with Angelman syndrome in Belgium (a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder, affecting 500,000 individuals in the world). It includes a 1-year recruitment phase, a 2-year follow-up and a year to analyze the collected data. The investigators plan to include 10 patients with a semi-annual follow-up for 2 years. The investigators will collect relevant retrospective and prospective data using age-standardized scales and questionnaires for functional motor assessments and global developmental assessment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an adapted, telehealth functional behavioral therapy (FBTsIDD) specifically focused on promoting appropriate communication and behavioral strategies in individuals with syndromic intellectual and developmental disorders. Participants will be asked to complete virtual study assessments at intake and then on a monthly basis for the duration of 3-6 months. In addition, participants will attend weekly or biweekly virtual intervention visits with a study therapist.
The goal of this study is to conduct a prospective, longitudinal study to observe the natural clinical progression and disease outcome of AS patients receiving no disease-modified intervention, with the purpose of obtaining data that will be useful for future clinical trials.
The goal of this observational study is to describe the natural history of imprinting disorders (IDs) according to their metabolic profile in all patients (adults and children) affected with an ID regardless of the severity of the disease, with a molecular characterization, with a signed informed consent for all subjects, followed in one partner's center. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can we identify common metabolic profiles for all imprinted diseases? - Which imprinting disorders have an impact on the metabolic profiles of IDs? - Which are the metabolic risks associated to IDs? - Can we use the metabolic profiles for the clinical classification and prognosis of IDs? - Are there common therapeutic approaches for all IDs?
The overall purpose of this project is to establish the capability of screening for Angelman syndrome (AS) and Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) in public health newborn screening (NBS) programs, with an aim of developing and validating a screening test for AS and PWS.
This is a longitudinal, observational, nonrandomized, fully remote study enrolling approximately 55 participant-caregiver dyads. The study includes no treatments or interventions, and participants will not be asked to change their current treatments. The objective of this study is to gather sufficient source material videos to develop a scoring system for ASVA and to perform preliminary validation of that scoring system.
This is a two-part, Phase IIa, multicenter, 12-week, open-label study. Up to 56 participants with deletion Angelman Syndrome (AS) aged 5-17 years (inclusive) will be enrolled in the study.
The Global Angelman Syndrome Registry is an online patient organisation driven registry to collect information about the natural history of children and adults with Angelman Syndrome. The registry will facilitate 1) recruitment for clinical trials into therapies and interventions to benefit participants with Angelman Syndrome and their families, and 2) advancement of research and best standards of care for Angelman Syndrome. The registry is currently available in English, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Italian, Polish, Hindi, and Brazilian Portuguese.
