Filter by:Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a very common neurodevelopmental disorder in childhood characterized by short attention span, impulsivity and hyperactivity. It is also known that sensory integration problems are seen together with the basic symptoms of ADHD. Studies indicate that children with ADHD have difficulties in perceiving and processing sensory stimuli, and in relation to this, they have difficulty in producing appropriate sensory responses at school, at home and in social environments. However, it was observed that the interventions related to ADHD did not focus on the sensory-motor dimension enough, and focused more on cognitive or social skills. Although current research indicates the presence of sensory integration disorder in children with ADHD, there are no studies showing the effectiveness of sensory integration intervention. Our study was planned to examine the effect of Ayres Sensory Integration intervention on sensory-motor, cognitive, behavioral skills and social participation in children with ADHD. Materials and Methods: After the evaluation, 90 children with ADHD will be included in the study by dividing them into intervention (n=45) and control (n=45) groups by simple randomization method. Ayres Sensory Integration Therapy intervention will be applied to the intervention group for 10 weeks, 3 times a week, with a session duration of 1 hour, while the control group will continue the drug treatment and after a waiting period of 10 weeks, Ayres Sensory Integration Therapy will be applied after the second evaluation. Participants, Sensory Profile (SP), Sensory Integration and Praxis Test (SIPT), Emotion Regulation Checklist (ERC), Stroop Test TBAG Form (Stroop TBAG), Childhood Executive Functions Inventory (CHEXI), Participation and Environment Scale for Children and Adolescents (PEM-CY), Conners Teacher Rating Scale (CTRS), Conners Parent Rating Scale (CPRS), Bruininks-Oseretsky Motor Proficiency Test-2 (BOT-2) and Goal Achievement Scale (GAS) both before and before intervention. and post-group change as well as between-group differences will be evaluated.
This study aims to obtain the characteristics of cognitive impairment and imaging characteristics of patients with Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) through comprehensive and standardized neuropsychological assessment and multimodal imaging examination. The focus is to obtain the characteristics of cognitive impairment and imaging characteristics of patients with CSVD through 3.0T MRI SWI sequence. deep medullary veins (DMVs) were measured. To compare the demographic data, hematological indexes, imaging scores and the number of DMVs between CSVD groups with and without cognitive impairment, and to explore the correlation between deep medullary veins and cognitive dysfunction in cerebral small vessel disease.
The overall objective of this project is to characterize the spatiotemporal dynamics of brain oscillations underpinning autobiographical memory (ABM) and the modulation of the memory network using non-invasive brain stimulation.
The Clinical Trial will systematically examine the feasibility of remote, caregiver-led tACS for older adults with memory deficits and evaluate whether repeated tACS leads to sustained improvement of neuronal activity and memory functions.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a personalized, web-based training intervention that was developed to teach use of an Electronic Memory and Management Aid (EMMA) application. The app-based system is designed to support everyday memory, daily activity management and positive health behavior engagement for older adults with subjective cognitive complaints or mild cognitive impairment. The investigators will also evaluate the degree to which a clinician is needed to oversee the uptake and utilization of the EMMA app during the web-based training intervention.
The investigators have developed music-based cognitive training sessions derived from Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) techniques. The music-based cognitive training sessions will address areas of attention and executive function, which appear to progress over time and worsen as an individual experiences more episodes of depression. The aim of this pilot is to test 8-weeks of music-based cognitive training to improve cognitive function among adults with major depressive disorder.
Background: Deafness is one of the nine potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia simulated by the Lancet dementia Prevention, intervention and Care Committee in 2017. Some studies have found that the risk factors of dementia in deafness system, with the increase of the degree of deafness, the risk of cognitive decline increases, while after long-term wear of hearing aids, the deterioration of immediate and delayed memory is less, and the possibility of cognitive decline slows down. Therefore, it is necessary for us to improve the auditory ability of patients with deafness through auditory intervention, so as to slow down its effect on dementia and reduce the incidence of dementia. At present, auditory intervention methods include hearing aid wearing and cochlear implant. However, there are few studies on cognitive function of presbycusis patients in China, and there is no research on how many years of auditory intervention can effectively slow down the incidence of dementia in presbycusis patients with MCI. Therefore, we intend to conduct a prospective cohort study on the changes of cognitive function of presbycusis under hearing aid intervention.
To evaluate the effect of 16-weeks consumption of Mitocholine on Executive Function and Homocysteine levels in a population experiencing Mild Cognitive Impairment. The study will also include measures of memory, language, S-adenosylmethionone (SAM), Betaine, Choline.
Post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV2 (PASC), colloquially known as "long-COVID," is thought to affect between 10-30% of all COVID-19 survivors. Patients with PASC also report worsening behavioral health symptoms over time that include new-onset depression, anxiety, and even suicidal behavior. The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, controlled trial is to test the efficacy of a glutamate modulator among PASC patients suffering from new-onset or worsening of depressive symptoms.
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out if a 9 week group therapy using video from home will help veterans with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). The main questions it aims to answer are: - is the video therapy user-friendly for veterans? - does it improve veterans well-being and quality-of-life? Veterans will be asked to attend nine 1 hour small group video sessions and will complete questionnaires before and after the sessions. Researchers will compare the group of veterans that starts the video sessions right away with a group that waits before starting the video sessions.
