Filter by:The aim of our study to compare the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy and motor learning techniques in adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. and help the adults to address and revise cognitive distortions and habits affecting your productivity and emotional mindset.participant allocated to control group will be asked to perform cognitive behavioural therapy and participants allocated to experimental group will be asked to perform motor learning activities and cognitive behavioral therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy of guanfacine immediate release (GIR) for the treatment of hyperactivity/impulsivity and inattention in children 6-12 years of age with Down syndrome (DS) after 8 weeks of treatment.
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an intervention involving parental training in behaviour management and medication in children with both Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity (ADHD). ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects around 5% of school-age children and adolescents, while T1D is a chronic disease requiring strict management. After initial parental training provided for parents/legal guardians, the children will be randomized to one of two cross-over groups, and treated with either lisdexamfetamine or methylphenidate first. After dose optimization for first 5-7 weeks, patients will be treated for 6 months total, after which they will be switched to the other drug. Researchers will then compare the ADHD symptom severity as measured by Conners 3 questionnaire, and compare the frequency of any adverse events associated with the therapy. As secondary outcomes, patient's T1D control and quality of life will be compared between the two drugs.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children. Children with ADHD have difficulties with co-contraction, producing muscle force, and regulating movement velocity, and physical fitness. The purpose of this study was to compare the gross and fine motor abilities in children with ADHD and children with typical development.
Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity is associated with deficits in cognition and sleep. In healthy adults, memory consolidation processes are related to sleep spindle activity in the sleep electroencephalogram. This association is poorly characterized in adults with attention deficit hyperactivity. In this study, the purpose is to characterize sleep microarchitecture disorders through the analysis of different stage of sleep EEG activity during a polysomnographic examination in adult with mixed Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity presentation compared to healthy.
The study targets children with diagnosed ADHD and aims to (1) develop a social virtual reality based (SocVR) intervention and (2) investigate its effects on improving the social skills and executive functioning of inhibitions, emotional control and attention of the children compared to traditional social skills training. The study will be a three-arm parallel randomised controlled trial comparing the effects of a SocVR with traditional social skills training on social skills and executive functioning of children with ADHD. The study period is 2 months, including 4 weeks (2 sessions per week) of intervention and control, followed by a 4-week follow-up. The participants will be assessed at three time points (i.e. at baseline, 4 weeks and 4 weeks follow-up). The guidelines of Whitehead et al. (2016) suggested that recommended that at least 16 subjects per group for medium effect size in pilot RCT and 15% attrition over time can be expected. Thus, the minimum sample size per group was 20. A total of 60 participants will be recruited in which 20 participants in the social VR group, 20 in the traditional social skills group and 20 in the waitlist control group.
Under traditional rehabilitation programs, investigate the additional effects of individualized fairytales on preschool children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder with developmental delays.
Neck pain-associated disorders (NAD) and whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) are major health problems. NAD has a lifetime prevalence of 54%. Although the majority of patients recovers within the first three months, a minority develops persistent pain. WAD, in contrast, is reported less frequently, but patients are often suffering more badly. Patients with chronic symptoms represent a considerable burden in terms of pain, suffering, health care needs, and social costs. Findings on the natural course of NAD and WAD reflect the necessity to identify factors besides pain related to the persistence of symptoms. First, alterations of input and processing of multiple sensory modalities causing movement control impairment can result in persistent symptoms and affect the quality of life. Besides, findings of psychosocial factors predictive of pain outcomes support the growing body of research proposing a bidirectional relationship between somatic and psychosocial variables. In particular, there is a pressing need to investigate pain-related activity patterns, besides fear-avoidance behavior in NAD and WAD. Maladaptive activity pattern have an impact on on pain and disability in the long-term prognosis. Mt important, given the high prevalence of NAD and WAD, the cortical representation of the cervical spine has not yet been investigated and, reports on neuroplasticity remain scarce. These shortcomings should be addressed to provide evidence for the temporal aspect of neuroplasticity and its involvement in pain persistence. Hypotheses: We hypothesize I. that impaired sensorimotor abilities, mental health at baseline increase pain intensity and disability during measurement. II. that maladaptive pain-related activity patterns avoidance and overactivity at baseline are prognostic factors for pain persistence and disability. III. that the WAD cohort shows more depression, anxiety and stress compared to the NAD cohort.
