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
In this study, a birth cohort was established to demonstrate the causal relationship between allergies and neurodevelopment disorders in infants and young children, and to find out the influencing factors of neurodevelopment disorders in early life.
This new family intervention, called Dialogical Family Guidance (DFG) is developed to target family needs especially in families with a child with neurodevelopmental disorders. PhD study showed, that this intervention is functioning with this target group. Participants (families) experienced that they got information, guidance to ordinary life and that the DFG-therapists were listening to them and above all, helping with individual problems and questions. DFG include six meetings and professionals need to attend on a 3-day long education before using this intervention.
The goal of this pilot feasibility study is to test a co-adapted community-based group programme ("Encompass") with parents/carers of children with complex neurodisability under 5 years of age in East London in the UK. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is it feasible and acceptable to carry out this newly co-adapted programme with two groups of parents/carers of children with complex neurodisability under the age of 5? - Is it feasible to carry out an evaluation of the above programme, which could then inform a protocol for larger scale evaluation? The main activities for the parent/carer participants will include: - Attending ten "Encompass" parent/carer groups - Filling in questionnaires at the start and end of the groups - Attending an interview with the researcher to discuss their experiences The groups will be facilitated by a healthcare professional and a parent with lived experience. They will also be interviewed about their experiences after the groups have been completed.
The goal of this clinical trial is to implement a structured psychosocial intervention program with digital support (randomized and with a control group) that will be conducted virtually and synchronously to families of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and families of children with Attention Deficit with hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Will the program impact on different variables in the parents' domain (parental stress variables, quality of life/social support and coping skills), 2. Will the program impact on different variables in the children's domain (daily life functioning, social behavioral variables, and executive functioning). 3. Treatment outcomes will be assessed at pre-test, post-test, and 6-month follow-up assessment across intervention and control groups using a battery of measures of parenting stress, coping skills, social support, and children's dysfunctional outcomes Parents and teachers will complete different questionnaires to see if there are improvements on parent's and children outcomes. Researchers will compare intervention group and control group to see if there are improvements on parent's domains (parenting stress, coping skills, social support) and children's dysfunctional outcomes (daily life functioning, social behavioral variables, and executive functioning).
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
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and food effect of IAMA-6 administered orally to healthy adults.
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.
This is a prospective, randomised controlled trial that evaluates whether transcranial pulsed current stimulation increased total sleep time in children with neuroevelopmental disorder, compared to Melatonin
The study will be conducted to examine the effects of abnormal growth pattern and cerebrovascular blood flow measurements on fetal frontal lobe development with the advancing ultrasound technology. Antenatal assessment of frontal lobe development will enable clinicians to predict neurodevelopmental problems that may develop postnatally. In addition, this study will examine the effects of FGR on frontal lobe development.
