- Association of glymphatic system dysfunction with cognitive impairment in temporal lobe epilepsyby Jiajia Wang on November 4, 2024
CONCLUSION: These findings reveal the important role of the DTI-ALPS index and CPV in SVF performance in unilateral TLE. Decreased DTI-ALPS index and increased CPV are the independent risk factors for semantic fluency impairment. The DTI-ALPS index may fully mediate the relationship between CP enlargement and SVF performance. These insights provide a radiological foundation for further investigations into the mechanism of the glymphatic system in TLE pathophysiology.
- Functional correlates of executive dysfunction in primary progressive aphasia: a systematic reviewby Kristin Thomsen on November 4, 2024
CONCLUSION: Our study provides indirect support for the assumption regarding the significance of the frontal regions and inferior frontal junction in executive control and demonstrates that neurophysiological tools can be a useful aid to further investigate clinical-neurophysiological correlations in PPA.
- Non-invasive Gamma Brain Wave Optimization (BWO-G) for Cognitive and Emotional Recovery in an Adolescent: A Case Study on Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer (REAC) Neuro Psycho Physical Optimization (NPPO) BWO-G Treatmentby Valeria Modesto' on November 4, 2024
This case report describes the application of the radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) gamma brain wave optimization (BWO-G) treatment in a 16-year-old female patient with a history of emotional trauma, depressive symptoms, and gender dysphoria. The patient underwent 18 sessions of REAC Neuro Psycho Physical Optimization (NPPO) BWO-G, with quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) conducted pre- and post-treatment. Initial QEEG analyses indicated altered brain wave activity, with peaks in...
- Examining problem gambling, substance use disorders and cluster B personality traits among incarcerated individualsby Kalle Lind on November 4, 2024
Prison populations face heightened rates of addictive behaviors and significant stressors, including health challenges and social disparities. Although problem gambling is prevalent in criminal justice settings, its distinctiveness compared to other addictions among incarcerated individuals remains uncertain. This study examines risk factors associated with problem gambling in Finnish prisoners and explores differences compared to other forms of addiction. Covariates from a questionnaire (N =...
