An experiment is reported that attempts to distinguish between anxious and depressive future thinking in terms of anticipation positive negative experiences. Anxious, mixed (anxious-depressed), control participants were given an adapted verbal fluency paradigm examine the ease with which they could think personal Anxious differed from controls only anticipating more experiences; showed both greater experiences reduced Self-report measures hopelessness worry followed a similar pattern...
Abstract Subjects were required to detect either an angry or a happy target face in stimulus array of 12 photographs. It was found with neutral distractor faces that those high trait anxiety detected faster than did low trait-anxious subjects, but the two groups not differ their speed detection targets. In addition, subjects slower when angry. Comparable findings obtained whether there anxious mood induction. concluded individuals have facilitated and processing environmental threat relative...
Background: Many of today's young adults with Down syndrome never had the opportunity to learn read. However, an increasing number children are currently attending mainstream schools and being taught As a consequence, it is now possible systematically study reading development in syndrome. Aims: The aim this was chart reading, language, memory skills investigate relationships between these abilities. Sample: Twenty‐four aged 4 12 were followed over two years compared 31 matched for age, 42...
A previously healthy male toddler presented to hospital with fever, neck pain, torticollis and dysphonia, preceded by 4 days of vomiting, diarrhoea lethargy. He tested positive for adenovirus rhinoenterovirus on a nasopharyngeal aspirate PCR. had negative blood culture lumbar
Background: Adult cancer survivors often experience substantial psychological morbidity following the completion of acute treatment. Unfortunately, current interventions are limited efficacy. This study explored if metacognitive therapy (MCT); a brief transdiagnostic intervention was potentially efficacious and could be delivered effectively to adult with morbidity. Method: An open trial 3- 6-months follow-up evaluated treatment effects MCT in 27 consecutively referred individuals clinical...
This paper presents the first phase of a longitudinal study following 24 children with Down syndrome who are receiving their education in mainstream primary schools. The literacy, numeracy, language and memory skills were compared to 2 groups selected from classmates. comparison group typically developing average readers classes matched for reading age. baseline data revealed that had uneven cognitive profiles relatively advanced other skills. ordinary on ability, attained significantly...
Increasingly, children with Down syndrome are receiving their education in mainstream schools but little research has investigated whether these placements may influence language and memory development. The present study compared 22 school matched for chronological age attending special a different LEA where were rare. assessed to obtain measures of the following abilities: receptive vocabulary; grammar comprehension; sentence repetition; digit span; face recognition; hand movements....
Abstract Normals high, medium, and low in trait anxiety performed two encoding tasks (one predominantly data-driven the other conceptually driven) on threat-related neutral words, followed by tests of word completion, cued recall, free recall. Memory performance indicated existence negative memory biases high trait-anxious group, but it was generally not possible to decide whether were associated with rather than depression. The obtained mainly when there a match between processes at those...
BackgroundMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scoring systems are used in the neonatal period to predict outcome infants with encephalopathy. Our aim was assess relationship between three MRI scores and neurodevelopmental assessed using Bayley Scales of Infant Toddler Development, third edition (Bayley-III), at two years encephalopathy.MethodsTerm-born neonates evidence perinatal asphyxia born 2011 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. scanning performed within first weeks life scored Barkovich,...
The characteristic imaging finding common to Joubert syndrome and related disorders is the 'molar tooth' sign. prenatal diagnosis of using both ultrasound fetal magnetic resonance (MRI) in families with an affected child has been reported previously. We report two cases which molar tooth sign was identified by sonography at 26 + 4 weeks 20 6 weeks, respectively, prior MRI or genetic testing. In subsequently confirmed on MRI. As definitive testing may not be conclusive syndrome, ability...
Object The natural history of syringomyelia in pediatric patients remains uncertain. Although symptomatic and operative cases are well studied, there fewer articles the literature on nonoperative syrinx its clinical radiological course. purpose this research was to analyze untreated presenting with minimal neurological symptoms. Methods A review neurosurgery database at British Columbia's Children's Hospital identified all (< 18 years age) syringes MR imaging. Patients were included study...
Many adult cancer survivors experience persistent emotional distress after completing treatment. The aim of this study was to test the potential a brief transdiagnostic psychological intervention—metacognitive therapy (MCT)—in reducing in survivors. A non-concurrent multiple baseline design with 3- and 6-months follow-up used evaluate effects MCT four patients consecutively referred psycho-oncology service. Each patient received six 1-h sessions MCT. Anxiety, depression, worry/rumination,...

Object Microfibrillar collagen hemostat (MCH; trade name Avitene) is a partially water-insoluble acid salt of purified bovine corium collagen. This agent has been widely used to control hemorrhage at surgery, and especially during pediatric neurosurgeries the authors' institution. Despite its effectiveness, rare case reports detailing adverse inflammatory reactions MCH have documented. Based primarily on MR imaging, postoperative most commonly elicited clinical differential diagnoses tumor...
