Neurofeedback (NFB) is an operant conditioning procedure, by which the subject learns to control his/her EEG activity. On one hand, Learning Disabled (LD) children have higher values of theta absolute and relative power than normal children, on other it has been shown that minimum alpha necessary for adequate performance. Ten LD were selected with ratios (theta/alpha). The Test Of Variables Attention (TOVA) was applied. Children divided into two groups in order maintain similar IQ values,...
This report is a 2-year follow-up to previous study describing positive behavioral changes and spurt of EEG maturation with theta/alpha neurofeedback (NFB) training in group Learning Disabled (LD) children. In control paired group, treated placebo, were not observed the smaller maturational easily explained by increased age. Two years later, lag Control Group children increased, reaching abnormally high theta Relative Power values; absence continued neurological diagnosis remained LD....
EEGs from 16 patients with stroke in three different stages of evolution were recorded. EEG sources calculated every 0.39 Hz by frequency domain VARETA. The main source was within the delta band 2 out 4 chronic patients, and 67% acute or subacute when edema (cytotoxic vasogenic) present. Moreover, all showed abnormal activity theta band. Sources cortical corticosubcortical infarcts located cortex, surrounding lesion. At site infarct, a decrease power observed. coincided and/or ischemic penumbra.
The sources of different EEG frequencies were studied in 25 normal children and 46 learning disabled (not otherwise specified) between 7 11 years old. computed using Frequency-domain Variable Resolution Electromagnetic Tomography which produces a three dimensional picture the currents at each frequency. Significant differences groups observed. LD showed more theta activity (3.5 to 7.02 Hz) frontal lobes control alpha (9.75 12.87 occipital areas. These results may support maturational lag...
Approximately 2–4 % of newborns with perinatal risk factors present hearing loss. The aim this study was to analyse the auditory function in infants brain injury (PBI). Brainstem evoked potentials (BAEPs), steady state responses (ASSRs), and tympanometry studies were carried out 294 PBI (586 ears, two had unilateral microtia-atresia). BAEPs abnormal 158 (27%) ASSRs 227 (39%), anomalies 131 (22%) ears. When ASSR thresholds compared BAEPs, assessment yielded 92% sensitivity 68% specificity....
Dark chocolate is rich in flavonoids that can have effects on body composition and cognitive performance. The aim of this study was to analyze the acute subchronic intake electrical brain oscillations. A with 20 healthy subjects (mean age 24.15 years) a control group five 23.2 carried out. In effect study, subjects' dark (103.72 mg/kg weight) low calories as fasting. group, only low-calorie milk. For effect, daily dose given for eight days. baseline electroencephalogram (EEG) recorded before...

The rate of premature births has increased in the past 2 decades. Ten percent birth survivors develop motor impairment, but almost half exhibit later sensorial, cognitive, and emotional disabilities attributed to white matter injury decreased volume neuronal structures. aim this study was test hypothesis that full-term infants differ their development face processing. A comparative longitudinal conducted at 4 8 months age. absolute power electroencephalogram analyzed both groups during 5...
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder appearing in childhood but remaining many cases adults. There are both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to treating ADHD, they do not have the same efficacy all subjects. Better knowledge of neurophysiological basis this will allow for design more effective treatments. Studies performing qEEG analysis children suggest existence subgroups patients with different traits. fewer studies adults, who might undergone plastic changes allowing...
Hazardous alcohol consumption (HAC) is a pattern of use that may result in harm for the user and/or those around them. Prior research has suggested HAC and dependence share some neurophysiological features but differ others.To determine whether presented different correlates.Two hundred subjects were screened or dependence. A quantitative electroencephalo-graphic analysis delta, theta, alpha beta absolute power, relative power mean frequency with not dependence, risk controls was...
Background Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL) affects white matter, but grey matter injuries have also been reported, particularly in the dorsomedial nucleus and cortex. Both structures related to working memory (WM) processes. The aim of this study was compare behavioral performances EEG power spectra during a visuospatial task (VSWMT) toddlers with history PVL healthy toddlers. Methodology/Principal Findings A prospective, comparative WM conducted responses narrow-band VSWMT were compared...
Background Approximately 2–4% of newborns with perinatal risk factors present hearing loss.

All were subjected OAE, ABR ASSR evaluations use. The average threshold decreased...
Hazardous alcohol consumption is a pattern of that leads to higher risk harmful consequences either for the user or others. This has been linked risky behaviors, accidents, and injuries. Individuals with hazardous do not necessarily present dependence; thus, study particular neurophysiological correlates this needs be carried out in nondependent individuals. Here, we quantitative electroencephalography analysis health sciences university students consumption, but dependence (HAC), control...
