  2. 1. Rolandic Epilepsy : A Neuroradiological, Neuropsychological and Oromotor Study

    Author : Staffan Lundberg; Orvar Eeg-Olofsson; Raili Raininko; Ulrich Stephani; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pediatrics; rolandic epilepsy; children; idiopathic focal epilepsy; magnetic resonance imaging; proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy; cognition; neuropsychology; oromotor performance; dichotic listening; hippocampus; classification; Pediatrik; Paediatric medicine; Pediatrisk medicin;

    Abstract : Rolandic epilepsy (RE) is the most common focal epilepsy syndrome in the pediatric age group with an onset between 3 and 13 years. The syndrome is defined by electro-clinically typical features and has been considered benign according to seizure remission before the age of 16 years. READ MORE

  4. 2. Neurodegenerative Biomarkers in Healthy Elderly - with special reference to the preclinical pattern of biological and cognitive markers for Alzheimer’s disease

    Author : Erik Stomrud; Klinisk minnesforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cerebral blood flow; EEG; phosphorylated tau protein; amyloid beta protein; tau protein; cerebrospinal fluid; biomarkers; preclinical Alzheimer s disease; Alzheimer s disease; MCI; dementia; SPECT; memory; cognition; early diagnosis; control groups;

    Abstract : Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tau and amyloid brain pathology. With the gradual degeneration of neurons, cognitive symptoms will arise and the affected individual will eventually develop AD dementia. READ MORE

  5. 3. Validating User Engagement and Effectiveness of Training Simulations : A mixed-methods approach informed by embodied cognition and psychophysiological measures

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; training simulators; simulation validation; psychological fidelity; psychophysiological measures; embodied cognition; electroencephalography EEG ; galvanic skin response GSR ; träningssimulatorer; validering av simuleringar; psykologisk realism; psyko-fysiologiska mått; kroppslig kognition; elektroencefalografi EEG ; galvanisk hudrespons GSR ; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Simulation-based training has gained widespread attention recently as a response to drawbacks associated with traditional training approaches, such as high training costs (instructors, equipment, etc.), high risks (e.g. pilot training), and ethical issues (e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Speech and language dysfunction in childhood epilepsy and epileptiform EEG activity

    Author : Gunilla Rejnö-Habte Selassie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : auditory ability; cognition; co-morbidity; epilepsy; epileptiform activity; follow-up; Landau Kleffner syndrome; language disorder; neurodevelopmental dysfunction; speech disorder;

    Abstract : In severe childhood language disorder, concomitant dysfunction in other areas may be present. There are indications that epileptiform EEG activity and epilepsy may influence speech and language development, but this relationship is poorly understood. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cerebral Blood Flow and Cognition. Clinical studies on Dementia and Cognitive Decline

    Author : Arkadiusz Siennicki-Lantz; Geriatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gerontology; Gerontologi; vascular risk factors; carotid ultrasound; peripheral arterial disease; orthostatic hypotension; blood pressure; ageing; SPECT; cerebral blood flow; cognition; Dementia; Alzheimer’s disease;

    Abstract : The importance of early detection of brain changes during ageing has been recognised. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a method used for estimation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in clinical work and in research. READ MORE
