Background: Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease that causes progressive cognitive, physical, and psychiatric symptoms. Computerised cognitive training (CCT) is a novel intervention that aims to improve and maintain cognitive functions through repeated practice. The effects of CCT have yet to be established in HD.

Huntington's disease (HD) causes progressive cognitive decline, with no available treatments. Computerized cognitive training (CCT) has shown efficacy in other populations, but its effects in HD are largely unknown. This pilot study will explore the effects and neural mechanisms of CCT in HD.

Article Synopsis
  • The review analyzed 180 studies on executive function (EF) delays in children with neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs), investigating whether these delays are a common feature across different NDCs.
  • Results showed a moderate effect size of EF delays in children with NDCs compared to controls, with bigger delays observed in those with multiple comorbidities and specific conditions like ADHD and autism.
  • The findings endorse the idea that EF delays are transdiagnostic, suggesting implications for understanding brain development and improving early interventions for children affected by NDCs.

Cancer-related cognitive impairment has a significant impact on the quality of life and perceived cognitive ability of breast cancer patients and frequently affects attention, working memory, and executive function. Several interventional approaches to treat these deficits have been studied, including web-based cognitive training, but methods and timing in relation to cancer treatment are heterogeneous. Only few interventions start early after primary breast cancer treatment, a time when many patients report the greatest impairments in quality of life and cognition.
