Exploratory study of the prevalence of food addiction and its relationship with executive functioning, depression, and reinforcement sensitivity in a sample of Mexican adults.

Introduction: The study of food addiction (FA) has become relevant due to its high prevalence, the negative impact on quality of life, and its association with neuropsychological and psychiatric symptoms. Several studies have provided scientific support for these associations, however, the results are contradictory. Additionally, studies have unsuccessfully elucidated the true nature of the failures in executive functioning in people with FA symptomatology, particularly when it comes to executive deficits.

Partial Klüver-Bucy syndrome in a Paediatric patient: A post-neurosurgical and neuropsychological cases.

A variety of cognitive, behavioural, and emotional impairments have been reported in the literature that are associated with the resection of the temporal cortex. Klüver-Bucy syndrome is one infrequently reported disorder in the paediatric population. This paper describes the neuropsychological findings of a female paediatric patient at 7 and 10 years of age with a diagnosis of partial Klüver-Bucy syndrome (pKBS) following total resection of the amygdala and right hippocampus to resect a glioma.

Teleneuropsychology during the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico: the perspective from a middle-income country.

Introduction: The use of teleneuropsychology (TeleNP) increased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, there have been no studies of the benefits and difficulties with this modality in middle-income countries. This study aimed to assess the current use of TeleNP in Mexico.

Method: Mexican neuropsychologists were invited to participate in an online survey regarding the use of TeleNP during the COVID-19 pandemic.

[Formula: see text] Interventions to improve executive functions in children and adolescents with acquired brain injury: a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis.

To investigate the effectiveness of interventions aiming to improve hot and cold executive functions (EFs) in children and adolescents with acquired brain injury (ABI) and to examine whether characteristics of the intervention, participants, etiology of ABI (Traumatic-brain-injury [TBI] or non-TBI), time of assessment, or study quality moderate intervention effects. Whereas cold EFs refer to purely cognitive EFs, hot EFs refer to the affective aspects of these cognitive skills. A total of 970 participants from 23 randomized-controlled-trial studies (112 effect sizes [ES]) were included.

Neuropsychological Genotype-Phenotype in Patients with Williams Syndrome with Atypical Deletions: A Systematic Review.

Williams syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a microdeletion in the q11.23 region of chromosome 7. Recent case series reports and clinical case studies have suggested that the cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and social profile in WS could depend on the genes involved in the deletion.

A Systematic Review and a Latin American Clinical Model for Teleneuropsychological Assessment.

Objective: The objective of this study is to propose a TeleNP model for remote assessment and offer practical recommendations for clinical practice with patients in Mexico and Latin America, based on a systematic literature review and clinical experience.

Method: A systematic review of studies from 2011 to 2021 in English and Spanish used TeleNP, teleneuropsychology, telepsychology, online, assessment, teleneuropsicología, and evaluación for the search; the databases examined included PubMed, BiDi UNAM, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Wiley One Library; the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine system was used to grade the levels of evidence. The experience of the last two years of students and faculty in the Master's and Doctoral Programs in Psychology, Clinical Neuropsychology Residency Program, was also used as a basis for this guide.

Neuropsychological intervention in attention and visuospatial skills in two patients with Williams syndrome with different types of genetic deletion.

Williams Syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a distinctive physical, cognitive, and behavioral profile caused by a microdeletion in the q11.23 region of chromosome 7. The neuropsychological profile of WS is characterized by intellectual disability, hypersociability, and deficits, especially in attention and visuospatial skills.

An Exploration of Social Cognition in Children with Different Degrees of Genetic Deletion in Williams Syndrome.

An explanation for the social dysfunction observed in Williams syndrome may be deficits in social cognition. This study explored aspects of social cognition in children with Williams syndrome with different genotypes. The 12 participants included one with a 1.

Cognitive, Behavioral, and Adaptive Profiles in Williams Syndrome With and Without Loss of GTF2IRD2.

Unlabelled: Williams syndrome (WS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that results from a heterozygous microdeletion on chromosome 7q11.23. Most of the time, the affected region contains ~1.
