Objectives: Emotional and behavioral problems (EBP) during adolescence are a major public health issue due to its high prevalence and long-lasting consequences. The knowledge of the barriers in providing psychosocial care can be a starting point for subsequent efficiency improvement. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess which barriers do care providers experience while providing psychosocial care for adolescents with EBP.

Deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus interna (GPi-DBS) effectively treats dystonia, but response variability necessitates a reliable biomarker. Intermuscular coherence (4-12 Hz) has been linked to abnormal activity in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical (CBGTC) loop and may serve as an objective measure of dystonia and GPi-DBS effectiveness.

This process occurs once all the kinetochores of sister chromatids are attached to microtubules emanating from the opposite poles of the mitotic spindle. To control the precision of this mechanism, the Chromosome Passenger Complex (CPC) actively identifies and corrects improper microtubule attachments.
