A Case Study in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: An Innovative Neurofeedback-Based Approach.

In research about attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) there is growing interest in evaluating cortical activation and using neurofeedback in interventions. This paper presents a case study using monopolar electroencephalogram recording (brain mapping known as MiniQ) for subsequent use in an intervention with neurofeedback for a 10-year-old girl presenting predominantly inattentive ADHD. A total of 75 training sessions were performed, and brain wave activity was assessed before and after the intervention.

[Expression of Hemeoxygenase-1 and clear cell renal cell carcinoma aggressiveness.].

Objective: Hemoxigenase 1 (HO-1) is an enzyme that has anti-apoptotic and proliferative effects on tumor cells. However, there is little epidemiological and clinical evidence on the role of HO-1 in urologic tumors.

Objective: To determine if there is correlation between the expression of HO-1 and the histological characteristics, evolution, Disease Free Survival (DFS) and cancer mortality in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (cRCC).

Breast cancer cutaneous metastases are associated to uMUC1 and sialyl Lewis x and to highly malignant primary tumors.

Breast cancer spreading to different organs have been related to different molecules and mechanisms, but cutaneous metastasis remains unexplored. Increasing evidence showed that MUC1 and some of its carbohydrate associated antigens may be implicated in breast cancer metastasis. In this study we analyzed these tumor markers in order to identify breast cancer cutaneous metastatic profiles.

Automatic Identification and Representation of the Cornea-Contact Lens Relationship Using AS-OCT Images.

The clinical study of the cornea-contact lens relationship is widely used in the process of adaptation of the scleral contact lens (SCL) to the ocular morphology of patients. In that sense, the measurement of the adjustment between the SCL and the cornea can be used to study the comfort or potential damage that the lens may produce in the eye. The current analysis procedure implies the manual inspection of optical coherence tomography of the anterior segment images (AS-OCT) by the clinical experts.

Differential Efficacy of Neurofeedback in Children with ADHD Presentations.

Training in neurofeedback (NF) reduces the symptomatology associated with attention deficit with hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, ADHD differs in terms of the type of presentation, i.e.
