Randomised controlled clinical trial of a structured cognitive rehabilitation in patients with attention deficit following mild traumatic brain injury: Study protocol
(2019)Objectives To measure the clinical, structural and functional changes of an individualised structured cognitive rehabilitation in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) population. Setting A single centre study, Malaysia. ... -
Regional brain correlates of beta bursts in health and psychosis: A concurrent electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging study
(2020)BACKGROUNDThere is emerging evidence for abnormal beta oscillations in psychosis. Beta oscillations are likely to play a key role in the coordination of sensorimotor information that is crucial to healthy mental function. ... -
Reliability of single and paired pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation parameters across eight testing sessions
(2018)Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a popular method for measuring motor cortical excitability in healthy and clinical populations, and is often used as an outcome measure to explore changes following an intervention. ... -
Self-help CBT-I in the management of insomnia symptoms associated with chronic disease in older adults: A randomized controlled trial
(2010)Objectives: The increasing prevalence of insomnia symptoms with age is closely associated with levels of chronic disease, presenting a challenge for sleep management. Manualised self-help CBT-I has been reported to be ... -
Self-help treatment for insomnia symptoms associated with chronic conditions in older adults: A randomized controlled trial
(2012)Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of a self-help cognitive behavioral intervention in improving sleep quality in older adults reporting insomnia symptoms associated with chronic disease. Design A pragmatic two-arm ... -
Should we recommend hip surveillance radiographs in children with bilateral cerebral palsy earlier than current local guidance of 30 months?
(2015)Objectives: Current local guidance for hip surveillance in children with bilateral cerebral palsy (CP) recommends routine radiograph of the pelvis at age 30 months (earlier if clinical concern e.g. not sitting by 18 months, ... -
Sleep studies of adults with severe or profound mental retardation and epilepsy
(1998)Sleep patterns of people with mental retardation have received little research attention. This is an important gap in knowledge because understanding the relation between sleep and wakefulness may be critical to care ... -

The effectiveness of powered, active lower limb exoskeletons in neurorehabilitation: A systematic review
(2015)OBJECTIVE: This review examines the utility of current active, powered, wearable lower limb exoskeletons as aids to rehabilitation in paraplegic patients with gait disorders resulting from central nervous system ... -
The role of right inferior frontal gyrus in impulsivity: Insights from high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
(2017)It has been argued that right inferior frontal gyrus (rIFG) play a crucial role in impulsivity, particularly the response inhibition subdomain, through the findings from studies of low-frequency repetitive transcranial ... -
An update on blood-based biomarkers for non-Alzheimer neurodegenerative disorders
(2020)Cerebrospinal fluid analyses and neuroimaging can identify the underlying pathophysiology at the earliest stage of some neurodegenerative disorders, but do not have the scalability needed for population screening. Therefore, ... -
Volume changes after traumatic spinal cord injury in animal studies-a systematic review
(2019)There are limited data on the lesion volume changes following spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, a meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the volume size changes of the injured spinal cord over time among animal ... -
Wearable technology in epilepsy: The views of patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals
