Torkel Klingberg,Elisabeth Fernell,Pernille J. Olesen,Mats Johnson,Per A. Gustafsson,Kerstin Dahlström,Christopher Gillberg,Hans Forssberg,Helena Westerberg +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of computerized, systematic practice of working memory tasks on children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has been investigated using a randomized, controlled, double-blind trial.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced midbrain dopamine transporter binding in male adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: association between striatal dopamine markers and motor hyperactivity.
TL;DR: The lower BP values for DAT in the midbrain suggest that dopamine signaling in subjects with ADHD is altered and might have a causal relationship to motor hyperactivity and might be considered as a potential endophenotype of ADHD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preterm Children Have Disturbances of White Matter at 11 Years of Age as Shown by Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Zoltan Nagy,Helena Westerberg,Stefan Skare,Jesper L. R. Andersson,Anders Lilja,Olof Flodmark,Elisabeth Fernell,Kirsten Holmberg,Birgitta Böhm,Hans Forssberg,Hugo Lagercrantz,Torkel Klingberg +11 more
TL;DR: Diffusion tensor imaging findings in newborn preterm children indicate that ex-preterm children with attention deficits have white matter disturbances that are not compensated for or repaired before 11 y of age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early diagnosis of autism and impact on prognosis: a narrative review.
TL;DR: There is limited evidence that any of the broadband “early intervention” programs are effective in changing the natural long-term outcome for many individuals with an early diagnosis of autism, but there is some evidence that Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI) is an effective treatment for some children with ASD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensory abnormalities in autism. A brief report.
Lars Klintwall,Anette Holm,Mats Anders Eriksson,Lotta Höglund Carlsson,Martina Barnevik Olsson,Åsa Hedvall,Christopher Gillberg,Elisabeth Fernell +7 more
TL;DR: The findings provide support for the notion that sensory abnormality is very common in young children with autism and has been proposed for inclusion among the diagnostic criteria for ASD in the upcoming DSM-V.
