  • Parents Guide to ADHD
    Parents Guide to ADHD Copyright 2016. Child Mind Institute Parents Guide to ADHD Children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) find it unusually difficult to concentrate on tasks, to pay attention, to sit still and to control impulsive behavior. This guide offers parents the information you need to understand the behaviors associated with the disorder and make effective decisions for your child about diagnosis and treatment. What Is ADHD? Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, is a condition that makes it unusually difficult for children to concentrate, to pay attention, to sit still, to follow directions and to control impulsive behavior. While all young children are at times distractible, restless and oblivious to parents’ and teachers’ instructions, kids with ADHD behave this way much more often than other children their age. And their inability to settle down, focus and follow through on tasks in age-appropriate ways makes it very hard for them to do what’s expected of them at school. It can also lead to conflict at home and difficulty getting along with peers. Symptoms of ADHD Symptoms of ADHD are divided into two groups: inattentive behaviors and hyperactive and impulsive behaviors. Inattentive symptoms of ADHD: — Makes careless mistakes — Is easily distracted — Doesn’t seem to be listening when spoken to directly — Has difficulty following instructions — Has trouble organizing — Avoids or dislikes sustained effort — Is forgetful, always losing things Child Mind Institute | Page 2 Parents Guide to ADHD Hyperactive or impulsive symptoms of ADHD: — Fidgeting or squirming, trouble staying in one place or waiting his turn Kids who have inattentive — Excessive running and climbing symptoms may start to — Trouble playing quietly struggle in the middle of — Extreme impatience elementary school, when — Always seems to be “on the go” or “driven by a motor” it becomes increasingly — Excessive talking or interrupting, blurting out answers difficult for them to Some children exhibit only the first group of symptoms, and some exhibit keep up.

  • Sensory Processing Disorder and Occupational Therapy
    Running head: SENSORY PROCESSING DISORDER AND OCCUPATIONAL 1 Sensory Processing Disorder and Occupational Therapy (Persuasive Essay) ENGL 2201 East Carolina University SENSORY PROCESSING DISORDER AND OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY 2 Sensory Processing Disorder is a condition that causes hyposensitivity and hypersensitivity among its victims. Many people who suffer from Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) also have other disabilities such as autism, ADHD, and other cognitive disorders. According to The Professional Counselor, approximately 5-17% of the population has symptoms of SPD (Goodman-Scott & Lambert, 2015. p. 274). There has been an ongoing debate among medical professionals on whether SPD should be considered its own disorder. Currently in the DSM-V, SPD is not classified as its own disorder because these symptoms are often accompanied by other cognitive disorders. Even though SPD is not in the DSM-V it is still imperative that these individuals seek treatment for their symptoms. For the last 50 years, occupational therapists have been studying this disorder, and formulating treatment plans to help relieve symptoms (Goodman-Scott, & Lambert, 2015. p. 274). Occupational therapists goal is to improve a patient’s quality of life by using individualized, evidence based treatment plans. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, occupational therapy is considered the main form of treatment for symptoms of SPD because it is noted in the DSM-V as a symptom of autism (Critz, Blake, & Nogueira, 2015. p. 711). Some of the treatment plans occupational therapists use to relieve symptoms of SPD among their patients are sensory integration programs, sensory diets, floortime therapy, and self-management programs. This article argues for the effectiveness of the treatment methods implemented by occupational therapists on individuals with symptoms of SPD.

  • Sensory Processing Disorder
    Sensory Processing Disorder Jordan cries because his shoes are too tight or his socks are too scratchy; he hates the playground and the sand. Sarah doesn’t seem to know where she’s going and bumps into things; she’s tired all the time and mostly sits around at school. James is constantly fiddling with something, tapping his feet, or chewing his shirt; he wants to touch everything. Their extreme reactions to their environment could be signs of a sensory processing disorder. What It Is: Sensory processing disorder is “the inability to use information received through the senses in order to function smoothly in daily life” (Kranowtiz, p. 9). Five percent (or 1 in 20) of all children may experience enough difficulty handling the information they receive through their senses (vision, hearing, • Be under-responsive (tolerate unusual touch, taste, smell, movement and body pain, don’t notice obstacles, are awareness) to affect their daily lives. unaware of unpleasant smells).

  • Brain-Specific Autoantibodies in the Plasma of Subjects with Autistic Spectrum Disorder
    Brain-Specific Autoantibodies in the Plasma of Subjects with Autistic Spectrum Disorder MARICEL CABANLIT,a SHARIFIA WILLS,a PAULA GOINES,a PAUL ASHWOOD,b AND JUDY VAN DE WATERa aDivision of Rheumatology, Allergy and Clinical Immunology, University of California, Davis, California, USA bDepartment of Microbiology, and the MIND Institute, University of California, Davis, California, USA ABSTRACT: Although autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is diagnosed on the basis of behavioral parameters, several studies have reported immune system abnormalities and suggest the possible role of autoimmunity in the pathogenesis of ASD. In this study we sought to assess the incidence of brain-specific autoantibodies in the plasma of children with autism (AU) compared to age-matched controls including, siblings without ASD, typically developing (TD) controls, and children with other developmen- tal disabilities, but not autism (DD). Plasma from 172 individuals (AU, n = 63, median age: 43 months; TD controls, n = 63, median age: 48 months; siblings, n = 25, median age: 61 months; and DD controls, n = 21, median age: 38 months) was analyzed by Western blot for the presence of IgG antibodies against protein extracts from specific regions of the human adult brain including the hypothalamus and thalamus. The presence of a ∼ 52 kDa MW band, in the plasma of subjects with AU, was detected with a significantly higher incidence when compared to plasma from TD controls (29% vs. 8%, P = 0.0027 and 30% vs. 11%, P = 0.01, in the thalamus and hypothalamus, respectively). Reactivity to three brain proteins (42–48 kDa MW), in particular in the hypothalamus, were ob- served with increased incidence in 37% of subjects with AU compared to 13% TD controls (P = 0.004).
