Development and inter-rater reliability of a tool assessing hypnotic communication behaviours adopted by nurses caring for children with cancer : The Sainte-Justine Hypnotic Communication Assessment Scale
(Elsevier, 2017-11-21)
Background
Several studies in pediatric oncology have shown the successful effects of using hypnotic communication techniques (HCTech) during painful medical procedures. Since no studies assessed the precise use of these ...
Mindful parenting programs in non-clinical contexts : a qualitative review of child outcomes and programs, and recommendations for future research
(Springer, 2020-05-07)
Mindful parenting programs, providing mindfulness training for parents and caregivers, have been gaining increasing attention in recent years. Parents participating in these programs have reported benefits in emotional ...
Comprehension of concrete and abstract words in patients with selective anterior temporal lobe resection and in patients with selective amygdalo-hippocampectomy
(Elsevier, 2012-01-08)
The role of the anterior temporal lobe (ATL) in semantic memory is now firmly established.
There is still controversy, however, regarding the specific role of this region in processing
various types of concepts. There ...
Are age and sex effects on sleep slow waves only a matter of EEG amplitude ?
(Oxford University Press, 2020-09-15)
Aging is associated with reduced slow wave (SW) density (number SW/min in nonrapid-eye movement sleep) and amplitude.
It has been proposed that an age-related decrease in SW density may be due to a reduction in ...
Sleep spindles are resilient to extensive white matter deterioration
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06-13)
Sleep spindles are an essential part of non-rapid eye movement sleep, notably involved in sleep consolidation, cognition, learning
and memory. These oscillatory waves depend on an interaction loop between the thalamus and ...
Do professionals change their communication behaviours following a training in hypnosis-derived communication? : a feasibility study in pediatric oncology
(Elsevier, 2020-05-21)
Objectives
The purpose of this study was to test the feasibility of a training in hypnotic communication techniques (HCTech) for pediatric nurses to prevent procedural pain and distress in children during venipunctures. ...
Cerebral white matter diffusion properties and free‐water with obstructive sleep apnea severity in older adults
(Wiley, 2020-03-13)
Characterizing the effects of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the aging brain could be key in our understanding of neurodegeneration in this population. Our objective was to assess white matter properties in newly diagnosed ...
Validity of actigraphy for nighttime sleep monitoring in hospitalized patients with traumatic injuries
(American academy of sleep medicine, 2020-02-15)
Study objectives: Sleep-wake disturbances are frequent among patients hospitalized for traumatic injuries but remain poorly documented due to the lack of tools validated for hospitalized patients. This study aimed to ...
Changes in regional cerebral perfusion over time in idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder
(Wiley, 2020-05-27)
Background
Idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder is associated with increased risk of neurodegeneration, but the temporal evolution of regional perfusion, a marker of cerebral activity, has not been ...
EEG connectivity across sleep cycles and age
(American academy of sleep medicine, 2019-11-06)
Study Objectives
In young adults, sleep is associated with important changes in cerebral connectivity during the first cycle of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Our study aimed to evaluate how electroencephalography ...
