Abstract:

Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) affect 1 in every 88 U.S. children. ASDs have been described as neurological and developmental disorders impacting visual, motor, and visual-motor integration (VMI) abilities that affect academic achievement (CDC, 2010). Forty-five participants (22 ASD and 23 Typically Developing [TD]) 8 to 14 years old completed the Bender-Gestalt Test, Second Edition (BG II), Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration, 5th Edition (VMI-V), NEPSY Second Edition (NEPSY-II), Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-3 (TVPS-3), Navon Task, Kaufman Test of Educational

<p> The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of auditory-motor mapping training (AMMT) on the speech output of nonverbal elementary age students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Following a stroke there can be a large range of different deficits, with poor motor function and cognition being particularly important for outcome. Rehabilitation of these deficits is thus an important priority for clinicians.

In Chapter 2, prolonged Mirror Therapy was applied to chronic stroke survivors. In Chapter 3, Mirror Therapy was applied in a home based for chronic stroke survivors.

Abstract:

Motor planning was assessed by performance of 10 male children (age range 9-12 years) with ASD on a simple obstacle course of horizontal barriers. The primary measures of motor planning were acts of hesitation and hesitation time. These measures, along with executive functioning scores from the BRIEF, and measures of movement execution were correlated to assess the validity of this obstacle course. Results of these correlations supported the validity of the motor planning inferences from the performance of the obstacle course since motor planning correlated in the expected directions with the

Abstract:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating motor neuron disease which results from the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons in the brainstem, spinal cord and motor cortex. Tragically there is no treatment to prevent ALS. The drug Riluzole acts to delay progression, but only by a month or so in this disease that has a survival length of three to five years. The identification of genes that are mutated in patients with ALS would help devise novel therapeutic strategies as much remains to be discovered about the genetics of ALS. Familial forms of the disease account for only 5-

Abstract:

The autonomic nervous system innervates and influences every organ in the body through two major efferent pathways; the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Autonomic dysfunction, especially orthostatic hypotension (OH) and olfactory dysfunction, are commonly present in a variety of neurological disorders, particularly, multiple system atrophy (MSA) and allied disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF) and can significantly impact quality of life and cause significant morbidity. Similarly, non-motor symptoms have been increasingly recognized in PD.

Motor neuron diseases (MND) are heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorders in which the possible presence of cognitive and/or behavioural symptoms is a universally known neuropsychological feature. Detecting even subtle cognitive changes in MND, monitoring them over time and identifying new markers both in terms of cognition and of neuroimaging is critical due to their considerable clinical impact. This thesis examines the presence of early markers of cognitive and behavioural alterations, of disease progression and brain correlates in MND patients, using specific neuropsychological evaluations
