Other Unique Bacteria01:18

Other Unique Bacteria

443
Magnetic bacteria exhibit a directed movement called magnetotaxis, driven by structures called magnetosomes. These magnetosomes consist of chains of magnetic particles made of either magnetite (Fe₃O₄) or greigite (Fe₃S₄) and are organized in a linear conformation by a protein scaffold within invaginations of the cell membrane. The bacteria align along the north–south magnetic field lines, much like a compass needle. They are typically microaerophilic or anaerobic...

Second Uniqueness Theorem01:16

Second Uniqueness Theorem

2.6K
Consider a region consisting of several individual conductors with a definite charge density in the region between these conductors. The second uniqueness theorem states that if the total charge on each conductor and the charge density in the in-between region are known, then the electric field can be uniquely determined.
In contrast, consider that the electric field is non-unique and apply Gauss's law in divergence form in the region between the conductors and the integral form to the surface...

Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

6.2K
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

System of Memory01:23

System of Memory

7.4K
Memory is categorized into three major systems: sensory memory, short-term memory (STM), and long-term memory (LTM). These systems differ in their capacity and the duration for which they can hold information. Sensory memory captures raw sensory input from the environment, holding it for just a few seconds or less. For example, on hearing a brief, loud sound, like a car horn honking, the sound seems to linger in the mind for a moment even after it stops. This is an instance of sensory memory...

Working Memory01:24

Working Memory

899
Working memory refers to a combination of components, including short-term memory and attention, that allow an individual to hold information temporarily as we perform cognitive tasks. It is an essential cognitive function that enables the execution of complex tasks such as problem-solving, comprehension, and reasoning. Unlike short-term memory, which simply involves the storage of information for a brief period, working memory involves the active manipulation and processing of this...

Long-Term Memory01:18

Long-Term Memory

696
Long-term memory is a relatively permanent type of memory, capable of storing vast amounts of information over extended periods. Its storage capacity is generally considered unlimited.
Long-term memory can be categorized into two primary types: explicit and implicit memory. Explicit memory, also known as declarative memory, involves the conscious recollection of information that we deliberately try to remember, recall, and articulate. This type of memory encompasses specific facts, events, and...

Summary

Cogmed Working Memory Training (CWMT) shows poor adherence in adults with ADHD due to tolerability issues. Future interventions require more support and structure for adult ADHD populations.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognitive Psychology

Background:

  • Cogmed Working Memory Training (CWMT) is a popular non-pharmacological ADHD intervention.
  • Evidence supporting CWMT efficacy in adults with ADHD is limited.
  • Initial studies focused on children, with less research on adult populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the short- and long-term impacts of CWMT on brain function in adults with ADHD.
  • To describe recruitment and retention difficulties encountered during CWMT studies in adults with ADHD.
  • To explore the suitability and tolerability of CWMT for adults with ADHD.

Main Methods:

  • This perspective piece analyzes challenges in a study examining CWMT in adults with ADHD.
  • It reviews literature on CWMT efficacy and limitations in comparable populations.
  • Difficulties in recruitment and retention were noted as primary indicators of concern.

Main Results:

  • Significant challenges in recruitment and retention were observed, suggesting poor suitability of CWMT for adults with ADHD.
  • Limited tolerability of the current CWMT program structure was identified as a key issue.
  • Efficacy in children may depend on clinician and caregiver support, which is lacking for adults.

Conclusions:

  • Current CWMT is not well-tolerated by adults with ADHD, leading to adherence problems.
  • Greater support and structure are necessary for CWMT to be viable for adults.
  • Future research and clinical practice should consider enhanced scaffolding for adult ADHD interventions.
