Sensory Processing DifficultiesThis is a general term meaning that the challenges a person may face, could be due to how the brain is processing information received from the senses. All the incoming information to the brain comes via the senses, so you really need a bit more information, as all it essentially means is that the difficulties are due to how the brain processes the incoming information from the senses, which is not specific enough to mean much. Challenging Behaviour / Distressed BehaviourThese terms are sometimes used when a person does not meet the criteria for another condition, typically autism, yet has some of the behaviours affecting both the person and possibly others around them. The behaviours can be very similar to autism, and either milder, or without the other behaviours.See also, Autism, above. Hubel and Wiesel carried out an experiment on kittens and adults cats in 1963 which proved that the visual cortex develops during a critical period early in life.

People with bipolar disorder have episodes of depression (feeling very low and lethargic) and mania (feeling very high and overactive). Unlike simple mood swings, each extreme episode of bipolar disorder can last for several weeks (or even longer). Autism is a lifelong developmental disability which affects how people communicate and interact with the world. Learning/memory impairments in rat offspring prenatally exposed to phenytoin.

Knowledge of these learning rhythms can enable both teacher and pupil to optimise the learning and review process and prevent «learning decay». A few days ago, I wrote a blog post that explained how a split-brain model my father and I created in the early 2000s has evolved since then. In 2004, when Dad and I coined the term «up brain-down brain,» the gist of our hypothesis was that the cerebrum (up brain) was the «thinking» cerebral brain and that the cerebellum (down brain) was the «non-thinking» athletic brain.

Such intelligence is highly developed in authors, poets, orators, (some) politicians and «academics». Traditionally most so-called intelligence tests have focused on these two «talents», and most education systems around the world concentrate on these two abilities. Howard Gardner says that this has given us a warped and limited view of our learning potential. In particular we see little emphasis both at home and at school on the development of our intrapersonal and interpersonal abilities both of which are strongly interweaved with our emotional side. Our Intrapersonal intelligence is the introspective ability to know one’s self and our Interpersonal intelligence is the ability to relate with others.

Learning cerebrumiq faster than change fosters a pro-active rather than a re-active lifestyle. The 90 year old who is studying for a GCSE is continually stretching the Mind-Body to new limits, and has reached a ripe age through an intuitive understanding of what to do to stay healthy. Continuous Life-long learning keeps the brain active with each and every neuron striving to make new permanent connections. Doing (what you have always done) is Body-Mind maintenance, not improvement.

• However, acknowledging such limitations, the non-clinical evidence reports that lamotrigine at doses relevant to human therapeutic doses is not teratogenic in rodents and rabbits.
• This controls our basic instincts – breathing, heart rate, sense of territory.
• When person has no loss of awareness of their surroundings during it, it is called a focal onset aware seizure.
• In our public assessment reports, we discuss evidence-based reviews of safety issues linked with a particular medicine or group of medicines.

For pregabalin, there are emerging unpublished clinical data which are currently undergoing further evaluation but are suggestive of a possible slight increase in overall risk of congenital malformations. For gabapentin, the Marketing Authorisation holder has recently been requested to perform a population-based cohort study examining pregnancy outcomes, which ideally will include a sufficient number of exposed pregnancies to better inform our understanding of the risks to the unborn baby. The findings of both of these studies along with any other emerging data on safety of use during pregnancy of any of the antiepileptic drugs will be carefully evaluated as they become available.
