-European Wellness and Heidelberg University revolutionize Down syndrome research, advancing towards neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental studies
HEIDELBERG, Germany, Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — An innovative research collaboration between the European Wellness Biomedical Group (EWBG), through its affiliates European Wellness Academy (EWA), and Baden R
In a pivotal study published in Frontiers in Neuroscience (doi: 10.1002/brb3.3186), investigators Dr. Osama Hamadelseed, Prof. Dato’ Sri Dr. Mike Chan, Prof. Dato’ Sri Dr. Michelle Wong, and Prof. Dr. Thomas Skutella synthesized data from 84 studies spanning from 1977 to 2022. Their findings challenge the conventional view of Down syndrome as a homogeneous group, revealing unique neuroanatomical changes related to language and memory deficits that emphasize the need for personalized care approaches. .
“Individualized assessment of neuroanatomical landmarks and cognitive abilities is essential to develop effective intervention strategies,” commented Head of Neuroanatomy at the University of Heidelberg, Prof. Dr. Thomas Skutella.
A second study, published in Brain and Behavior (doi: 10.1002/brb3.3186), delved into the link between cognitive abilities and brain volume variations in Down syndrome using MRI and psychological evaluations. The findings underscore the connection between impaired cognitive functions, language skills, and brain volumes in Down syndrome, and offer insights into early intervention and rehabilitation management.
“This information could drive early intervention strategies and contribute to the design of an effective rehabilitation management protocol,” said Dr. Osama Hamadelseed.
These studies represent a significant advance in the understanding of Down syndrome and related neurodevelopmental disorders, with the potential to redefine care strategies for people with Down syndrome, ushering in a new era of better, personalized support. quality of life.
