Ending the Evidentiary & Insurance Reimbursement Bias Against Neurofeedback to Treat Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: It Will Take Clinician Action in Addition to the Compelling Science (open access)

Ending the Evidentiary & Insurance Reimbursement Bias Against Neurofeedback to Treat Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: It Will Take Clinician Action in Addition to the Compelling Science

This article argues against the treatment of Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with stimulant medication and behavior therapy, which are also typically reimbursed by healthcare insurers. Evidence suggests that these treatments fail to result in sustained benefit for the vast majority of children who receive them as demonstrated in the NIMH-funded MTA Cooperative study, the gold standard study in ADHD treatment effectiveness research. The authors instead look at the use of neurofeedback which is uniquely suited to treat the neuronal dysregulation that is common in people diagnosed with ADHD. However, healthcare insurers do not regularly cover this treatment method, so the authors direct readers to resources to appeal insurers' denial of coverage for neurofeedback.

Reactive oxygen species, abiotic stress and stress combination (open access)

Reactive oxygen species, abiotic stress and stress combination

This article reviews recent studies on the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in abiotic stress in plants, and propose that different abiotic stresses, such as drought, heat, salinity and high light, result in different ROS signatures that determine the specificity of the acclimation response and help tailor it to the exact stress the plant encounters.
