ADOLESCENTS IMAGING USING fMRI: Feasibility Study
ID: NCT07540429
Our intelligence engine has synthesized this trial record to answer your most important questions in clear, simple terms:
Impaired social cognition and cognitive control associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD) remain less explored. Recent Franco-Canadian study, has shown the feasibility of a neuroimaging tests in Quebec adolescents with BPD. This study aims to increase knowledgements related to neural correlates of BPD and clinical disorders.
Investigators used fMRI to compare patterns of regional brain activation between three groups of adolescents girls: Six female adolescents meeting criteria for BPD, 6 female adolescents meeting criteria of ADHD and 6 female adolescents without psychiatric disorder were recruited.
