Methods: Utilizing PRISMA guidelines, systematically examines studies assess younger population. Results: Key symptoms include avoidance, overstimulation, flashbacks, depression, anxiety. identifies several effective treatments, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Systemic Therapy, Play Exposure Relaxation Techniques, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. Particularly, TF-CBT is highlighted as most commonly used method treating childhood adolescent PTSD, supported by reviewed. Conclusions: A outcome study short-term reducing findings underline importance mark a substantial advancement understanding young populations.

Unraveling emotional regulation through multimodal neuroimaging techniques

Brainbridge, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 1(1), С. 1 - 26

Опубликована: Май 30, 2024

Neuroimaging techniques have significantly advanced our understanding of emotional regulation by elucidating the neural mechanisms involved. This review synthesizes findings across multiple modalities—functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), Electroencephalography (EEG), Magnetoencephalography (MEG), Positron Emission Tomography (PET), and Spectroscopy (MRS)—to highlight key insights into processing. The prefrontal cortex (PFC), amygdala, hippocampus, insula emerge as critical brain regions in regulating emotions. fMRI studies demonstrate increased PFC activity decreased amygdala responses during effective emotion regulation, indicating top-down control mechanisms. EEG MEG provide temporal dynamics responses, capturing rapid changes tasks. PET MRS reveal neurochemical basis emphasizing roles neurotransmitters like serotonin dopamine. Integration multimodal approaches, such fMRI-EEG fMRI-PET, enhances combining spatial, temporal, specificity. Challenges include methodological limitations need for diverse participant samples to improve generalizability. Future research should focus on improving spatial resolution, adopting longitudinal ecologically valid designs, fostering interdisciplinary collaborations. These advancements hold promise developing personalized interventions treatments disorders leveraging neuroimaging biomarkers underpinnings regulation.
