Yayın Diffusion tensor imaging findings in children with sluggish cognitive tempo comorbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2020-06-16) Ünsel Bolat, Gül; Baytunca, Muharrem Burak; Kardaş, Burcu; İpçi, Melis; İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; Özyurt, Onur; Çallı, Mehmet Cem; Ercan, Eyüp SabriObjective: The construct of Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) is characterized by daydreaming, mental confusion, staring blankly and hypoactivity. Our main goal was to explore neuropsychological differences in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder-Inattentive presentation (ADHD-IA) groups with and without SCT symptoms compared to healthy controls. After detecting specific neuropsychological differences, we examined white matter microstructure using Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) data obtained from 3.0 Tesla MRI scans of the cases with SCT symptoms comparing to Typically Developing (TD) controls. Method: In this study, we included 24 cases in the ADHD-IA group with SCT symptoms, 57 cases in the ADHD-IA group without SCT symptoms and, 24 children in the TD group. We applied tract-based spatial statistics to the DTI measures for obtaining fractional anisotropy (FA), axial, radial and mean diffusivity (AD, RD, MD) to explore white matter differences for the whole brain. Results: Omission error scores and longer reaction time scores were specifically associated with inattention symptoms. Commission error scores were significantly and specifically related to SCT symptoms. Cases with SCT symptoms presented increased FA in the bilateral anterior and posterior limb of the internal capsule, bilateral cerebral peduncle, and the fornix than TD group. Conclusions: Neurobiological differences in ADHD cases are still relatively unexplored. We suggest that including an assessment for SCT in the neuropsychological and neuroimaging studies of ADHD may provide more consistent results.Yayın Increased cerebral blood flow in the right anterior cingulate cortex and fronto-orbital cortex during go/no-go task in children with ADHD(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-04-01) Baytunca, Muharrem Burak; de Frederick, Blaise; Bolat, Gül Ünsel; Kardaş, Burcu; İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; İpçi, Melis; Calli, Cem; Özyurt, Onur; Öngür, Dost; Süren, Serkan; Ercan, Eyüp SabriObjective: Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a relatively new imaging modality in the field of the cognitive neuroscience. In the present study, we aimed to compare the dynamic regional cerebral blood flow alterations of children with ADHD and healthy controls during a neurocognitive task by using event-related ASL scanning. Methods: The study comprised of 17 healthy controls and 20 children with ADHD. The study subjects were scanned on 3 Tesla MRI scanner to obtain ASL imaging data. Subjects performed go/no-go task during the ASL image acquisition. The image analyses were performed by FEAT (fMRI Expert Analysis Tool) Version 6. Results: The mean age was 10.88 +/- 1.45 and 11 +/- 1.91 for the control and ADHD group, respectively (p = .112). The go/no-go task was utilized during the ASL scanning. The right anterior cingulate cortex (BA32) extending into the frontopolar and orbitofrontal cortices (BA10 and 11) displayed greater activation in ADHD children relative to the control counterparts (p < .001). With a lenient significance threshold, greater activation was revealed in the right-sided frontoparietal regions during the go session, and in the left precuneus during the no-go session. Conclusion: These results indicate that children with ADHD needed to over-activate frontopolar cortex, anterior cingulate as well as the dorsal and ventral attention networks to compensate for the attention demanded in a given cognitive task.Yayın Turkish validity and reliability study of the childhood illness attitude scale(Routledge, 2025-03) Aktan, Zekeriya Deniz; İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; Ünlü, Beyza; Yılmaz Kahraman, İpek SuSevere forms of health anxiety cause serious dysfunction in people’s lives. Childhood Illness Attitude Scales (CIAS) is an assessment tool used to evaluate childhood health anxiety yet has not been validated for use in Turkey. The study aimed to examine the psychometric properties and factor structure of the Turkish version of the CIAS (CIAS-TR). The scale was administered to 306 children aged between 8 and 15 years. In addition to the CIAS-TR, participants were asked to complete the Screen for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL). To measure test-retest reliability, CIAS-TR was completed by participants 15 days later. Results demonstrated good psychometric properties with high internal consistency and test-retest reliability. A positive correlation with SCARED and a negative correlation with PedsQL. Results from Confirmatory Factor Analysis suggested that a four-factor model best fit the data. The findings of the study indicate that the Turkish adaptation of the CIAS is an appropriate tool for assessing health anxiety in children.Yayın Understanding the development of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy for children: findings from a bibliometric study(Springer Publishing Co., 2025-05-20) Çitil Akyol, Canan; İnci İzmir, Sevim BerrinBibliometric analysis is a quantitative method used to determine the development of a specific academic field, publication trends, the most influential authors, and key topics. Systematically analyzing research on the use of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) in children and adolescents is important for identifying the prominent themes in this area and revealing future research needs. Therefore, this study aims to systematically examine the academic development in this field by taking a bibliometric perspective on the existing literature regarding EMDR applications in children and adolescents. This study examines academic works in the fields of EMDR and child-adolescent mental health conducted between 1998 and 2024 by scanning for the keywords "EMDR", "children", and "child" using a bibliometric analysis approach. A total of 358 papers were found in the Scopus database and published between 1998 and early 2024, and only 223 of them were included in the analysis. The most cited authors, journals, organizations, countries, citation trends, key topics, and current growth were analyzed. The findings indicate that EMDR and child research are experiencing robust scientific growth and are receiving increasingly broader academic and clinical attention.
