“…(2018) found no difference in postural sway or head movements between healthy controls ( n = 13) and migraineurs ( n = 15) in response to an illusory motion condition using a Pattern Glare Test. However, this study required participants to verbally answer the Pattern Glare test and cognitive tasks like that have been shown to counteract the effects of illusory motion (Swan et al., 2007, as cited in O'Hare et al., 2018).…”

“…When movement is added to what needs to be perceived, performance worsens further (McKendrick et al., 2006; Shepherd, 2006; Tibber et al., 2014), with an increase in interference (Karami et al., 2019) and illusory motion (Miller et al., 2015), although the latter has been disputed by O'Hare et al. (2018). Further research is needed to establish to what extent this evidenced general sensitivity between migraine attacks may influence performance on a wide array of tasks that require visual processing (including neuropsychological assessment tools for attention, memory, visuospatial or executive functions that may rely on visually presented materials).…”

ObjectiveMigraine is commonly overlooked by the general population and by professionals in research and clinical practice. Moreover, it is difficult to grasp the neuropsychological profile of migraineurs due to the cyclic nature of the disorder. With this in mind, a scoping review of the literature was conducted with the goal of characterizing cognitive domains associated with deficits in migraine.MethodsPubMed, PsychInfo, Scopus, EMBASE and OpenGrey databases were searched for studies published from 1st January 2006 to 30th November 2022. Following the review process, 52 eligible studies were included in the review.ResultsStudies included in this review show mixed and sometimes contradictory findings. Overall, both visual and auditory perception appear to be impaired. Deficits on attention, many memory processes, visuospatial function and spatial navigation and on a wide range of executive functions (set‐shifting and cognitive flexibility, decision‐making and reasoning, working memory and prospective memory) complete a complex cognitive profile in migraine. Lack of consistency across studies in sample selection and sizes, lack of detailed links between cognitive deficits and specific migraine phases, or length and chronicity, inconsistencies on the role of aura in cognitive function; and heterogeneity and sometimes questionable reliability and validity of some of the cognitive measures used may affect the clarity and consistency of results observed.ConclusionFurther research properly addressing the role of gender and age, migraine stage, length and chronicity of the condition, the effect of aura and comorbidities is needed, alongside increasing consistency across diverse neuropsychological assessment protocols.SignificanceThis review provides a comprehensive, up‐to‐date picture of the current status of knowledge in relation to the characterization of the complex cognitive profile of migraine. It offers detailed information of the existing research gaps and challenges to improve the cognitive characterization of migraine across its different stages and leads clinicians to carefully consider the selection of relevant cognitive tasks, in order to grasp more accurately the patient’s cognitive profile; an assessment that should be an integral part of any protocol developed for the clinical assessment and subsequent treatment planning for migraine.

Alter Game: A Study Protocol on a Virtual “Serious Game” for Relapse Prevention in Patients With Gambling Disorder

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the most successful protocol in gambling disorder (GD) treatment. However, it presents some weaknesses, especially concerning relapse prevention (RP). RP is one of the most important therapeutic steps, aiming at managing cravings and to avoid future relapse increasing perceived self-efficacy. Encouraging results come from the blending of psychotherapy and virtual reality (VR), containing gambling cues. The goal of Alter Game (approved by the Ethical Commission, Prot. No. 69346) is verifying the efficacy of an innovative psychological treatment for GD based on the integration of traditional CBT therapy and an immersive VR cue exposure therapy using a serious virtual game, which is a game designed for purposes other than entertainment. RP in virtual cue-exposure therapy allows pathological gamblers to manage the urge to gamble and to avoid relapse by becoming aware of which internal and external triggers are related to craving. We hypothesize that the integrated intervention will be more effective than simple CBT with regard to self-efficacy, craving, and gambling-related distortions. Four virtual ecological environments were developed, and a virtual app, Exludo, interfaced with a computerized multiparametric acquisition system for biofeedback, was created. A sample of about 60 patients aged between 18 and 65 with GD referring to the Addiction Medicine Unit of Verona (Rossi Hospital) will be recruited. Patients will be randomly assigned to the CBT group (16 CBT sessions) or the CBT + VR group (8 CBT sessions + 8 VR cue-exposure therapy sessions). The MCMI-III, the BIS-11, and the SOGS will be used to evaluate inclusion and exclusion criteria, while the Gambling Related Cognitions Scale and the Multidimensional Gambling Self-Efficacy Scale will be used to verify changes as a function of the treatment. Craving will be evaluated through VAS, and psychophysiological variables will be assessed through biofeedback. A pre-test/post-test experimental design with a 1-month follow-up will be conducted. This study will examine an innovative psychotherapeutic protocol for GD treatment, and it will help in identifying new virtual tools to increase the efficacy of traditional therapeutic approaches that could also be applied to treat other addictions.
