Functional neurology deals with affecting neurologic pathways or areas of the brain that are under functioning (A functional disconnect syndrome with regard to an Asperger's child). This assumes that there are no structural problems in the anatomy and children with Asperger's Syndrome are just this type of situation. Their neurological workup that might have included an EEG or an MRI is usually normal. Thus we are dealing with a functional lesion and not a hard lesion such as a tumor or stroke. It is the practicing functional neurologist job to localize or find out where the problem is in the nervous system. Along with a thorough neurological examination an in-depth history must be performed which includes motor development. The doctor should look for developmental delays such as delayed crawling Linval Joseph Jersey , standing or walking which may signal when the problems began. Once the primary problem has been determined all secondary lesions and consequences of that primary lesion must be addressed. Hemispheric integration relates to the concept that usually these Asperger's children will have an underactive hemisphere and poor communication between the hemispheres. With Asperger's Syndrome children this tends to be the right hemisphere. Let us look at normal functions of the right hemisphere.
NORMAL FUNCTIONS: Right Hemisphere is responsible for nonverbal communication, math, reasoning, reading comprehension Kirk Cousins Jersey , spatial and attention. It controls impulsive behavior, feeling your own body, proprioception, seeing the big picture (Global Coherence) Adam Thielen Jersey , facial recognition, social skills, withdrawal behavior and getting stuck in any activity. Right hemisphere may also control fear, anxiety Stefon Diggs Jersey , immune suppression, low frequency sound and light, gross motor, eyes Harrison Smith Jersey , posture, and big muscle rhythm.
Now let?s look at a paragraph from National Institute of Health. What is Asperger's syndrome?
Children with AS are isolated because of their poor social skills and narrow interests. They may approach other people, but make normal conversation impossible by inappropriate or eccentric behavior or by wanting only to talk about their singular interest. Children with AS usually have a history of developmental delays in motor skills such as pedaling a bike, catching a ball Vikings Kids Jersey , or climbing outdoor play equipment. They are often awkward and poorly coordinated with a walk that can appear either stilted or bouncy.
Now back to the title of the article. Children with Asperger's syndrome are higher functioning along the autism spectrum. They are intelligent, so much so that they are known as the little professors. They do not have verbal communication issues and are better able to follow instructions. The functional neurology practitioner will treat the patient with a concept called neural plasticity. Neural plasticity states that the brain is malleable and can be changed. There are many therapies and exercises that can be performed with the Asperger's child in order to up regulate the under functioning and under connected areas. The better the child can follow instructions the more therapies that are available to the doctor to create the changes necessary to help the child. Since an Asperger's child is high functioning this opens the possibility of a wider range of therapies that can be used and the children can usually progress through them faster. This also allows the functional neurology practitioner to move up through the nervous system from the foundation on up, stimulating the affected area with more ease.

WASHINGTON Vikings Youth Jersey , June 1 (Xinhua) -- It is the third time that scientists have detected gravitational waves -- ripples in space and time -- demonstrating that "a new window in astronomy has been firmly opened."

The waves were picked up by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory(LIGO) on Jan. 4. They were generated when two black holes collided to form a larger black hole billions of light-years away from the earth, as was the case with the first two detections, according to a research published on Thursday.

"We have further confirmation of the existence of stellar-mass black holes that are larger than 20 solar masses -- these are objects we didn't know existed before LIGO detected them," says David Shoemaker Vikings Womens Jersey , spokesperson for the LIGO Scientific Collaboration.

"It is remarkable that humans can put together a story, and test it, for such strange and extreme events that took place billions of years ago and billions of light-years distant from us," he says.

"It looks like Einstein was right -- even for this new event Black Vikings Jersey , which is about two times farther away than our first detection," says Laura Cadonati, the Deputy Spokesperson of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration.

Gravitation waves were predicted by Albert Einstein more than a century ago and were detected for the first time in September 2015.
