Abstract:
We are reporting the case of
a
female
patient
with
severe
chronic
pain,
which
was
successfully
treated
applying
a
phantom
limb
pain
(PLP)
protocol
of
the
Eye
Movement
Desensitization
and
Reprocessing
(EMDR).
The
patient
is
a
seventy-‐
year-‐old
female,
who
suffered
from
paralysis
in
the
left
lower
limb
due
to
an
accident
during
an
orthopedic
operation
for
herniated
disc.
After
the
operation,
she
began
to
experience
sharp
pain
in
the
paralyzed
limb,
and
neither
nerve
blocks
nor
trials
of
medicine
were
effective
for
this
pain.
It
continued
for
8
years
until
a
PLP
protocol
was
applied.
During
the
sessions
of
the
protocol,
her
sharp
pain
gradually
diminished
and
virtually
disappeared
at
the
end
of
the
EMDR
sessions.
A
follow-‐up
interview,
held
three
years
after
the
sessions,
confirmed
no
recurrence.
The
study
was
designed
to
examine
the
changes
of
frontal
and
temporal
cortices
in
the
blood
flow
in
brain
by
NIRS
during
sessions
of
EMDR.
During
the
recall
of
her
trauma-‐related
events,
her
heart
rate
and
the
blood
flow
increased
in
the
area
of
the
right
superior
temporal
sulcus.
Eye
movement
with
the
recall
of
traumatic
events
leads
to
a
generalized
decrease
in
brain
blood
flow.
The
results
suggest
that
a
PLP
protocol
may
be
an
effective
option
for
the
treatment
of
chronic
pain.
It
is
probably
because
the
technique,
which
is
effective
for
post-‐traumatic
stress
disorder,
can
potentially
dissolve
traumatic
pain
memory.
The
findings
on
blood
flow
seem
to
suggest
that
EMDR
is
effective
in
treating
PTSD
by
normalizing
excessive
cerebral
activation,
particularly
in
the
right
hemisphere,
which
is
related
to
the
memory
of
trauma.

Tras

ni

siguió

que

disminuía

Durante

se

de

Se
diseñó
el

para
examinar
los
cambios
del
flujo

cerebral
en
las
cortezas
frontal

mediante

en
las

Durante
el
recuerdo

se
aumentó

en

Los

que
se

Los
resultados
sugieren
que
un
protocolo
específico
para

puede
representar
una
alternativa
efectiva
para
el

crónico.
Probablemente
se
debe
a

esta

que
es
efectiva
en
el
trastorno

tiene
el
potencial

Los
hallazgos

Abstract:
Reports an error in "Hemodynamic responses of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing in posttraumatic stress disorder" by Toshiyuki Ohta ni, Koji Matsuo, Kiyoto Kasai, Tadafumi Kato and Nobumasa Kato (Neuroscience Research, 2009[Dec], Vol 65[4], 375-383). The publisher regrets that the surname of Dr. Ohtani was incorrectly spelt in the original article. The corrected author listing is given in the erratum. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2009-20201-001). Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is an effective psychological intervention for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Trauma-related recall (Recall) with eye movements (EMs) is thought to reduce distress. However, the neural mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown. Thirteen patients with PTSD received EMDR treatment over the course of 2–10 weeks. We assessed the change in hemoglobin concentration in the lateral prefrontal cortex (PFC) during Recall with and without EM using multi-channel near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Clinical diagnosis and improvement were evaluated using the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale. Recall with EM was associated with a significant decrease in oxygenated hemoglobin concentration ([oxy-Hb]) in the lateral PFC as compared with Recall without EM. Longitudinally, [oxy-Hb] during Recall significantly decreased and the amount of decrease was significantly correlated with clinical improvement when the post-treatment data was compared with that of the pre-treatment. Our results suggest that performing EM during Recall reduces the over-activity of the lateral PFC, which may be part of the biological basis for the efficacy of EMDR in PTSD. NIRS may be a useful tool for objective assessment of psychological intervention in PTSD. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)

Abstract:
A growing number of functional neuroimaging studies on PTSD have described the abnormal response of amygdala and prefrontal cortex to traumatic stimuli. Abnormal activation of some parts of the prefrontal cortex might possibly be involved in the pathophysiology of PTSD.

Abstract:
Previous studies on rapid eye movement sleep have demonstrated the effect of eye movement on emotional memory. However, the brain mechanism involved in the influence of the eye movement on the emotional recall remains unclear. We investigated the prefrontal response during an emotional memory recall with and without eye movement. Ten healthy volunteers were recruited. The changes in concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin ([oxy-Hb]) in the prefrontal cortex were examined using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during a task that involved emotional recall with and without eye movement. Six participants demonstrated a significant increase in [oxy-Hb] during emotional recall, and the level of increase was reduced through repeated emotional recall with eye movement. The results suggest that eye movement is associated with a reduction in the hemodynamic response to emotional memory recall

Abstract:
In order to investigate brain activity during EMDR, 52-channel
NIRS(near –infrared spectroscopy) and heart rate were measured in treating a
traumatic memory of non-clinical twenty five year old woman. A target memory
was sexually molestation by a stranger when she was ten years old, and forced to
touch penis of perpetrator. And IES-R score was as low as 11. A well-experienced
EMDR therapist (=M.I.) applied estandarized EMDR protocol. Negative cognition
was “I am shameful person”, and positive cognition was ”I deserve to live.” The
body location is both arms and hands. By thirty-seven sets of EM, 7.5 level of SUDs
decreased to 0, and VOC went up from 3.5 to 7. The [oxy-Hb] change in right
orbitofrontal cortex increased as the negative emotion went up, and decreased
rapidly after processing. The [oxy-Hb] change in left orbitofrontal cortex
decreased just after cognitive interweave of responsibility was done. The [oxy-Hb]
variation in right temporal lobe increased rapidly, and the [oxy-Hb] change in left
temporal lobe decreased when direction of EM was changed from horizontal to
diagonal movement when negative imagery disappeared. Heart rate data show
gradual decreasing tendency throughout the session. Within each set, heart rate
also decreased by EM. By monitoring NIRS, various techniques or pivotal
processes in EMDR may be supposed to influence brain. In order to confirm the
relationship, we should collect data from more subjects.

Abstract:
For 34 victims of Tokyo subway sarin attack, the frontal lobe function was investigated during eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR). And, cerebral hemodynamics in frontal lobe was examined using near infrared spectral analysis (NIRS) for 10 healthy subjects and 2 patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). As the result, frontal lobe functional depression of frontal lobe was indicated in PTSD patients. It was indicated that the lowering of the cathexis was concerned in frontal lobe functional depression in PTSD patients. In patients with PTSD, according to the advance of EMDRt, the activation of the frontal lobe was decreased, and it was indicated that this pattern would be similar to that of healthy subject.
