Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
The main objective of this study was to identify physiological markers of the sensorial processing of the newborn and relation with behavioral measures. In order to accomplish this aim, we collected: a) EEG, physiological and neurobehavioral measures at 1-month-old; and 2) behavioral and cognitive measures at one-year old.
Results showed that when considering the visual and auditory evoked potentials, no statistically significant differences were found between the three intensities. However, when correlating the physiological data with the neurobehavioral assessment, we verified that higher ERP amplitudes (e.g. P100) were observed for higher stimuli intensities, which were further correlated with neurobehavioral domains that characterized more reactive infants. For the physiological measures, statistically significant differences were found in the Cardiac Frequency to visual stimuli, where higher frequencies were also observed for higher intensities. Moreover, these increased physiological reactivity was correlated with the neurobehavioral domain Autonomic System, suggesting that increased physiological response to higher intensity stimuli were observed in more reactive infants. With respect to auditory stimulus, we did not observe differences between intensities. Additionally, when Respiratory Frequency was analyzed, we did not observe differences between the three intensities for visual and auditory stimuli. Nevertheless, when correlating the physiological data with the neurobehavioral assessment, hyper-reactive domains were correlated with higher respiratory frequencies. These findings suggest that infants who presented more reactive neurobehavioral features tend to present a more reactive physiological pattern to external stimuli.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The main objective of this review is to provide a descriptive analysis of the biological and physiological markers of tactile sensorial processing in healthy, full-term newborns. Research articles were selected according to the following study design criteria: (a) tactile stimulation for touch sense as an independent variable; (b) having at least one biological or physiological variable as a dependent variable; and (c) the group of participants were characterized as full-term and healthy newborns; a mixed group of full-term newborns and preterm newborns; or premature newborns with appropriate-weight-for-gestational age and without clinical differences or considered to have a normal, healthy somatosensory system. Studies were then grouped according to the dependent variable type, and only those that met the aforementioned three major criteria were described. Cortisol level, growth measures, and urinary catecholamine, serotonin, and melatonin levels were reported as biological-marker candidates for tactile sensorial processing. Heart rate, body temperature, skin-conductance activity, and vagal reactivity were described as neurovegetative-marker candidates. Somatosensory evoked potentials, somatosensory evoked magnetic fields, and functional neuroimaging data also were included.

Visual event-related potentials in healthy infants
Publication year: 2012

http://www.issbd2012.com/documents/ISSBD2012_AbstractBook.pdf
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
INTRODUCTION:
A large amount of research in the developmental domain has focused its attention in the newborns’ behavioral analysis. More recently, electrophysiological measures studies, such as ERPs studies, have been used to extend our knowledge about these behavioral data by learning the cerebral processes for normal as well as aberrant development (Karrer, 1998). Indeed, visual event
-related potentials (VERPs) studies with infants, at an early stage, have been proposed to be important markers in early diagnosis of sensorial deprivation (Benavente, Tamargo, Tajada, Yuste & Oliván, 2005). Studies comparing healthy newborns and newborns with different pathological diagnosis (i.e., perinatal asphyxia or intraventricular hemorrhage) showed that the VERPs components were different, namely that healthy infants presented more early components, such as N1, P2 and N3 (Kraemer, Abrahamsson & Sjostrom, 1999; Toru & Watanabe, 2006). Therefore, the objective of the present study is to understand and identify the VERPs components to different intensity visual stimuli in healthy infants.
METHOD:
Sixty-one newborns were recruited, thirteen families came to the hospital and thirteen infants were assessed. All infants were full-term, with birth weights ranging from 2620 to 4270g and had normal Apgar scores. The data for one baby was lost due to technical problems. VERP data for twelve caucasian infants with ages ranging from 23 to 41 days were recorded. Study objectives and procedures were described to parents and informed consent was obtained. When they arrived, the newborn was placed in their mother’s lap and the researcher offered white flashes holding the lamp of a Grass PS33-Plus (Astro-Med Inc.) flash stimulator, positioned at 20 cm distance from the infant and directed towards their eyes. The stimulus was offered in three different intensities. Data was recorded using a QuickAmp amplifier linked to a 32 channels ActiCap and Vision Recorder 1.10 Software (Brain Products, Brainvision Inc.).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:
All the infants showed visual evoked responses and isual ERPs components were identified. This knowledge can help professionals to make early diagnosis and adjust more direct and appropriate treatment plans for infants with sensorial processing difficulties.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to identify electrophysiological responses of around one-month-old infants when presented with olfactory stimuli. These stimuli were offered in three different intensities and we looked for the appearance of olfactory event-related potentials (OERP) for each stimuli intensity.
BACKGROUND:
Since the birth, the neonate is able to respond with specific behaviors to different stimuli that surround him. She may cry when facing an aversive stimulus, shows aversion facial expressions when presented with odors that were previously considered as unpleasant and, likewise, is able to crawl to follow the mother´s breast odor. Behavioral preference signals, such as head turning, when a pleasant olfactory stimuli is presented, can also be observed. These evidences can demonstrate that the olfactory function develops from the first years of life and that at birth this function is already operational, producing behavioral and psychophysiological responses in the newborn.
METHOD:
Sixty-one newborns were recruited at the Obstetric and Pediatric services of Woman’s, Children’s and Adolescent’s Department of Hospital Pedro Hispano, in Matosinhos, Portugal. From the total recruited, thirteen appeared in the hospital and thirteen circa one-month old infants participated in the study. OERP’s were registered with a total of 12 caucasian newborns (6 female, 6 male) because, due to technical issues in the registry, the data for one infant was lost. The infants aged between 23 to 41 days. All infants were full-term with birth weight between 2620g to 4270g and normal Apgar score. To elicit OERP, monomodal chemosensory nasal stimulation was performed using an Olfactometer OM2s (Burghart Instruments, Wedel, Germany). This was achieved by embedding chemical stimuli of 200 ms duration in a constantly flowing air stream (5 l/min) applied to the nasal mucosa by an enteral feeding tube inserted approximately 5mm into the nostril beyond the nasal valve area and fixed to the nose with Mefix adhesive. For the olfactory stimulation Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol Rose-like Odor was used (PEA, 10 30 and 50% v/v; Sigma, Deisenhofen, Germany), offered in three different sequences.
RESULTS:
At the present moment, the data analysis is still an ongoing process and because of that there are no results to present. But, being such an ambitious project and using methodologies that are quite new with such young infants we can, however, conclude that collecting the data using the procedures reported above is a doable process and that it is possible to offer the olfactory stimuli the way we did.

Neurophysiological correlates of interactive behavior - Evidence from infant development and implications for therapeutic relationship
Publication year: 2014

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The present dissertation focus on the neurophysiological correlates underlying interactive behavior, considering that social behavior has been accounted as a core dimension involved in developmental outcomes and, thus with important implications for the establishment of therapeutic relationship. Therefore, this dissertation addresses two main research topics: 1) the neurophysiological signatures associated with interactive behavior in 1-month-old infants; and 2) the physiological correlates underlying the therapeutic dyad interactive exchanges, within the therapy context. Regarding the neurodevelopmental studies, visual and auditory stimuli intensities were offered to 1-month-old infants, while their central and peripheral nervous system activity was recorded. Additionally, the infants were assessed, in regards to their social behavior, with a neurobehavioral scale. Results showed that higher visual evoked-potentials (VEP) and auditory evoked-potentials (AEP) P2 amplitude to the higher intensity stimuli. VEP N3 amplitude was found to be positively associated with adjusted orienting and state regulation behaviors, but in the in the lower intensity condition. Similarly, greater P2 amplitude in the lower intensity was positively correlated with the same behaviors. Moreover, P2 amplitude in the lower intensity was found to predict language abilities in 12-month-old infants. Furthermore, results showed that young infants displayed an increase in heart rate to the higher auditory stimuli intensity. In addition, vagal tone, to both auditory intensities, was found to be positively associated with regulatory abilities in 1-month-old infants, which are essential for social involvement. These results suggest that the neurophysiological correlates are observed in regards to different sensory stimuli intensities processing. Moreover, they seem to be associated with adjusted social behavior and developmental competences, evidencing that early in the development we can identify specific neurophysiological markers underlying adjusted interactive behavior. The identification of these markers may contribute to an early identification of developmental-related problems. Considering the studies focused on the therapeutic relationship, specifically, we aimed to characterize the collaboration process, and the underlying physiological correlates, occurring in the initial phase of a good outcome case. The therapeutic dyad was assessed in regards to their physiological reactivity, during each therapeutic session. Both therapist and client heart rate (HR) activity was recorded. Afterwards, therapy session’s collaboration process was characterized by coding the different therapeutic exchanges according to the Therapeutic Collaboration Coding System (TCCS). In order to verify if HR pattern between the dyad was associated with the collaboration process, physiological concordance and discordance was calculated for each therapeutic episodes identified. Results showed that, collaboration process in the first session is mainly characterized by collaborative exchanges, where therapist’s interventions that are coded as supporting problem and client’s response as safety. Therapist’s challenging interventions occurring in this session were commonly invalidated, producing non-collaborative episodes. As the initial phase of the therapy moves on, novelty interventions introduced by the therapist tend to be more frequently validated. By the forth session, the episodes now occurring are more often challenging, from the therapist’s side, followed by safety or tolerable risk responses, from the client’s side (producing collaborative episodes). In general, collaborative episodes, specifically supporting problem-safety, were accompanied by physiological concordance, as therapist and client’s HR is similar. In non-collaborative episodes, commonly invalidated challenges, the client tends to increase his HR, which is not accompanied by the therapist’s HR and, therefore, physiological discordance is observed. Nevertheless, in collaborative episodes that are characterized as validated challenging interventions, both therapist and client’s HR increased, which may be associated with the client’s perceiving and accepting new perspectives. This acceptance is followed by physiological signature (i.e. increase HR), which seems to be associated with cognitive and emotional processes. These results suggest that specific collaboration exchanges are happen in the initial phase of a good outcome case and, furthermore, such exchanges seems to be accompanied by different HR activity patterns that are associated with collaborative and non-collaborative episodes. Overall, this dissertation presents evidence that specific neurophysiological correlates are associated with interactive behavior involved in infancy development that may offer a framework to understand the dynamics of the physiological processes regarding interactive behaviors in the therapeutic relationship.

Vagal modulation of 1-month-old infants to auditory stimuli is associated with self-regulatory behavior
Publication year: 2018

http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sode.12270/abstract
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
During infancy, cardiac vagal modulation has been associated with attentional and social engagement behaviors. While studies have shown that infants display a behavioral repertoire that enables them to interact with others by being able to regulate themselves in order to attend to and to discriminate emotional and social cues, vagal modulation to sensory stimuli and its association with behavioral outcomes at early ages remains to be addressed. In this study, we analyzed the cardiac vagal response of 1-month-old infants to two auditory stimuli intensities and whether vagal response was associated with social interactive and self-regulatory abilities. Therefore, we recorded cardiac and respiratory physiological responses in 28 infants using a Biopac System. Neurobehavioral assessment was performed using the Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale. We observed increased respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) amplitude to both auditory stimuli intensities when compared to baseline. No intensity effect was found for the RSA response. Additionally, we observed that higher RSA amplitude to both auditory stimuli was positively correlated with adjusted self-regulatory behaviors, suggesting a convergence between multiple measures assessing infants' state regulation. Results are discussed in light of 1-month-old infants' auditory stimuli processing and its implications for regulatory behaviors and the emergent social-like behaviors.

Contributions of infant vagal regulation at 1 month to subsequent joint attention abilities
Publication year: 2018
URL:
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/dev.21582/full
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Since birth, humans develop an ability to regulate their inner states and behaviors, when facing demanding situations, in order to restore calmness and engage with other persons and the surrounding environment. The present study analyzed whether 1-month infant vagal regulation to auditory stimuli was associated with later joint attention abilities-responding to and initiating joint attention-in interaction with their mothers. Twenty-three infants were assessed and measures of respiratory sinus arrhythmia-RSA (baseline and vagal tone change during auditory stimulation) were used as index of vagal regulation. At 12-months, joint attention behaviors were assessed in a 10-min toy-play mother-infant interaction. Correlational analyses showed that lower baseline RSA and larger increases in vagal tone during auditory stimulation were related to more instances of joint attention behaviors at 12 months, especially responding to joint attention. Results suggest that distinct profiles of autonomic functioning may contribute to joint attention skills.

A VEP study in sleeping and awake one-month-old infants and its relation with social behavior
Publication year: 2015

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
With the present study we aimed to analyze the relationship between infants' behavior and their visual evoked-potential (VEPs) response. Specifically, we want to verify differences regarding the VEP response in sleeping and awake infants and if an association between VEP components, in both groups, with neurobehavioral outcome could be identified. To do so, thirty-two full-term and healthy infants, approximately 1-month of age, were assessed through a VEP unpatterned flashlight stimuli paradigm, offered in two different intensities, and were assessed using a neurobehavioral scale. However, only 18 infants have both assessments, and therefore, these is the total included in both analysis. Infants displayed a mature neurobehavioral outcome, expected for their age. We observed that P2 and N3 components were present in both sleeping and awake infants. Differences between intensities were found regarding the P2 amplitude, but only in awake infants. Regression analysis showed that N3 amplitude predicted an adequate social interactive and internal regulatory behavior in infants who were awake during the stimuli presentation. Taking into account that social orientation and regulatory behaviors are fundamental keys for social-like behavior in 1-month-old infants, this study provides an important approach for assessing physiological biomarkers (VEPs) and its relation with social behavior, very early in postnatal development. Moreover, we evidence the importance of the infant's state when studying differences regarding visual threshold processing and its association with behavioral outcome.

Start date: 1994
History:
The BIAL Foundation was created in 1994 by Laboratórios BIAL in conjunction with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. BIAL’s Foundation mission is to foster the scientific study of Man from both the physical and spiritual perspectives.
Along the years the BIAL Foundation has developed an important relationship with the scientific community, first in Portugal and after worldwide. Today it is an institution of reference which aims to stimulate new researches that may help people, promote more health and contribute to new milestones to gain access to knowledge.
Among its activities the BIAL Foundation manages the BIAL Award, created in 1984, one of the most important awards in the Health field in Europe. The BIAL Award rewards both the basic and the clinical research distinguishing works of major impact in medical research.
The BIAL Foundation also assigns Scientific Research Scholarships for the study of neurophysiological and mental health in people, arousing the interest of researchers in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
To date the BIAL Foundation has supported 461 projects, more than 1000 researchers, with research groups in twenty-seven countries, resulting, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, out of which 172 published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Since 1996 the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers well renowned neurosciences speakers and the BIAL Foundation Fellows which are spread around the world.
Classified as an institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the Portuguese President, the Portuguese Universities Rectors' Council and the Portuguese Medical Association.

Title: BIAL Grants
Start date: 1994
History:
In 1994 the BIAL Foundation launched a programme of science research grants with the aim of encouraging the research into Man’s physical and mental processes, namely in fields still largely unexplored but which warrant further scientific analysis, as Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
Since its launch, applications to the BIAL grants have been increasing. Up to now 461 projects have been supported, involving more than 1000 researchers from 27 countries.
The approved applications have benefited from grants in amounts comprised between €5,000 and €50, 000. The amount to be granted is fixed by the Scientific board according to the needs of each project.
The supported projects have originated, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, 172 out of which were published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Among the BIAL Foundation fellows is worth highlighting the presence of scientists from prestigious universities from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Russia, Germany, Japan, France, Canada, and many others.
The BIAL grants are promoted biannually.

Title:
Cortical auditory evoked potentials in 1-month-old infants predict language outcomes at 12 months
Publication year: 2022

Abstract/Results: Abstract
The neurophysiological assessment of infants in their first developmental year can provide important information about the functional changes of the brain and supports the study of behavioral and developmental characteristics. Infants’ cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) reflect cortical maturation and appear to predict subsequent language abilities. This study aimed to identify CAEP components to two auditory stimulus intensities in 1-month-old infants and to understand how these are associated with social interactive and self-regulatory behaviors. In addition, it examined whether CAEPs predicted developmental outcomes when infants were assessed at 12 months of age. At 1 month, P2 and N2 components were present for both auditory stimulus intensities, with an increased P2 amplitude being observed for the higher-intensity stimuli. We also observed that an increased P2 amplitude in the lower intensity predicted receptive and expressive language competencies at 12 months. These results are consistent with previous findings indicating an association between auditory processing and developmental outcomes in infants. This study suggests that specific auditory neurophysiological markers are associated with developmental outcomes in the first developmental year.
