The effects of individual upper alpha neurofeedback in ADHD: an open-label pilot study.

abstract：:Leptin, identified as an antiobesity hormone, also has important role in responses to stress and processing of memory. This study was designed to determine effects of academic examination stress-induced changes in serum leptin and its impact on academic performance. Eighty five healthy female students (age 19-21 years...
