Maladaptive Cardiac Autonomic Control during a Stress Reactivity Assessment Among Primary Care Patients with Metabolic Syndrome.

abstract：:Insomnia is an epidemic in the US. Neurofeedback (NFB) is a little used, psychophysiological treatment with demonstrated usefulness for treating insomnia. Our objective was to assess whether two distinct Z-Score NFB protocols, a modified sensorimotor (SMR) protocol and a sequential, quantitative EEG (sQEEG)-guided, in...
