Concept
Neurofeedback Training and Emotion Downregulation in BPD
- Neurofeedback (NF) training allows for changes in neural activity to be monitored in real-time and reported to a patient via a visual display.
- NF can enhance self-control of brain regions by showing dysregulation and may improve behavioral impairment.
- Training downregulation in BPD patients may help decrease amygdala hyperactivity; thus, improving emotion regulation.
- Resting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) scans can be obtained before NF training sessions for comparison of before and after.
- Amygdala NF during presentation of aversive pictures was associated with successful down-regulation of right dorsal amygdala activation in BPD patients.
- extrapolation: limbic hyperreactivity and lPFC hypoactivity are considered neural correlates of emotion dysregulation in patients
- It was found that BPD patients had increased amygdala-dlPFC functional connectivity (FC) at rest, and decreased amygdala-other limbic regions FC at rest.
