Title
Effects of music therapy in the treatment of children with delayed speech development – results of a pilot study
Description
Background
Language development is one of the most significant processes of early childhood development. Children with delayed speech development are more at risk of acquiring other cognitive, social-emotional, and school-related problems. Music therapy appears to facilitate speech development...

Title
Effectiveness of group music therapy versus recreational group singing for depressive symptoms of elderly nursing home residents: pragmatic trial
Description
Objectives: Several studies have suggested positive effects of music therapy in dementia, but research on age-related depression has been limited and of insufficient quality. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of interactive group music therapy versus recreational group singing on de...

Title
Music Therapy in Adults With COPD
Description
Background: Music therapy, as a non-drug therapy, is widely used in patients with COPD. However, the effects of music therapy on dyspnea, anxiety, depression and other physiological parameters has not been elucidated. Therefore, we sought to investigate the effects of passive music therapy (liste...

Title
Music therapy for people with schizophrenia and schizophrenia‐like disorders
Description
Moderate‐ to low‐quality evidence suggests that music therapy as an addition to standard care improves the global state, mental state (including negative and general symptoms), social functioning, and quality of life of people with schizophrenia or schizophrenia‐like disorders. However, effects w...

Title
The Future of Music in Therapy and Medicine
Description
The understanding of music's role and function in therapy and medicine is undergoing a rapid transformation, based on neuroscientific research showing the reciprocal relationship between studying the neurobiological foundations of music in the brain and how musical behavior through learning and e...

Title
Infant nasal nitric oxide over time: natural evolution and impact of respiratory tract infection
Description
Nasal nitric oxide (NO) discriminates between patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and healthy individuals. We report feasibility of measurement and natural evolution of nasal NO and upon the impact of respiratory tract infection (RTI) on nasal NO in healthy infants (HI), followed from ...

Title
High nitric oxide production in human paranasal sinuses
Description
Nitric oxide (NO) is present in air derived from the nasal airways. However, the precise origin and physiological role of airway-derived NO are unknown. We report that NO in humans is produced by epithelial cells in the paranasal sinuses and is present in sinus air in very high concentrations, cl...

Title
Nitric oxide suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation and protects against LPS-induced septic shock
Description
Inflammasomes are multi-protein complexes that trigger the activation of caspase-1 and the maturation of
interleukin-1β (IL-1β), yet the regulation of these complexes remains poorly characterized. Here we show that nitric
oxide (NO) inhibited the NLRP3-mediated ASC pyroptosome formation, caspas...

Title
Auditory-motor entrainment and phonological skills: Precise auditory timing hypothesis (PATH)
Description
Phonological skills are enhanced by music training, but the mechanisms enabling this cross-domain enhancement remain unknown. To explain this cross-domain transfer, we propose a precise auditory timing hypothesis (PATH) whereby entrainment practice is the core mechanism underlying enhanced phonol...

Title
Longitudinal effects of group music instruction on literacy skills in low-income children
Description
Children from low-socioeconomic backgrounds tend to fall progressively further behind their higher-income peers over the course of their academic careers. Music training has been associated with enhanced language and learning skills, suggesting that music programs could play a role in helping low...

Title
Neural entrainment to the rhythmic structure of music
Description
The neural resonance theory of musical meter explains musical beat tracking as the result of entrainment of neural oscillations to the beat frequency and its higher harmonics. This theory has gained empirical support from experiments using simple, abstract stimuli. However, to date there has been...

Title
Evidence for multiple rhythmic skills
Description
Rhythms, or patterns in time, play a vital role in both speech and music. Proficiency in a number of rhythm skills has been linked to language ability, suggesting that certain rhythmic processes in music and language rely on overlapping resources. However, a lack of understanding about how rhythm...
