Pełny tekst źródłaIn recent years there has been a substantial increase in research examining the role of subjective memory complaints (SMC) in cognitive function and Alzheimer’s disease. These studies have related SMC to many different cognitive outcomes, such as retaining normal cognitive function, a fluctuating cognitive performance and the development of Alzheimer’s disease. Most of these studies have focused on older populations and have employed a limited assessment of cognitive function. This limits the available evidence regarding the clinical utility of SMC. The literature on the role of SMC in younger subjects is scarce. It is not known whether memory complaints are useful in predicting future cases of Alzheimer’s disease in younger community-based subjects. Aims: The main aim of the present study was to determine whether SMC predict the development of cognitive impairment in a younger cohort of subjects, many of whom were under the age of 70 years (73%), based on their risk profile and neuropsychological assessment. A further aim was to ascertain whether the DRS or 7MS are sensitive screening tools for MCI and examine whether the presence of SMC affects the 3-year cognitive outcome of subjects. To address these aims, this study consisted of two parts: a cross-sectional design and a longitudinal follow-up component. Methods: This study was carried out with 86 community-dwelling subjects recruited via advertisement within the catchment area of Central Sydney Area Health Service. The mean age of the subjects was 63.1 years (SD=8.4). Subjective memory complaints were assessed using a single question. Cognitive function was assessed using a comprehensive battery of tests, selected on the basis of their sensitivity to identifying cognitive impairment typically associated with Alzheimer’s disease. After the initial analysis between those with SMC and without SMC, subjects were further classified according to their performance on an episodic memory task (i.e., delayed verbal recall, Rey, 1964) as having normal memory function, SMC or aMCI. Results: Part 1 - Subjective memory complaints (SMC) were reported by 63% of the sample. The initial analysis between subjects with SMC (n=54) and without SMC (n=32) suggested an initial relationship between SMC and cognitive functioning. Subjects with SMC had impaired global cognitive functioning on two brief screening tests (7MS and DRS), working memory, verbal recall and visuomotor speed. However, subsequent screening with the delayed verbal recall test showed that 12 of the 54 subjects with SMC demonstrated significant cognitive impairment, scoring 2 SD below the control group mean. After these subjects were removed to form the aMCI group, the cognitive differences between subjects with SMC and without SMC were no longer apparent. Subjects with aMCI showed evidence of multiple cognitive deficits (below 1 SD of control group mean) with a high percentage of subjects demonstrating impairment on tests of verbal learning, verbal recall, verbal ability and visuomotor speed. Further analysis showed a significant association between age and subjects identified as having SMC (r=-.581, p<.001) and aMCI (r=.692, p<.001). From the age of 60 onwards, both the SMC and aMCI groups demonstrated a more rapid cognitive decline with increasing age in several cognitive domains. Part 2 - After a mean interval of 3.2 years, 43 subjects were followed up. Subjects with aMCI showed evidence of greater decline on both screening tests (7MS; DRS), whilst the SMC group had significantly higher scores. This trend was also apparent with other neuropsychological testing. The analysis of change over time in cognitive function showed that the majority of subjects (both SMC aMCI) either remained stable or improved their cognitive performance. It is likely that the small sample size and short follow-up interval of the present study contributed to the present observation of no change in cognitive function over time. Discussion: The present findings suggest that subjective memory complaints are a poor predictor of cognitive function. In isolation, SMC are unlikely to be useful for identifying cases with significant cognitive impairment. This is particularly relevant for subjects under the age of 70 years. However, for subjects over the age of 70 years, SMC are likely to identify significant cases with neuropsychological assessment (such as animal fluency and delayed recall). Conclusion: The present study showed that SMC are a poor predictor of cognitive function in subjects under the age of 70 years. This study provided evidence that selected and relatively quick to administer formal neuropsychological tests of cognitive function (in particular tests of animal fluency and delayed recall) are better able to identify those at risk of developing cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer’s disease, at an earlier age. This would thus allow exposure to earlier treatment options, such as donepezil, aricept, vitamin E, and memantine”.

Pełny tekst źródłaA sample of 82 individuals with schizophrenia and 28 healthy controls participated in this study and were assessed during a meal preparation task with the Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform (PRPP) System of Task Analysis and on cognitive tests of visuospatial memory, spatial working memory, visuomotor coordination, planning and selective attention. Community functioning was assessed with the Independent living Skills Survey and the Multnomah Community Ability Scale. Limitations in the Perceive, Recall and Plan quadrants of the PRPP System, were found in participants with schizophrenia when compared to a control group (n = 28), as well as in the complete sample (n = 82). Participants in the high-efficiency subgroup ( n =36) were more independent in daily living and performed better on the visuospatial associative learning task than the low-efficiency subgroup (n = 46). At the specific level of individual profiles, participants were distributed along a continuum of low- to high-functioning on the PRPP System factors and on functional, cognitive, and clinical characteristics.
The associative learning task was most associated with task performance, along with working memory and planning. Finally, less efficient planning skills were associated with a lower level of community functioning, confirming the hypothesis. These results emphasize the relationship of associative visual memory to daily task performance, as well as that of efficiency in daily activities for residential status. Integrating these findings into the rehabilitation process will contribute to better meeting the needs of people with schizophrenia.

Pełny tekst źródłaBACKGROUND: The impact on public health of neuropsychiatry disorders as dementia and mild cognitive impairment is growing as the population grows older in developing countries as Brazil. The diagnosis of these entities requires confirmation of cognitive impairment assessed by neuropsychological tests. OBJECTIVE: Compare the neuropsychological profile of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) individuals and Normal subjects from a community sample identified in a Prevalence Study of Dementia and MCI in São Paulo. METHOD: The total sample (1.563 subjects over 60 years old) was randomly selected from three different social class areas of São Paulo. The subjects were classified as amnestic MCI following criteria adapted from Petersen et al. (1999) using the following instruments: 10-point questionnaire on memory complaints, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Fuld Object Memory Evaluation, and Activities of Daily Living - International Scale (ADL-IS). In a second phase, patients were submitted to the MMSE, ADL- IS, Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ 20) to identify psychiatric symptom, and Neuropsychological test battery to evaluate: Attention (Digit Symbol from WMS-R, Trail Making Test), Memory (Logic Memory and Visual Reproduction from WMS-R, Selective Reminding Test - Buschke 1973), Praxis (Clock drawing, Block Design - WAIS-R), Language (Boston Naming Test and Verbal Fluency - animal) and Intelligence (Estimated Intellectual Quotient - Vocabulary and Block Design from WAISR). RESULTS: 37 subjects classified as amnestic MCI and 31 Normal controls completed the evaluation. We did not found significant differences between the two groups in age, gender, years of education, civil status, social class, MMSE and SRQ-20 scores. There were significant differences between MCI and controls in the following tests: Trail Making A, Logical Memory (Immediate and Delayed recall), Selective Reminding Test (total learning), Visual Reproduction (Immediate and delayed Recall), Boston Naming Test (Naming and Paragnosias), Block Design, and Estimated IQ in which MCI subjects had a worse performance than the elderly Controls. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the two groups evaluated through an extensive neuropsychological battery present differences in memory performance but also in other cognitive functions as attention, language and praxis. Perhaps the MCI multiple-domain concept would be more useful than the amnestic MCI considering individuals coming from community samples

Only NAA/Cr and MI/NAA differentiated (p < 0.002) the AD and NC groups. Significant correlation was found between NAA/Cr and MI/NAA with BRDS (total score - TS; everyday activities - EA) and FAST scales, and between MI/NAA and MMSE. Specificity increased in 5% (NC x AD; NC x MCI-A) and diagnostic accuracy in 2.4% (NC x AD) and 3.4% (NC x MCI-A) when NAA/Cr and MI/NAA ratios were added up to BRDS (TS & EA) and FAST scales, increasing MCI-A and AD detectability

Pełny tekst źródłaINTRODUCTION: Cocaine use disorder (CUD) is associated with changes in cognitive functioning and modest success rates in treatment. Substance use pattern appears to influence the severity of these alterations and may represent an important indicator for the characterization of the severity of the disorder. Currently, severity guidelines are based on the sum of diagnostic criteria of the latest version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), but it is not clear which is the most predictive indicator of cognitive changes, neither how they impact the prognosis of this population. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the associations between cocaine use variables and the severity of the disorder with cognitive functioning of inpatients, as well the relationship between these indicators and the prognosis three months after hospital discharge. METHODS: The initial analysis sample consisted of 68 inpatients with a diagnosis of CUD and prognostic data were obtained from 65 of these patients. The variables of interest were identified by the combination of data from the Structured Clinical Interview (SCID), Addiction Severity Index, 6th version (ASI-6) and medical records collected at treatment´s entry. The assessment of cognitive functioning was introduced after negativation of urine toxicology test. The correlation analyzes were investigated using Pearson, Spearman and Kendall correlation coefficients, and the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test was used for the prognostic analyzes to compare abstinent and non-abstinent patients. RESULTS: There were significant correlations between: lower age of onset and more errors in the Stroop Color- Word Test (SCWT), part C (P=.005); more years of cocaine use and worse scores in the Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) (P=.017); and more days of recent use and worst performances in the Trail Making Test (TMT), part A (P=.033), SCWT, part C (P=.007), Digit Span Forward (P=.034) and Backwards (P=.002). There were no significant correlations between sum of criteria and aspects of cognitive functioning (P >.05). However, based on the prognostic evaluation, the group of abstinent patients presented less DSM criteria when compared to the group of non-abstinent patients (P=.002). CONCLUSIONS: Recent cocaine use (in days) was the most predictive variable of worst cognitive performance, in terms of processing speed, cognitive control, attention span and working memory. It was also observed associations between precocity and duration of use with inhibitory control and executive functioning, respectively. Finally, patients considered more severe (according to DSM-5) showed to be more vulnerable to relapse three months after hospital discharge. Considering the complexity of the investigated phenomenon and the heterogeneity among severely affected patients, the integration of objective measures, such as pattern of use and cognitive functioning data, to symptom investigation should favor the identification of subgroups more severe and vulnerable to relapse

Pełny tekst źródłaBACKGROUND: The Short Cognitive Performance Test (Syndrom Kurztest, SKT) (Erzigkeit, 2001) is a bedside cognitive screening test capable of detecting deficits that characterize the early stages of dementia, as it evaluates memory and attention skills, taking into account the speed of information processing. The total score provides information about the severity of the disease. Results can also be interpreted in terms of attention and memory sub-scores to evaluate the homogeneity or discrepancy of deficits in these two domains. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to validate the Brazilian version of the SKT, and to examine its diagnostic properties in a clinical sample of elderly individuals with cognitive impairment. METHODS: Two hundred and seven subjects were assessed. Consensus diagnoses were established by an expert multidisciplinary team, considering clinical, neuropsychological and neuroimaging data. The sample was characterized in 45 patients with Alzheimers disease (AD); 82 with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 80 normal controls (NC). These data were provided for two educational levels (low: 8 years; or high: > 8 years). RESULTS: Versions A and B of the test display high internal consistency (Cronbachs =.83 and .86, respectively), good inter-rater reliability (p<.001), and concordance between the two versions (p<.001). SKT scores correlate with the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) (r=-.66; p<.001) and the Clock Drawing Test (CDT) (r=-.57; p<.001). In both education strata, ROC analyses suggested that the SKT adequately discriminates AD from MCI and CN, but is less accurate to discriminate MCI from CN. The SKT suffers mild education bias. CONCLUSIONS: The SKT maintains its original psychometric properties and display significant correlation with the MMSE, CDT, and the consensus diagnosis. These findings suggest that the SKT is a good screening instrument to differentiate the transitional progress of MCI to AD. It is subject to mild educational bias, and may not adequately separate CN from patients with MCI

Pełny tekst źródłaBehavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are common and associated with worse prognosis, higher costs of care, increased caregiver burden and earlier nursing home entry. The purpose of this study is to determine BPSD prevalence in Alzheimer Disease (AD) and cognitively impaired not dement (CIND) diagnosis in a community sample with 60 years or over of São Paulo city, and correlate these with intensity of cognitive deficit and caregiver burden. Of the 1560 individual interviewed, 42 had AD and 16 had CIND. An overall of 70,5% of individuals with AD reported one or more BPSD. Apathy (56,09% of individuals), depression (48,78%), sleep alterations (34,14%), and anxiety (29,26%) were the most prevalent disturbances in AD. These disturbances were significantly more prevalent in participants with AD than in those normal and with CIND. Although the CIND group had more symptoms than normal control group, this difference was not significant. Hallucination, agitation/aggression, depression, apathy, aberrant motor behavior and sleep alterations were significantly more common in participants with advanced dementia. The symptoms that highly correlate with caregiver burden were delusion, agitation/aggression, aberrant motor behavior and disinhibition

Pełny tekst źródłaINTRODUCTION: The term working memory (WM) refers to a construct cognitive capability of storing and keeping information on line to a determined use for a limited time, enabling the manipulation of diverse simultaneous and sequential information such as long or complex mathematical operations, comprehension of less frequent words, extensive or complex sentences. The language is among the cognitive functions which depends on the operational memory behavior and may be engaged in many pathological conditions, among them the TBI (traumatic brain injury). Literature dada relative to such population are still restrict or weak. AIM: investigate whether the n -back task is a valid measure for identifying memory deficits in patients with TBI; establish cutoff and ROC curve of n-back task; to compare performance between normals individuals and those who have suffered TBI; to compare n-back task with tests of language and aspects of neurological injury, such as severity, coma and hemispheric laterality of the lesion to verify the performance and relevance in the separation of cases. METHODOS: 53 individuals Brazilians (26 adults with TBI and 30 healthy adults) were assessed by a battery of auditory verbal stimuli for detecting differences between groups in the processing capacity of working memory, as the accuracy and span also check the relationship of working memory to language skills, through the comparison tests. RESULTS: in the comparison between patients and control subjects was observed statistically significant differences between groups thus to the tests as the basis tests as to results of the n -back. The groups were statistically matched in relation to socio-demographic variables (age, education and gender). The statistical model with variables of the n -back test showed good separation of cases where patients / control with the area under the ROC curve of 89 % . The model also showed convergence with language tests for auditory comprehension of sentences, verbal fluency and pragmatic - discursive aspects and the cognitive level. The side of the lesion was statistically significant for the n -back, verbal fluency and conversational discourse. CONCLUSION: the results demonstrated that the n-back on the way it was designed is able to distinguish the changed individuals and the normal on the working memory ability. On the study it was possible to discriminate the behaviors of individuals with acquired brain injury and healthy individuals regarding the accuracy and maximum capacity of manipulating information on the working memory. Such behavior reflects the linguistic and cognitive function which correlates with the working memory mechanism

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: Swallowing and its main characteristics are still unknown in frontotemporal dementia. Objectives: To characterize swallowing and feeding behavior of patients with frontotemporal dementia who have behavioral variant (bvFTD) and primary progressive aphasia (PPA). To characterize patients with FTD and their caregivers.To describe cognitive and behavioral aspects, functionalstatus, functional communication, and swallowing function in FTD.To describe swallowing problems and feeding behavior in bvFTD and PPA. To correlate cognitive and behavioral aspects, functional status, and communication with swallowing. To identify predictive factors associated with worsening of functionality of swallowing and feeding behavior in FTD. To evaluate the instruments used. To develop reduced versions of: \"Assessment of Feeding and Swallowing Difficulties in Dementia\" and \"Functional Outcome Questionnaire Aphasia\". Method: This study included 46 individuals with FTD in mild, moderate and severe phases, and their 46 caregivers. The Mini mental state examination (MMSE) and the Severe Mini mental state examination (SMMSE) were used to assess the cognitive aspects. The FTLD-modified Clinical Dementia Rating scale (FTLD-CDR) was used to confirm the stage of the disease. The Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) was applied to investigate the behavioral problems. The Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) investigated executive functions. The Index of Activities of Daily Living (Katz), Functional Outcome Questionnaire- Aphasia and Swallowing rating scale (SRE) evaluated the functional abilities. The Assessment of Feeding and Swallowing Difficulties in Dementia (QHADD) evaluated the difficulties in swallowing and feeding. Results: bvFTD and PPA groups showed no statistically significant difference in MMSE, CDR and FAB. Caregivers of patients with bvFTD had more hours of care per day compared to patients with PPA (p < 0.05). The groups differed in SRE (p < 0.05). The behavioral characteristics that were significant in the comparison between bvFTD and PPA groups were delirium, disinhibition, aberrant motor behavior and sleep disturbances (p < 0.05), and hallucinations (p = 0.01). Patients with bvFTD had more swallowing problems than patients with PPA, such as coughing and choking, difficulty with some food consistency and difficulty with specific food. Swallowing problems in bvFTD correlated with functionality, with the cognitive aspects (p < 0.05), with executive function and behavior (p < 0.01). In PPA, the semantic subtype showed more swallowing problems such as escape of saliva and food in mouth, multiple swallows, delay in initiation of swallowing and choking, these characteristics correlated with anxiety (p < 0.01), apathy and aberrant motor behavior (p = 0.01). The problems of feeding behavior were more frequent in logopenic subtype and correlated with communication difficulties. The major predictors of worsening of swallowing function were: functional decline, behavioral changes and impaired communication. Swallowing problems were observed at all stages of dementia. The BAF was the only instrument that had bad internal reliability. Conclusion: Swallowing problems were observed in the two variants from the early stages of dementia. Behavioral, cognitive and functional changes, and difficulties in communication compromised the anticipatory and oral preparatory phase of swallowing. Because of these changes, caregivers had difficulty in managing the feeding situation. Our study developed reduced versions of questionnaires to assess swallowing and functional communication

Pełny tekst źródłaAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most challenging children’s public health concerns today. Children diagnosed with ADHD struggle more academically and are at a significant risk of lower academic achievement, increased grade-level retention, and additional diagnoses of learning disabilities. Symptoms of ADHD primarily arise from deficits in specific executive function (EF) domains, one of which is working memory (WM). Children diagnosed are impaired on tasks that specifically measure WM capacity and short-term visuo-spatial memory. In this study, four fifth-grade students diagnosed with ADHD were administered a variety of assessments. WM was measured through a math vocabulary recall, visuo-spatial WM via a computerized Corsi Block Tapping Test, and WM capacity was assessed through an Operation Span Task. In addition, on-task behavior was determined using the partial interval recording process with overall mathematical skill based knowledge being evaluated through a pre and post assessment. Using the ABAB Withdrawal Single-Case Research Design, a 10-min intervention of short burst high intensity exercise was introduced. Participants were assessed each session (daily) and exhibited improvement on all measurements during the intervention conditions of the study.
The results suggest that a vigorous 10-min daily regime of short-burst-high-intensity exercise improves the working memory and on-task behavior of preadolescent children diagnosed with ADHD.

Pełny tekst źródłaINTRODUCTION: Population aging is a social trend known in developed countries and increasingly pronounced in developing countries. Dementia is considered one of the main health problems due to the rapid population growth of the elderly, and language disorders are considered important in these settings. The discourse is important for the identification of linguistic disorders in dementias as well as in the follow-up of these patients. The discourse differences characterization can help on the differential diagnosis and contribute to the creation of future tools for clinical intervention and help prevent the evolution and/or progression of dementia. The transcription and discourse analysis are laborius, thus the use of computational methods helped in the identification and extraction of linguistic characteristics. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to identify changes in micro and macrolinguistic aspects that differentiate individuals with Alzheimer\'s disease, mild cognitive impairment and healthy elderly individuals during narrative of figures in sequence and to explore the computational tool (Coh-Metrix-Dementia) to analyze the subjects\' discourse. METHODS: 60 subjects were evaluated, 20 of them in each research group (mild Alzheimer\'s disease - GDA, amnestic cognitive impairment - GCCLa and control - CG). The subjects were asked to construct a narrative based on sequence of pictures, about the \"Cinderella´s Story\". The following linguistic-cognitive tests were also applied: Verbal Fluency, Boston Naming Test, and Camel and Cactus test. Coh-Metrix-Dementia was used for automatic metrics extraction. RESULTS: The values extracted by Coh-Metrix-Dementia were statistically treated and it was possible to obtain metrics capable of distinguishing the studied groups. In relation to the microlinguistic aspects, it was found the reduction in syntactic abilities, greater difficulty in verbal rescue, discourses with less cohesion and local coherence in the GDA. In the macrolinguistic level the GDA presented the less informative discourses, with greater loss in global coherence and the greater number of modalizations. The GDA also presented greater impairment on narrative structure. It was not possible to discriminate GCCLa and GC in any discourse´s metric in this study tool functioning. CONCLUSION: The GDA subjects presented discourses with greater macro and microstructural impairment. The computational tool usage proved to be an important ally for discursive analysis
