Neurocognitive brain response to transient impairment of Wernicke's area.
This study examined how the brain system adapts and reconfigures its information processing capabilities to maintain cognitive performance after a key cortical center [left posterior superior temporal gyrus (LSTGp)] is temporarily impaired during the performance of a language comprehension task. By applying repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to LSTGp and concurrently assessing ...
متن کاملModerate to severe HIV-associated neurocognitive impairment
BACKGROUND HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) remains highly prevalent despite effective anti-retroviral therapy (ART). A number of adjunctive pharmacotherapies for HAND have been studied with disappointing results, but preliminary data suggest that lithium may provide clinical benefit. In addition, the low cost of lithium would facilitate access in low- and middle-income countries w...
متن کاملNeurocognitive function impairment after whole brain radiotherapy for brain metastases: actual assessment
Whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) is an effective treatment in brain metastases and, when combined with local treatments such as surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery, gives the best brain control. Nonetheless, WBRT is often omitted after local treatment due to its potential late neurocognitive effects. Publications on radiation-induced neurotoxicity have used different assessment methods, t...
متن کاملNeurocognitive impairment in patients of diabetes mellitus
This study was conducted to find out the association of diabetes mellitus with cognitive functioning. We included 50 diabetic and 3O control subjects who were screened on the basis of various inclusion and exclusion criteria. Then a history of variables under study was taken and respective laboratory investigations were noted. The cognitive function was then assessed using the Digit Span test, ...
متن کاملNeurocognitive Predictors of Response in Treatment Resistant Depression to Subcallosal Cingulate Gyrus Deep Brain Stimulation
Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical intervention with demonstrated effectiveness for treatment resistant depression (TRD), but longitudinal studies on the stability of cognitive parameters following treatment are limited. The objectives of this study are to (i) identify baseline cognitive predictors of treatment response to subcallosal cingulate gyrus (SCG) DBS for unipo...
