چکیده

On four tests of visual recognition memory Parkinsonian patients obtained normal scores, both immediately and after a delay. They also resembled controls closely in nearly all characteristics of memory. Their performance did not correlate with age, motor disability or disease duration. Parkinson's disease does not, therefore, affect this kind of memory.

The Effect of Ethanolic The effect of ethanolic extract of Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) on improving the spatial memory parameters in the experimental models of Parkinson disease in male rats

Background & Objective: The axial role of the oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of Parkinson disease has been identified. On the other hand, the learning and memory impairment in Parkinson disease has a distinguished outlook. Since Saffron has antioxidative stress effects, the aim of the present study is to investigate the improving effects of Saffron extract on the spatial memory paramet...

Recognition by familiarity is preserved in Parkinson's without dementia and Lewy-Body disease.

OBJECTIVE The retrieval deficit hypothesis states that the lack of deficit in recognition often observed in patients with Parkinson's disease is because of the low retrieval requirements of the task, given that these patients have retrieval and not encoding deficits. To test this hypothesis we investigated recognition memory by familiarity in Parkinson's patients and in patients with Lewy Bodie...

Exploring the recognition memory deficit in Parkinson's disease: estimates of recollection versus familiarity.

Current theories postulate that recognition memory can be supported by two independent processes: recollection (i.e. vivid memory for an item and the contextual details surrounding it) versus familiarity (i.e. the mere sense that an item is old). There is conflicting evidence on whether recognition memory is impaired in Parkinson's disease, perhaps because few studies have separated recollectio...

Background: Most studies have investigated the effect of brain pathological aging on information recall and recognition memory performance of patients (by using a yes/no procedure), and for this reason, provide a partial picture of memory deficits and other factors involved in recognition memory such as discriminability and response bias are not considered. In this regard, the aim of present st...

The protective effect of hesperetin and nano-hesperetin on object recognition memory in animal model of Alzheimer

Background and objectives: Hesperetin (Hst), aglycone form of hesperidin, is reported to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities. On the other hand, the latest nanoparticle technology can help to improve the bioavailability of Hst, which is affected by the final particle size and stability. Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease, character...
