BACKGROUND Sedation for surgical procedures performed with regional or local anesthesia has usually been achieved with intravenous medications, whereas the use of volatile anesthetics has been limited. The use of sevoflurane for sedation has been suggested because of its characteristics of nonpungency, rapid induction, and quick elimination. The purpose of this investigation was to assess the q...
BACKGROUND It is important to detect cognitive decline at an early stage, especially before onset of mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Processing speed and working memory are aspects of cognitive function that are associated with cognitive decline. Hand strength is an inexpensive, easily measurable indicator of cognitive decline. However, associations between hand strength, processing spe...
BACKGROUND To investigate the association between hearing loss and cognitive function in a nationally representative sample of older adults. METHODS We analyzed data from the 1999 to 2002 cycles of the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey during which participants aged 60-69 years (n = 605) underwent both audiometric and cognitive testing. Hearing loss was defined by a pure tone...
BACKGROUND: Cognitive deficits, particularly executive dysfunction is common following acquired brain injury (ABI) and has detrimental effect on functional status autonomy in daily life. Among various cognitive training methods, computerized rehabilitation (CCR) been investigated as an alternative method to therapist-driven (TCR). However, previous studies have shown conflicting results the sup...
BACKGROUND Collaborating with another person may help people compensate for aging-related losses in memory performance. However, collaborating in itself is effortful and draws upon individual cognitive resources. One factor that can facilitate collaboration, and decrease its resource requirements, is familiarity between interaction partners. Such facilitation should be particularly important wh...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the cognitive skills of patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), secondary progressive MS (SPMS), and primary progressive MS (PPMS) relative to healthy control subjects and to assess whether there is heterogeneity in the type of cognitive disabilities demonstrated by patients with different MS phenotypes. METHODS RRMS patients (n = 108), SPMS patie...
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the effect of methylphenidate for treating mental sequelae after traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHODS Thirty-six patients with TBI were randomly divided into the intervention group and placebo group. The participants in the intervention group received methylphenidate, while subjects in the placebo group were administered a placebo. This study was condu...
OBJECTIVE This preliminary study aimed to investigate the effects of long-term frequent ketamine treatment on cognitive function in [AQ-A] CRPS patients. DESIGN A total of 30 CRPS patients were divided into two groups based on both the duration and frequency of ketamine treatment; the long-term frequent ketamine treatment (LF) group (N = 14) and the Non-LF group (N = 16). Participants were as...
OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of acute insulin-induced hypoglycemia on short-term, delayed, and working memory in individuals with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp was used to maintain arterialized blood glucose level at either 4.5 mmol/l (euglycemia) or 2.5 mmol/l (hypoglycemia) on two separate occasions in 16 adults with type 1 diabetes. The p...
AIMS Cognitive decline disproportionately affects older adult type 2 diabetes. We tested whether randomized intensive (INT) glucose-lowering reduces the rate(s) of cognitive decline in adults with advanced type 2 diabetes (mean: age, 60 years; diabetes duration, 11 years) from the Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial. METHODS A battery of neuropsychological tests [digit span, digit symbol substitu...
