INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The purpose of the episodic memory test and the caregiver's episodic memory test is to evaluate episodic memory according to its definition in a way that is feasible for families and achieves high degrees of sensitivity and specificity. METHODS AND RESULTS We administered a test consisting of 10 questions about episodic events to 332 subjects, of whom 65 had Alzhei...

scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. however, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. the combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. in this paper, we pro...

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the verbal memory and working memory impairment in healthy siblings of patients with schizophrenia.  Methods: The purpose of this study was to compare cognitive deficits in siblings of the patients with schizophrenia and control group. A total of 35 unaffected siblings of patients with schizophrenia were selected from the relatives of the pat...

reconsolidation memory is defined as a process in which the retrieval of a previously consolidated memory returns to a labile state which is then subject to stabilization. previous studies have shown that mineralocorticoid receptors (mrs) modulate distinct phases of learning and memory, which display a high concentration and distinct distribution in the hippocampus. moreover, we found no studie...

In this article we derive an algorithm for computing the \optimal" wait-free program on two processors that implements a given relation from the semantics of a small atomic read/write shared-memory parallel language. This algorithm is compared with the more general algorithm given in 8, 12] based on the participated set algorithm of 1]. An extension to this is given, where we add a test&set pri...

previous studies had reported that extracellular levels of ascorbic acid have modulatory effects on dopamine receptors. both ascorbic acid and dopamine receptor have an important role in learning and memory processes. however, the central interaction between ascorbic acid and dopamine d2 receptor on spatial learning and memory has not yet been elucidated. all experiments were carried out on mal...

The Lattice Boltzmann Method algorithm is simplified by assuming constant numerical viscosity (the relaxation time fixed at $\tau=1$). This leads to the removal of distribution function from computer memory. To test solver Poiseuille and Driven Cavity flows are simulated analyzed. error solution decreases with grid size L as $L^{-2}$. Compared standard algorithm, presented formulation simpler s...
