Examining the link between information processing speed and executive functioning in multiple sclerosis.
Slowed information processing speed (IPS) is frequently reported in those with multiple sclerosis (MS), and at least 20% are compromised on some aspect of executive functioning also. However, any relationship between these two processes has not been examined. The Sternberg Memory Scanning Test, Processing Speed Index (WAIS-III), Delis Kaplan Executive Function System (D.KEFS), and Working Memor...
متن کاملTHE EFFECTIVENESS OF COGNITIVE REHABILITATION ON PROCESSING SPEED, WORKING MEMORY CAPACITY, EXECUTIVE FUNCTION, AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS PATIENTS: A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL STUDY
Background & Aims: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease that is the most common cause of disability and may be associated with cognitive impairment. Despite the implementation of cognitive rehabilitation (CR) studies in patients with MS, there are still no clear and conclusive results. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of CR on speed and WM capacity, executive funct...

One cognitive domain is an executive function. Executive function is important in individuals’ cognitive skills, adaptive behaviors, and life satisfaction. Thus, accurately recognizing and investigating the factors affectin...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Glutamate and Multiple Sclerosis
Glutamate is the most important excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system which is involved in synaptic transmission, brain development, synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. Normally, the enzymatic destruction of glutamate does not occur in the synaptic and extracellular space, but glutamate is removed through specific transporter proteins, leading to stabilization of glut...
متن کاملThe Relationship Between Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Depression: Mediating Roles of Executive Functions in Patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and depression with the mediating role of executive functions (EFs) in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The statistical population of this descriptive correlational study included all patients with RRMS who were referred to Tehran neurologists in the summer of 2021 and among them,...
