Basic forms of cognitive plasticity extended into the oldest-old: retest learning, age, and cognitive functioning.
To address the question of whether cognitive plasticity varies by age and level of cognitive functioning in the older population, the authors used a self-guided retest paradigm to assess the basic forms of plasticity of 34 young-olds (M=74.4 years, range=70-79) and 34 oldest-olds (M=84.0 years, range=80-91), with half in each age group screened for high or low (midrange) level of cognitive func...
متن کاملCOGNITIVE ASSESSMENT OF PAEDIATRIC NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASE by JAMES
Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are a large class of heterogeneous genetic disorders caused by dysfunction within a single pathway of intermediary metabolism. In many of these diseases, the dysfunction of metabolic enzymes leads to the accumulation of toxic metabolites which disrupts the normal development of the central nervous system. With the advent of treatments that positively influenc...

متن کاملTest-retest, retest, and retest: Growth curve models of repeat testing with Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT).
Computerized neuropsychological testing has become an important tool in the identification and management of sports-related concussions; however, the psychometric effect of repeat testing has not been studied extensively beyond test-retest statistics. The current study analyzed data from Division I collegiate athletes who completed Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImP...
متن کاملTREM2 and neurodegenerative disease.
To the Editor: Guerreiro et al.1 and Jonsson et al.2 (Jan. 10 issue) report an association between the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs75932628 in the gene encoding the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) (predicting an R47H substitution) and Alzheimer’s disease in persons of European ancestry. We and other members of the Alzheimer’s Disease Genetics Consortium assem...
