Verbal memory functioning in recurrent depression during partial remission and remission-Brief report
The aim of the present study was to investigate verbal memory performance in a group of patients with remitted and partial remitted major depressive disorder. Thirty-one patients and 31 healthy matched controls were included in the study. Results from the California Verbal Learning Test show intact verbal memory performance in the patient group regarding learning, recall and recognition. Howeve...
متن کاملMicrostructural white matter abnormalities and remission of geriatric depression.
OBJECTIVE White matter abnormalities may interfere with limbic cortical balance and lead to chronic depressive syndromes. The authors used diffusion tensor imaging to test the hypothesis that depressed elders who fail to achieve remission have microstructural white matter abnormalities in cortico-striato-limbic networks implicated in geriatric depression. METHOD The subjects were nondemented ...
متن کاملSeverity of Depression Predicts Remission Rates Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
BACKGROUND Multiple factors likely impact response and remission rates in the treatment of depression with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). Notably, the role of symptom severity in outcomes with rTMS is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS This study investigated the predictors of achieving remission in patients suffering from depression who receive ≥3 rTMS treatments p...
متن کاملSerotonin transporter polymorphisms, microstructural white matter abnormalities and remission of geriatric depression.
OBJECTIVE This study compared microstructural abnormalities in depressed elders and controls and studied the association of the serotonin transporter gene status to white matter abnormalities and to remission of depression. METHODS The subjects were Caucasians with non-psychotic major depression and normal elders. Depressed subjects received escitalopram 10 mg daily for 12 weeks. Remission wa...
متن کاملLong-term associative learning predicts verbal short-term memory performance
Studies using tests such as digit span and nonword repetition have implicated short-term memory across a range of developmental domains. Such tests ostensibly assess specialized processes for the short-term manipulation and maintenance of information that are often argued to enable long-term learning. However, there is considerable evidence for an influence of long-term linguistic learning on p...
