Deficient learning and memory in early and middle phases of multiple sclerosis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Forty-three patients with multiple sclerosis showed disturbances in short-term memory, learning, and delayed recall which were associated with years of active disease (average was 4.5 years), age, presence of flareup, but not steroid/ACTH treatment. Unrecognised memory loss might be prevalent early in the natural history of multiple sclerosis and deserves neuropsychological assessment.

Background: Observing the enhancing plaques in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most valuable diagnostic modalities in confirming the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), its recurrence and for better detection of active disease. Since active lesions discovery can improve designating diffusion in time diagnosis of MS and controlling disease activity, and there is not any definite...
متن کاملThe Role of Middle Septal Ghrelin Receptors in the Effects of Morphine on Memory Consolidation in Passive Avoidance Learning
Introduction: Evidence indicates that morphine impairs memory process. Ghrelin hormone has been linked to learning and memory processes and modulates reward properties of addictive drugs. In this study we examined the role of middle septal ghrelin receptors in the effects of morphine on memory consolidation in passive avoidance learning. Materials & Methods: In this experimental study, 91 ma...

Caffeine, dose dependently can reinforce or deteriorate learning. In previous studies, the effect of glucose on decreasing of amnesia was investigated. In this study, the effect of caffeine on three phases of learning and also probable interference of glucose in mice were examined by using of passive avoidance learning .Male albino mice were examined as follows: 1. test group: a) this group rec...
متن کاملEffect of oral genistein administration in early and late phases of allergic encephalomyelitis
Objective(s):Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an autoimmune disease validated as animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS). Administration of genistein, a phytoestrogenic component of soy, to mice at the onset of EAE is known to attenuate the clinical signs of the disease. The potential effects of genistein on established EAE is less studied. In the current study, we aimed to comp...
