Neuronal oscillations are thought to underlie interactions between distinct brain regions required for normal memory functioning. This study aimed at elucidating the neuronal basis of memory abnormalities in neurodegenerative disorders. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) was used to measure oscillatory brain signals in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease causing progre...

BACKGROUND There is emerging evidence that the increased susceptibility to developing alcohol and substance use disorders in those with a family history of Alcohol Dependence (AD) may be related to structural differences in brain circuits that influence the salience of rewards or modify the efficiency of information processing. Externalizing disorders of childhood including Attention Deficit Hy...

Memory function and learning process are commonly observed impaired among children with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). However, children with Emotional Disorders (ED) too report inability to attend, register and recall the stimuli that eventually result in poor academic performance. The present study aimed to study the nature of impairment in verbal learning and memory function ...

objective(s)previous studies have shown that vitamin b as well as folate supplementation has been implicated in cognitive and neurodegenerative disorders including alzheimer’s and parkinson's diseases. the aim of present study was to evaluate the effects of folic acid on passive avoidance task and motor coordination in healthy adult male rats.materials and methodsanimals were randomly divi...

introduction: patients with schizophrenia characteristically exhibit cognitive deficits. the level of cognitive impairment is found to predict the functional outcome of the illness more strongly than the severity of positive or negative symptoms. the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of ondansetron, a 5-ht3 receptor antagonist as an adjuvant agent in the treatment of chronic schi...
