Changes in neuropsychological test performance after electroconvulsive therapy.

Abstract:

:A group of 231 psychiatric patients were evaluated (with the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery) before and after electroconvulsive therapy. Improvement during the course of therapy was shown in 96% of the measures and significant improvement (p less than 0.05) occurred in 37.5% of the measures, indicating generally improved functioning. The performance of these patients on the pre-ECT testing was generally in the range characteristic of patients with documented brain damage, but the score improved during the course of treatment to the borderline normal level.

  • Impaired declarative memory consolidation during sleep in patients with primary insomnia: Influence of sleep architecture and nocturnal cortisol release.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:A central cognitive function of sleep is to consolidate newly acquired memories for long-term storage. Here, we investigated whether the overnight consolidation of declarative memory in patients with chronic sleep disturbances is impaired, owing to less slow wave sleep (SWS) and an increased cortisol release...
