Pseudodementia and ECT.

Abstract:

:The author presents six cases of pseudodementia of varying degrees of severity that illustrate the difficulty in making purely clinical diagnoses of pseudodementia and demonstrate the usefulness of ECT in this condition in treatment-resistant patients. In addition, issues of cerebral laterality are raised by one case in which the patient paradoxically regressed to a preference for an acquired language (English) while pseudodemented and reverted to her native tongue (Spanish) after remission, with preservation of her ability to speak English.

  • Aberrant Salience, Information Processing, and Dopaminergic Signaling in People at Clinical High Risk for Psychosis.

    abstract::The aberrant salience hypothesis proposes that striatal dopamine dysregulation causes misattribution of salience to irrelevant stimuli leading to psychosis. Recently, new lines of preclinical evidence on information coding by subcortical dopamine coupled with computational models of the brain's ability to predict and ...
