Objectives: The aim of the study was to test a possible association between Val66Met polymorphism brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene and performance on neurocognitive test, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), in bipolar patients. Methods: Fifty‐four patients were studied, 18 male 36 female, aged 18–72 (mean 46 years). number perseverative errors (WCST‐P), non‐perseverative (WCST‐NP), completed corrected categories (WCST‐CC), conceptual level responses (WCST‐%CONC) set first...
Abstract The measures of prefrontal cognition have been used as endophenotype in molecular‐genetic studies. Brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has implicated cognitive functions and the pathogenesis major psychoses. This study investigates relationship between Val66Met polymorphisms BDNF gene function 129 patients with schizophrenia 111 bipolar mood disorder. Cognitive tests included Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), such domains number perseverative errors, non‐perseverative...
The risk of professional burnout is constituted by job-related as well individual factors. latter involve affective temperament, which influences the perception stress. aim present study was to assess level job stress and burnout, relationships between these variables, in public servants nurses.100 civil 100 nurses were enrolled study.

The aim this study was to compare the two models, Nordic Walking (NW) Pilates, postmenopausal women.The comprised 196 overweight or obese women: 20 were advised maintain their previous level activity (control group) whereas others started either an NW program (n = 88) a Pilates 88). Blood collected twice for testing: before commenced after it had ended.Of women who enrolled in study, 147 (75%) completed...
Metabolic-bariatric surgery (MBS) transcends weight loss and offers wide-ranging health benefits, including positive effects on brain function. However, the mechanisms behind these remain unclear, particularly in context of significant postoperative changes inflammatory profile characteristic MBS. Understanding how inflammation influences function can enhance our decision-making patient eligibility for MBS create new opportunities to improve outcomes this popular treatment. To identify...

This study compared the performances of matched schizophrenia patients with or without obsessive-compulsive (OC) symptoms, disorder (OCD), and control subjects on selected frontal lobe tests. Schizophrenic OC were most impaired; OCD least, while schizophrenic scored between these two groups.
The aim of this study was to assess cognitive functions in 30 non-depressed patients with mild impairment (MCI), compared age-, gender- and education-matched acute depressive episode, healthy subjects. Neuropsychological assessment included the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), memory tests as well Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) N-back test. Patients MCI obtained significantly worse results on all domains WCST test both depressed Depressed showed performance than controls most...
Working memory is an ability to keep information in short-term and manipulate them “on line”. also involved complex frontal executive functions. The role of dopaminergic system modulating working processes prefrontal cortex well established. Also the serotoninergic receptors postulated. purpose this study was assess association between polymorphisms (DRD1, DRD3, DRD4, COMT) (SERT – serotonin transporter, 5HT2A, 5HT2C) genes’ performance on WCST 200 volunteers from Polish population. We found...
