Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by progressive cognitive decline, with early deficits often preceding motor symptoms. The Loewenstein-Acevedo Scales for Semantic Interference and Learning (LASSI-L) captures many types of in verbal memory including susceptibility to interference. current study aims delineate the progression these across different stages HD. 151 participants (89 HD, 62 healthy controls) were recruited three sites. HD classified into groups using a PIN score TMS: >10...
Semantic intrusion errors on memory tests may represent very early cognitive changes associated with elevated Alzheimer's disease pathology within the brain, including amyloid-β (Aβ). Subscales that measure proactive semantic interference (PSI) and intrusions related to PSI Loewenstein Acevedo Scales of Interference Learning (LASSI-L) have been high levels brain amyloid load, structural MRI in Hispanic non-Hispanic groups. It is presently unknown whether or other measures LASSI-L can...
Background: Diagnosis of manifest Huntington disease (HD) is based primarily on motor symptoms, but premanifest HD (preHD) often associated with subtle cognitive decline. The Loewenstein–Acevedo Scales for Semantic Interference and Learning (LASSI–L) a validated verbal learning test that can be used to detect early Objective: To determine the utility LASSI–L detecting decline in individuals preHD compare results those commonly neuropsychological tests HD. Method: We administered 13 healthy...
Background Cognitive decline in Huntington’s disease (HD) begins early the course, however reported prevalence and severity of cognitive impairment varies based on diagnostic approach. A Movement Disorders Society Task Force recently endorsed use standardized DSM-5-based criteria to diagnose neurocognitive disorder (NCD) disease. Objectives To determine across different stages HD by applying NCD (mild major) participant data from Enroll-HD database. Methods participants were triaged into...
Cognitive decline is an important early sign in pre-motor manifest Huntington's disease (preHD) and characterized by deficits across multiple domains including executive function, psychomotor processing speed, memory retrieval. Prior work suggested that the Loewenstein-Acevedo Scale for Semantic Interference Learning (LASSI-L)-a verbal learning task simultaneously targets these - could capture cognitive changes preHD. The current study aimed to replicate, validate further analyze LASSI-L...
Las diatomeas Actinocyclus normanii , Cyclotella gromerata y Neodelphyneis pelagica fueron trabajadas en el laboratorio de Alimento Vivo la Universidad Córdoba, con fin caracterizar las especies, obtener cepas realizar cultivos experimentales bajo condiciones controladas temperatura (24oC), salinidad (25-30 0/00) aireación. Cultivos a 5 ml 250 realizados dos medios cultivo como tratamiento (F/2 Guillar & Rither, CONWAY) para determinar su efecto sobre productividad. Mediante...
Background: Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder marked by cognitive impairment, movement abnormalities, and behavioral disturbances. The Stroop Color Word Test (SCWT) widely used tool to detect decline in HD. Variations SCWT formats—horizontal (original) vertical (Golden)—may influence performance, given HD’s impact on oculomotor abilities. Objective: This study aimed compare the effectiveness of horizontal Golden formats detecting HD, determine how performance may have...
<h3>Background</h3> Cognitive deficits typically precede motor manifestation in premanifest Huntington's disease (preHD) and can therefore serve as early biomarkers of progression. Subtle cognitive impairments HD have been detected on verbal learning paradigms, however optimal task design has not yet established. <h3>Aims</h3> We assessed impairment preHD by comparing performance two tasks: California Verbal Learning Test II (CVLT-II) the Loewenstein-Acevedo Scales Semantic Interference...
